Remove old code that added extra updates for shaders that have a dependency on
objects. The dependency graph can now tell Cycles when a material is affected by
an object transform.

By default it will now set the step size to the voxel size for smoke and
volume objects, and 1/10th the bounding box for procedural volume shaders.
New settings are:
* Scene render/preview step rate: to globally adjust detail and performance
* Material step rate: multiplied with auto detected per-object step size
* World step size: distance to steo for world shader

This is mostly straightforward, but required some refactoring to ensure that
the default volume material does not always turn on the volume feature for GPU
rendering.

This reverts commit d53093953f8f3b58600cb19020ecbe0b5f254b52.

The latest clang compiler (at least the one in Xcode 9.4.1) warns about the register keyword and macro expansions using defined().
Since these warnings come from third party code, we can't address them directly in Blender. Silencing them via #pramgas will
at least keep the warnings during a build down to the ones that are relevant to Blender code.

This introduces a new depsgraph API for getting updated datablocks,
rather than getting it from bpy.data.
* depsgraph.ids_updated gives a list of all datablocks in the depsgraph
which have been updated.
* depsgraph.id_type_updated('TYPE') is true if any datablock of the given
type has been added, removed or modified.
More API updates are coming to properly handle multiple depsgraphs and
finer update granularity, but this should make Cycles work again.

A volume shader should be able to request attributes, and still be rendered
as homogeneous if no volume attributes are available for the object.
|

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.

Two issues here:
- Checking table size to be non-zero is not a proper way to go here. This is
because we first resize the table and then fill it in. So it was possible that
non-initialized table was used.
Trickery with using temporary memory and then doing table.swap() might work,
but we can not guarantee that table size will be set after the data pointer.
- Mutex guard was useless, because every thread was using own mutex. Need to
make mutex guard static so all threads are using same mutex.

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.
|
|
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.

Patch by Stefan Werner, thanks!

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.

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.

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.

Basically the idea is to make code robust against extending
enum options in the future by falling back to a known safe
default setting when RNA is set to something unknown.
While this approach solves the issues similar to T47377,
but it wouldn't really help when/if any of the RNA values
gets ever deprecated and removed. There'll be no simple
solution to that apart from defining explicit mapping from
RNA value to Cycles one.
Another part which isn't so great actually is that we now
have to have some enum guards and give some explicit values
to the enum items, but we can live with that perhaps.

The title says it all actually, the idea is to make Cycles
only requiring Boost via 3rd party dependencies like OIIO
and OSL.
So now there are only few places which still uses Boost:
- Foreach, function bindings and threading primitives.
Those we can easily get rid with C++11 bump (which seems
inevitable sooner or later if we'll want ot use newer
LLVM for OSL),
- Networking devices
There's no quick solution for those currently, but there
are some patches around which improves serialization.

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.

No functional changes, this change is done for consistency of upcoming changes.

Some types were deprecated back in 2013, better to be prepared earlier for those
types being removed from upstream.

This way we'll be able to disable SSS for the scene-adaptive kernel.

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.

Forbid OSL from polluting current conext with obscure stuff from
windows.h, it's not useful and unhealthy anyway.
Maybe we sohuld also forbid using abbreviated Glog constants as
well tho.
