Purely developers-only feature which allows to disable some of the CPU
capabilities. This way it's easier to test different kernels on the
same machine.
|
|
In the worst case it'll do nothing, in the best case it might give some percent
of speedup because of better cache coherency.
Currently it's all handled as an override on blender_python level, don't really
see reason to penetrate the boolean flag further into sync code. This can always
be done later if needed.

Nothing special, just really handy for debugging.
|
|
This makes overall code of create_mesh() much cleaner and easier to follow.
|
|
|

This attribute means how "pointy" the geometry surface is, which allows to do
effects like dirt maps and wear-off effects on render geometry. This means the
attribute is calculated for the final mesh which means no baking (which implies
UV unwrap) is needed. Apart from this the behavior is quite close to how vertex
dirty colors works.
The new attribute is available as an output socket of Geometry node.
There's no penalty for the render time, only some delay on scene preparation
(the delay is linear of the mesh complexity).

From more investigation of the numeric failures in the kernel it appears
the check was rather correct. But in theory it;s also needed for the motion
triangles.
|
|
The issue was caused by lack of check for whether fresnel term is actually
giving total internal reflection in refraction BSDFs. This lead to usage of
arbitrary vector of (0, 0, 0) as reflection, giving numeric issues in other
areas of the kernel.
This gives some visual changes of sharp reflection but it seems to be rather
proper now. Which also corresponds with rough glossy reflection with sharpness
set to 0.001 (previously it was totally different from sharpness of 0.0, which
is just weird).

This is the same issue T43475: SSE4 code is more robust to non-finite values
in the ray origin/direction. So for now added a check before doing BVH traversal
for pre-SSE4 CPUs.
For sure actual root of the issue is a bit different and much more tricky to
solve, especially without disturbing render results too much. Still looking
into this.
In any case, it's kinda fine to have such a check, we might later make it to be
a kernel_assert() instead of just a return.

Previous fix didn't quite work well. For some reason everything worked fine when
using native nvcc in 32bit environment, but cross-compiling from 64bit platform
it was still running out of memory.
For now just made it so all the kernels are slower on 32bit CUDA as a temporary
solution. Either it'll be solved in next CUDA releases (by dropped 32bit? =\) or
we'll find better workaround.

Was filtering for Logitech's USB vendor ID. 3Dconnexion now uses their
own vendor ID for new products. Mac & Windows don't look for specific
vendors so they should be fine.
Also added a note to eventually make USE_FINISH_GLITCH_WORKAROUND
available on all platforms.

Reined back over-use of virtual functions in GHOST, especially in
"leaves" of the inheritance hierarchy. This eliminates vtables for many
classes and (in some places) turns virtual function dispatch into direct
function calls.
I'll be around to fix things if other coders think this change is too
much.
Still lots of virtual in GHOST_TaskbarWin32 since it just loves virtual.

also minor warning cleanup

Visual representation of fire was generated before simulation step took place. This caused fire to essentially lag one simulation step behind, even though all emission areas were up to date.

Runtime costs were horrible. On gooseberry in some sequencer edits using
proxies of small size, a cache with about 2000 elements would slow to
about 6 fps once cache was full and system tried to find smallest
element available.
There are still improvements to be done here, like requesting a number
of good candidates to avoid rerunnung through the list, or even using
some heap or ring buffer scheme to sort data, but nothing suits all
needs so for now that should bring the cache back to usable state (25fps
here at the studio)

This is the core code for it, tools (datatransfer and modifier) will come in next commits).
RNA api is already there, though.
See the code for details, but basically, we define, for each 'smooth fan'
(which is a set of adjacent loops around a same vertex that are smooth, i.e. have a single same normal),
a 'loop normal space' (or lnor space), using auto-computed normal and relevant edges, and store
custom normal as two angular factors inside that space. This allows to have custom normals
'following' deformations of the geometry, and to only save two shorts per loop in new clnor CDLayer.
Normal manipulation (editing, mixing, interpolating, etc.) shall always happen with plain 3D vectors normals,
and be converted back into storage format at the end.
Clnor computation has also been threaded (at least for Mesh case, not for BMesh), since the process can
be rather heavy with high poly meshes.
Also, bumping subversion, and fix mess in 2.70 versioning code.

The issue was caused by the way how we shoot the ray to see which rays we're
inside which might start bouncing back-n-forth between two close to parallel
intersecting faces.
Real solution would be to record all the intersections when shooting the ray,
but it's kinda tricky on GPU because of needed sorting and uncertainty of
how huge intersection array should be.
For now we'll just limit number of steps in the check so in worst case we'll
have some samples not being correct which will be compensated with further
sampling. Shouldn't be an issue since probability of such a lock is quite
small actually.

Issue was in fact only visible in certain circumstances:
- OSL was compiled with Boost Wave
- or system's cpp didn't handle space between -I and path
Now made it so both wave and cpp code paths are always happy.
Original patch from Shane Ambler with own modifications to
mimic what variable holds on more verbose.

This gives small speedup (around 2% in quick tests) for ray scattering.
|
|
|
|
This is a bit of a mess because of the header dependency hell, but
since the tweak is small enough it's gonna be fine.
|
|
|
|
IN theory object might depend on camera location (spatial adaptive subdivisions
for example) which became not possible to achieve after camera in volume support.
Should be no functional changes for artists.
|
|
This warning provided too much false-positive issues in release version of the
kernel, making it really easy to miss actual warnings.
|
|
Was rather harmless since compiler will optimize it out, but nice to get
rid of this anyway.
|
|
Slowdown was caused by watertight intersection commit and follow-up workaorund
for compiler crash which uninlined utility function which rotates the ray.
Now it's only uninlined for sm_50 and sm_52 experimental kernels which are the
only ones which failed to compile.
Rendering still might be a bit slower but at least shouldn't be that dramatic.
|
|
Basically build-time compiled kernels were using --fast-math (which is correct)
but run-time compiled did not.
|
|
|
|
Basically title says it all. Could be not totally optimized but the code is there now.
|
|
This is for development and test environment setup only, not for
regular users usage hence no mentioning in the man page needed.
|
|
The issue was caused bu the optimization in surface attributes for cases when
there's only a volume shader used. Some attributes doesn't make sense in that
case and were skipped from calculation.
However, it is possible that kernel would still try to access them (because of
the shader setup etc). Prevented an infinite loop in the kernel now, which
should not have much affect on regular renders.
|
|
It is possible that ray distance will be zero which would make intersection
refinement return NaN as the refined position which would later lead to all
sort of mathematical issues.
Don't think there are ways to improve intersection accuracy for such rays
so just return original intersection coordinate.
This should fix T43475.
TODO: Need to look into possible issues in Ashikhmin BSDF which might return
zero-length reflected/transmitted ray?
|
|
This way we save 3 bytes per BVH node while building BVH, which overall
gives 100Mb memory save when preparing Frank for render.
It's not really much comparing to overall memory usage (which is 11Gb
during scene preparation here) but still doesn't harm to have solved.
|
|
Precision of the fast functions seems to be enough in there and
since the code was heavily using inverse trigonometric functions
this change gives few percent speedup on Victor's hair.
From the tests files from ctests storage doesn't have any meaningful
difference, hair on Victor is all below 4% absolute error and only
few pixels are exceeding 1% absolute difference.
In any case, let it be as it is currently so it allows us to have
fast math file in sources for it's further evaluation and possible
usage in other areas as well.
|
|
It is based on fmath.h from OIIO and could be used to give some speedup
in areas where absolute accuracy is not so critical.
|

BSDF sampler function shouldn't give labels it's not intended to do.
That said reflection shouldn't give transmission ray and transmission
give reflection ray.
Added an assert in the transmission sampling but reflection still
needs some investigation because even after recent fixes the check
for projection onto the reflected ray could give both positive and
negative values.
It shouldn't have any affect on renders just makes internal logic
consistent and unleashes an issue to be investigate further.
|
|
Hair BSDF did not have proper behavior because of non-normalized
tangent direction (which it expected to be normalized).This lead
to wrong labels being returned by the hair BSDF samplers.
|

This was intended to be in the original patch of texco copy from object.
|

also remove empty class parenthesis

* create() and destroy() are deprecated since OSL 1.5, use regular constructors / destructors.
|

Reported and nailed down by Michale (MeshLogic).
The code that fixes this was commented out, but Brecht gave the go ahead to use it even if it is not the real solution
