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 does 2 things to address the ARM64 failures:
- Increases the threshold to be inline with what Cycles uses
- Disables the 2 problematic WebP variations (#105006 will track)
This adds saving and loading tests for our supported image formats.
**Saving - bf_imbuf_save.py**
There are 2 template images which are loaded anew for each file save
attempt. One is an 8-bit RGBA image and the other 32-bit. This is
required as many formats use a variety of factors to determine which of
`ibuf->rect` or `ibuf->rectfloat` to use for processing. The templates
are constructed to have alpha transparency as well as values > 1 (or
clamped to 1 for the case of the 8-bit template).
Test flow:
- Load in an appropriate template image
- Save it to the desired format with the desired set of options
- Compare against the reference image
Notes:
- 98 references are used totaling ~3.6MB
- 10-12 second test runtime
- Templates can be reconstructed with the create-templates.blend file
**Loading - bf_imbuf_load.py**
Test flow:
- Load in each of the reference images
- Save them back out as .exr
- Save additional metadata to a secondary file (alpha mode, colorspace etc)
- Compare the saved out .exr with another set of reference .exrs
- Compare the saved out file metadata with set of reference metadata
Notes:
- 98 exr references are used totaling ~10MB
- 10-12 second test runtime as well

Pull Request #104442
A properly authored USD file will have the extent attribute authored on all prims conforming to UsdGeomBoundable.
This cached extent information is useful because it allows the 3D range of prims to be quickly understood without reading potentially large arrays of data. Note that because the shape of prims may change over time, extent attributes are always evaluated for a given timecode.
This patch introduces support for authoring extents on meshes and volumes during export to USD.
Because extents are common to multiple kinds of geometries, the main support for authoring extents has been placed in USDAbstractWriter, whose new author_extent method can operate on any prim conforming to pxr::UsdGeomBoundable. The USD library already provides us the code necessary to compute the bounds for a given prim, in pxr::UsdGeomBBoxCache::ComputeLocalBound.
Note that not all prims that are imageable are boundable, such as transforms and cameras.
For more details on extents, see https://graphics.pixar.com/usd/release/api/class_usd_geom_boundable.html#details.
Note that when new types of geometries are introduced, such as curves in https://developer.blender.org/D16545, we will need to update the USD writer for that geometry such that it calls this->author_extent.
Update on Feb 2: This patch has been updated to include a unit test to ensure authored extents are valid. This test requires new test assets that will need to be submitted via svn. The test assets are attached in the d16837_usd_test_assets.zip file. To use, unzip and merge the contents of this zip into the lib/tests/usd folder.
This unit test also addresses #104269 by validating compliance of exported USD via UsdUtils.ComplianceChecker.

Currently when importing a USD file, some of the camera properties are
ignored, or the units are not converted correctly from USD world units.
On import we currently set the focal length, but not the camera sensor
size (horizontal and vertical aperture), so the camera field of view
is wrong. The sensor size information is in the USD file, but is ignored
for perspective cameras.
USD uses "tenth of a world unit" scale for some physical camera properties
like focal length and aperture.

I have added the UsdStage's metersPerUnit parameter to the ImportSettings

This adds a new `Interpolate Curves` node. It allows generating new curves
between a set of existing guide curves. This is essential for procedural hair.
Usage:
- One has to provide a set of guide curves and a set of root positions for
the generated curves. New curves are created starting from these root
positions. The N closest guide curves are used for the interpolation.
- An additional up vector can be provided for every guide curve and
root position. This is typically a surface normal or nothing. This allows
generating child curves that are properly oriented based on the
surface orientation.
- Sometimes a point should only be interpolated using a subset of the
guides. This can be achieved using the `Guide Group ID` and
`Point Group ID` inputs. The curve generated at a specific point will
only take the guides with the same id into account. This allows e.g.
for hair parting.
- The `Max Neighbors` input limits how many guide curves are taken
into account for every interpolated curve.

As part of T95966, this patch moves loose edge information out of the
flag on each edge and into a new lazily calculated cache in mesh
runtime data. The number of loose edges is also cached, so further
processing can be skipped completely when there are no loose edges.
Previously the `ME_LOOSEEDGE` flag was updated on a "best effort"
basis. In order to be sure that it was correct, you had to be sure
to call `BKE_mesh_calc_edges_loose` first. Now the loose edge tag
is always correct. It also doesn't have to be calculated eagerly
in various places like the screw modifier where the complexity
wasn't worth the theoretical performance benefit.
The patch also adds a function to eagerly set the number of loose
edges to zero to avoid building the cache. This is used by various
primitive nodes, with the goal of improving drawing performance.
This results in a few ms shaved off extracting draw data for some
large meshes in my tests.
In the Python API, `MeshEdge.is_loose` is no longer editable.
No built-in addons set the value anyway. The upside is that
addons can be sure the data is correct based on the mesh.
**Tests**
There is one test failure in the Python OBJ exporter: `export_obj_cube`
that happens because of existing incorrect versioning. Opening the

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.

This adds support for selective rendering of caustics in shadows of refractive
objects. Example uses are rendering of underwater caustics and eye caustics.
This is based on "Manifold Next Event Estimation", a method developed for
production rendering. The idea is to selectively enable shadow caustics on a
few objects in the scene where they have a big visual impact, without impacting
render performance for the rest of the scene.
The Shadow Caustic option must be manually enabled on light, caustic receiver
and caster objects. For such light paths, the Filter Glossy option will be
ignored and replaced by sharp caustics.
Currently this method has a various limitations:
* Only caustics in shadows of refractive objects work, which means no caustics
from reflection or caustics that outside shadows. Only up to 4 refractive
caustic bounces are supported.
* Caustic caster objects should have smooth normals.
* Not currently support for Metal GPU rendering.
In the future this method may be extended for more general caustics.
TECHNICAL DETAILS
This code adds manifold next event estimation through refractive surface(s) as a
new sampling technique for direct lighting, i.e. finding the point on the
refractive surface(s) along the path to a light sample, which satisfies Fermat's
principle for a given microfacet normal and the path's end points. This
technique involves walking on the "specular manifold" using a pseudo newton
solver. Such a manifold is defined by the specular constraint matrix from the
manifold exploration framework [2]. For each refractive interface, this
constraint is defined by enforcing that the generalized half-vector projection
onto the interface local tangent plane is null. The newton solver guides the
walk by linearizing the manifold locally before reprojecting the linear solution
onto the refractive surface. See paper [1] for more details about the technique
itself and [3] for the half-vector light transport formulation, from which it is
derived.

The code for this samping technique was inserted at the light sampling stage
(direct lighting). If the walk is successful, it turns off path regularization
using a specialized flag in the path state (PATH_MNEE_SUCCESS). This flag tells
the integrator not to blur the brdf roughness further down the path (in a child
ray created from BSDF sampling). In addition, using a cascading mechanism of
flag values, we cull connections to caustic lights for this and children rays,
which should be resolved through MNEE.
This mechanism also cancels the MIS bsdf counter part at the casutic receiver
depth, in essence leaving MNEE as the only sampling technique from receivers
through refractive casters to caustic lights. This choice might not be optimal
when the light gets large wrt to the receiver, though this is usually not when
you want to use MNEE.
This connection culling strategy removes a fair amount of fireflies, at the cost
of introducing a slight bias. Because of the selective nature of the culling
mechanism, reflective caustics still benefit from the native path
regularization, which further removes fireflies on other surfaces (bouncing
light off casters).

Override layers are a standard feature of Alembic, where archives can override
data from other archives, provided that the hierarchies match.
This is useful for modifying a UV map, updating an animation, or even creating
some sort of LOD system where low resolution meshes are swapped by high resolution
versions.
It is possible to add UV maps and vertex colors using this system, however, they
will only appear in the spreadsheet editor when viewing evaluated data, as the UV
map and Vertex color UI only show data present on the original mesh.
Implementation wise, this adds a `CacheFileLayer` data structure to the `CacheFile`
DNA, as well as some operators and UI to present and manage the layers. For both
the Alembic importer and the Cycles procedural, the main change is creating an
archive from a list of filepaths, instead of a single one.
After importing the base file through the regular import operator, layers can be added
to or removed from the `CacheFile` via the UI list under the `Override Layers` panel
located in the Mesh Sequence Cache modifier. Layers can also be moved around or

The storage of IDProperty UI data (min, max, default value, etc) is
quite complicated. For every property, retrieving a single one of these
values involves three string lookups. First for the "_RNA_UI" group
property, then another for a group with the property's name, then for
the data value name. Not only is this inefficient, it's hard to reason
about, unintuitive, and not at all self-explanatory.
This commit replaces that system with a UI data struct directly in the
IDProperty. If it's not used, the only cost is of a NULL pointer. Beyond
storing the description, name, and RNA subtype, derived structs are used
to store type specific UI data like min and max.
Note that this means that addons using (abusing) the `_RNA_UI` custom
property will have to be changed. A few places in the addons repository
will be changed after this commit with D9919.
**Before**
Before, first the _RNA_UI subgroup is retrieved the _RNA_UI group,
then the subgroup for the original property, then specific UI data
is accessed like any other IDProperty.
```
prop = rna_idprop_ui_prop_get(idproperties_owner, "prop_name", create=True)
prop["min"] = 1.0
```
**After**
After, the `id_properties_ui` function for RNA structs returns a python
object specifically for managing an IDProperty's UI data.
```
ui_data = idproperties_owner.id_properties_ui("prop_name")
ui_data.update(min=1.0)
```
In addition to `update`, there are now other functions:
- `as_dict`: Returns a dictionary of the property's UI data.
- `clear`: Removes the property's UI data.
- `update_from`: Copy UI data between properties,
even if they have different owners.

When introduced in {rB61050f75b13e} this was actually working (meaning
it checked the Outliner OB_RESTRICT_RENDER flag and skipped the object if
desired).
Behavior has since then been commented in rBae6e9401abb7 and apparently
refactored out in rB2917df21adc8.
If checked, it seemed to be working (objects marked non-renderable in
the Outliner were pruned from the export), however unchecking that
option did not include them in the export.
Now it changed - for the worse if you like - in rBa95f86359673 which
made it so if "Renderable Objects" only is checked, it will still export
objects invisible in renders. So since we now have the non-functional
option with a broken/misleading default, it is better to just remove it
entirely.
In fact it has been superseeded by the "Visible Objects" option (this
does the same thing: depsgraph is evaluated in render mode) and as a
second step (and to make this even clearer) a choice whether
Render or Viewport evaluation is used can be added (just like the USD
exporter has). When that choice is explicit, it's also clear which
visibility actually matters.
This is breaking API usage, should be in release notes.

This constraint can be naturally viewed as a prototype for a future
4x4 matrix math node (or subset thereof), since its basic semantics
already is matrix assignment. Thus it makes sense to add math options
to this constraint to increase flexibility in the meantime.
This patch adds support for several operations that would be useful:
- An option to remove shear in the incoming target matrix.
Shear is known to cause issues for various mathematical operations,
so an option to remove it at key points is useful.
Constraints based on Euler like Copy Rotation and Limit Rotation
already have always enabled shear removal built in, because their
math doesn't work correctly with shear.
In the future node system shear removal would be a separate node
(and currently Limit Rotation can be used as a Remove Shear constraint).
However removing shear from the result of the target space conversion
before mixing (similar to Copy Rotation) has to be built into
Copy Transforms itself as an option.
- More ways to combine the target and owner matrices.
Similar to multiple Inherit Scale modes for parenting, there are
multiple ways one may want to combine matrices based on context.
This implements 3 variants for each of the Before/After modes
(one of them already existing).
- Full implements regular matrix multiplication as the most basic
option. The downside is the risk of creating shear.
- Aligned emulates the 'anti-shear' Aligned Inherit Scale mode,
and basically uses Full for location, and Split for rotation/scale.
(This choice already existed.)
- Split Channels combines location, rotation and scale separately.
Looking at D7547 there is demand for Split Channels in some cases,
so I think it makes sense to include it in Copy Transforms too, so that
the Mix menu items can be identical for it and the Action constraint.

When building opensubdiv with more aggressive optimization flags

The differences in vertex position is within the 1e-6 range, which I

any modifications. I've updated two tests in the modifier test file and
script to make it pass (listed below).
Updated following test categories:
1. Decimate test
Here there was a subdiv modifier applied before the actual decimate
modifier. Because the decimate modifier creates a queue of potential
vertices it can remove, it is highly sensitive to even small changes as
it drastically changes in which order the vertices are decimated in.
As this test should only be testing the decimate modifier, I pre-applied
the subdiv modifier in the test file.
2. RandomCubeModifier
For these tests I removed the subdiv modifier as well. As with decimate,
a small change in vertex position here can lead to quite different

Write custom properties (aka ID properties) to Alembic, to the
`.userProperties` compound property.
Manifest Task: https://developer.blender.org/T50725
Scalar properties (so single-value/non-array properties) are written as
single-element array properties to Alembic. This is also what's done by
Houdini and Maya exporters, so it seems to be the standard way of doing
things. It also simplifies the implementation.
Two-dimensional arrays are flattened by concatenating all the numbers
into a single array. This is because ID properties have a limited type
system. This means that a 3x3 "matrix" could just as well be a list of
three 3D vectors.
Alembic has two container properties to store custom data:
- `.userProperties`, which is meant for properties that aren't
necessarily understood by other software packages, and
- `.arbGeomParams`, which can contain the same kind of data as
`.userProperties`, but can also specify that these vary per face of a
mesh. This property is mostly intended for renderers.
Most industry packages write their custom data to `.arbGeomParams`.
However, given their goals I feel that `.userProperties` is the more
appropriate one for Blender's ID Properties.
The code is a bit more involved than I would have liked. An
`ABCAbstractWriter` has a `uniqueptr` to its `CustomPropertiesExporter`,
but the `CustomPropertiesExporter` also has a pointer back to its owning
`ABCAbstractWriter`. It's the latter pointer that I'm not too happy
with, but it has a reason. Getting the aforementioned `.userProperties`
from the Alembic library will automatically create it if it doesn't
exist already. If it's not used to actually add custom properties to, it
will crash the Alembic CLI tools (and maybe others too). This is what
the pointer back to the `ABCAbstractWriter` is used for: to get the
`.userProperties` at the last moment, when it's 100% sure at least one
custom property will be written.

Tests are adjusted and still pass.
Each duplicated (a.k.a. instanced) object has a Persistent ID, which
identifies a dupli within the context of its duplicator. This ID
consists of several numbers when there are nested duplis (for example a
mesh instancing empties on its vertices, where each empty instances a
collection). When exporting to Alembic/USD, these are used to uniquely
name the duplicated objects in the export.
This commit reverses the order of the persistent ID numbers, so that the
first number identifies the first level of recursion. This produces
trees like this:
ABC
`--Triangle
|--Triangle
|--Empty-1
| `--Pole-1-0
| |--Pole
| `--Block-1-1
| `--Block
|--Empty
| `--Pole-0

| `--Block-1
| `--Block
|--Empty-2
| `--Pole-2-0
| |--Pole
| `--Block-2-1
| `--Block
`--Empty-0
`--Pole-0-0
|--Pole
`--Block-0-1
`--Block
It is now clearer that `Pole-2-0` and `Block-2-1` are instanced by
`Empty-2`. Before this commit, they would have been named `Pole-0-2` and
`Block-1-2`.
Exporting a scene to USD or Alembic would fail when there are multiple
duplicates of parent & child objects, duplicated by the same object. For
example, this happens when such a hierarchy of objects is contained in a
collection, and that collection is instanced multiple times by mesh
vertices. The problem here is that the 'parent' pointer of each
duplicated object points to the real parent; Blender would not figure
out properly which duplicated parent should be used.
This is now resolved by keeping track of the persistent ID of each
duplicated instance, which makes it possible to reconstruct the
parent-child relations of duplicated objects. This does use up some
memory for each dupli, so it could be heavy to export a Spring scene
(with all the pebbles and leaves), but it's only a small addition on top
of the USD/Alembic writer objects that have to be created anyway. At
least with this patch, they're created correctly.
Code-wise, the following changes are made:
- The export graph (that maps export parent to its export children) used
to have as its key (Object, Duplicator). This is insufficient to
correctly distinguish between multiple duplis of the same object by
the same duplicator, so this is now extended to (Object, Duplicator,
Persistent ID). To make this possible, new classes `ObjectIdentifier`
and `PersistentID` are introduced.
- Finding the parent of a duplicated object is done via its persistent
ID. In Python notation, the code first tries to find the parent
instance where `child_persistent_id[1:] == parent_persistent_id[1:]`.
If that fails, the dupli with persistent ID `child_persistent_id[1:]`
is used as parent.

The Alembic exporter has been restructured by leverages the
`AbstractHierarchyIterator` introduced by the USD exporter. The produced
Alembic files have not changed much (details below), as the Alembic
writing code has simply been moved from the old exporter to the new. How
the export hierarchy is handled changed a lot, though, and also the way
in which transforms are computed. As a result, T71395 is fixed.
Differences between the old and new exporter, in terms of the produced
Alembic file:
- Duplicated objects now have a unique numerical suffix.
- Matrices are computed differently, namely by simply computing the
evaluated transform of the object relative to the evaluated transform
of its export-parent. This fixes {T71395}, but otherwise should
produce the same result as before (but with simpler code).
Compared to the old Alembic exporter, Subdivision modifiers are now
disabled in a cleaner, more efficient way (they are disabled when
exporting with the "Apply Subdivisions" option is unchecked). Previously
the exporter would move to a new frame, disable the modifier, evaluate
the object, and enable the modifier again. This is now done before
exporting starts, and modifiers are only restored when exporting ends.
Some issues with the old Alembic exporter that have NOT been fixed in
this patch:
- Exporting NURBS patches and curves (see T49114 for example).
- Exporting flattened hierarchy in combination with dupli-objects. This
seems to be broken in the old Alembic exporter as well, but nobody
reported this yet.

Blender now always exports transforms as as "inheriting", as Blender has
no concept of parenting without inheriting the transform.
Previously only objects with an actual parent were marked as
"inheriting", and parentless objects as "non-inheriting". However,
certain packages (for example USD's Alembic plugin) are incompatible
with non-inheriting transforms and will completely ignore such
transforms, placing all such objects at the world origin.
When importing non-inheriting transforms from Alembic, Blender will
break the parent-child relation and thus force the child to (correctly)
interpret the transform as world matrix.
Other types already had spaces, periods, and colons replaced by
underscores. The upcoming Alembic exporter (based on the
`AbstractHierarcyIterator` class) will be more consistent and apply the
same naming rules everywhere. This is in preparation for that change.
The `get_…_name()` functions in `abc_util.{cc,h}` will be removed then.
Previously the Alembic exporter exported a mesh object to
`{object.name}/{object.name}Shape`. Now it exports to
`{object.name}/{mesh.name}` instead. The same change also applies to
other object data types.
Note that the code now is a bit hackish, as `m_name` is set even in
cases where it isn't used. This hackishness was already there, though,
but it's now just more visible. This will all be cleaned up when the
Alembic exporter is ported to use the `AbstractHierarchyImporter`

Main change from user side, besides that all pointers should now be

Will open a task to check whether we actually still want that behavior
(and re-code it in a more correct way then).
This is the main part of work done here, it aims at uniformizing and
sanitizing that 'deep copy' process for supported IDs (currently scenes,
collections and objects).
Note that there will be more follow up commits after that one, but this
should be the most risky and changing one.
This was caused by a side-effect of our exporting code's memory
management (Alembic considers data "written" and "final" when its C++
objects go out of scope) in combination with my change in
rB65574463fa2d. I removed an "only export UVs on the first frame" clause
because it was unclear why this restriction was there. As it turns out,
it breaks the export of the 2nd and subsequent UV maps on an animated
mesh. Effectively, on every frame the Alembic library thought we want to
create a new UV map, instead of continuing to write a new frame of data
to the existing one.
This is resolved by keeping a reference to the C++ objects for the UV
maps in memory while the exporter is running.
When the Child Of constraint is owned by a bone, before the constraint is
run the matrix is converted from world to pose space. However, setting the
inverse should also take the armature object's transform into account.
Blender was not configured to exit with non-zero return code on Python errors.
A bunch of tests worked around this but not all. This removes the need for such
workarounds.
This uses the same framework as automated modifier tests. It adds a physics
modifier, bakes and compares vertex coordinates on the end frame.

In test harness for modifier testing, now run mesh validation
on output mesh. Also, fix printing so it interleaves properly.
CentOS on the buildbot still runs Python 3.6, which is also used for the
unit tests. This means that the tests can't use language features that
are available to Blender itself. And testing with a different version of
Python than will be used by the actual code seems like a bad idea to me.
This commit adds `TEST_PYTHON_EXECUTABLE` as advanced CMake option. This
will allow us to set a specific Python executable when we need it. When
not set, a platform-specific default will be used:
- On Windows, the `python….exe` from the installation directory. This is
just like before this patch, except that this patch adds the
overridability.
- On macOS/Linux, the `${PYTHON_EXECUTABLE}` as found by CMake.
Every platform should now have a value (configured by the user or
detected by CMake) for `TEST_PYTHON_EXE`, so there is no need to allow
running without. This also removes the need to have some Python files
marked as executable.
If `TEST_PYTHON_EXE` is not user-configured, and thus the above default
is used, a status message is logged by CMake. I've seen this a lot in
other projects, and I like that it shows which values are auto-detected.
However, it's not common in Blender, so if we want we can either remove
it now, or remove it after the buildbot has been set up correctly.
