Order copyright immediately after the license block,
this was done almost everywhere with a few exceptions.
Remove authors from a few files (we had already removed "Contributors"
section however with old patches being applied this gets added back in).
Also move descriptive text into the doxygen comment block under \file.
In some cases remove the text as it was accidentally copied.

The value of this flag was never used.
|
|
Remove functions and function pointers that were never set or never
used at all. The "tessface" original index handling in `subsurf_ccg.c`
can be removed because the data was never used.
|
|
This function and flags weren't used outside of DerivedMesh
code, and since the plan is to remove the data structure, it makes
sense to remove complexity where possible.
|

As described in T91186, this commit moves mesh vertex normals into a
contiguous array of float vectors in a custom data layer, how face
normals are currently stored.
The main interface is documented in `BKE_mesh.h`. Vertex and face
normals are now calculated on-demand and cached, retrieved with an
"ensure" function. Since the logical state of a mesh is now "has
normals when necessary", they can be retrieved from a `const` mesh.
The goal is to use on-demand calculation for all derived data, but
leave room for eager calculation for performance purposes (modifier
evaluation is threaded, but viewport data generation is not).
**Benefits**
This moves us closer to a SoA approach rather than the current AoS
paradigm. Accessing a contiguous `float3` is much more efficient than
retrieving data from a larger struct. The memory requirements for
accessing only normals or vertex locations are smaller, and at the
cost of more memory usage for just normals, they now don't have to
be converted between float and short, which also simplifies code
In the future, the remaining items can be removed from `MVert`,
leaving only `float3`, which has similar benefits (see T93602).
Removing the combination of derived and original data makes it
conceptually simpler to only calculate normals when necessary.
This is especially important now that we have more opportunities
for temporary meshes in geometry nodes.
**Performance**
In addition to the theoretical future performance improvements by
making `MVert == float3`, I've done some basic performance testing
on this patch directly. The data is fairly rough, but it gives an idea
about where things stand generally.
- Mesh line primitive 4m Verts: 1.16x faster (36 -> 31 ms),
showing that accessing just `MVert` is now more efficient.
- Spring Splash Screen: 1.03-1.06 -> 1.06-1.11 FPS, a very slight
change that at least shows there is no regression.
- Sprite Fright Snail Smoosh: 3.30-3.40 -> 3.42-3.50 FPS, a small
but observable speedup.
- Set Position Node with Scaled Normal: 1.36x faster (53 -> 39 ms),
shows that using normals in geometry nodes is faster.
- Normal Calculation 1.6m Vert Cube: 1.19x faster (25 -> 21 ms),
shows that calculating normals is slightly faster now.
- File Size of 1.6m Vert Cube: 1.03x smaller (214.7 -> 208.4 MB),
Normals are not saved in files, which can help with large meshes.
As for memory usage, it may be slightly more in some cases, but
I didn't observe any difference in the production files I tested.
**Tests**
Some modifiers and cycles test results need to be updated with this
commit, for two reasons:
- The subdivision surface modifier is not responsible for calculating
normals anymore. In master, the modifier creates different normals
than the result of the `Mesh` normal calculation, so this is a bug
fix.
- There are small differences in the results of some modifiers that
use normals because they are not converted to and from `short`
anymore.
**Future improvements**
- Remove `ModifierTypeInfo::dependsOnNormals`. Code in each modifier
already retrieves normals if they are needed anyway.
- Copy normals as part of a better CoW system for attributes.
- Make more areas use lazy instead of eager normal calculation.
- Remove `BKE_mesh_normals_tag_dirty` in more places since that is
now the default state of a new mesh.
- Possibly apply a similar change to derived face corner normals.

The long term goal is completely removing DerivedMesh, and these
functions are making some refactoring of mesh normals (T91186) more
complicated. They are not used anywhere.
|
|
Also use doxy style function reference `#` prefix chars when
referencing identifiers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use BKE_mesh_from_bmesh_for_eval_nomain instead.

This should have been removed in 2.80 as the functionality was removed.
This feature now does not do anything and can be removed.

Currently it is not possible to view the vertex colors of an object. To
optimize the workflow, workbench will need to support Vertex Colors.
The Vertex Colors is a new option in `shading->color_type`. When objects
do not have vertex color, the objects will be rendered with the
`V3D_SHADING_OBJECT_COLOR`.
In order to support vertex colors in workbench the current texture/solid
shading structure is migrated to a primary shaders and fallback shaders.

We already have different storages for cddata of verts, edges etc.,
'simply' do the same for the mask flags we use all around Blender code
to request some data, or limit some operation to some layers, etc.
Reason we need this is that some cddata types (like Normals) are
actually shared between verts/polys/loops, and we don’t want to generate
clnors everytime we request vnors!
As a side note, this also does final fix to T59338, which was the
trigger for this patch (need to request computed loop normals for
another mesh than evaluated one).

While \file doesn't need an argument, it can't have another doxy
command after it.

Move \ingroup onto same line to be more compact and
make it clear the file is in the group.

BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.

Copied from CDDM_from_bmesh, the modifier stack doesn't
need to handle shape keys, vertex parents or selection history
(needed for mode switching).
|
|
DerivedMesh is now removed from edit-mesh modifier evaluation.
|
|
Note this is just using the derived-mesh data at the moment,
to support this properly we'll need to remove derived-mesh.

Terms get/set don't make much sense when casting values.
Name macros so the conversion is obvious,
use common prefix for easier completion.
- GET_INT_FROM_POINTER -> POINTER_AS_INT
- SET_INT_IN_POINTER -> POINTER_FROM_INT
- GET_UINT_FROM_POINTER -> POINTER_AS_UINT
- SET_UINT_IN_POINTER -> POINTER_FROM_UINT

number of pbvh vertices.
This shall help catching issues in future.

Makes it one line to get needed mesh, no code duplication. And can easily
update asserts and tighten the nuts.
|
|
The PBVH was referencing runtime custom data which was freed on refresh.
|
|
|
|
Majority of the code is EOL, but still handy for debug purposes.
|
|
ORIGSPACE data was not being preserved correctly through subsurf.
|
|
Doing that copy is the right thing, but only if the mesh has its own
deformed_only flag set correctly. This isn't generally the case, so
keeping dm->deformedOnly = 1 is better.
|
|
This flag is copied when converting between DM and Mesh.
This flag is set to true in get_mesh(), to mimick the behaviour of
CDDM_from_mesh_ex. This is necessary for the particle system to work
correctly.
|
|
Since modifier stack is still primarily based on DM in blender2.8, we
need to copy over 'dirty normals' flag from temp Mesh to DM after
modifier has been evaluated.
|
|
This allows the mesh to be freed and the CDDM kept.
