Instead of allocating three separate ThreadMutex pointers,
just embed std::mutex into the struct directly.
|
|
This commit replaces the `Mesh_Runtime` struct embedded in `Mesh`
with `blender::bke::MeshRuntime`. This has quite a few benefits:
- It's possible to use C++ types like `std::mutex`, `Array`,
`BitVector`, etc. more easily
- Meshes saved in files are slightly smaller
- Copying and writing meshes is a bit more obvious without
clearing of runtime data, etc.
The first is by far the most important. It will allows us to avoid a
bunch of manual memory management boilerplate that is error-prone and
annoying. It should also simplify future CoW improvements for runtime
data.
This patch doesn't change anything besides changing `mesh.runtime.data`
to `mesh.runtime->data`. The cleanups above will happen separately.

This is very similar to D14077. There are two differences though.
First is that vertex creases are already stored in a separate layer,
and second is that we can now completely remove use of `Mesh.cd_flag`,
since that information is now inherent to whether the layers exist.
There are two functional differences here:
* Operators are used to add and remove layers instead of a property.
* The "crease" attribute can be created and removed by geometry nodes.
The second change should make various geometry nodes slightly faster,
since the "crease" attribute was always processed before. Creases are
now interpolated generically in the CustomData API too, which should
help maintain the values across edits better.
Meshes get an `edge_creases` RNA property like the existing vertex
property, to provide more efficient access to the data in Cycles.
One test failure is expected, where different rounding between float
the old char storage means that 5 additional points are scattered in
a geometry nodes test.

This isn't likely to be helpful in the future with the move to generic

When a change happens which invalidates view layers the syncing will be postponed until the first usage.
This will improve importing or adding many objects in a single operation/script.
`BKE_view_layer_need_resync_tag` is used to tag the view layer to be out of sync. Before accessing
`BKE_view_layer_active_base_get`, `BKE_view_layer_active_object_get`, `BKE_view_layer_active_collection`
or `BKE_view_layer_object_bases` the caller should call `BKE_view_layer_synced_ensure`.
Having two functions ensures that partial syncing could be added as smaller patches in the future. Tagging a
view layer out of sync could be replaced with a partial sync. Eventually the number of full resyncs could be
reduced. After all tagging has been replaced with partial syncs the ensure_sync could be phased out.
This patch has been added to discuss the details and consequences of the current approach. For clarity
the call to BKE_view_layer_ensure_sync is placed close to the getters.
In the future this could be placed in more strategical places to reduce the number of calls or improve
performance. Finding those strategical places isn't that clear. When multiple operations are grouped
in a single script you might want to always check for resync.
Some areas found that can be improved. This list isn't complete.
These areas aren't addressed by this patch as these changes would be hard to detect to the reviewer.
The idea is to add changes to these areas as a separate patch. It might be that the initial commit would reduce
performance compared to master, but will be fixed by the additional patches.
**Object duplication**
During object duplication the syncing is temporarily disabled. With this patch this isn't useful as when disabled
the view_layer is accessed to locate bases. This can be improved by first locating the source bases, then duplicate
and sync and locate the new bases. Will be solved in a separate patch for clarity reasons ({D15886}).
**Object add**
`BKE_object_add` not only adds a new object, but also selects and activates the new base. This requires the
view_layer to be resynced. Some callers reverse the selection and activation (See `get_new_constraint_target`).
We should make the selection and activation optional. This would make it possible to add multiple objects
without having to resync per object.
**Postpone Activate Base**
Setting the basact is done in many locations. They follow a rule as after an action find the base and set
the basact. Finding the base could require a resync. The idea is to store in the view_layer the object which
base will be set in the basact during the next sync, reducing the times resyncing needs to happen.

corresponding data layers and using their values for computations.
Avoiding that should increase performance in many operations that
would otherwise have to read, write, or propagate these values.
It also means decreased memory usage-- not just for sculpt mode
but for any mesh that was in sculpt mode. Previously the mask, face set,
and hide status layers were *always* allocated by sculpt mode.
Here are a few basic tests when masking and face sets are not used:
| Test | Before | After |
| Subsurf Modifier | 148 ms | 126 ms |
| Sculpt Overlay Extraction | 24 ms every redraw | 0 ms |
| Memory usage | 252 MB | 236 MB |
I wouldn't expect any difference when they are used though.
The code changes are mostly just making sculpt features safe for when
the layers aren't stored, and some changes to the conversion to and
from the hide layers. Use of the ".hide_poly" attribute replaces testing
whether face sets are negative in many places.

Use `verts` instead of `vertices` and `polys` instead of `polygons`

For copy-on-write, we want to share attribute arrays between meshes
where possible. Mutable pointers like `Mesh.mvert` make that difficult
by making ownership vague. They also make code more complex by adding
redundancy.
The simplest solution is just removing them and retrieving layers from
`CustomData` as needed. Similar changes have already been applied to
curves and point clouds (e9f82d3dc7ee, 410a6efb747f). Removing use of
the pointers generally makes code more obvious and more reusable.
Mesh data is now accessed with a C++ API (`Mesh::edges()` or
`Mesh::edges_for_write()`), and a C API (`BKE_mesh_edges(mesh)`).
The CoW changes this commit makes possible are described in T95845
and T95842, and started in D14139 and D14140. The change also simplifies
the ongoing mesh struct-of-array refactors from T95965.
**RNA/Python Access Performance**
Theoretically, accessing mesh elements with the RNA API may become
slower, since the layer needs to be found on every random access.
However, overhead is already high enough that this doesn't make a
noticible differenc, and performance is actually improved in some
cases. Random access can be up to 10% faster, but other situations
might be a bit slower. Generally using `foreach_get/set` are the best
way to improve performance. See the differential revision for more
discussion about Python performance.
Cycles has been updated to use raw pointers and the internal Blender
mesh types, mostly because there is no sense in having this overhead
when it's already compiled with Blender. In my tests this roughly
halves the Cycles mesh creation time (0.19s to 0.10s for a 1 million
face grid).

These few lines making a copy of the final mesh were confusing.
The goal (I'm fairly certain) is to make sure the cage mesh and final
mesh aren't shared when applying the vertex coordinates to the final
mesh. This can be done more simply though, in a way that avoids
duplicating the final mesh if it already isn't shared.
This works well in some basic tests with different modifiers. Though
I doubt it was really a bottleneck anywhere, simplifying the modifier
stack internals is always nice.

In all these cases, it was clear that the layer values were set right
after the layer was created anyway. So there's no point in using
calloc or setting the values to zero first.

If a "rest_position" attribute already existed, potentiall with another
type, the next name "rest_position.001" would be used, which might
even conflict with a name on another domain. Use the C++ attribute
API instead, which has more standard/predictable behavior.

When allocating new `CustomData` layers, often we do redundant
initialization of arrays. For example, it's common that values are
allocated, set to their default value, and then set to some other
value. This is wasteful, and it negates the benefits of optimizations
to the allocator like D15082. There are two reasons for this. The
first is array-of-structs storage that makes it annoying to initialize
values manually, and the second is confusing options in the Custom Data
API. This patch addresses the latter.
The `CustomData` "alloc type" options are rearranged. Now, besides
the options that use existing layers, there are two remaining:
* `CD_SET_DEFAULT` sets the default value.
* Usually zeroes, but for colors this is white (how it was before).
* Should be used when you add the layer but don't set all values.
* `CD_CONSTRUCT` refers to the "default construct" C++ term.
* Only necessary or defined for non-trivial types like vertex groups.
* Doesn't do anything for trivial types like `int` or `float3`.
* Should be used every other time, when all values will be set.
The attribute API's `AttributeInit` types are updated as well.
To update code, replace `CD_CALLOC` with `CD_SET_DEFAULT` and
`CD_DEFAULT` with `CD_CONSTRUCT`. This doesn't cause any functional
changes yet. Follow-up commits will change to avoid initializing
new layers where the correctness is clear.

A mesh wrapper might be being accessed for read-only from one thread
while another thread converts the wrapper type to something else.
The proposes solution is to defer assignment of the mesh wrapper
type until the wrapper is fully converted. The good thing about this
approach is that it does not introduce extra synchronization (and,
potentially, evaluation pipeline stalls). The downside is that it
might not work with all possible wrapper types in the future. If a
wrapper type which does not clear data separation is ever added in
the future we will re-consider the threading safety then.
Unfortunately, some changes outside of the mesh wrapper file are
to be made to allow "incremental" construction of the mesh prior
changing its wrapper type.
Unfortunately, there is no simplified file which demonstrates the
issue. It was investigated using Heist production file checked at
the revision 1228: `pro/lib/char/einar/einar.shading.blend`. The
repro case is simple: tab into edit mode, possibly few times.
The gist is that there several surface deform and shrinkwrap
modifiers which uses the same target. While one of them is building
BVH tree (which changes wrapper type) the other one accesses it for
read-only via `BKE_mesh_wrapper_vert_coords_copy_with_mat4()`.

Curves that are attached to a surface can now follow the surface when
it is modified using shape keys or modifiers (but not when the original
surface is deformed in edit or sculpt mode).
The surface is allowed to be changed in any way that keeps uv maps
intact. So deformation is allowed, but also some topology changes like
subdivision.
The following features are added:
* A new `Deform Curves on Surface` node, which deforms curves with
attachment information based on the surface object and uv map set
in the properties panel.
* A new `Add Rest Position` checkbox in the shape keys panel. When checked,
a new `rest_position` vector attribute is added to the mesh before shape
keys and modifiers are applied. This is necessary to support proper
deformation of the curves, but can also be used for other purposes.
* The `Add > Curve > Empty Hair` operator now sets up a simple geometry
nodes setup that deforms the hair. It also makes sure that the rest
position attribute is added to the surface.
* A new `Object (Attach Curves to Surface)` operator in the `Set Parent To`
(ctrl+P) menu, which attaches existing curves to the surface and sets the
surface object as parent.
Limitations:
* Sculpting the procedurally deformed curves will be implemented separately.
* The `Deform Curves on Surface` node is not generic and can only be used
for one specific purpose currently. We plan to generalize this more in the
future by adding support by exposing more inputs and/or by turning it into
a node group.

Winding order of grid quads was backwards.

Instancing with geometry nodes uses just the evaluated Mesh, and ignores the
Object that it came from. That meant that it would try to look up the subsurf
modifier on the instancer object which does not have the subsurf modifier.
Instead of storing a session UUID and looking up the modifier data, store a
point to the subsurf modifier runtime data. Unlike the modifier data, this
runtime data is preserved across depsgraph CoW. It must be for the subdiv
descriptor contained in it to stay valid along with the draw cache.
As a bonus, this moves various Mesh_Runtime variables into the subsurf runtime
data, reducing memory usage for meshes not using subdivision surfaces.
Also fixes T98693, issues with subdivision level >= 8 due to integer overflow.

This makes changes to the opensubdiv module to support additional vertex data
besides the vertex position, that is smootly interpolated the same way. This is
different than varying data which is interpolated linearly.
Fixes T96596: wrong generated texture coordinates with GPU subdivision. In that
bug lazy subdivision would not interpolate orcos.
Later on, this implementation can also be used to remove the modifier stack
mechanism where modifiers are evaluated a second time for orcos, which is messy
and inefficient. But that's a more risky change, this is just the part to fix
the bug in 3.2.

The crash is caused as the subdivision wrapper does not have loop
normals, which are generally computed at the end of the modifier stack
evaluation via `mesh_calc_modifier_final_normals`. (Note that they are
initially computed, but deleted by the subdivision wrapper creation.)
This records in the mesh runtime whether loop normals should have been
computed and computes them alongside the subdivision wrapper.

The "PROP" in the name reflects its generic status, and removing
"LOOP" makes sense because it is no longer associated with just
mesh face corners. In general the goal is to remove extra semantic
meaning from the custom data types.

This seems to serve no purpose anymore, I don't see anywhere that
CD_MFACE is requested for modifier evaluation, and it's confusing

The mechanism to instance meshes when there are no modifiers did not take
into account that modifiers might get re-evaluated from an operator that
requests loop normals. Now check for that case and no longer use the
instance then.
In the future, a better solution may be to compute loop normals on demand
as is already done for poly and vertex normals, but that would be a big
change.

The issue was uncovered by the 0f89bcdbebf5, but the root cause goes
into a much earlier design violation happened in the code: the modifier
evaluation function is modifying input mesh, which is not something
what is ever expected.
Bring code closer to the older state where such modification is only
done for the object in edit mode.

New code from the vertex normal refactor cfa53e0fbeed combined with older code
from 592759e3d62a that disabled instancing for custom normals and autosmooth
meant that instancing was always disabled.
However we do not need to disable instancing for custom normals and autosmooth
at all, this can be shared between instances just fine.
|
|
|
|
It's better not to expose the details of where the dirty flags are
stored to every place that wants to know if the normals are dirty.
Some of these places are relics from before vertex normals were
computed lazily anyway, so this is more of an incrememtal cleanup.
This will make part of the fix for T95839 simpler.

Currently, whenever any BMesh is converted to a Mesh (except for edit
mode switching), original index (`CD_ORIGINDEX`) layers are added.
This is incorrect, because many operations just convert some Mesh into
a BMesh and then back, but they shouldn't make any assumption about
where their input mesh came from. It might even come from a primitive
in geometry nodes, where there are no original indices at all.
Conceptually, mesh original indices should be filled by the modifier
stack when first creating the evaluated mesh. So that's where they're
moved in this patch. A separate function now fills the indices with their
default (0,1,2,3...) values. The way the mesh wrapper system defers
the BMesh to Mesh conversion makes this a bit less obvious though.
The old behavior is incorrect, but it's also slower, because three
arrays the size of the mesh's vertices, edges, and faces had to be
allocated and filled during the BMesh to Mesh conversion, which just
ends up putting more pressure on the cache. In the many cases where
original indices aren't used, I measured an **8% speedup** for the
conversion (from 76.5ms to 70.7ms).
Generally there is an assumption that BMesh is "original" and Mesh is
"evaluated". After this patch, that assumption isn't quite as strong,
but it still exists for two reasons. First, original indices are added
whenever converting a BMesh "wrapper" to a Mesh. Second, original
indices are not added to the BMesh at the beginning of evaluation,
which assumes that every BMesh in the viewport is original and doesn't
need the mapping.

This is partially caused by a stupid mistake in cfa53e0fbeed7178c78
where I missed initializing the `vert_normals` pointer in
`MResolvePixelData`. It's also caused by questionable assumptions
from DerivedMesh code that vertex normals would be valid.
The fix used here is to create a temporary mesh with the data necessary

normal calculation is only implemented for `Mesh` and edit mesh, not
