The state template iteration had difficult time dealing with 0-sized
arrays, causing iteration for until integer overflows.
|
|
The overscan change from D12599 lacked proper handling of window
when slicing buffer for multiple devices.

Make volume stack allocated conditionally, potentially based on the
actual nested level of objects in the scene.
Currently the nested level is estimated by number of volume objects.
This is a non-expensive check which is probably enough in practice
to get almost perfect memory usage and performance.
The conditional allocation is a bit tricky.
For the CPU we declare and define maximum possible volume stack,
because there are only that many integrator states on the CPU.
On the GPU we declare outer SoA to have all volume stack elements,
but only allocate actually needed ones. The actually used volume
stack size is passed as a pre-processor, which seems to be easiest
and fastest for the GPU state copy.
There seems to be no speed regression in the demo files on RTX6000.
Note that scenes with high nested level of volume will now be slower
but correct.

Implement an overscan support for tiles, so that adaptive sampling can
rely on the pixels neighbourhood.

Currently was only used for logging, but better to fix the size so
that it matches reality.
The issue was caused by decoupling number of shadow intersections
and using much higher number for CPU. This caused the total state
on GPU to be logged as 10s of gigabytes instead of 100s of megabytes.

This previously only work for CPU rendering, and isn't that practical to get
working in the new architecture.

* Add OutputDriver, replacing function callbacks in Session.
* Add PathTraceTile, replacing tile access methods in Session.
* Add more detailed comments about how this driver should be implemented.
* Add OIIOOutputDriver for Cycles standalone to output an image.

* Split GPUDisplay into two classes. PathTraceDisplay to implement the Cycles side,
and DisplayDriver to implement the host application side. The DisplayDriver is now
a fully abstract base class, embedded in the PathTraceDisplay.
* Move copy_pixels_to_texture implementation out of the host side into the Cycles side,
since it can be implemented in terms of the texture buffer mapping.
* Move definition of DeviceGraphicsInteropDestination into display driver header, so
that we do not need to expose private device headers in the public API.
* Add more detailed comments about how the DisplayDriver should be implemented.
The "driver" terminology might not be obvious, but is also used in other renderers.

This struct is much bigger now, and does not actually need to be fully zero
initialized.
|
|
So we can do fewer intersection calls, only on the GPU do we need to save
memory and do this in small steps.

Noticed while looking into flickering issues in viewport.
Doesn't seem to solve the flicker issue for me, but is something
what is supposed to be happening anyway.

NOTE: this feature is not ready for user testing, and not yet enabled in daily
builds. It is being merged now for easier collaboration on development.
HIP is a heterogenous compute interface allowing C++ code to be executed on
GPUs similar to CUDA. It is intended to bring back AMD GPU rendering support
on Windows and Linux.
https://github.com/ROCm-Developer-Tools/HIP.
As of the time of writing, it should compile and run on Linux with existing
HIP compilers and driver runtimes. Publicly available compilers and drivers
for Windows will come later.
See task T91571 for more details on the current status and work remaining
to be done.

Only do denoising on the full-frame result. Saves render time.
Can re-consider in the future when/if we'll want to support
denoising during rendering (similar to viewport) to allow artists
to stop rendering when they see image to be good enough. Until
there is a design for that workflow stick to a more time efficient
rendering.

Expose them to the interface, and stop rendering as soon as possible.

Protect against integer overflow.

Samples count pass is normalized to the overall number of samples.
This means that we need to store actual value of the samples in the
tile buffer file.
A bit annoying to pull all those settings to BufferParams and need
to find a more generic solution, but for now this is easiest and a
quickest solution.

This includes much improved GPU rendering performance, viewport interactivity,
new shadow catcher, revamped sampling settings, subsurface scattering anisotropy,
new GPU volume sampling, improved PMJ sampling pattern, and more.
Some features have also been removed or changed, breaking backwards compatibility.
Including the removal of the OpenCL backend, for which alternatives are under
development.

all the changes since intermediate changes would often fail building or tests.
