The problem here was numerical precision: The code calculates the angle between
sun and view direction, and the usual acos(dot(a, b)) approach for that has
poor numerical performance for almost parallel angles.
As a result, the generally tiny difference between floating point computation
between CPU and GPU was enough to make the sun vanish at different radii,
causing different results.
The new version fixes the difference by making the computation much more robust
on both platforms.

The kernel did not work correctly when these were disabled anyway. The
optimized BVH traversal for the no instances case was also only used on
the CPU, so no longer makes sense to keep.

This commit adds a new model to the Sky Texture node, which is based on a
method by Nishita et al. and works by basically simulating volumetric
scattering in the atmosphere.
By making some approximations (such as only considering single scattering),
we get a fairly simple and fast simulation code that takes into account
Rayleigh and Mie scattering as well as Ozone absorption.
This code is used to precompute a 512x128 texture which is then looked up
during render time, and is fast enough to allow real-time tweaking in the
viewport.
Due to the nature of the simulation, it exposes several parameters that
allow for lots of flexibility in choosing the look and matching real-world
conditions (such as Air/Dust/Ozone density and altitude).
Additionally, the same volumetric approach can be used to compute absorption
of the direct sunlight, so the model also supports adding direct sunlight.
This makes it significantly easier to set up Sun+Sky illumination where
the direction, intensity and color of the sun actually matches the sky.
In order to support properly sampling the direct sun component, the commit
also adds logic for sampling a specific area to the kernel light sampling
code. This is combined with portal and background map sampling using MIS.
This sampling logic works for the common case of having one Sky texture
going into the Background shader, but if a custom input to the Vector
node is used or if there are multiple Sky textures, it falls back to using
only background map sampling (while automatically setting the resolution to
4096x2048 if auto resolution is used).

Since the sampling and evaluation functions handle both cases anyways,
there's not really a point for keeping the distinction in the kernel,
so we might as well cut down the number of CLOSURE_BSDF_MICROFACETs a bit.

Currently in fractal_noise functions, each subsequent octave doubles the
frequency and reduces the amplitude by half. This patch introduces Roughness
input to Noise and Wave nodes. This multiplier determines how quickly the
amplitudes of the subsequent octaves decrease.
Value of 0.5 will be the default, generating identical noise we had before.
Values above 0.5 will increase influence of each octave resulting in more
"rough" noise, most interesting pattern changes happen there. Values below
0.5 will result in more "smooth" noise.

This patch adds an AVX implementation of Perlin noise in Cycles.
An avxi type was also added as a utility based on the respective
type in Intel Embree.
Only 3D and 4D noise were implemented, there is no benefit for
utilizing AVX in 1D and 2D noise. The SSE trilinear interpolation
function was used in the AVX implementation because there is no
benefit from using AVX in interpolating the last three dimensions.

Similar to the Microfacet Closures, the Principled BSDF Sheen closure is
added at a high weight but typically results in fairly low values.
Therefore, the default weight is a bad indicator of importance.
The fix here is the same as it was back then for Microfacets:
Compute an average weight using the normal as the half-vector
and use it to scale down the sample weight and the albedo channel.
In addition to drastically improving denoising of materials with
sheen when using the new Denoising node, this also can reduce noise
on such materials considerably.

This patch contains the work that I did during my week at the Code Quest - adding support for tiled images to Blender.
With this patch, images now contain a list of tiles. By default, this just contains one tile, but if the source type is set to Tiled, the user can add additional tiles. When acquiring an ImBuf, the tile to be loaded is specified in the ImageUser.
Therefore, code that is not yet aware of tiles will just access the default tile as usual.
The filenames of the additional tiles are derived from the original filename according to the UDIM naming scheme - the filename contains an index that is calculated as (1001 + 10*<y coordinate of the tile> + <x coordinate of the tile>), where the x coordinate never goes above 9.
Internally, the various tiles are stored in a cache just like sequences. When acquired for the first time, the code will try to load the corresponding file from disk. Alternatively, a new operator can be used to initialize the tile similar to the New Image operator.
The following features are supported so far:
- Automatic detection and loading of all tiles when opening the first tile (1001)
- Saving all tiles
- Adding and removing tiles
- Filling tiles with generated images
- Drawing all tiles in the Image Editor
- Viewing a tiled grid even if no image is selected
- Rendering tiled images in Eevee
- Rendering tiled images in Cycles (in SVM mode)
- Automatically skipping loading of unused tiles in Cycles
- 2D texture painting (also across tiles)
- 3D texture painting (also across tiles, only limitation: individual faces can not cross tile borders)
- Assigning custom labels to individual tiles (drawn in the Image Editor instead of the ID)
- Different resolutions between tiles
There still are some missing features that will be added later (see T72390):
- Workbench engine support
- Packing/Unpacking support
- Baking support
- Cycles OSL support
- many other Blender features that rely on images
Thanks to Brecht for the review and to all who tested the intermediate versions!

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.

This adds compaction support for OptiX acceleration structures, which reduces the device memory footprint in a post step after building. Depending on the scene this can reduce the amount of used device memory quite a bit and even improve performance (smaller acceleration structure improves cache usage). It's only enabled for background renders to make acceleration structure builds fast in viewport.
Also fixes a bug in the memory management for OptiX acceleration structures: These were held in a dynamic vector of 'device_memory' instances and used the mem_alloc/mem_free functions. However, those keep track of memory instances in the 'cuda_mem_map' via pointers to 'device_memory' (which works fine everywhere else since those are never copied/moved). But in the case of the vector, it may decide to reallocate at some point, which invalidates those pointers and would result in some nasty accesses to invalid memory. So it is not actually safe to move a 'device_memory' object and therefore this removes the move operator overloads again.

Previously Noise and Wave texture nodes would use noise functions within a [0,1]
range for distortion effects. We either add or subtract noise from coordinates,
never do both at same time. This led to the texture drastically shifting on the
diagonal axis of a plane / cube. This behavior makes the Distortion input hard
to control or animate. Capabilities of driving it with other texture are also
limited, diagonal shifting is very apparent.
This was fixed by offsetting the noise function to a signed range and making it
zero-centered. This way noise is uniformly added and subtracted from coordinates.
Texture pattern sticks to main coordinates which makes it way easier to control.
This change is not strictly backwards compatible, there is versioning to ensure
the scale of the distortion remains similar, but the particular pattern can be
a little different.

When creating shaders and using maths functions it is expected that Blender should match functions in other DCC applications, game engines and shading languages such as GLSL and OSL.
This patch adds missing functions to the Blender maths node.
Ideally, it would be nice to have these functions available to vectors too but that is not part of this patch.
This patch adds the following functions trunc, snap, wrap, compare, pingpong, sign, radians, degrees, cosh, sinh, tanh, exp, smoothmin and inversesqrt.
Sign function is based on GLSL and OSL functions and returns zero when x == 0.

average fresnel
The Principled BSDF uses Microfacet closures that include a fresnel term,
which are a special case since their weight tends to be near white even
if their average contribution is fairly low.
The sample weight is scaled by the average fresnel weight to account for
this, but the denoising albedo still used the unscaled weight.
This was fine for the original denoiser, but apparently OIDN can't handle
the resulting albedo pass well. Therefore, this commit adds the described
scaling to the albedo pass contribution as well.
This problem was described in T69770.
