This commit hides "UI attributes" described in T97452 from the UI lists
in mesh, curve, and point cloud properties, and disallow accessing them
in geometry nodes.
Internal UI attributes like selection and hiding values should use the
attribute system for simplicity and performance, but we don't want to
expose those attributes in the attribute panel, which is meant for
regular user interaction. Procedural access may be misleading or cause
problems, as described in the design task above.
These attributes are added by two upcoming patches: D14934, D14685

Previously, the conversion was done manually for a fixed set of types.
Now, there is a more general utility that can be used in other contexts
(outside of geometry nodes attribute processing) as well.

This patch implements the vector types (i.e:`float2`) by making heavy
usage of templating. All vector functions are now outside of the vector
classes (inside the `blender::math` namespace) and are not vector size
dependent for the most part.
In the ongoing effort to make shaders less GL centric, we are aiming
to share more code between GLSL and C++ to avoid code duplication.
####Motivations:
- We are aiming to share UBO and SSBO structures between GLSL and C++.
This means we will use many of the existing vector types and others
we currently don't have (uintX, intX). All these variations were
asking for many more code duplication.
- Deduplicate existing code which is duplicated for each vector size.
- We also want to share small functions. Which means that vector
functions should be static and not in the class namespace.
- Reduce friction to use these types in new projects due to their
incompleteness.
- The current state of the `BLI_(float|double|mpq)(2|3|4).hh` is a
bit of a let down. Most clases are incomplete, out of sync with each
others with different codestyles, and some functions that should be
static are not (i.e: `float3::reflect()`).
####Upsides:
- Still support `.x, .y, .z, .w` for readability.
- Compact, readable and easilly extendable.
- All of the vector functions are available for all the vectors types
and can be restricted to certain types. Also template specialization
let us define exception for special class (like mpq).
- With optimization ON, the compiler unroll the loops and performance
is the same.
####Downsides:
- Might impact debugability. Though I would arge that the bugs are
rarelly caused by the vector class itself (since the operations are
quite trivial) but by the type conversions.
- Might impact compile time. I did not saw a significant impact since
the usage is not really widespread.
- Functions needs to be rewritten to support arbitrary vector length.
For instance, one can't call `len_squared_v3v3` in
`math::length_squared()` and call it a day.
- Type cast does not work with the template version of the `math::`
vector functions. Meaning you need to manually cast `float *` and
`(float *)[3]` to `float3` for the function calls.
i.e: `math::distance_squared(float3(nearest.co), positions[i]);`
- Some parts might loose in readability:
`float3::dot(v1.normalized(), v2.normalized())`
becoming
`math::dot(math::normalize(v1), math::normalize(v2))`
But I propose, when appropriate, to use
`using namespace blender::math;` on function local or file scope to
increase readability.
`dot(normalize(v1), normalize(v2))`
####Consideration:
- Include back `.length()` method. It is quite handy and is more C++
oriented.
- I considered the GLM library as a candidate for replacement. It felt
like too much for what we need and would be difficult to extend / modify
to our needs.
- I used Macros to reduce code in operators declaration and potential
copy paste bugs. This could reduce debugability and could be reverted.
- This touches `delaunay_2d.cc` and the intersection code. I would like
to know @howardt opinion on the matter.
- The `noexcept` on the copy constructor of `mpq(2|3)` is being removed.
But according to @JacquesLucke it is not a real problem for now.
I would like to give a huge thanks to @JacquesLucke who helped during this
and pushed me to reduce the duplication further.

Most of the comment block is similar to the text in the source

a header file too, so it's closer for programmers already looking
at the code.
This also uses more consistent syntax and wording in the comments

I don't think this has been visible, since I only ran into it after
changing other code that affected this. However, some attributes
can keep a reference to the source component to use when tagging
caches dirty (like the position attribute tagging the normals dirty).
Here, the component was created inside a function, then the attributes
were used afterwards.
Also add some comments warning about this in the header file.

- Added space below non doc-string comments to make it clear
these aren't comments for the symbols directly below them.
- Use doxy sections for some headers.

Goals of this refactor:
* Simplify creating virtual arrays.
* Simplify passing virtual arrays around.
* Simplify converting between typed and generic virtual arrays.
* Reduce memory allocations.
As a quick reminder, a virtual arrays is a data structure that behaves like an
array (i.e. it can be accessed using an index). However, it may not actually
be stored as array internally. The two most important implementations
of virtual arrays are those that correspond to an actual plain array and those
that have the same value for every index. However, many more
implementations exist for various reasons (interfacing with legacy attributes,
unified iterator over all points in multiple splines, ...).
With this refactor the core types (`VArray`, `GVArray`, `VMutableArray` and
`GVMutableArray`) can be used like "normal values". They typically live
on the stack. Before, they were usually inside a `std::unique_ptr`. This makes
passing them around much easier. Creation of new virtual arrays is also
much simpler now due to some constructors. Memory allocations are
reduced by making use of small object optimization inside the core types.
Previously, `VArray` was a class with virtual methods that had to be overridden
to change the behavior of a the virtual array. Now,`VArray` has a fixed size
and has no virtual methods. Instead it contains a `VArrayImpl` that is
similar to the old `VArray`. `VArrayImpl` should rarely ever be used directly,
unless a new virtual array implementation is added.
To support the small object optimization for many `VArrayImpl` classes,
a new `blender::Any` type is added. It is similar to `std::any` with two
additional features. It has an adjustable inline buffer size and alignment.
The inline buffer size of `std::any` can't be relied on and is usually too
small for our use case here. Furthermore, `blender::Any` can store
additional user-defined type information without increasing the
stack size.

Currently the curve to mesh node relies on the order of attributes being
the same on every spline. This is a worthwhile assumption, because it
will allow removing the attribute name storage duplication on every
spline in the future.
However, the join geometry node broke this order, since it just created
new attributes without any regard to the order. To fix this, I added a
"reorder" step after all the merged attributes have been created, the
types have been joined, etc. It should be possible to change this code
so that the attributes are added with the right order in the first
place, but I would like to do that after refactoring spline attribute
storage, and not for 3.0.

This is a better and more general fix for T92511 and T92508 than
the ones that I committed before.
Previously, we tagged caches dirty when first accessing attributes.
This led to incorrect caches when under some circumstances. Now
cache invalidation is part of `OutputAttribute.save()`.
A nice side benefit of this change is that it may make things more
efficient in some cases, because we don't invalidate caches when
they don't have to be invalidated.

This method does not have to be in a header and results in a relatively
large number of symbols to be generated (42).
|
|
This is very similar to rBa812fe8ceb75fd2b.
This time the number of symbols decreases further from 1335 to 928.
Compile time of the distribute node decreases from ~2.4s to ~2.3s.
|
|
This simplifies the code a bit and improves compile times a bit.
|
|
This comes at a small performance cost due to an additional
memory allocation, but that is not significant currently.
|
|
This makes the classes easier to read and simplifies testing
the compile time impact of defining these methods in the header.
|
|
This adds three new methods:
* `InstancesComponent::foreach_reference_as_geometry(...)`
* `GeometrySet::attribute_foreach(...)`
* `GeometrySet::gather_attributes_for_propagation(...)`
The goal is that these iteration primitives can be used in places
where we use more specialized iterators currently.

Store the optional temporary span storage as a unique_ptr and move
it in the move constructor, to avoid the need to add a special move
constructor that clears the "show_warning" fields from it. Maybe this
is very slightly slower, but we'll need this class less often in the future
anyway.

This implements the initial core framework for fields and anonymous
attributes (also see T91274).
The new functionality is hidden behind the "Geometry Nodes Fields"
feature flag. When enabled in the user preferences, the following
new nodes become available: `Position`, `Index`, `Normal`,
`Set Position` and `Attribute Capture`.
Socket inspection has not been updated to work with fields yet.
Besides these changes at the user level, this patch contains the
ground work for:
* building and evaluating fields at run-time (`FN_fields.hh`) and
* creating and accessing anonymous attributes on geometry
(`BKE_anonymous_attribute.h`).
For evaluating fields we use a new so called multi-function procedure
(`FN_multi_function_procedure.hh`). It allows composing multi-functions
in arbitrary ways and supports efficient evaluation as is required by
fields. See `FN_multi_function_procedure.hh` for more details on how
this evaluation mechanism can be used.
A new `AttributeIDRef` has been added which allows handling named
and anonymous attributes in the same way in many places.
Hans and I worked on this patch together.

Previously only point domain attributes were copied to the result curve.
|
|
Often it would be beneficial to avoid the virtual array implementation
in `geometry_component_curve.cc` that flattens an attribute for every
spline and instead read an attribute separately for every input spline.
This commit implements functions to do that.
The downside is some code duplication-- we now have two places handling
this conversion. However, we can head in this general direction for the
attribute API anyway and support accessing attributes in smaller
contiguous chunks where necessary.
No functional changes in this commit.

With this patch you will be able to add and remove attributes from curve
data inside of geometry nodes. The following is currently implemented:
* Adding attributes with any data type to splines or spline points.
* Support for working with multiple splines at the same time.
* Interaction with the three builtin point attributes.
* Resampling attributes in the resample node.
The following is not implemented in this patch:
* Joining attributes when joining splines with the join geometry node.
* Domain interpolation between spline and point domains.
* More efficient ways to call attribute operations once per spline.

This code in the geometry set header was not directly related to
geometry sets, it makes more sense in the attribute access header.
This makes it clearer that code for geometry components uses attribute
code, rather than the other way around. It also allows adding more
functionality to `BKE_attribute_access.hh` that depends on these things
without including `BKE_geometry_set.hh` there.

A virtual array is a data structure that is similar to a normal array
in that its elements can be accessed by an index. However, a virtual
array does not have to be a contiguous array internally. Instead, its
elements can be layed out arbitrarily while element access happens
through a virtual function call. However, the virtual array data
structures are designed so that the virtual function call can be avoided
in cases where it could become a bottleneck.
Most commonly, a virtual array is backed by an actual array/span or
is a single value internally, that is the same for every index.
Besides those, there are many more specialized virtual arrays like the
ones that provides vertex positions based on the `MVert` struct or
vertex group weights.
Not all attributes used by geometry nodes are stored in simple contiguous
arrays. To provide uniform access to all kinds of attributes, the attribute
API has to provide virtual array functionality that hides the implementation
details of attributes.
Before this refactor, the attribute API provided its own virtual array
implementation as part of the `ReadAttribute` and `WriteAttribute` types.
That resulted in unnecessary code duplication with the virtual array system.
Even worse, it bound many algorithms used by geometry nodes to the specifics
of the attribute API, even though they could also use different data sources
(such as data from sockets, default values, later results of expressions, ...).
This refactor removes the `ReadAttribute` and `WriteAttribute` types and
replaces them with `GVArray` and `GVMutableArray` respectively. The `GV`
stands for "generic virtual". The "generic" means that the data type contained
in those virtual arrays is only known at run-time. There are the corresponding
statically typed types `VArray<T>` and `VMutableArray<T>` as well.
No regressions are expected from this refactor. It does come with one
improvement for users. The attribute API can convert the data type
on write now. This is especially useful when writing to builtin attributes
like `material_index` with e.g. the Attribute Math node (which usually
just writes to float attributes, while `material_index` is an integer attribute).

When a function is executed for many elements (e.g. per point) it is often the case
that some parameters are different for every element and other parameters are
the same (there are some more less common cases). To simplify writing such
functions one can use a "virtual array". This is a data structure that has a value
for every index, but might not be stored as an actual array internally. Instead, it
might be just a single value or is computed on the fly. There are various tradeoffs
involved when using this data structure which are mentioned in `BLI_virtual_array.hh`.
It is called "virtual", because it uses inheritance and virtual methods.
Furthermore, there is a new virtual vector array data structure, which is an array
of vectors. Both these types have corresponding generic variants, which can be used
when the data type is not known at compile time. This is typically the case when
building a somewhat generic execution system. The function system used these virtual
data structures before, but now they are more versatile.
I've done this refactor in preparation for the attribute processor and other features of
geometry nodes. I moved the typed virtual arrays to blenlib, so that they can be used
independent of the function system.
One open question for me is whether all the generic data structures (and `CPPType`)
should be moved to blenlib as well. They are well isolated and don't really contain
any business logic. That can be done later if necessary.

This node allows sampling a texture for every vertex based on some

(e.g. "UVMap") and "position". However, every attribute that can be

Now that typed attribute wrappers don't need to own the

Previously, the span returned by `WriteAttribute`s might not contain the
current value of the attribute for performance reasons. To avoid some
bugs, the span now always contains the old values (they might have to
be copied over from the internal storage, dependending on how the
attribute is stored).
The old behavior is still available with the `get_span_for_write_only`
method. The span that it returns might not contain the current
attribute values. Therefore, it should only be used when you want
to overwrite an attribute without looking at the old values.

Currently, the random attribute node doesn't work well for most
workflows because for any change in the input data it outputs
completely different results.
This patch adds an implicit seed attribute input to the node, referred
to by "id". The attribute is hashed for each element using the CPPType
system's hash method, meaning the attribute can have any data type.
Supporting any data type is also important so any attribute can be
copied into the "id" attribute and used as a seed.
The "id" attribute is an example of a "reserved name" attribute,
meaning attributes with this name can be used implicitly by nodes like
the random attribute node. Although it makes it a bit more difficult
to dig deeper, using the name implicitly rather than exposing it as an
input should make the system more accessible and predictable.

This adds a boolean attribute and custom data type, to be used in the
point separate node. It also adds it as supported data types in the
random attribute and attribute fill nodes.
There are more clever ways of storing a boolean attribute that make
more sense in certain situations-- sets, bitfields, and others, this
commit keeps it simple, saving those changes for when there is a proper
use case for them. In any case, we will still probably always want the
idea of a boolean attribute.
