* Space: volume density and step size in object or world space
* Step Size: override automatic step size
* Clipping: values below this are ignored for tighter volume bounds
The last two are Cycles only currently.

The UDIM commit accidentally removed a check that skipped Image updates
if the image was managed by OSL.
|

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!

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.

For building with Optix support, the Optix SDK must be installed. See here for

This patch adds a new Vertex Color node. The node also returns the alpha
of the vertex color layer as an output.

This patch stitches the vertices along patch edges so that cracks can
no longer form when applying subdivision or displacement a mesh.
Subpatches are now formed in a way that ensures vertex indices along
subpatch edges are equal for adjacent subpatches. A mapping of vertices
along patch edges is built to preform stitching. Overall performance is
roughly the same, some gains were made in splitting, but some was lost
in stitching.
This fixes:
- T49049 (cracks between patches from material and uv seams)
- T49048 (discontinuous normals with true displacement)

Float2 are now a new type for attributes in Cycles. Before, the choices
for attribute storage were float and float3, the latter padded to
float4. This meant that UV maps were inflated to twice the size
necessary.

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).

Mainly useful for debugging. Previously, when AVX2 was disabled
in the debug panel but BVH layout was kept on BVH8 nothing was
rendered.
Needed to make it so supported BVH layout mask for devices is
queried in "dynamic", so it is possible to use DebugFlags there.

Gathers information about object geometry and textures. Very basic at
this moment, but need to start somewhere.
Things which needs to be included still:
- "Runtime" information, like BVH. While it is not directly controllable
by artists, it's still important to know.
- Device array sizes. Again, not under artists control, but is added to
the overall size.
- Memory peak at different synchronization stages.
At this point it simply prints info to the stdout after F12 is done,
need better control over that too.

This save a little memory and copying in the kernel by storing only a 4x3
matrix instead of a 4x4 matrix. We already did this in a few places, and
those don't need to be special exceptions anymore now.

around the volume.
We generate a tight mesh around the active voxels of the volume in order
to effectively skip empty space, and start volume ray marching as close
to interesting volume data as possible. See code comments for details on
how the mesh generation algorithm works.
This gives up to 2x speedups in some scenes.

This was disabled to avoid updating the geometry every time when the
material includes displacement, because there was no way to distinguish
between surface shader and displacement updates.
As a solution, we now compute an MD5 hash of the nodes linked to the
displacement socket, and only update the mesh if that changes.

This was we can introduce other types of BVH, for example, wider ones, without
causing too much mess around boolean flags.
Thoughs:
- Ideally device info should probably return bitflag of what BVH types it
supports.
It is possible to implement based on simple logic in device/ and mesh.cpp,
rest of the changes will stay the same.
- Not happy with workarounds in util_debug and duplicated enum in kernel.
Maybe enbum should be stores in kernel, but then it's kind of weird to include
kernel types from utils. Soudns some cyclkic dependency.

* Remove tex_* and pixels_* functions, replace by mem_*.
* Add MEM_TEXTURE and MEM_PIXELS as memory types recognized by devices.
* No longer create device_memory and call mem_* directly, always go
through device_only_memory, device_vector and device_pixels.

This is fully unpredictable for artists when one damaged object makes the whole
scene to render incorrectly. This involves two main changes:
- It is not enough to check triangle bounds to be valid when building BVH.
This is because triangle might have some finite vertices and some non-finite.
- We shouldn't add non-finite triangle area to the overall area for MIS.

Image textures were being packed into a single buffer for OpenCL, which
limited the amount of memory available for images to the size of one
buffer (usually 4gb on AMD hardware). By packing textures into multiple
buffers that limit is removed, while simultaneously reducing the number
of buffers that need to be passed to each kernel.
Benchmarks were within 2%.
Fixes T51554.

This commit contains the first part of the new Cycles denoising option,
which filters the resulting image using information gathered during rendering
to get rid of noise while preserving visual features as well as possible.
To use the option, enable it in the render layer options. The default settings
fit a wide range of scenes, but the user can tweak individual settings to
control the tradeoff between a noise-free image, image details, and calculation
time.
Note that the denoiser may still change in the future and that some features
are not implemented yet. The most important missing feature is animation
denoising, which uses information from multiple frames at once to produce a
flicker-free and smoother result. These features will be added in the future.
Finally, thanks to all the people who supported this project:
- Google (through the GSoC) and Theory Studios for sponsoring the development
- The authors of the papers I used for implementing the denoiser (more details
on them will be included in the technical docs)
- The other Cycles devs for feedback on the code, especially Sergey for
mentoring the GSoC project and Brecht for the code review!
- And of course the users who helped with testing, reported bugs and things
that could and/or should work better!

The issue was caused by unlimited textures commit, root of the issue is that
displacement code updates some of the image slots directly, so it needs to
ensure device vectors are all proper size.

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.
