NOTE: While most of the milestone 1 goals are there, a few smaller features and
improvements are still to be done.
Big picture of this milestone: Initial, OpenXR-based virtual reality support
for users and foundation for advanced use cases.
Maniphest Task: https://developer.blender.org/T71347
The tasks contains more information about this milestone.
To be clear: This is not a feature rich VR implementation, it's focused on the
initial scene inspection use case. We intentionally focused on that, further
features like controller support are part of the next milestone.
- How to use?
Instructions on how to use this are here:
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/User:Severin/GSoC-2019/How_to_Test
These will be updated and moved to a more official place (likely the manual) soon.
Currently Windows Mixed Reality and Oculus devices are usable. Valve/HTC
headsets don't support the OpenXR standard yet and hence, do not work with this
implementation.
---------------
This is the C-side implementation of the features added for initial VR
support as per milestone 1. A "VR Scene Inspection" Add-on will be
committed separately, to expose the VR functionality in the UI. It also
adds some further features for milestone 1, namely a landmarking system
(stored view locations in the VR space)
Main additions/features:
* Support for rendering viewports to an HMD, with good performance.
* Option to sync the VR view perspective with a fully interactive,
regular 3D View (VR-Mirror).
* Option to disable positional tracking. Keeps the current position (calculated
based on the VR eye center pose) when enabled while a VR session is running.
* Some regular viewport settings for the VR view
* RNA/Python-API to query and set VR session state information.
* WM-XR: Layer tying Ghost-XR to the Blender specific APIs/data
* wmSurface API: drawable, non-window container (manages Ghost-OpenGL and GPU
context)
* DNA/RNA for management of VR session settings
* `--debug-xr` and `--debug-xr-time` commandline options
* Utility batch & config file for using the Oculus runtime on Windows.
* Most VR data is runtime only. The exception is user settings which are saved
to files (`XrSessionSettings`).
* VR support can be disabled through the `WITH_XR_OPENXR` compiler flag.

A few thank you's:
* A huge shoutout to Ray Molenkamp for his help during the project - it would
have not been that successful without him!
* Sebastian Koenig and Simeon Conzendorf for testing and feedback!
* The reviewers, especially Brecht Van Lommel!
* Dalai Felinto for pushing and managing me to get this done ;)
* The OpenXR working group for providing an open standard. I think we're the
first bigger application to adopt OpenXR. Congratulations to them and
ourselves :)
This project started as a Google Summer of Code 2019 project - "Core Support of
Virtual Reality Headsets through OpenXR" (see
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/User:Severin/GSoC-2019/).

Use proper comparison to nullptr.
It is important to use nullptr since NULL is actually an integer,
which leads to another type of warnings.

Test specs are read from strings, and there was a comma instead
of a decimal point, and then an extra decimal point in the Quad0 test.
This test has been flaky on Windows buildbot. Perhaps this is why.

Fixed memory leak that showed up after the original issue (crash) had been fixed in 93ac4709ebe8. The fix ensures that light cache bakes free up GPU smoke textures and the smoke domain list correctly.
This commit also removes the workaround (f3a33a92987f) that disabled light cache bakes for fluid objects.

This allows fast access to various arrays in the Python API.
Most notably, `image.pixels` can be accessed much more efficiently now.
**Benchmark**
Below are the results of a benchmark that compares different ways to
set/get all pixel values. I do the tests on 2048x2048 rgba images.
The benchmark tests the following dimensions:
- Byte vs. float per color channel
- Python list vs. numpy array containing floats
- `foreach_set` (new) vs. `image.pixels = ...` (old)
```
Pixel amount: 2048 * 2048 = 4.194.304
Byte buffer size: 16.8 mb
Float buffer size: 67.1 mb
Set pixel colors:
byte - new - list: 271 ms
byte - new - buffer: 29 ms
byte - old - list: 350 ms
byte - old - buffer: 2900 ms
float - new - list: 249 ms
float - new - buffer: 8 ms
float - old - list: 330 ms
float - old - buffer: 2880 ms
Get pixel colors:
byte - list: 128 ms
byte - buffer: 9 ms
float - list: 125 ms
float - buffer: 8 ms
```
**Observations**
The best set and get speed can be achieved with buffers and a float image,
at the cost of higher memory consumption. Furthermore, using buffers when
using `pixels = ...` is incredibly slow, because it is not optimized.
Optimizing this is possible, but might not be trivial (there were multiple
attempts afaik).
Float images are faster due to overhead introduced by the api for byte images.
If I profiled it correctly, a lot of time is spend in the `[0, 1] -> {0, ..., 255}`
conversion. The functions doing that conversion is `unit_float_to_uchar_clamp`.
While I have an idea on how it can be optimized, I do not know if it can be done
without changing its functionality slightly. Performance wise the best solution
would be to not do this conversion at all and accept byte input from the api
user directly, but that seems to be a more involved task as well.

Skip light cache baking until T73921 is fixed. This should be fixed properly
but being able to run the tests at all is important now.

This moves the `alembic`, `avi`, `collada`, and `usd` modules into a common
`io` directory.
This also cleans up some `#include "../../{somedir}/{somefile}.h"` by
adding `../../io/{somedir}` to `CMakeLists.txt` and then just using
`#include "{somefile}.h"`.
No functional changes.

Introduce new IDTypeInfo structure.
Each ID type will have its own, with some minimal basic common info,
and ID management callbacks.
This patch only does it for Object type, for demo/testing purpose.
Moving all existing IDs is a goal of next "cleanup Friday".
Note that BKE_idcode features should then be merged back into BKE_idtype -
but this will have to be done later, once all ID types have been properly
converted to the new system.
Another later TODO might be to try and add callbacks for file read/write,
and lib_query ID usages looper.
This is part of T73719.
Thanks to @brecht for initial idea, and reviewing the patch.

If there were merged vertices, sometimes the output faces
had wrong vertex indices. Added a test for this, and fixed.

As explained in T65568 by @LucaRood, the self collision system should exclude triangles that are connected by sewing springs.

The array giving original vertex indices should not contain
entries for newly created vertices. Added a test to check this.

This test is authored by Himanshi Kalra (calra).
It requires a new modifers.blend in the svn tests.

The 'random' unit tests and some examples from the new boolean code
triggered asserts and crashes. This fixes those.
There is a new flag in the input that optionally disables a pass
over input to snap segment edges to other segments.

This fixes {T70269}.
Before this commit there was complicated code to try and compute the
correct parent inverse matrix for the 'Child Of' and 'Object Solver'
constraints outside the constraint evaluation. This was done mostly
correctly, but did have some issues. The Set Inverse operator now defers
this computation to be performed during constraint evaluation by just
setting a flag. If the constraint is disabled, and thus tagging it for
update in the depsgraph is not enough to trigger immediate evaluation,
evaluation is forced by temporarily enabling it.
This fix changes the way how the inverse matrix works when some of the
channels of the constraint are disabled. Before this commit, the channel
flags were used to filter both the parent and the inverse matrix. This
meant that it was impossible to make an inverse matrix that would
actually fully neutralize the effect of the constraint. Now only the
parent matrix is filtered, while inverse is applied fully. As a result,
pressing the 'Set Inverse' matrix produces the same transformation as
disabling the constraint. This is also reflected in the changed values
in the 'Child Of' unit test.
This change is not backward compatible, but it should be OK because the
old way was effectively unusable, so it is unlikely anybody relied on
it.
The change in matrix for the Object Solver constraint is due to a
different method of computing it, which caused a slightly different
floating point error that was slightly bigger than allowed by the test,
so I updated the matrix values there as well.
This patch was original written by @angavrilov and subsequently updated
by me.

The 'Clear Inverse' operator didn't properly update the constraint, so
it didn't do anything until the entire depsgraph was updated. It's now
properly tagged for update.
|
|
In the collections unit test file developers can now disable layer
collections and declutter the 3D Viewport while working in
`constraints.blend`, without influencing the actual unit tests themselves.

Currently this only tests the Child Of constraint. My aim is to cover
constraints with tests before they are refactored/altered.
No functional changes.

This also re-enables the fluid motion blur test.

There are two issues solved in this commit:
- Our Windows buildbot has slightly different floating point errors than
the Linux one, which meant a larger delta was required for float
comparisons.
- The test performs an export to a temporary Alembic file and
subsequently imports it. Deleting the temporary file was impossible on
Windows because it was still in use. This is now resolved by first
loading the default blend file before deleting the Alembic file.

The Alembic importer now works with local coordinates. Previously, the
importer converted transformations from Alembic to world coordinates
before processing them further; this processing often included
re-converting to local coordinates. This change made it possible to
remove some code that assumed that a child transform was only read after
its parent transform.
Blender's Alembic code follows the Maya convention, where in the zero
orientation the camera looks forward instead of down. This extra
rotation is now handled more consistently, and now also properly handles
children of cameras. This fixes T73269.
Unit tests were added to at least ensure that the importer and exporter
are compatible with each other, and that static and animated camera
transforms are handled in the same way.

This rename is to prepare for a future addition to the unit test file.
Currently it's named "import" and I will add an export test as well. The
rename is a separate commit to easily see the difference between the
rename and the addition of another test.
No functional changes.

Do not do much for now, but would have been enough to catch the crash

The changes come from the `functions` branch, where I'm using
these structures a lot.
This also includes a new `BLI::Optional<T>` type, which is similar
to `std::Optional<T>` which can be used when Blender starts using
C++17.

Patch from Jesse Y, reviewed by Habib Gahbiche.
Addes tests for modifiers: array, decimiate, mirror, screw, solidify,
subd, and weld.

A big rework of the code now uses exact predicates for orientation
and incircle. Also switched the main algorithm to use a faster
divide and conquer algorithm, which is possible with the exact
predicates.
|
|
This 'fixes' T68554: 'API mathutils.geometry.tessellate_polygon returns
bad results sometimes' by documenting the limitations of the current
implementation.
I've also added a unit test for the function, so that any change in this
behaviour will get noticed.
No functional changes.

The dependency graph has to know whether a driver must be re-evaluated
every frame due to a dependency on the current frame number. For python
drivers it was using a heuristic based on searching for certain sub-
strings in the expression, notably including '('.
When the expression is actually evaluated using Python, this can't be
easily improved; however if the Simple Expression evaluator is used,
this check can be done precisely by accessing the parsed data.

This is a more correct fix to the issue Brecht was fixing in D6600.
While the fix in that patch worked fine for linking it broke ASAN
runtime under some circumstances.
For example, `make full debug developer` would compile, but trying
to start blender will cause assert failure in ASAN (related on check
that ASAN is not running already).
Top-level idea: leave it to CMake to keep track of dependency graph.
The root of the issue comes to the fact that target like "blender" is
configured to use a lot of static libraries coming from Blender sources
and to use external static libraries. There is nothing which ensures
order between blender's and external libraries. Only order of blender
libraries is guaranteed.
It was possible that due to a cycle or other circumstances some of
blender libraries would have been passed to linker after libraries
it uses, causing linker errors.
For example, this order will likely fail:
libbf_blenfont.a libfreetype6.a libbf_blenfont.a
This change makes it so blender libraries are explicitly provided
their dependencies to an external libraries, which allows CMake to
ensure they are always linked against them.
General rule here: if bf_foo depends on an external library it is
to be provided to LIBS for bf_foo.
For example, if bf_blenkernel depends on opensubdiv then LIBS in
blenkernel's CMakeLists.txt is to include OPENSUBDIB_LIBRARIES.
The change is made based on searching for used include folders
such as OPENSUBDIV_INCLUDE_DIRS and adding corresponding libraries
to LIBS ion that CMakeLists.txt. Transitive dependencies are not
simplified by this approach, but I am not aware of any downside of
this: CMake should be smart enough to simplify them on its side.
And even if not, this shouldn't affect linking time.
Benefit of not relying on transitive dependencies is that build
system is more robust towards future changes. For example, if
bf_intern_opensubiv is no longer depends on OPENSUBDIV_LIBRARIES
and all such code is moved to bf_blenkernel this will not break
linking.
The not-so-trivial part is change to blender_add_lib (and its
version in Cycles). The complexity is caused by libraries being
provided as a single list argument which doesn't allow to use
different release and debug libraries on Windows. The idea is:
- Have every library prefixed as "optimized" or "debug" if
separation is needed (non-prefixed libraries will be considered
"generic").
- Loop through libraries passed to function and do simple parsing
which will look for "optimized" and "debug" words and specify
following library to corresponding category.
This isn't something particularly great. Alternative would be to
use target_link_libraries() directly, which sounds like more code
but which is more explicit and allows to have more flexibility
and control comparing to wrapper approach.
Tested the following configurations on Linux, macOS and Windows:
- make full debug developer
- make full release developer
- make lite debug developer
- make lite release developer
NOTE: Linux libraries needs to be compiled with D6641 applied,
otherwise, depending on configuration, it's possible to run into
duplicated zlib symbols error.

`posix_memalign` requires the `alignment` to be at least `sizeof(void *)`.
Previously, `MEM_mallocN_aligned` would simply return `NULL` if a too small
`alignment` was used. This was an OS specific issue.
The solution is to use a minimal alignment of `8` for all aligned allocations.
The unit tests have been extended to test more possible alignments (some
of which were broken before).

Part of the issue was missing library path to png library.
Other part was missing iconv passed to linker.
