This commit leads to random freezes in Cycles rendering:

The goal of this commit was to remove UI lag for OSL, but since that is not officially supported yet, better revert it until a proper fix can be implemented in 2.65.

devices.
When the scene is updated Cycles resets the renderer device, cancelling
all existing tasks. The main thread would wait for all running tasks to
finish before continuing. This is ok when tasks can actually cancel in a
timely fashion. For OSL however, this does not work, since the OSL
shader group optimization takes quite a bit of time and can not be
easily be cancelled once running (on my crappy machine in full debug
mode: ~0.12 seconds for simple node trees). This would lead to very
laggy UI behavior and make it difficult to accurately control elements
such as sliders.
This patch removes the wait condition from the device->task_cancel
method. Instead it just sets the do_cancel flag and returns. To avoid
backlog in the task pool of the device it will return early from the
BlenderSession::sync function while the reset is going on (tested in
Session::resetting). Once all existing tasks have finished the do_cancel
flag is finally cleared again (checked in TaskPool::num_decrease).
Care has to be taken to avoid race conditions on the do_cancel flag,
since it can now be modified outside the TaskPool::cancel function
itself. For this purpose the scope of the TaskPool::num_mutex locks has
been extended, in most cases the mutex is now locked by the TaskPool
itself before calling TaskScheduler methods, instead of only locking
inside the num_increase/num_decrease functions themselves. The only
occurrence of a lock outside of the TaskPool methods is in
TaskScheduler::thread_run.
This patch is most useful in combination with the OSL renderer mode, so
it can probably wait until after the 2.64 release. SVM tasks tend to be
cancelled quickly, so the effect is less noticeable.

enum typedef and the attribute_standard_name mapping function to util_attribute/util_types headers, so they can properly be used by kernel and render files alike. This should avoid any std C includes which are not available in CUDA. Thanks to Sergey for help!

This patch switches from boost's filesystem v2 to v3.
This should be completely smooth due to filesystem v3 is pretty

other places, was mainly due to instancing not working, but also found
issues in procedural textures.
The problem was with --use_fast_math, this seems to now have way lower
precision for some operations. Disabled this flag and selectively use
fast math functions. Did not find performance regression on GTX 460 after
doing this.

This can be useful to give some variation to a single material assigned to
multiple instances, either manually controlled through the object index, based
on the object location, or randomized for each instance.

* Multithreaded image loading, each thread can load a separate image.
* Better multithreading for multiple instanced meshes, different threads can now
build BVH's for different meshes, rather than all cooperating on the same mesh.
Especially noticeable for dynamic BVH building for the viewport, gave about
2x faster build on 8 core in fairly complex scene with many objects.
* The main thread waiting for worker threads can now also work itself, so
(num_cores + 1) threads will be working, this supposedly gives better
performance on some operating systems, but did not measure performance for
this very detailed yet.

Fix: texture coordinate normal output was not correct, still changed under

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.

=== BVH build time optimizations ===
* BVH building was multithreaded. Not all building is multithreaded, packing
and the initial bounding/splitting is still single threaded, but recursive
splitting is, which was the main bottleneck.
* Object splitting now uses binning rather than sorting of all elements, using
code from the Embree raytracer from Intel.
http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/embree-photo-realistic-ray-tracing-kernels/
* Other small changes to avoid allocations, pack memory more tightly, avoid
some unnecessary operations, ...
These optimizations do not work yet when Spatial Splits are enabled, for that
more work is needed. There's also other optimizations still needed, in
particular for the case of many low poly objects, the packing step and node
memory allocation.
BVH raytracing time should remain about the same, but BVH build time should be
significantly reduced, test here show speedup of about 5x to 10x on a dual core
and 5x to 25x on an 8-core machine, depending on the scene.
=== Threads ===
Centralized task scheduler for multithreading, which is basically the
CPU device threading code wrapped into something reusable.
Basic idea is that there is a single TaskScheduler that keeps a pool of threads,
one for each core. Other places in the code can then create a TaskPool that they
can drop Tasks in to be executed by the scheduler, and wait for them to complete
or cancel them early.
=== Normal ====
Added a Normal output to the texture coordinate node. This currently
gives the object space normal, which is the same under object animation.
In the future this might become a "generated" normal so it's also stable for
deforming objects, but for now it's already useful for non-deforming objects.
=== Render Layers ===
Per render layer Samples control, leaving it to 0 will use the common scene
setting.
Environment pass will now render environment even if film is set to transparent.
Exclude Layers" added. Scene layers (all object that influence the render,
directly or indirectly) are shared between all render layers. However sometimes
it's useful to leave out some object influence for a particular render layer.
That's what this option allows you to do.
=== Filter Glossy ===
When using a value higher than 0.0, this will blur glossy reflections after
blurry bounces, to reduce noise at the cost of accuracy. 1.0 is a good
starting value to tweak.
Some light paths have a low probability of being found while contributing much
light to the pixel. As a result these light paths will be found in some pixels
and not in others, causing fireflies. An example of such a difficult path might
be a small light that is causing a small specular highlight on a sharp glossy
material, which we are seeing through a rough glossy material. With path tracing
it is difficult to find the specular highlight, but if we increase the roughness
on the material the highlight gets bigger and softer, and so easier to find.
Often this blurring will be hardly noticeable, because we are seeing it through
a blurry material anyway, but there are also cases where this will lead to a
loss of detail in lighting.

so these should be avoided.

disk to be reused by the next render.
This is useful for rendering animations where only the camera or materials change.
Note that saving the BVH to disk only to be removed for the next frame is slower
if this is not the case and the meshes do actually change.
For a render, it will save bvh files to the cache user directory, and remove all
cache files from other renders. The files are named using a MD5 hash based on the
mesh, to verify if the meshes are still the same.
