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.

- Add CMake checks that ensure supported compiler versions early on.
- Previously GCC per-processor version checks served to exclude
`__clang__`, in some cases this has been replaced by explicitly
excluding `__clang__`. This was needed as CLANG treated some of these
flags differently to GCC, causing the build to fail.

PLATFORM_BUNDLED_LIBRARIES gathers shared libraries that will be installed
to the lib/ folder. The Blender executable gets a relative rpath pointing to
this folder as part of the install step.
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
Blender to start with software OpenGL.

allows reducing the memory footprint of structs which have empty types as

Previously, one had to use the empty base optimization to achieve the same
effect, which requires a lot of boilerplate code.

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

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.

WITH_CYCLES_DEBUG was used for rendering BVH debugging passes. But since we

WITH_CYCLES_DEBUG_NAN will enable additional checks for NaNs and invalid values

We were manually setting the compiler flags

OpenColorIO 2.0 and later. Adding backwards compatibility was too complicated.
* Tinyxml was replaced with Expat, adding a new dependency.
* Yaml-cpp is now built as a dependency on Unix, as was already done on Windows.

* Pystring remains built as part of OCIO itself, since it has no good build system.
* Linux and macOS check for the OpenColorIO verison, and disable it if too old.
Ref D10270
Processors and Transforms
=========================
CPU processors now need to be created to do CPU processing. These are cached
internally, but the cache lookup is not fast enough to execute per pixel or
texture sample, so for performance these are now also exposed in the C API.
The C API for transforms will no longer be needed afer all changes, so remove
it to simplify the API and fallback implementation.
Ref D10271
Display Transforms
==================
Needs a bit more manual work constructing the transform. LegacyViewingPipeline
could also have been used, but isn't really any simpler and since it's legacy
we better not rely on it.
We moved more logic into the opencolorio module, to simplify the API. There is
no need to wrap a dozen functions just to be able to do this in C rather than C++.
It's also tightly coupled to the GPU shader logic, and so should be in the same
module.
Ref D10271
GPU Display Shader
==================
To avoid baking exposure and gamma into the GLSL shader and requiring slow
recompiles when tweaking, we manually apply them in the shader. This leads
to some logic duplicaton between the CPU and GPU display processor, but it
seems unavoidable.
Caching was also changed. Previously this was done both on the imbuf and
opencolorio module levels. Now it's all done in the opencolorio module by
simply matching color space names. We no longer use cacheIDs from OpenColorIO
since computing them is expensive, and they are unlikely to match now that
more is baked into the shader code.
Shaders can now use multiple 2D textures, 3D textures and uniforms, rather
than a single 3D texture. So allocating and binding those adds some code.
Color space conversions for blending with overlays is now hardcoded in the
shader. This was using harcoded numbers anyway, if this every becomes a
general OpenColorIO transform it can be changed, but for now there is no
point to add code complexity.
Ref D10273
CIE XYZ
=======
We need standard CIE XYZ values for rendering effects like blackbody emission.
The relation to the scene linear role is based on OpenColorIO configuration.
In OpenColorIO 2.0 configs roles can no longer have the same name as color
spaces, which means our XYZ role and colorspace in the configuration give an
error.
Instead use the new standard aces_interchange role, which relates scene linear
to a known scene referred color space. Compatibility with the old XYZ role is
preserved, if the configuration file has no conflicting names.
Also includes a non-functional change to the configuraton file to use an
XYZ-to-ACES matrix instead of REC709-to-ACES, makes debugging a little easier
since the matrix is the same one we have in the code now and that is also
found easily in the ACES specs.

This patch changes the discovery of pre-compiled kernels, to look for any PTX, even if
it does not match the current architecture version exactly. It works because the driver can

The test executable can be run with `ctest`. Even though the tests
reside in a single executable, they are still exposed as individual

Not yet ported tests still build & run as before.
The following rules apply:
- Test code should reside in the same directory as the code under test.
- Tests that target functionality in `somefile.{c,cc}` should reside in
`somefile_test.cc`.
- The namespace for tests is the `tests` sub-namespace of the code under

`blender::bke:tests`.

make it really work for Blender. For now use Clang toolchain if
there are issues with GCC+Clang Tidy.
It will be worked on in the nearest future to bring seamless
experience for all configurations.
Currently there is no official way of getting Clang Tidy on macOS,
and on Windows there are some difficulties of hooking up Clang Tidy
from LLVM package to the MSVC compiler toolchain.
The actual warnings in the code will be addressed as a part of the
Code Quality Days, task T78535.

This replaces the cmake options `WITH_NEW_OBJECT_TYPES` and
`WITH_NEW_SIMULATION_TYPE` with two experimental userpref settings:
* `use_new_particle_system`: Enables the point cloud type and the simulation editor.
* `use_new_hair_type`: Only displays the add-operator in the add menu for now.
Note, in the current state you can't do anything productive with the new particle
system or the new hair type. Features will be added step by step in the upcoming
weeks and months.

For GPU debugging purposes, it is still possible to render with the same BVH2
on the CPU using the Debug panel in the render properties.
Note that building Blender without Embree will now lead to significantly reduced
performance in CPU rendering, and a few of the Cycles regression tests will fail
due to small pixel differences.

Using latest master because of various compilation error fixes.
Brings a lot of recent development. From most interesting parts:
- New threading model.
- Tiny solver.
- Compatibility with C++17.
This is an intermittent state to get all dependencies to compile.
For example, the latest Ceres is needed to bring C++17 support,
but it has bumped minimal requirement to C++14.
Having USD disabled by default was an oversight, and could have been
corrected earlier. It's already enabled by default in the
`blender_release.cmake` and `blender_full.cmake`.
