In reflection, the `WarpScalar` filter is surprisingly a superset of the
`WarpVector` features. `WarpScalar` has the ability to displace in the
directions of the mesh normals. In VTK, there is a distinction of normals
to vectors, but in VTK-m it is a matter of selecting the correct one. As
such, it makes little sense to have two separate implementations for the
same operation. The filters have been combined and the interface names have
been generalized for general warping (e.g., "normal" or "vector" becomes
"direction").
In addition to consolidating the implementation, the `Warp` filter
implementation has been updated to use the modern features of VTK-m's
filter base classes. In particular, when the `Warp` filters were originally
implemented, the filter base classes did not support more than one active
scalar field, so filters like `Warp` had to manage multiple fields
themselves. The `FilterField` base class now allows specifying multiple,
indexed active fields, and the updated implementation uses this to manage
the input vectors and scalars.
The `Warp` filters have also been updated to directly support constant
vectors and scalars, which is common for `WarpScalar` and `WarpVector`,
respectively. Previously, to implement a constant field, you had to add a
field containing an `ArrayHandleConstant`. This is still supported, but an
easier method of just selecting constant vectors or scalars makes this
easier.
Internally, the implementation now uses tricks with extracting array
components to support many different array types (including
`ArrayHandleConstant`. This allows it to simultaneously interact with
coordinates, directions, and scalars without creating too many template
instances.
In order to compile the contour filter more efficiently, we split the contour filter into two separate translation units, corresponding to the new filters ContourFlyingEdges and ContourMarchingCells. The API for Contour filter is left totally unchanged, and tries to use flying edges if the dataset is structured and uniform.
All three contour filters inherit from the `AbstractContour` class, providing utility methods used in the implementations.
One of the checks for `BenchmarkFilters` is to test the number of
components in field arrays. It did this by using a `CastAndCall` to get
the base `ArrayHandle` and check the type. This is unnecessarily
complicated and fragile in the case where the base array type cannot be
resolved by `CastAndCall`. Instead, just query the `UnknownArrayHandle`
for the number of components.
This should help catch regressions that only affect a single filter. It
also allows us to set up a partitioned test that has many small blocks.
It also fixes an issue we were seeing on the dashboard where the
contour benchmark was apparently running out of resources.
The static datasets were wreaking havoc on order of destructors at exit and causing kokkos to throw an exception. This change dynamically allocates a dataset, copies the read/sourced data into it, and explicitly frees the data.
The enumerations in `vtkm::cont::Field::Association` were renamed in the
previous commit. The old names still exist, but are deprecated. Change
the rest of the code to use the new names.
The `DynamicCellSet` (and the related `DynamicCellSetBase`) are
deprecated and replaced with `UnknownCellSet` (and `UncertainCellSet`).
Thus, `UnknownCellSet` has some methods inherited from `DynamicCellSet`
but replaced with other functionality. These methods are now marked as
deprecated and their use is removed.
The code in `vtkm/cont/Testing.h` now requires a library, which is not
built if testing is not built. Thus, the benchmarking code was giving a
compile error if benchmarking was on but testing was off.
Change the benchmarking to not rely on anything in the Testing
framework. This means using classes in `vtkm/source` instead of
`MakeTestData`. Also avoid using the `TestValue` defined for the tests.
(In one case, we have a simple replacement.) Also had to fix a problem
with a header file not defining everything it needed to compile.
`VaraintArrayHandle` has been replaced by `UnknownArrayHandle` and
`UncertainArrayHandle`. Officially make it deprecated and point users to
the new implementations.

Previously, if you used the `--help` option, you would get VTK-m's
initialize options and Google benchmark's options, but you would not get
the special options for the algorithms in this benchmark. Now, all the
potential options should be printed when `--help` is added to the
command line.
This is going to increase the compile time for the filter benchmark, but
the overall goal is to move this code into libraries. When that happens,
the benchmark will not have to compile any of the filter code and should
ultimately go much faster.
- It also adds Google's benchmarch compare.py script
- It is installed to the build directory.
- It add a wrapper script called compare-benchmarks.py which:
- Let you run each of the benchmarks with different devices
- It adds a README.md explaining how to run the benchmarks
- BenchmarkDeviceAdapter input size range parametrized at compile time

Marked the old versions of PrepareFor* that do not use tokens as
deprecated and moved all of the code to use the new versions that
require a token. This makes the scope of the execution object more
explicit so that it will be kept while in use and can potentially be
reclaimed afterward.
