The first public Windows driver version with a higher number is
101.4824, so we bump the min-required driver version on Windows to this
one to ensure compatibility.
For Blender 4.0 only, 3.3 and 3.6 keep using the older Xcode version.
The new linker in Xcode 15 gives many warnings due to duplicated
libraries, generated by CMake to resolve circular dependencies. For now
use the old linker to silence these warnings.
Remove legacy flags for libc++, this is the default for a long time and
generates warnings with the new linker.
Reason for upgrade is to take advantage of MetalRT curve support.

Upgrade to the latest SDK, and enable in daily and release builds where it's
available as an option under Preferences > System.
There are some known limitations, see #104110 and release notes.

Without this, support for newer NVIDIA cards will not be compiled with pre-compiling the CUDA binaries.
Includes changes needed for the buildbot building pipeline.

Ref #105538
Using the new HIP SDK 5.5 that includes a fix for the compiler bug.
This also enables the light tree.
For Linux the binaries are still disabled. ROCm 5.5 is planned to
include the same fix but not released yet. When that happens we
should be able to enable Linux as well.

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).
Pull Request #104755
This reverts commit 19222627c6.
Something went wrong here, seems like this commit merged the main branch
into the release branch, which should never be done.
This reverts commit 68181c2560.
I merged 3.6 into 3.5 by mistake. Basically I had a PR against main,
then changed it in the last minute to be against 3.5 via the
web-interface unaware that I shouldn't do it without updating the
patch.
Original Pull Request: #104889
Note that the node group has its sockets names
translated, while the built-in nodes don't.
So we need to use data_ for the built-in nodes names,
and the sockets of the created node groups.

* BLENDER_VERSION_CYCLE set to beta
* Update pipeline_config.yaml to point to 3.5 branches and svn tags
* Update and uncomment BLENDER_VERSION in download.cmake
A noticeable (>5%) performance regression in oneAPI backend came with
a501a2dbff. Updating to latest graphics
compiler from driver 101.4032 fixes it.
I've tested it with current min-supported drivers and it runs well but
since compatibility of graphics compiler with older drivers isn't
guaranteed, I'm also bumping the min-supported driver versions.
If end-users consider latest drivers too fresh to switch to (version
isn't released as stable on Linux as of today but should be before
Blender 3.5 release), CYCLES_ONEAPI_ALL_DEVICES=1 env variable can be
used.
Intel Graphics Compiler on Linux will be updated in a later commit
so we can then close D16984.

This changes `make update` to download the assets repository automatically
if it does not exist already. If it does exist, it is updated. Precompiled libraries
have the same behavior. This is required for T103620.
`pipeline_config.yaml` is updated as well for the builtbot.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D17090
Replace ../lib/linux_centos7_x86_64 with ../lib/linux_x86_64_glibc_228,
built with Rocky8 Linux, compatible with the VFX platform CY2023,
see: T99618.
- Update build-bot configuration.
- Remove unnecessary check for Blosc, this is part of OpenVDB lib now.
- Remove WITH_CXX11_ABI, always use new C++11 ABI now
- Replace centos7 by glibc_228 everywhere
Note that existing builds with cached paths pointing to
"../lib/linux_centos7_x86_64" will need to be updated.

This includes much improved GPU rendering performance, viewport interactivity,
new shadow catcher, revamped sampling settings, subsurface scattering anisotropy,
new GPU volume sampling, improved PMJ sampling pattern, and more.
Some features have also been removed or changed, breaking backwards compatibility.
Including the removal of the OpenCL backend, for which alternatives are under
development.

For the full commit history, see the cycles-x branch. This squashes together
all the changes since intermediate changes would often fail building or tests.

Builtbot is switching over from json to yaml. Both
configuration files should be kept in sync for now.
The json file will be removed when everything works as expected.
This fixes a performance regression on Ampere cards, on specific scenes like
classroom. For cycles-x there is little difference, but this is still helpful
for LTS releases, and we need to upgrade at some point anyway.
