* Use common TextureInfo struct for all devices, except CUDA fermi.
* Move image sampling code to kernels/*/kernel_*_image.h files.
* Use arrays for data textures on Fermi too, so device_vector<Struct> works.

I need to use some macros defined in util_simd.h for float3/float4, to emulate
SSE4 instructions on SSE2. But due to issues with order of header includes this
was not possible, this does some refactoring to make it work.

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!

This patch allows for an unlimited number of textures in Cycles where the hardware allows. It replaces a number static arrays with dynamic arrays and changes the way the flat_slot indices are calculated. Eventually, I'd like to get to a point where there are only flat slots left and textures off all kinds are stored in a single array.
Note that the arrays in DeviceScene are changed from containing device_vector<T> objects to device_vector<T>* pointers. Ideally, I'd like to store objects, but dynamic resizing of a std:vector in pre-C++11 calls the copy constructor, which for a good reason is not implemented for device_vector. Once we require C++11 for Cycles builds, we can implement a move constructor for device_vector and store objects again.
The limits for CUDA Fermi hardware still apply.

The final goal to reach is to make vectorized types much easier to maintain
and the previous design had following issues:
- Having all types and methods implementation made the source file rather
bloated and unfun to navigate in.
- It was not possible to quickly glance available API for the type you are
interested in.
- Adding more vectorization types will bloat the file even more, making
things even more tricky to follow.

This is not a cheap operation which we dont' want to happen silently.

Ever since we merged the extra texture types (half etc) and spit kernel the compile time for cycles_kernel has been going out of control.
It's currently sitting at a cool 1295.762 seconds with our standard compiler (2013/x64/release)
I'm not entirely sure why msvc gets upset with it, but the inlining of matrix near the bottom of the tri-cubic 3d interpolator is the source of the issue, this patch excludes it from being inlined.
This patch bring it back down to a manageable 186 seconds. (7x faster!!)
with the attached bzzt.blend that @sergey kindly provided i got the following results with builds with identical hashes
58:51.73 buildbot
58:04.23 Patched
it's really close, the slight speedup could be explained by the switch instead of having multiple if's (switches do generate more optimal code than a chain of if/else/if/else statements) but in all honesty it might just have been pure luck (dev box,very polluted, bad for benchmarks) regardless, this patch doesn't seem to slow down anything with my limited testing.

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.

Overflow led to the state buffer being too small and the split kernel to
get stuck doing nothing forever.
|
|
|
|
This does a few things at once:
- Refactors host side split kernel logic into a new device
agnostic class `DeviceSplitKernel`.
- Removes tile splitting, a new work pool implementation takes its place and
allows as many threads as will fit in memory regardless of tile size, which
can give performance gains.
- Refactors split state buffers into one buffer, as well as reduces the
number of arguments passed to kernels. Means there's less code to deal
with overall.
- Moves kernel logic out of OpenCL kernel files so they can later be used by
other device types.
- Replaced OpenCL specific APIs with new generic versions
- Tiles can now be seen updating during rendering

This gives about 5% speedup on AVX2 kernels (other kernels still
have SSE disabled for math operations) and this solves the slowdown
of koro scene mention in the previous commit.
The title says it all actually. This commit also contains
changes to pass float3 as const reference in affected functions.
This should make MSVC happier without breaking OpenCL because it's
only done in areas which are ifdef-ed for non-OpenCL.
Another patch based on inspiration from Maxym Dmytrychenko, thanks!

Mostly this is making inlining match CUDA 7.5 in a few performance critical
places. The end result is that performance is now better than before, possibly
due to less register spilling or other CUDA 8.0 compiler improvements.
On benchmarks scenes, there are 3% to 35% render time reductions. Stack memory
usage is reduced a little too.

This way restrict can be used for CUDA and OpenCL as well.
From quick tests in areas i've been testing this it might give some
barely measurable %% of speedup, but it increases registers pressure.
So use of this qualifier is still really limited.

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.

For now there's no OpenCL support, it'll come later.
|
|
Technically it was all wrong and it should have been called Extend instead
of Clip. Got confused by the naming in different libraries.
More options are still to come.
|
|
Currently only two mappings are supported by API, which is Repeat (old behavior)
and new Clip behavior. Internally this extension is being converted to periodic
flag which was already supported but wasn't exposed.
There's no support for OpenCL yet because of the way how we pack images into a
single texture.
Those settings are not exposed to UI or anywhere else and there should be no
functional changes so far.

This commit makes some preliminary fixes and tweaks aimed to make blender
compilable with C++11 feature set. This includes:
- Build system attribute to enable C++11 featureset.
It's for sure default OFF, but easy to enable to have a play around with
it and make sure all the stuff is compilable before we go C++11 for real.
- Changes in Compositor to use non-named cl_int structure fields.
This is because __STRICT_ANSI__ is defined by default by GCC and OpenCL
does not use named fields in this case.
- Changes to TYPE_CHECK() related on lack of typeof() in C++11
This uses decltype() instead with some trickery to make sure returned type
is not a reference.
- Changes for auto_ptr in Freestyle
This actually conditionally switches between auto_ptr and unique_ptr since
auto_ptr is deprecated in C++11. Seems to be not strictly needed but still
nice to be ready for such an update anyway/
This all based on changes form depsgraph_refactor branch apart from the weird
changes which were made in order to support MinGW compilation. Those parts of
change would need to be carefully reviewed again after official move to gcc49
in MinGW.
Tested on Linux with GCC-4.7 and Clang-3.5, other platforms are not tested and
likely needs some more tweaks.

This was already mixed a bit, but the dot belongs there.
|
|
Most of them are not currently used but are essential for the further work.
- CPU kernels with SSE2 support will now have sse3b, sse3f and sse3i
- Added templatedversions of min4, max4 which are handy to use with register
variables.
- Added util_swap function which gets arguments by pointers.
So hopefully it'll be a portable version of std::swap.

It appears it's not really needed for convenient debugging when
using proper flags passed to the compiler. Basically, it is -g3
and set breakpoint to a function as if it's not in the namespace.
Not as if a code was any wrong, just it's possible to have more
clear solution for the issue i've tried to solve in the past.

It works around strange shading bug when building with MSVC.
If such weirdeness continues, we perhaps would need to use
proper inline flags all the time.
Anyway, lets see how things will behave now.
|
|
|
|
Nobody will use debug mode for benchmarks anyway and this way it's much easier
to set breakpoints on inlined functions to catch all their usages.
|
|
also replace __typeof -> typeof
|
|
This makes the code a bit easier to understand, and might come in handy
if we want to reuse more Embree code.

All textures are sampled bi-linear currently with the exception of OSL there texture sampling is fixed and set to smart bi-cubic.
This patch adds user control to this setting.
Added:
- bits to DNA / RNA in the form of an enum for supporting multiple interpolations types
- changes to the image texture node drawing code ( add enum)
- to ImageManager (this needs to know to allocate second texture when interpolation type is different)
- to node compiler (pass on interpolation type)
- to device tex_alloc this also needs to get the concept of multiple interpolation types
- implementation for doing non interpolated lookup for cuda and cpu
- implementation where we pass this along to osl ( this makes OSL also do linear untill I add smartcubic to the interface / DNA/ RNA)

The AVX kernel functions for reading image textures could be get used from non-AVX
kernels. These are C++ class methods and need to be marked for inlining, all other
functions are static so they don't leak into other kernels.
