The FPS here is measured based on a timestamp from when depsgraph
was previously evaluated.
Allows to ease investigating performance improvements/regressions
which are not related on animation system but on modifications on
a single frame (such as transforming vertex in edit mode).
|
|
|
|
The issue was caused by special handling of animation update after
manual edits in frame_post handler: to avid loss of manual edits
done on top of animated property. This was done as a separate pass
for non-animation update after frame_post did modifications.
This caused some other side-effect: non-modified animated property
was re-setting to the value which is used in the viewport.
Idea of this solution is simple: preserve values which came from
animation update through copy-on-write process. The actual process
of this is a bit involved: need to decode RNA path and do it twice
since f-curve might point to a sub-data which pointer will change.
Since this is only done for non-active depsgraph (aka depsgraph
used for render pipeline) this is probably fine since all this
extra overhead is just a fraction of overall render process.

It started to be a long code of all various cases in a single file,
which started to be really confusing.

This is used by driers and this is a first step towards support of
scenes used for only compositor or sequencer.

This was an attempt to speed up motion path calculation, which didn't
really work in real world animation files, where animators already
hide and disable all the heavy collections. Filtering approach also
doesn't allow to have multiple frames evaluated in multiple threads
easily.
Filtering also adds extra complexity on keeping the graph in a correct
and consistent state.

Allows to speed up lookups like "is property FOO of data BAR animated".
Can be used to optimize object's visibility check, but also allows to
check animation on bones without too much of time penalty.
The cache is shared between both nodes and relations builder.
Currently is not used, just a boilerplate for an upcoming changes in
an actual logic.

No functional change, this adds LIB definition and args to cmake files.
Without this it's difficult to migrate away from 'BLENDER_SORTED_LIBS'
since there are many platforms/configurations that could break when
changing linking order.
Manually add and enable WITHOUT_SORTED_LIBS to try building
without sorted libs (currently fails since all variables are empty).
This check will eventually be removed.
See T46725.

Currently should have no functional changes, but allows to
implement runction optimizations more localized and easily.

Some summary of changes:
- Don't use DEG prefix for types and enumerator values:
the code is already inside DEG namespace.
- Put code where it locally belongs to: avoid having one
single header file with all sort of definitions in it.
- Take advantage of modern C++11 enabled by default.

When this works correctly, we should be able to feed in an existing
depsgraph instance, and get out a "filtered" copy of it that contains
only the subset of nodes needed to evaluate what we're interested in.
The current implementation only filters on ID blocks/nodes,
and starts by building a full new depsgraph instance first.
I'd originally intended to do it per operation instead, copying
over individual nodes as appropriate to have the smallest and least
memory intensive graph possible. However, I ended up running into
into problems with function binding + COW arguments, hence the
current slow solution.

This is in preparation of upgrading our library dependencies, some of which
need C++11. We already use C++11 in blender2.8 and for Windows and macOS, so
this just affects Linux.
On many distributions this will not require any changes, on some
install_deps.sh will need to be run again to rebuild libraries.

This makes tagging much more generic and make the world updates more in
line with the new tagging system (Depsgraph).
|
|
To find all effectors in the scene, we need to loop over all objects.
Doing this during depsgraph evaluation caused crashes because not all
objects are guaranteed to be evaluated yet.
To fix this, we now cache the relations as part of the dependency graph
build. As a bonus this also makes evaluation faster for big scenes,
since looping over all objects for each particle system is slow.
Fixes T55156.

Use single function to evaluate all the collections for the given view layer.
This way we avoid need to get scene ID sub-data. Similar to pchan index, this
allows us to avoid build-time scene expansion, which also simplifies update of
the scene datablock.
Well, sort of. There is still work to be done to get rid of build-time scene
datablock expansion, which includes:
- Need to pass view layer by index.
Annoying part would be to get actual view layer for that index. In practice
doing list lookup might not be such a bad idea, since such lookup will not
happen very often, and it is unlikely to have more than handful of view
layer anyway.
Other idea could be to use view layer from evaluation context.
Or maybe from depsgraph, which is supposed to be in the context. Can have
some assert statements to make sure everything is good.
- Need to get id of base binding for flags flush.
We can replace that with index-based lookup from an array created by view
layer evaluation.

This statistics is only collected when debug_value is different from 0.
Stored in depsgraph node itself, so we can always have access to average data
and other stats which requires persistent storage. This way we also don't waste
time trying to find stats from a separately stored hash map.
|
|
We might implement other things to dump into graphviz, so better to
start having explicit names.

The RenderResult struct still has a listbase of RenderLayer, but that's ok
since this is strictly for rendering.
* Subversion bump (to 2.80.2)
* DNA low level doversion (renames) - only for .blend created since 2.80 started
Note: We can't use DNA_struct_elem_find or get file version in init_structDNA,
so we are manually iterating over the array of the SDNA elements instead.
Note 2: This doversion change with renames can be reverted in a few months. But
so far it's required for 2.8 files created between October 2016 and now.

This is a final step of having proper ownership. Now selecting different
layers in the "top bar" will actually do what this is expected to do.
Surely, there are still things to be done under the hood, that will happen
in a less intrusive way.

Was never actually used and implementation seems to be slow: we shouldn't be
doing per-node evaluation hash lookups, adds too much overhead. We can instead
store statistics in the node itself, and maybe even group them somehow.
Ideally such a statistics should be user-friendly so riggers and animators
can see exactly what's happening.

Before it was a compile time option which was not very easy to use or test. Now
the project is getting more mature, so very soon we will be able to call for a
public tests of limited features.
The copy-on-write (which includes animation, modifiers) is enabled using
--enable-copy-on-write command line argument.

< Dependency graph Copy-on-Write >
--------------------------------

This is an initial commit of Copy-on-write support added to dependency graph.
Main priority for now: get playback (Alt-A) and all operators (selection,
transform etc) to work with the new concept of clear separation between
evaluated data coming from dependency graph and original data coming from
.blend file (and stored in bmain).
= How does this work? =
The idea is to support Copy-on-Write on the ID level. This means, we duplicate
the whole ID before we cann it's evaluaiton function. This is currently done
in the following way:
- At the depsgraph construction time we create "shallow" copy of the ID
datablock, just so we know it's pointer in memory and can use for function
bindings.
- At the evaluaiton time, the copy of ID get's "expanded" (needs a better
name internally, so it does not conflict with expanding datablocks during
library linking), which means the content of the datablock is being
copied over and all IDs are getting remapped to the copied ones.
Currently we do the whole copy, in the future we will support some tricks
here to prevent duplicating geometry arrays (verts, edges, loops, faces
and polys) when we don't need that.
- Evaluation functions are operating on copied datablocks and never touching
original datablock.
- There are some cases when we need to know non-ID pointers for function
bindings. This mainly applies to scene collections and armatures. The
idea of dealing with this is to "expand" copy-on-write datablock at
the dependency graph build time. This might introduce some slowdown to the
dependency graph construction time, but allows us to have minimal changes
in the code and avoid any hash look-up from evaluation function (one of
the ideas to avoid using pointers as function bindings is to pass name
of layer or a bone to the evaluation function and look up actual data based
on that name).
Currently there is a special function in depsgraph which does such a
synchronization, in the future we might want to make it more generic.
At some point we need to synchronize copy-on-write version of datablock with
the original version. This happens, i.e., when we change active object or
change selection. We don't want any actual evaluation of update flush happening
for such thins, so now we have a special update tag:
DEG_id_tag_update((id, DEG_TAG_COPY_ON_WRITE)
- For the render engines we now have special call for the dependency graph to
give evaluated datablock for the given original one. This isn't fully ideal
but allows to have Cycles viewport render.
This is definitely a subject for further investigation / improvement.
This call will tag copy-on-write component tagged for update without causing
updates to be flushed to any other objects, causing chain reaction of updates.
This tag is handy when selection in the scene changes.
This basically summarizes ideas underneath this commit. The code should be
reasonably documented.
Here is a demo of dependency graph with all copy-on-write stuff in it:
https://developer.blender.org/F635468
= What to expect to (not) work? =
- Only meshes are properly-ish aware of copy-on-write currently, Non-mesh
geometry will probably crash or will not work at all.
- Armatures will need similar depsgraph built-time expansion of the copied
datablock.
- There are some extra tags / relations added, to keep things demo-able but
which are slowing things down for evaluation.
- Edit mode works for until click selection is used (due to the selection
code using EditDerivedMesh created ad-hoc).
- Lots of tools will lack tagging synchronization of copied datablock for
sync with original ID.
= How to move forward? =
There is some tedious work related on going over all the tools, checking
whether they need to work with original or final evaluated object and make
the required changes.
Additionally, there need synchronization tag done in fair amount of tools
and operators as well. For example, currently it's not possible to change
render engine without re-opening the file or forcing dependency graph for
re-build via python console.
There is also now some thoughts required about copying evaluated properties
between objects or from collection to a new object. Perhaps easiest way
would be to move base flag flush to Object ID node and tag new objects for
update instead of doing manual copy.
here is some WIP patch which moves such evaluaiton / flush:
https://developer.blender.org/F635479
Lots of TODOs in the code, with possible optimization.
= How to test? =
This is a feature under heavy development, so obviously it is disabled by
default. The only reason it goes to 2.8 branch is to avoid possible merge
hell.
In order to enable this feature use WITH_DEPSGRAPH_COPY_ON_WRITE CMake
configuration option.

This way everyone can benefit from it, not only dependency graph.
|

This moves selectability/visibility flag flush from some hardcoded
places in the code to depsgraph. This way it is possible to simply
tag depsgraph to update those flags and rest it'll do on its own.
Using depsgraph for such flush is an overkill: those flags are fully
static and can not be animated, so it doesn't really make sense to
hook only those to depsgraph.
However, in the future we will have overrides on collections, which
ideally would need to be animatable and drivable and easiest way
to support this is to do this on depsgraph level, so it ensures
proper order of evaluation for animation and drivers. And it seems
logical to do both overrides and flags flush from depsgraph from
this point of view.
This commit also includes the evaluation of IDProperty for collections,
which basically are just another form of override. So once we implement
the other kind of overrides the flushing and collection evaluation won't
change.

Now we have no remaining WITH_LEGACY_DEPSGRAPH in the code.
|

This way it's much easier to grasp what the graph actually contains.
|

Those routines are rather big and started to be annoying to have
one big file.
Should be no functional changes.
