The issue was introduced by rBad5e3d30a2d2 which made possible to use
unbounded elevation angle.
In order to not touch the shading code, we just remap the value to the
expected range the shading code expects. This means that elevation angles
above +/-PI/2 effectively flip the sun rotation angle.
|
|
This was tested in some places to check if code was being compiled for the
CPU, however this is only defined in the kernel. Checking __KERNEL_GPU__
always works.

This patch adds required math functions for float8 to make it possible

Having the OptiX/MetalRT/Embree/MetalRT implementations all in one file with
many #ifdefs became too confusing. Instead split it up per device, and also
move it together with device specific hit/filter/intersect functions and
associated data types.

|
No need anymore to have a difference between CPU/GPU, all distances
remain in world space.
|
|
All our intersections functions now work with unnormalized ray direction,
which means we no longer need to transform ray distance between world and
object space, they can all remain in world space.
There doesn't seem to be any real performance difference one way or the
other, but it does simplify the code.

|
This helps with debugging, and gives a slightly closer match between CPU
and CUDA/HIP/Metal renders when it comes to ray tracing precision.

These mutable pointers present problems with ownership in relation to
proper copy-on-write for attributes. The simplest solution is to just
remove them and retrieve the layers from `CustomData` when they are
needed. This also removes the complexity and redundancy of having to
update the pointers as the curves change. A similar change will apply
to meshes and point clouds.
One downside of this change is that it makes random access with RNA
slower. However, it's simple to just use the RNA attribute API instead,
which is unaffected. In this patch I updated Cycles to do that. With
the future attribute CoW changes, this generic approach makes sense
because Cycles can just request ownership of the existing arrays.

After becb1530b1c81a408e20 the new curves object type isn't hidden
behind an experimental flag anymore, and other areas depend on this,
so disabling curves at compile time doesn't make sense anymore.

For transparency, volume and light intersection rays, adjust these distances
rather than the ray start position. This way we increment the start distance
by the smallest possible float increment to avoid self intersections, and be
sure it works as the distance compared to be will be exactly the same as
before, due to the ray start position and direction remaining the same.
Fix T98764, T96537, hair ray tracing precision issues.

This was added for Metal, but also gives good results with CUDA and OptiX.
Also enable it for future Apple GPUs instead of only M1 and M2, since this has
been shown to help across multiple GPUs so the better bet seems to enable
rather than disable it.
Also moves some of the logic outside of the Metal device code, and always
enables the code in the kernel since other devices don't do dynamic compile.

The Metal backend now compiles and caches a second set of kernels which are
optimized for scene contents, enabled for Apple Silicon.
The implementation supports doing this both for intersection and shading
kernels. However this is currently only enabled for intersection kernels that
are quick to compile, and already give a good speedup. Enabling this for
shading kernels would be faster still, however this also causes a long wait
times and would need a good user interface to control this.

This patch partitions the active indices into chunks prior to sorting by material in order to tradeoff some material coherence for better locality. On Apple Silicon GPUs (particularly higher end M1-family GPUs), we observe overall render time speedups of up to 15%. The partitioning is implemented by repeating the range of `shader_sort_key` for each partition, and encoding a "locator" key which distributes the indices into sorted chunks.

We used it only to access device id for explicitly allowing Arc GPUs.
It made the backend require ze_loader.dll which could be problematic if
we end up using direct linking.
I've replaced filtering based on PCI device id by using other HW properties
instead (EUs, threads per EU), that are now available through Level-Zero.

This patch adds a new Cycles device with similar functionality to the
existing GPU devices. Kernel compilation and runtime interaction happen
via oneAPI DPC++ compiler and SYCL API.
This implementation is primarly focusing on Intel® Arc™ GPUs and other
future Intel GPUs. The first supported drivers are 101.1660 on Windows
and 22.10.22597 on Linux.
The necessary tools for compilation are:
- A SYCL compiler such as oneAPI DPC++ compiler or
https://github.com/intel/llvm
- Intel® oneAPI Level Zero which is used for low level device queries:
https://github.com/oneapi-src/level-zero
- To optionally generate prebuilt graphics binaries: Intel® Graphics
Compiler All are included in Linux precompiled libraries on svn:
https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/lib The same goes for
Windows precompiled binaries but for the graphics compiler, available
as "Intel® Graphics Offline Compiler for OpenCL™ Code" from
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/tool/oneapi-standalone-components.html,
for which path can be set as OCLOC_INSTALL_DIR.
Being based on the open SYCL standard, this implementation could also be
extended to run on other compatible non-Intel hardware in the future.
