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.

The title says it all actually. From tests with barber shop scene here
gives 2-3x speedup for shader compilation on my oldie i7 machine. The
gain is mainly due to textures metadata query from jpeg files (which
seems to requite de-compression before metadata can be read). But in
theory could give nice improvements for scenes with huge node trees
as well (i'm talking about node trees of complexity of fractal which
we had reports about in the past).

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.

Almost in all cases we want such constructors to be explicit, there are
exceptions but only in few places.

This gives about 2x speedup (3.2sec vs. 11.9sec with 32716 handled nodes) when
updating shader for the shader tree.

This way it's easier to pass stuff around and also much easier to add more
state variables.
So far should be no functional changes for artists.

Use Summary structure to collect all summary related on the shader compilation
process which then could be either simply reported to the log or be passed to
some user interface or so.
This is type of the summary / report which is most flexible and useful and
something we could use for other parts like shader optimization.

The issue was than nodes dependencies were stored as set<ShaderNode*> which
is actually a so called "strict weak ordered", meaning order of nodes in
the set is strictly defined, but based on the ShaderNode pointer. This means
that between different render invokations order of original nodes could be
different due to different pointers allocated for ShaderNode.
This commit makes it so dependencies and maps used for ShaderNodes are based
on the node->id which has much more predictable order. It's still possible
to trick the system by doing some crazy edits during viewport rendfer and
cause difference between viewport and final render stacks.

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.

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

Issue was caused by too much aggressive optimization, which skipped execution
of some nodes leading to an uninitialized memory read in SVM stack.

optimization.

This was the original code to get things working on old GPUs, but now it is no
longer in use and various features in fact depend on this to work correctly to
the point that enabling this code is too buggy to be useful.

In practice this means that if you don't connect a texture to your volume nodes
it will figure that out and render the node faster, rather than you having to
specify it manually.
Main weakness is custom OSL nodes where we have to assume it is heterogeneous
because we don't know what kind of data the node accesses.
|
|
This should be pretty rare, the shader in question had many parallel node links
because of copying the nodes many times, which is inefficient to run anyway.

* Added a new sky model by Hosek and Wilkie: "An Analytic Model for Full Spectral Sky-Dome Radiance" http://cgg.mff.cuni.cz/projects/SkylightModelling/
Example render:
http://archive.dingto.org/2013/blender/code/new_sky_model.png
Documentation:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Nodes/Textures#Sky_Texture
Details:
* User can choose between the older Preetham and the new Hosek / Wilkie model via a dropdown. For older files, backwards compatibility is preserved. When we add a new Sky texture, it defaults to the new model though.
* For the new model, you can specify the ground albedo (see documentation for details).
* Turbidity now has a UI soft range between 1 and 10, higher values (up to 30) are still possible, but can result in weird colors or black.
* Removed the limitation of 1 sky texture per SVM stack. (Patch by Lukas Tönne, thanks!)
Thanks to Brecht for code review and some help!
This is part of my GSoC 2013 project, SVN merge of r59214, r59220, r59251 and r59601.

well as I would like, but it works, just add a subsurface scattering node and
you can use it like any other BSDF.
It is using fully raytraced sampling compatible with progressive rendering
and other more advanced rendering algorithms we might used in the future, and
it uses no extra memory so it's suitable for complex scenes.
Disadvantage is that it can be quite noisy and slow. Two limitations that will
be solved are that it does not work with bump mapping yet, and that the falloff
function used is a simple cubic function, it's not using the real BSSRDF
falloff function yet.
The node has a color input, along with a scattering radius for each RGB color
channel along with an overall scale factor for the radii.
There is also no GPU support yet, will test if I can get that working later.

Change SVM mix/add closure handling, now we transform the node graph so that

Most of the changes are related to adding support for motion data throughout
the code. There's some code for actual camera/object motion blur raytracing
but it's unfinished (it badly slows down the raytracing kernel even when the
option is turned off), so that code it disabled still.
Motion vector export from Blender tries to avoid computing derived meshes
when the mesh does not have a deforming modifier, and it also won't store
motion vectors for every vertex if only the object or camera is moving.

existing "Equirectangular". This projection is useful to create light probes
from a chrome ball placed in a real scene. It expects as input a photograph of
the chrome ball, cropped so the ball just fits inside the image boundaries.
Example setup with panorama camera and mixing two (poor quality) photographs
from different viewpoints to avoid stretching and hide the photographer:

* Passes renamed to samples
* Camera lens radius renamed to aperature size/blades/rotation
* Glass and fresnel nodes input is now index of refraction
* Glossy and velvet fresnel socket removed
* Mix/add closure node renamed to mix/add shader node
* Blend weight node added for shader mixing weights
There is some version patching code for reading existing files, but it's not
perfect, so shaders may work a bit different.

* Fix missing update when editing objects with emission materials.

* Fix CUDA runtime compiling failing due to missing cache directory.
* Use settings from first render layer for visibility and material override.
And a bunch of incomplete and still disabled code mostly related to closure
sampling.
