The goal is to solve confusion of the "All rights reserved" for licensing
code under an open-source license.
The phrase "All rights reserved" comes from a historical convention that
required this phrase for the copyright protection to apply. This convention
is no longer relevant.
However, even though the phrase has no meaning in establishing the copyright
it has not lost meaning in terms of licensing.
This change makes it so code under the Blender Foundation copyright does
not use "all rights reserved". This is also how the GPL license itself
states how to apply it to the source code:
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software ...
This change does not change copyright notice in cases when the copyright
is dual (BF and an author), or just an author of the code. It also does
mot change copyright which is inherited from NaN Holding BV as it needs
some further investigation about what is the proper way to handle it.
This PR uses renderdoc for frame capturing when enabled.
It enabled an easier workflow for frame capturing.
- Capture GPU API calls from test cases
- Capture GPU API calls from background threads
- Capture GPU API calls from background rendering.
Renderdoc is an important GPU debugger used by the Eevee/
Viewport module. Previously we needed to change code in
order to record background rendering, that could on its own
lead to other side-effects.
The integration with renderdoc can be enabled using
`WITH_RENDERDOC=On` compiler option. `GPU_debug_capture_begin`
and `GPU_debug_capture_end` can be added to the section
of the code you want to debug. When running Blender inside
renderdoc this part will automatically be captured.
All GPU test cases are now guarded by these calls. In order
to capture the test cases you need to start the test cases
from renderdoc and the captured GPU API calls will appear
where each capture is a single test case.

The C4100 warning is related to unused formal parameters in functions.
Enabling it better aligns with "-Wunused-parameter" option in other
compilers.
While suppressing it with `__pragma(warning(suppress:4100))` is not the
same as using `__attribute__((__unused__))` in GCC or Clang, it is
still preferable to use it over completely hiding the warning.
This ensures consistent warning behavior across compilers and improves
code quality by addressing unused function parameters.

This commit implements described in the #104573.
The goal is to fix the confusion of the submodule hashes change, which are not
ideal for any of the supported git-module configuration (they are either always
visible causing confusion, or silently staged and committed, also causing
confusion).
This commit replaces submodules with a checkout of addons and addons_contrib,
covered by the .gitignore, and locale and developer tools are moved to the
main repository.
This also changes the paths:
- /release/scripts are moved to the /scripts
- /source/tools are moved to the /tools
- /release/datafiles/locale is moved to /locale
This is done to avoid conflicts when using bisect, and also allow buildbot to
automatically "recover" wgen building older or newer branches/patches.
Running `make update` will initialize the local checkout to the changed
repository configuration.
Another aspect of the change is that the make update will support Github style
of remote organization (origin remote pointing to thy fork, upstream remote
pointing to the upstream blender/blender.git).

This better aligns with OSX/Linux warnings.
Although `__pragma(warning(suppress:4100))` is not the same as

hide the warning entirely.
The internal compiler error appears to be gone. Unclear why it appeared in the

Pull Request #104719
Vulkan has a pluggable memory allocation feature, which allows internal
driver allocations to be done by the client application provided
allocator. Vulkan uses this for more client application allocations
done inside the driver, but can also do it for more internal oriented
allocations.
VK_ALLOCATION_CALLBACKS initializes allocation callbacks for host allocations.
The macro creates a local static variable with the name vk_allocation_callbacks
that can be passed to vulkan API functions that expect
const VkAllocationCallbacks *pAllocator.
When WITH_VULKAN_GUARDEDALLOC=Off the memory allocation implemented
in the vulkan device driver is used for both internal and application
oriented memory operations.
For now this would help during the development of Vulkan backend to
detect hidden memory leaks that are hidden inside the driver part
of the stack. In a later stage we need to measure the overhead and
if this should become the default behavior.

This makes it convenient to build blender without referencing
pre-compiled libraries which don't always work on newer Linux systems.
Previously I had to rename ../lib while creating the CMakeCache.txt
to ensure my systems libraries would be used.
This change ensures LIBDIR is undefined when WITH_LIBS_PRECOMPILED is
disabled, so any accidental use warns with CMake's `--warn-unused-vars`
argument is given.
These warnings can reveal errors in logic, so quiet them by checking
if the features are enabled before using variables or by assigning
empty strings in some cases.
- Check CMAKE_THREAD_LIBS_INIT is set before use as CMake docs
note that this may be left unset if it's not needed.
- Remove BOOST/OPENVDB/VULKAN references when disable.
- Define INC_SYS even when empty.
- Remove PNG_INC from freetype (not defined anywhere).
As noted in comments, there are a lot of false positives which can't
be conveniently suppressed. Many of these warnings were caused by
`float x, y, z` being passed as `float[3]` using a pointer to `x`.
A few weeks ago we enabled the Metal back-end for the viewport.
Due to metal, master is only able to build on MacOS 10.15 and above.
The previous minimum requirement is MacOS 10.13.
It was already planned to bump to a higher version for Blender 3.6. After
a short discussion via bf-committers it was decided that it is fine to bump it for
3.5 release.
This patch cleans up the CMake files and update the minimum requirement.
With this patch the next deprecations will be listsed.
- `NSOpenGLView`, `NSOpenGLContext` is deprecated. (replaced by metal)
- `NSStringPboardType` is replaced by `NSPasteboardTypeString`

- `NSFilenamesPboardType` should be replaved by multiple pasteboard items with `NSPasteboardTypeFileURL` instead.
- `NSUserNotification` should be replaced with UserNotifications.frameworks API
Deprecations will be handled in separate tasks and commits. OpenGL won't be

This is now only an indirect dependency on shared libraries, which means

There are dependencies between shared libraries, and Python modules which are
always installed on Linux and macOS can use these also.
Instead of adding logic for dealing with dependencies and conditional Python
module installs, just always install everything when using precompiled

MoltenVK is part of the vulkan SDK. Blender requires the vulkan SDK
to compile. This patch adds the MoltenVK includes and libraries to
the Vulkan includes and libraries.
This adds a vulkan backend to GHOST. The code was extracted from the
tmp-vulkan branch. The main difference with the original code is that
GHOST isn't responsible for fallback. For Metal backend there is already
an idea that the GPU module is responsible for the fallback, not the system.
For Blender we target Vulkan 1.2 at the time of this patch.
MoltenVK (needed to convert Vulkan calls to Metal) has been added as
a separate package.
This patch isn't useful for end-users, currently when starting blender with
`--gpu-backend vulkan` it would crash as the `VBBackend` doesn't initialize
the expected global structs in the GPU module.

This adds path guiding features into Cycles by integrating Intel's Open Path
Guiding Library. It can be enabled in the Sampling > Path Guiding panel in the
render properties.
This feature helps reduce noise in scenes where finding a path to light is
difficult for regular path tracing.
The current implementation supports guiding directional sampling decisions on
surfaces, when the material contains a least one diffuse component, and in
volumes with isotropic and anisotropic Henyey-Greenstein phase functions.
On surfaces, the guided sampling decision is proportional to the product of
the incident radiance and the normal-oriented cosine lobe and in volumes it
is proportional to the product of the incident radiance and the phase function.
The incident radiance field of a scene is learned and updated during rendering
after each per-frame rendering iteration/progression.
At the moment, path guiding is only supported by the CPU backend. Support for
GPU backends will be added in future versions of OpenPGL.

PLATFORM_BUNDLED_LIBRARIES gathers shared libraries that will be installed

The build rpath is different and uses absolute paths, so that it works for
executables like tests that are in different locations, and to support the
case where the build and install folders are different.
The system is already used for the OpenMP library on macOS. But on Linux it
will only kick in once we start using shared libraries for dependencies.
This also removes Mesa libraries from the old location, as these would cause

Currently only supports single image frames (no animation possible).
If quality slider is set to 100 then lossless compression will be used,
otherwise lossy compression is used.
Gives about 35% reduction of filesize save when re-saving splash screens with lossless
compression.
Also saves much faster, up to 15x faster than PNG with a better compression ratio as a plus.
Note, this is currently left disabled until we have WebP libs (see T95206)

This patch adds a Hydra render delegate to Cycles, allowing Cycles to be used for rendering
in applications that provide a Hydra viewport. The implementation was written from scratch
against Cycles X, for integration into the Blender repository to make it possible to continue
developing it in step with the rest of Cycles. For this purpose it follows the style of the rest of
the Cycles code and can be built with a CMake option
(`WITH_CYCLES_HYDRA_RENDER_DELEGATE=1`) similar to the existing standalone version
of Cycles.
Since Hydra render delegates need to be built against the exact USD version and other
dependencies as the target application is using, this is intended to be built separate from
Blender (`WITH_BLENDER=0` CMake option) and with support for library versions different
from what Blender is using. As such the CMake build scripts for Windows had to be modified
slightly, so that the Cycles Hydra render delegate can e.g. be built with MSVC 2017 again
even though Blender requires MSVC 2019 now, and it's possible to specify custom paths to
the USD SDK etc. The codebase supports building against the latest USD release 22.03 and all
the way back to USD 20.08 (with some limitations).

This is a first part of the Shader Create Info system could be.
A shader create info provides a way to define shader structure, resources
and interfaces. This makes for a quick way to provide backend agnostic
binding informations while also making shader variations easy to declare.
- Clear source input (only one file). Cleans up the GPU api since we can create a
shader from one descriptor
- Resources and interfaces are generated by the backend (much simpler than parsing).
- Bindings are explicit from position in the array.
- GPUShaderInterface becomes a trivial translation of enums and string copy.
- No external dependency to third party lib.
- Cleaner code, less fragmentation of resources in several libs.
- Easy to modify / extend at runtime.
- no parser involve, very easy to code.
- Does not hold any data, can be static and kept on disc.
- Could hold precompiled bytecode for static shaders.
This also includes a new global dependency system.
GLSL shaders can include other sources by using #pragma BLENDER_REQUIRE(...).
This patch already migrated several builtin shaders. Other shaders should be migrated
one at a time, and could be done inside master.
There is a new compile directive `WITH_GPU_SHADER_BUILDER` this is an optional
directive for linting shaders to increase turn around time.
What is remaining:
- pyGPU API {T94975}
- Migration of other shaders. This could be a community effort.

This patch implements the vector types (i.e:`float2`) by making heavy
usage of templating. All vector functions are now outside of the vector
classes (inside the `blender::math` namespace) and are not vector size
dependent for the most part.
In the ongoing effort to make shaders less GL centric, we are aiming
to share more code between GLSL and C++ to avoid code duplication.
####Motivations:
- We are aiming to share UBO and SSBO structures between GLSL and C++.
This means we will use many of the existing vector types and others
we currently don't have (uintX, intX). All these variations were
asking for many more code duplication.
- Deduplicate existing code which is duplicated for each vector size.
- We also want to share small functions. Which means that vector
functions should be static and not in the class namespace.
- Reduce friction to use these types in new projects due to their
incompleteness.
- The current state of the `BLI_(float|double|mpq)(2|3|4).hh` is a
bit of a let down. Most clases are incomplete, out of sync with each
others with different codestyles, and some functions that should be
static are not (i.e: `float3::reflect()`).
####Upsides:
- Still support `.x, .y, .z, .w` for readability.
- Compact, readable and easilly extendable.
- All of the vector functions are available for all the vectors types
and can be restricted to certain types. Also template specialization
let us define exception for special class (like mpq).
- With optimization ON, the compiler unroll the loops and performance
is the same.
####Downsides:
- Might impact debugability. Though I would arge that the bugs are
rarelly caused by the vector class itself (since the operations are
quite trivial) but by the type conversions.
- Might impact compile time. I did not saw a significant impact since
the usage is not really widespread.
- Functions needs to be rewritten to support arbitrary vector length.
For instance, one can't call `len_squared_v3v3` in
`math::length_squared()` and call it a day.
- Type cast does not work with the template version of the `math::`
vector functions. Meaning you need to manually cast `float *` and
`(float *)[3]` to `float3` for the function calls.
i.e: `math::distance_squared(float3(nearest.co), positions[i]);`
- Some parts might loose in readability:
`float3::dot(v1.normalized(), v2.normalized())`
becoming
`math::dot(math::normalize(v1), math::normalize(v2))`
But I propose, when appropriate, to use
`using namespace blender::math;` on function local or file scope to
increase readability.
`dot(normalize(v1), normalize(v2))`
####Consideration:
- Include back `.length()` method. It is quite handy and is more C++
oriented.
- I considered the GLM library as a candidate for replacement. It felt
like too much for what we need and would be difficult to extend / modify
to our needs.
- I used Macros to reduce code in operators declaration and potential
copy paste bugs. This could reduce debugability and could be reverted.
- This touches `delaunay_2d.cc` and the intersection code. I would like
to know @howardt opinion on the matter.
- The `noexcept` on the copy constructor of `mpq(2|3)` is being removed.
But according to @JacquesLucke it is not a real problem for now.
I would like to give a huge thanks to @JacquesLucke who helped during this
and pushed me to reduce the duplication further.

The same option may later be used to add other debugging features that could

The three options are:
* Forward path tracing (e.g., via BSDF or phase function)
* Next-event estimation
* Multiple importance sampling combination of the previous two methods
Such a feature is useful for debugging light different sampling, evaluation,
