Tile stealing may steal a CPU tile buffer and move it to the GPU, but next time around that
tile may be re-used on the CPU again (in progressive refinement mode). The buffer would
still be on the GPU then though, so is inaccessible to the CPU. As a result Blender crashed
when the CPU tried to write results to that tile buffer.
This fixes that by ensuring a stolen tile buffer is moved back to the device it is used on before
rendering.
If extensions string is longer than 1024 then the old code would have
reported empty string instead of extensions.
Now the code does dynamic string allocation to store result of request,
similar to what is done in `OpenCLInfo::get_hardware_id`.
The code looks a bit ugly, but it didn't really change much with this
patch. In other words, the code can become more modern and clear, but
it is considered to be outside of the scope of this change.

The OptiX denoiser is part of the OptiX device, so to the tile manager looks like a GPU device. As a
result the tile stealing implementation erroneously stole CPU tiles and moved them to that OptiX
device, even though in this configuration the OptiX device was only set up for denoising and not
rendering. Launching the render kernel therefore caused a crash because of a missing AS etc.
This fixes that by ensuring tiles can only be stolen by devices that support render tiles.
The absolute position desktop mapping has been corrected. The correct
mapping is 0-65535 inclusive. Additionally, division by the virtual

Instead of submitting tons of tiny IO syscalls, we can speed things up
significantly by `mmap`ing the .blend file into virtual memory and directly
accessing it.
In my local testing, this speeds up loading the Dweebs file with all its

As far as I can see, this should be supported on Linux, OSX and BSD.
For Windows, a second code path uses `CreateFileMapping` and

Multiple Wintab tablets do not send relative button state when

This commit fixes the issue by configuring Wintab to use absolute

Commit d259e7dcfb increased the instance limit, but only provided
a fall back for the host code for older OptiX SDKs, not for kernel code. This caused a mismatch when
an old SDK was used (as is currently the case on buildbot) and subsequent rendering artifacts. This
fixes that by moving the bit that is checked to a common location that works with both old an new
SDK versions.
For a while now OptiX had support for 28-bits of instance IDs, instead of the initial 24-bits (see also
value reported by OPTIX_DEVICE_PROPERTY_LIMIT_MAX_INSTANCE_ID). This change makes use of
that and also adds an error reported when the number of instances an OptiX acceleration structure is
created with goes beyond the limit, to make this clear instead of just rendering an image with artifacts.

This means the "build_bvh" function gets a "BVHEmbree" object to fill and not a "BVHMulti" as it

Mainly updated the Mantaflow version. It includes the new viscosity solver plugin based on the method from 'Accurate Viscous Free Surfaces for Buckling, Coiling, and Rotating Liquids' (Batty & Bridson).
In the UI, this update adds a new 'Viscosity' section to the fluid modifier UI (liquid domains only). For now, there is a single 'strength' value to control the viscosity of liquids.
The previous design is rather old and has a couple of problems:
* Scalability: The current solution of adding little icon buttons next to the
data-block name field doesn't scale well. It only works if there's a small
number of operations. We need to be able to place more items there for better
data-block management. Especially with the introduction of library overrides.
* Discoverability: It's not obvious what some of the icons do. They appear and
disappear, but it's not obvious why some are available at times and others
not.
* Unclear Status: Currently their library status (linked, indirectly linked,
broken link, library override) isn't really clear.
* Unusual behavior: Some of the icon buttons allow Shift or Ctrl clicking to
invoke alternative behaviors. This is not a usual pattern in Blender.
This patch does the following changes:
* Adds a menu to the right of the name button to access all kinds of operations
(create, delete, unlink, user management, library overrides, etc).
* Make good use of the "disabled hint" for tooltips, to explain why buttons are
disabled. The UI team wants to establish this as a good practise.
* Use superimposed icons for duplicate and unlink, rather than extra buttons
(uses less space, looks less distracting and is a nice + consistent design
language).
* Remove fake user and user count button, they are available from the menu now.
* Support tooltips for superimposed icons (committed mouse hover feedback to
master already).
* Slightly increase size of the name button - it was already a bit small
before, and the move from real buttons to superimposed icons reduces usable
space for the name itself.
* More clearly differentiate between duplicate and creating a new data-block.
The latter is only available in the menu.
* Display library status icon on the left (linked, missing library, overridden,
asset)
* Disables "Make Single User" button - in review we weren't sure if there are
good use-cases for it, so better to see if we can remove it.
Note that I do expect some aspects of this design to change still. I think some
changes are problematic, but others disagreed. I will open a feedback thread on

The issue is caused by stale data on the Mesh Node which is not cleared
during synchronizing since the socket API refactor so that we can detect
changes. However, synchronization only updates the sockets of the Mesh,
so other properties were left with outdated values.
This caused an underflow when computing attribute size for undisplaced
coordinates as it was using the current number of vertices minus the
previous count of subdivision vertices, which at this point should be 0.
Added a simple method to clear non socket data. Also modified
Mesh.add_undisplaced to always use an ATTR_PRIM_GEOMETRY as the data is
not subdivided yet and it avoids any further issues regarding computing
attribute sizes.
The SVM AO node calls "scene_intersect_local" with a NULL pointer for the intersection
information, which caused a crash with OptiX since it was not checking for this case and
always dereferencing this pointer. This fixes that by checking whether any hit information
was requested first (like is done in the BVH2 intersection routines).
OptiX support is not in fact experimental anymore, so it is time for that notice to go.
All Cycles features that are currently supported on the GPU do work now when OptiX is selected.

This update introduces two improvements from the Mantaflow repository:
(1) Improved particle sampling:
- Liquid and secondary particles are sampled more predictably. With all parameters being equal, baked particles will be computed at the exact same position during every bake.
- Before, this was not guaranteed.
(2) Sparse grid caching:
- While saving grid data to disk, grids will from now on be saved in a sparse structure whenever possible (e.g. density, flame but not levelsets).
- With the sparse optimization grid cells with a value under the 'Empty Space' value (already present in domain settings) will not be cached.
- The main benefits of this optimization are: Smaller cache sizes and faster playback of simulation data in the viewport.
- This optimization works 'out-of-the-box'. There is no option in the UI to enable it.
- For now, only smoke simulation grids will take advantage of this optimization.

The methods are defined via the NODE_SOCKET_API macros in `graph/

well as querying or modifying the state of its update flag.
The setters will check whether the value has changed and tag the socket

This patch allows the user to type a property name into the
Attribute node, which will then output the value of the property
for each individual object, allowing to e.g. customize shaders
by object without duplicating the shader.
In order to make supporting this easier for Eevee, it is necessary
to explicitly choose whether the attribute is varying or uniform
via a dropdown option of the Attribute node. The dropdown also
allows choosing whether instancing should be taken into account.
The Cycles design treats all attributes as one common namespace,
so the Blender interface converts the enum to a name prefix that
can't be entered using keyboard.
In Eevee, the attributes are provided to the shader via a UBO indexed
with resource_id, similar to the existing Object Info data. Unlike it,
however, it is necessary to maintain a separate buffer for every
requested combination of attributes.
This is done using a hash table with the attribute set as the key,
as it is expected that technically different but similar materials
may use the same set of attributes. In addition, in order to minimize
wasted memory, a sparse UBO pool is implemented, so that chunks that
don't contain any data don't have to be allocated.
The back-end Cycles code is already refactored and committed by Brecht.

Uniform attributes require immediate access to the shader list
in object update code, so setting the field can't be deferred
to a background task. This required adding a parameter to the
clear method of Geometry.

WM_POINTERLEAVE occurs when the pen goes out of range or when a
hovering pen leaves the window's boundary. When leaving the window
boundary the xy position is invalid for some Wacom devices.
This change removes creation of GHOST_EventCursor during
WM_POINTERLEAVE events. This prevents unexpected jumping behavior
during continuous grab.
Cycles defines some basic integer types since it cannot use the standard headers when
compiling with NVRTC. NanoVDB however only does this when the "__CUDACC_RTC__" define
is set and otherwise includes the standard "stdint.h" header which clashes with those typedefs.
So for compatibility do the same thing in the Cycles kernel headers. See also T81454.
While Cycles already supports using both CPU and GPU at the same time, there
currently is a large problem with it: Since the CPU grabs one tile per thread,
at the end of the render the GPU runs out of new work but the CPU still needs
quite some time to finish its current times.
Having smaller tiles helps somewhat, but especially OpenCL rendering tends to
lose performance with smaller tiles.
Therefore, this commit adds support for tile stealing: When a GPU device runs
out of new tiles, it can signal the CPU to release one of its tiles.
This way, at the end of the render, the GPU quickly finishes the remaining
tiles instead of having to wait for the CPU.

Previously Wintab was handled by saving the most recent tablet pressure and tilt information and deferred appending tablet infromation to Windows mouse events. This caused synchronization issues evident at the beginning and ending of strokes where pressure and tilt were either ahead or behind in time from mouse button up or down events. This also dicarded swaths of data which resulted in blockly grease pencil lines most apparent when a context switch resulted in several coalesced mouse events.
This patch changes the behavior of Wintab to instead rely entirely on Wintab information for pressure, tilt, position, and button input.
Wintab has several design decisions and conventions which complicate relying soley on it's input while retaining current workflows reliant on non-API behavior. For example, many device optionally allow the user to map barrel buttons to non-mouse actions. These mappings may or may not modify the intended behavior when touching the stylus down, such as scroll vs alt mappings. This behavior is not exposed in the Wintab API, but Wintab will continue updating button state sans this necessary context.
To work around the problem, this refactor synchronizations tablet input to Windows mouse down and up events, this captures events which should result in pen input while allowing events such as pen scrolling. Until a Windows mouse down event fires Wintab input is left unprocessed; when a Windows up event occurs Wintab is processed until a corresponding button up event is found.
Wintab allows for either button state or changes to be reported, but not both. An earlier refactor tried to use button changes to let state to be managed by Wintab. This was replaced when it was found that button change events were unreliable at corner cases such as switching windows. It was also found that with Wacom drivers Wintab peek functions would modify events in the queue causing errant and loss of button events.
For the latter stated reason this patch opts to read all Wintab events into a queue as they arrive, removing events as they become stale. This was chosen over using Wintab peek functions due to the afformentioned issue. As a bonus this seems to work better as it prevents the queue in Wintab from filling, thus neither a flood of events need to be handled when Wintab processing begins and a Wintab implementation need not be trusted to overwrite old events in it's queue.

events until one is found. This prevents errant cursor moves that occur
before the Wintab button event is reported. We need to skip these events
because if no button event exists, we generate one assuming it will either
arrive later in the Wintab queue or that the button was from a non-Wintab
device. For the case that this was generated by a non-wintab device, such
as buttons mapped to mouse on the tablet pad, these cursor move events can
significantly move the cursor from the intended click position.

Basic support for velocity updates with the APIC method.
This commit adds APIC to the already existing dropdown menu for the simulation method. The APIC plugin within Mantaflow has been updated to the latest version.
Don't use the current mouse position at the time the event is handled, but
rather the position at the time of the event. This should make e.g. brush
stroke paths more accurate.
In addition, this may solve issues with other software that does mouse
position smoothing. Ref T82143.
Use of the current mouse position was added in 12b642062c as part of a
large commit that also made continuous grab work. But it appears to still
work getting the mouse position from the event.
The issue stems from the fact that scene arrays are not cleared when rendering is done. This was not really an issue before the introduction of the ownership system (rB429afe0c626a) as the id_map would recreate scene data arrays based on their new content. However, now that the id_maps do not have access to the scene data anymore the arrays are never created.
Another related issue is that the BlenderSync instance is never freed when the persistent data option is activated.
To fix this, we delete nodes created by the id_maps in their destructors, and delete the BlenderSync instance before creating a new one, so the id_maps destructors are actually called.

was to render on the GPU.
