2020-06-24	Cycles: add denoising settings to the render properties	Brecht Van Lommel
	Enabling render and viewport denoising is now both done from the render properties. View layers still can individually be enabled/disabled for denoising and have their own denoising parameters. Note that the denoising engine also affects how denoising data passes are output even if no denoising happens on the render itself, to make the passes compatible with the engine. This includes internal refactoring for how denoising parameters are passed along, trying to avoid code duplication and unclear naming. Ref T76259
2020-06-10	Cycles: Improve OptiX viewport denoising performance with CUDA rendering	Patrick Mours
	With this patch Cycles recognizing when a logical OptiX and CUDA device represent the same physical GPU and attempts to eliminate unnecessary tile copies for viewport rendering if that is the case for all active devices. In addition, denoising is now no longer performed on the first available OptiX device only, but instead it will try to match CUDA and OptiX rendering/denoising devices exactly to maximize utilization.

2020-06-08	Cycles: Add support for P2P memory distribution (e.g. via NVLink)	Patrick Mours
	This change modifies the multi-device implementation to support memory distribution across devices, to reduce the overall memory footprint of large scenes and allow scenes to fit entirely into combined GPU memory that previously had to fall back to host memory.

2020-02-24	Fix unnecessary Cycles OptiX kernel loading	Patrick Mours
	With the OptiX viewport denoiser active, an OptiX device was added to the device list even when rendering and denoising on different devices (e.g. CPU or CUDA) in background rendering. This fixes it, so the OptiX device is only added when actually needed, as in only when OptiX denoising is actually active in background rendering.
2020-02-11	Cycles: Add support for denoising in the viewport	Patrick Mours
	The OptiX denoiser can be a great help when rendering in the viewport, since it is really fast and needs few samples to produce convincing results. This patch therefore adds support for using any Cycles denoiser in the viewport also (but only the OptiX one is selectable because the NLM one is too slow to be usable currently). It also adds support for denoising on a different device than rendering (so one can e.g. render with the CPU but denoise with OptiX).

2019-09-13	Cycles: add Optix device backend	Patrick Mours
	This uses hardware-accelerated raytracing on NVIDIA RTX graphics cards. It is still currently experimental. Most features are supported, but a few are still missing like baking, branched path tracing and using CPU memory. https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Reference/Release_Notes/2.81/Cycles#NVIDIA_RTX For building with Optix support, the Optix SDK must be installed.
