Custom render passes are added in the Shader AOVs panel in the view layer
settings, with a name and data type. In shader nodes, an AOV Output node
is then used to output either a value or color to the pass.
Arbitrary names can be used for these passes, as long as they don't conflict
with built-in passes that are enabled. The AOV Output node can be used in both
material and world shader nodes.
Implemented by Lukas, with tweaks by Brecht.

Now, CUDA architectures of type compute_xx are supported. This allows for quicker builds,

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.

This patch rewrites the Mapping node to support dynamic inputs. The
Max and Min options have been removed. They can be added as Min and
Max Vector Math nodes manually.
Texture nodes still use the old matrix-based mapping. A new SVM node
`NODE_TEXTURE_MAPPING` has been added to preserve this functionality.
Similarly, in GLSL, a `mapping_mat4` function has been added.

This patch extends perlin noise to operate in 1D, 2D, 3D, and 4D
space. The noise code has also been refactored to be more readable.
The Color output and distortion patterns changed, so this patch
breaks backward compatibility. This is due to the fact that we
now use random offsets as noise seeds, as opposed to swizzling
and constants offsets.

We can add more fine grained checks for when these flags are supported so
that adding asan flags manually still has all the workarounds, but for now
compiling succesfully is more important.

It's extremely slow to compile and run, so just disable it unless
WITH_CYCLES_KERNEL_ASAN is manually enabled. For Clang it's always
enabled since that appears to work ok.
This also limits the -fno-sanitize=vptr flag to the Cycles kernel, as it
was added specifically to work around an issue there.

This version fixes various bugs, and there is no need anymore to use both
9.1 and 10.0 for different cards.
There is a bug related to WITH_CYCLES_CUBIN_COMPILER and bump mapping in the

Cycles OpenCL: Split baking kernels in own program
Fix T61463. Before this patch baking was part of the base kernels. There
are 3 baking kernels that and all 3 uses shader evaluation. Only for one
of these kernels the functionality was wrapped in the __NO_BAKING__
compile directive.
When you start baking this leads to long compile times. By separating
in individual programs will reduce the compile times.
Also wrapped all baking kernels with __NO_BAKING__ to reduce the
compilation times.

This patch reduced compilation time as the split kernels and base
kernels are compiled in parallel. In cycles debug mode (256) you can set
unmark the opencl single program file, what reduces the compilation time
even further (bmw 17 seconds, barbershop 53 seconds).

various parts of the CPU kernel
This commit adds a sample-based profiler that runs during CPU rendering and collects statistics on time spent in different parts of the kernel (ray intersection, shader evaluation etc.) as well as time spent per material and object.
The results are currently not exposed in the user interface or per Python yet, to see the stats on the console pass the "--cycles-print-stats" argument to Cycles (e.g. "./blender -- --cycles-print-stats").
Unfortunately, there is no clear way to extend this functionality to CUDA or OpenCL, so it is CPU-only for now.

Note that this is turned off by default and must be enabled at build time with the CMake WITH_CYCLES_EMBREE flag.
Embree must be built as a static library with ray masking turned on, the `make deps` scripts have been updated accordingly.
There, Embree is off by default too and must be enabled with the WITH_EMBREE flag.
Using Embree allows for much faster rendering of deformation motion blur while reducing the memory footprint.
TODO: GPU implementation, deduplication of data, leveraging more of Embrees features (e.g. tessellation cache).

This allows for extra output passes that encode automatic object and material masks
for the entire scene. It is an implementation of the Cryptomatte standard as
introduced by Psyop. A good future extension would be to add a manifest to the
export and to do plenty of testing to ensure that it is fully compatible with other
renderers and compositing programs that use Cryptomatte.
Internally, it adds the ability for Cycles to have several passes of the same type
that are distinguished by their name.

Note that BVH8 is disabled when using OSL, this is because OSL

hence always considers BVH3 is used.

Building the CUDA kernels takes quite a bit of memory, and when building all of
them the combined usage can be too much on some systems (especially VMs).
Therefore, this patch adds an option to force the build system to build them
sequentially by making each build step depend on the previous kernel.

Textures in 16 bit integer format are sometimes used for displacement, bump and normal maps and can be exported by tools like Substance Painter. Without this patch, Cycles would promote those textures to single precision floating point, causing them to take up twice as much memory as needed.

This patch adds support for IES files, a file format that is commonly used to store the directional intensity distribution of light sources.
The new IES node is supposed to be plugged into the Strength input of the Emission node of the lamp.
Since people generating IES files do not really seem to care about the standard, the parser is flexible enough to accept all test files I have tried.
Some common weirdnesses are distributing values over multiple lines that should go into one line, using commas instead of spaces as delimiters and adding various useless stuff at the end of the file.
The user interface of the node is similar to the script node, the user can either select an internal Text or load a file.
Internally, IES files are handled similar to Image textures: They are stored in slots by the LightManager and each unique IES is assigned to one slot.
The local coordinate system of the lamp is used, so that the direction of the light can be changed. For UI reasons, it's usually best to add an area light,
rotate it and then change its type, since especially the point light does not immediately show its local coordinate system in the viewport.

Previously, the NLM kernels would be launched once per offset with one thread per pixel.
However, with the smaller tile sizes that are now feasible, there wasn't enough work to fully occupy GPUs which results in a significant slowdown.
Therefore, the kernels are now launched in a single call that handles all offsets at once.
This has two downsides: Memory accesses to accumulating buffers are now atomic, and more importantly, the temporary memory now has to be allocated for every shift at once, increasing the required memory.
On the other hand, of course, the smaller tiles significantly reduce the size of the memory.
The main bottleneck right now is the construction of the transformation - there is nothing to be parallelized there, one thread per pixel is the maximum.
I tried to parallelize the SVD implementation by storing the matrix in shared memory and launching one block per pixel, but that wasn't really going anywhere.
To make the new code somewhat readable, the handling of rectangular regions was cleaned up a bit and commented, it should be easier to understand what's going on now.
Also, some variables have been renamed to make the difference between buffer width and stride more apparent, in addition to some general style cleanup.

The algorithm averages normals from nearby surfaces. It uses the same
sampling strategy as BSSRDFs, casting rays along the normal and two
orthogonal axes, and combining the samples with MIS.
The main concern here is that we are introducing raytracing inside
shader evaluation, which could be quite bad for GPU performance and
stack memory usage. In practice it doesn't seem so bad though.
Note that using this feature can easily slow down renders 20%, and
that if you care about performance then it's better to use a bevel
modifier. Mainly this is useful for baking, and for cases where the
mesh topology makes it difficult for the bevel modifier to work well.
