2017-03-31	Cycles: Solve threading conflict in shader synchronization	Sergey Sharybin
	Update tag might access links (when checking for attributes) and the links might be in the middle of rebuild in simplification logic.
2017-03-29	Cycles: Make all #include statements relative to cycles source directory	Sergey Sharybin
	The idea is to make include statements more explicit and obvious where the file is coming from, additionally reducing chance of wrong header being picked up. For example, it was not obvious whether bvh.h was refferring to builder or traversal, whenter node.h is a generic graph node or a shader node and cases like that. Surely this might look obvious for the active developers, but after some time of not touching the code it becomes less obvious where file is coming from. This was briefly mentioned in T50824 and seems @brecht is fine with such explicitness, but need to agree with all active developers before committing this. Please note that this patch is lacking changes related on GPU/OpenCL support. This will be solved if/when we all agree this is a good idea to move forward.

2017-03-27	Cycles UI: Avoid abreviation for Hair Extension.	Thomas Dinges
	Since 2.5x we should try to avoid such abreviations in the UI, except for common terms like Min / Max as much as possible.
2017-03-27	Cycles: Move Shadow Catcher UI option next to Ray Visibility.	Thomas Dinges
	Previously it was beneath the Performance UI label, which was incorrect. It's better suited next to Ray Visibility.
2017-03-27	Cycles: First implementation of shadow catcher	Sergey Sharybin
	It uses an idea of accumulating all possible light reachable across the light path (without taking shadow blocked into account) and accumulating total shaded light across the path. Dividing second figure by first one seems to be giving good estimate of the shadow. In fact, to my knowledge, it's something really similar to what is happening in the denoising branch, so we are aligned here which is good. The workflow is following: - Create an object which matches real-life object on which shadow is to be catched. - Create approximate similar material on that object. This is needed to make indirect light properly affecting CG objects in the scene. - Mark object as Shadow Catcher in the Object properties. Ideally, after doing that it will be possible to render the image and simply alpha-over it on top of real footage.
2017-03-27	Cycles: Optimize shaders earlier to skip unneccessary attributes for ↵	Lukas Stockner
	noninteractive rendering Before, Cycles would first sync the shader exactly as shown in the UI, then determine and sync the used attributes and later optimize the shader. Therefore, even completely unconnected nodes would cause unneccessary attributes to be synced. The reason for this is to avoid frequent resyncs when editing shaders interactively, but it can still be avoided for noninteractive renders - which is what this commit does.

2017-03-20	Cycles: Update remaining time once per second without waiting for a tile change	Lukas Stockner
	Previously, the code would only update the status string if the main status changed. However, the main status did not include the remaining time, and therefore it wasn't updated until the amount of rendered tiles (which is part of the main status) changed. This commit therefore makes the BlenderSession remember the time of the last status update and forces a status update if the last one was more than a second ago.

2017-03-15	Cycles: Allow rendering a range of resumable chunks	Sergey Sharybin
	The range is controlled using the following command line arguments: --cycles-resumable-start-chunk --cycles-resumable-end-chunk Those are 1-based index of range for rendering.

2017-03-09	Cycles: add single program debug option for split kernel	Hristo Gueorguiev
	Single program generally compiles kernels faster (2-3 times), loads faster, takes less drive space (2-3 times), and reduces the number of cached kernels.

2017-02-22	Cycles: Fix shading with autosmooth and custom normals	Sergey Sharybin
	New logic of split_faces was leaving mesh in a proper state from Blender's point of view, but Cycles wanted loop normals to be "flushed" to vertex normals. Now we do such a flush from Cycles side again, so we don't leave bad meshes behind. Thanks Bastien for assistance here!
2017-02-20	Fix T50718: Regression: Split Normals Render Problem with Cycles	Sergey Sharybin
	The issue seems to be caused by vertex normal being re-calculated to something else than loop normal, which also caused wrong loop normals after re-calculation. For now issue is solved by preserving CD_NORMAL for loops after split_faces() is finished, so render engine can access original proper value.
2017-02-16	Faces split: Don't leave CD_NORMAL after split	Sergey Sharybin
	This is supposed to be a temporary layer. If someone needs loop normals after split it should explicitly ask for that.

2017-02-13	Cycles: Use Cycles-side mesh instead of C++ RNA	Sergey Sharybin
	Those are now matching and it's faster to skip C++ RNA to calculate pointiness.
2017-02-12	Cycles: Don't use built-in API for image sequences in preview mode	Sergey Sharybin

2017-01-25	Fix T49405: Crash when baking with adaptive subdivision	Mai Lavelle
	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.

2017-01-22	Fix T50491: Cycles UI breaks when pushing F8.	Bastien Montagne
	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).
2017-01-20	Cycles: Add option to split triangle motion primitives by time steps	Sergey Sharybin
	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.
2017-01-20	Cycles: Add option to split curve motion primitives by time steps	Sergey Sharybin
	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.
