running out of memory
|
|
This was fixed ages ago for the interface case but not for the
command line. The thing here is that currently external engines
are relying on reports system to indicate that error happened
so suppressing reports storage in the background mode prevented
render pipeline from detecting errors happened.
This is all weak and i don't like it, but this is better than
delivering black frames from the farm.

Was a recent update of UV precision.

There was fully wrong logic in comparison: was actually accessing memory
past the array boundary. Run test manually and the figure seems correct
to me now.
Spotted by @LazyDodo, thanks!

Was missing relations for the set scenes.
Perhaps not ideal solution, but should be good enough for now.

Don't use built-in API for image sequences since it's not really
finished in RNA API.
Fixes issue reported in T50616.

The issue was caused by pointiness being calculated after
faces split now. Ported all fixes we did here.
Should be safe, pointiness is used all over the barbershop.

viewport.
Caused by rBd6cf28c5e15739f864fbf04614c2a50708b4b152, which forgot to
update the GLSL code for the "Light Path" node.

This commit contains all commits required to get proper hair rendering
with BVH motion steps enabled.
The issue here was mainly coming from minimal pixel width feature
which is quite commonly enabled in production shots.
This feature will use some probabilistic heuristic in the curve
intersection function to check whether we need to return intersection
or not. This probability is calculated for every intersection check.
Now, when we use multiple BVH nodes for curve primitives we increase
probability of that primitive to be considered a good intersection
for us. This is similar to increasing minimal width of curve.
What is worst here is that change in the intersection probability
fully depends on exact layout of BVH, meaning probability might
change differently depending on a view angle, the way how builder
binned the primitives and such. This makes it impossible to do
simple check like dividing probability by number of BVH steps.
Other solution might have been to split BVH into fully independent
trees, but that will increase memory usage of all the static
objects in the scenes, which is also not something desirable.
For now used most simple but robust approach: store BVH primitives
time and test it in curve intersection functions. This solves the
regression, but has two downsides:
- Uses more memory.
which isn't surprising, and ANY solution to this problem will
use more memory.
What we still have to do is to avoid this memory increase for
cases when we don't use BVH motion steps.
- Reduces number of maximum available textures on pre-kepler cards.
There is not much we can do here, hardware gets old but we need
to move forward on more modern hardware..

Fixes for clamp-omp, fewer shared variables, fix some cases of threads writing
to the same memory location. Issue found by Jens Verwiebe, who reports 30%
speedup with 16 core CPU, when using this with a recent clang-omp version.

There are some changes in OIIO includes so now need to do some
things differently.

Blenders baking system currently doesn't support the topology used by
adaptive subdivision and primitive ids will be wrong or out of range
leading to crashes. Updating the baking system to support other
topologies would be a bit involved, so for now we simply disable
subdivision while baking to avoid crashes.

No user visible changes, it was a typo in the name of the class.

Cycles add-on did not actually support reloading correctly.
When you want to correctly reload sub-modules (i.e. modules of an add-on
which is a package), you need to use importlib, a mere import will do
nothing with already loaded modules (RNA classes are sort of
pre-registered when they are evaluated, through the meta-class system).

This way we can stop traversing BVH node early on.
Gives about 2-2.5x times render time improvement with 3 BVH steps.
Hopefully this gives no measurable performance loss for scenes with
single BVH step.
Traversal is currently only implemented for QBVH, meaning old CPUs
and GPU do not benefit from this change.

Similar to the previous commit, the statistics goes as:
BVH Steps Render time (sec) Memory usage (MB)
0 46 260
1 27 373
2 18 598
3 15 826
Scene used for the tests is the agent's body from one of the barber
shop scenes (no textures or anything, just a diffuse material).
Once again this is limited to regular (non-spatial split) BVH,
Support of spatial split to this feature will come later.
|

The idea is to create several smaller BVH nodes for each of the motion
curve primitives. This acts as a forced spatial split for the single
primitive.
This gives up render time speedup of motion blurred hair in the cost
of extra memory usage. The numbers goes as:
BVH Steps Render time (sec) Memory usage (MB)
0 258 191
1 123 278
2 69 453
3 43 627
Scene used for the tests is the agent's hair from one of the barber
shop scenes.
Currently it's only limited to scenes without spatial split enabled,
since the spatial split builder requires some changes to work properly
with motion steps coordinates.
|
|
Also fixed some issues with motion keys calculation:
- Clamp lower and upper limits of curves so we can safely call those
functions for the very first and very last curve segment.
- Fixed wrong indexing for the curve radius array.
- Fixed wrong motion attribute offset calculation.

Mimics how regular triangles are working and makes it more clear where
the stuff is located in the kernel.
Needed to have some forward declarations because of the current placement
of things in the kernel.
