- Some arguments were inapproriatry tagged as unused
using (void)foo semantic.
Only use such semantic in tricky casses, when something
needs to be ignored in release builds or something is
dependent on tricky ifndef policy.
For rest of the cases just use void foo(int /bar*/)
semantic, which ensures variable is not used. Solves
confusion and code running out of sync with later
development.
- Used proper unused semantic to some arguments.
- Added braces to make code easier to follow, tricky
indentation with ifdef, uh.

is black
The problem was that Cycles implicitly uses a transparent surface shader when only
volume nodes are used, but since the black emission shader gets optimized away,
it was no longer detected and therefore no transparent surface was used.
Therefore, the shader now stores whether volume nodes were connected before
optimizing.

This works around a long outstanding issue T50176 with cycles on msvc2015/x86 . root cause is still unknown though,feels like a game of whack'a'mole

This way we can skip it from compiling into OpenCL kernels by making
this shader compile-time feature.
|

Ended up moving lock in the more centralized space since multiple shaders
can access this map.

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.

Most of the time, Lamps in Cycles are just a constant emission closure, no texturing etc. Therefore, running a full shader evaluation is wasteful.
To avoid that, Cycles now detects these constant emission shaders and stores their value in the lamp data along with a flag in the shader.
Then, at runtime, if this flag is set, the lamp code just uses this value and only runs the full shader evaluation if it is neccessary.
In scenes with a lot of lamps and with "Sample all direct/indirect" enabled, this saves up to 20% of rendering time in my tests.

The two SVM nodes added with e7ea1ae78c caused a slowdown on AMD cards when rendering with OpenCL, whether displacement was used or not.
In the Barcelona Pavillon scene on a RX480, this would cause a 12% slowdown.
Therefore, this commit adds a additional flag for feature-adaptive compilation so that the new SVM nodes are only enabled when they are needed (Node tree connected to the Displacement output and Displacement type set to Both).
Also, the nodes were also added to shaders when the Displacement Type was set to Bump (the default), which was unneccessary and is fixed now.
Thanks to linda2 on IRC for reporting and testing and to maiself for help with the displacement shader code.
This fix might be relevant for 2.78, but it should be tested further before including it.

Update on Frame Change
Not really ideal fix at all, but we are at RC today, so better to play really safe.

Object coordinates can now be used in the displacement shader and will give
correct results, where as before bump mapping was calculated from the displace
positions and resulted in incorrect shading.
This works by evaluating the shader in two parts, first bump then surface, and
setting the shader state to match what it would be if the surface was
undisplaced for the bump shader evaluation. Currently only `P` is set as if
undisplaced, but other shader variables could be set as well, such as `I` or
`time`. Since these aren't set to anything meaningful for displacement I left
them out of this patch, we can decide what to do with them separately.

Storing multiple copies of a shader was needed when the displacement method was
a mesh option and could be different for each mesh. Now that its a shader option
this is unnecessary.

Displacement is now a per material setting, which means old files will have to
be updated if they had used displacement. Cool side effect of this change is
material previews now show displacement.

This commit makes remove_table skip the freeing if the offset is
already set to invalid - or, if it wasn't, set it to invalid after freeing.
That's what the current code was already doing in the Manager classes,
this change allows them to just call remove without the additional code.
Also, two potential memory leaks where new tables were always allocated
without freeing the old ones are fixed.

* When Baking wasn't used we got an error.
* On top of Volume Nodes (NODES_FEATURE_VOLUME), we now also check if we need volume sampling code,
so we can disable that as well and save some further compilation time.

We don't have vectors re-allocation happening multiple times from inside
a loop anymore, so we can safely switch to a memory guarded allocator for
vectors and keep track on the memory usage at various stages of rendering.
Additionally, when building from inside Blender repository, Cycles will
use Blender's guarded allocator, so actual memory usage will be displayed
in the Space Info header.
There are couple of tricky aspects of the patch:
- TaskScheduler::exit() now explicitly frees memory used by `threads`.
This is needed because `threads` is a static member which destructor
isn't getting called on Blender's exit which caused memory leak print
to happen.
This shouldn't give any measurable speed issues, reallocation of that
vector is only one of fewzillion other allocations happening during
synchronization.
- Use regular guarded malloc (not aligned one). No idea why it was
made to be aligned in the first place. Perhaps some corner case tests
or so. Vector was never expected to be aligned anyway. Let's see if
we'll have actual bugs with this.

When World MIS is enabled by the user, we now check if we actually need it.
In case of a simple node setup (no procedurals, no HDRs..) we auto disable MIS internally to save render time.
This change is important for upcoming default changes.

Basically we can not use sharp closure as a substitude when filter glossy is
used. This is because we can not blur sharp reflection/refraction.
This is quite quick and not really clean implementation. Not really happy
with manual handling of original settings, but this is as good as we can do
in the quick patch. It's a good acknowledgment and we now can re-consider
some aspects of graph simplification to make such cases more natively
supported.
P.S. This failure would have been shown by our regression tests, so please,
bother a bit to run Cycles's test sweep before doing such optimizations.

The goal is to be able to compile kernel with nodes which are actually needed
to render current scene, hence improving performance of the kernel,
The idea is:
- Have few node groups, starting with a group which contains nodes are used
really often, and then couple of groups which will be extension of this one.
- Have feature-based nodes disabling, so it's possible to disable nodes related
to features which are not used with the currently used nodes group.
This commit only lays down needed routines for this approach, actual split will
happen later after gathering statistics from bunch of production scenes.

Now we calculate color in range 800..12000 using an approximation a/x+bx+c for R and G and ((at + b)t + c)t + d) for B.
Max absolute error for RGB for non-lut function is less than 0.0001, which is enough to get the same 8 bit/channel color as for OSL with a noticeable performance difference.
However there is a slight visible difference between previous non-OSL implementation because of lookup table interpolation and offset-by-one mistake.
The previous implementation gave black color outside of soft range (t > 12000), now it gives the same color as for 12000.
Also blackbody node without input connected is being converted to value input at shader compile time.

There were two major problems with the interactivity of material previews:
- Beckmann tables were re-generated on every material tweak.
This is because preview scene is not set to be persistent, so re-triggering
the render leads to the full scene re-sync.
- Images could take rather noticeable time to load with OIIO from the disk
on every tweak.
This patch addressed this two issues in the following way:
- Beckmann tables are now static on CPU memory.
They're couple of hundred kilobytes only, so wouldn't expect this to be
an issue. And they're needed for almost every render anyway.
This actually also makes blackbody table to be static, but it's even smaller
than beckmann table.
Not totally happy with this approach, but others seems to complicate things
quite a bit with all this render engine life time and so..
- For preview rendering all images are considered to be built-in. This means
instead of OIIO which re-loads images on every re-render they're coming
from ImBuf cache which is fully manageable from blender side and unused
images gets freed later.
This would make it impossible to have mipmapping with OSL for now, but we'll
be working on that later anyway and don't think mipmaps are really so crucial
for the material preview.
This seems to be a better alternative to making preview scene persistent,
because of much optimal memory control from blender side.

This is the same as blender internal's texture mapping from another object,
so this way it's possible to control texture space of one object by another.
Quite straightforward change apart from the workaround for the stupidness of
the dependency graph. Now shader has flag telling that it depends on object
transform. This is the simplest way to know which shaders needs to be tagged
for update when object changes. This might give some false-positive tags now
but reducing them should not be priority for Cycles and rather be a priority
to bring new dependency graph.
Also GLSL preview does not support using other object for mapping.
This is actually correct for BI shading as well and to be addressed as
a part of general GLSL viewport improvements since it's not really clear
how to support this in GLSL.

This commit makes it so blackbody and beckmann lookup tables are stored on CPU
after being generated and then only being copied to the device if needed.
This solves lag of viewport update when tweaking shader tree by using 266KB of
CPU memory.

Issue was caused by wrong order of scene device update, which could
lead to missing object flags in shader kernel.
This patch solves a bit more than that making sure objects flags are
always properly updated, so adding/removing volume BSDF will properly
reflect on viewport where camera might become being in volume and so.

This was already mixed a bit, but the dot belongs there.

Create unique flag for output shaders with displacement data and use it
