This commit makes sure Linux and Windows buildbots are using OpenSubdiv
and also enables OpenSubdiv by default on Windows.
OSX is kept disabled still, this is due to OpenGL restrictions which are
not solved in any way yet.
Linux is defaults to OpenSubdiv disabled because it needs precompiled
library.
The documentation could be found there:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Nazg-gul/OpenSubdiv
- rename WITH_EXTERNAL_AUDASPACE to WITH_SYSTEM_AUDASPACE.
- rename C/PYAUDASPACE to AUDASPACE_C/PY
- simplifying cmake defines and includes.
- fixing include paths and enabling WITH_SYSTEM_AUDASPACE for windows.
- fixing scons building.
- other minor build system fixes.
Previously Linux had disabled libs that were enabled on other platforms.
Use a reduced feature set on all, since libs such as Jack & OSL aren't totally reliable on Win/OSX.
Keep 'option_defaults_init' since platform maintainers may want to adjust later.
This commit contains all the remained parts needed for initial integration of
OpenSubdiv into Blender's subdivision surface code. Includes both GPU and CPU
backends which works in the following way:
- When SubSurf modifier is the last in the modifiers stack then GPU pipeline
of OpenSubdiv is used, making viewport performance as fast as possible.
This also requires graphscard with GLSL 1.5 support. If this requirement is
not met, then no GPU pipeline is used at all.
- If SubSurf is not a last modifier or if DerivesMesh is being evaluated for
rendering then CPU limit evaluation API from OpenSubdiv is used. This only
replaces the legacy evaluation code from CCGSubSurf_legacy, but keeps CCG
structures exactly the same as they used to be for ages now.
This integration is fully covered with ifdef and not enabled by default
because there are several TODOs to be solved first:
- Face varying data interpolation is not really cleanly implemented for GPU
in OpenSubdiv 3.0. It is also not implemented for limit evaluation API.
This basically means we'll have really hard time supporting UVs.
- Limit evaluation only works with adaptivly subdivided meshes so far, which
basically means all the points of CCG are pushed to the limit. This gives
different result from old code.
- There are some serious optimizations possible on the topology refiner
creation, which would speed up initial OpenSubdiv mesh creation.
- There are some hardcoded asumptions in the GPU and DerivedMesh areas which
could be generalized.
That's something where Antony and Campbell can help, making it so the code
is structured in a way which is reusable by all planned viewport projects.
- There are also some workarounds in the dependency graph to make sure OpenGL
buffers are only freed from the main thread.
Those who'll be wanting to make experiments with this code should grab dev
branch (NOT master) from
https://github.com/Nazg-Gul/OpenSubdiv/tree/dev
There are some patches applied in there which we're working on on getting
into upstream.
It is rather annoying attitude nowadays to use const qualifier all over the
place, including using it for multi-dimensional arrays. This isn't really
supported in GCC prior to version 5.0 because it considers such an arrays
to be a "pointer to a const pointer" which gives implicit casting errors.
It's not possible to disable this particular type of warnings treated as
errors in any GCC version prior to 5.0 as well, meaning currently usage of
-Werror globally in Blender code is not possible at all.
This commit makes it possible to use -Werror in areas which are complaint
with older GCC versions. New advanced CMake options are:
- WITH_COMPOSITOR_WERROR
- WITH_LIBMV_WERROR
- WITH_CYCLES_WERROR
option.
This makes sense, since contexts get created at runtime, there is little
reason to require recompilation for this.
Only works on linux currently, will be doing more OSs later
Performance tests now have their own CMake macro, which ensures they do not get
added to ctest list, so we do not have to bother about them anymore, and can always
build them (when GTests are enabled, of course).
This commit integrates the work done so far on the new dependency graph system,
where goal was to replace legacy depsgraph with the new one, supporting loads of
neat features like:
- More granular dependency relation nature, which solves issues with fake cycles
in the dependencies.
- Move towards all-animatable, by better integration of drivers into the system.
- Lay down some basis for upcoming copy-on-write, overrides and so on.
The new system is living side-by-side with the previous one and disabled by
default, so nothing will become suddenly broken. The way to enable new depsgraph
is to pass `--new-depsgraph` command line argument.
It's a bit early to consider the system production-ready, there are some TODOs
and issues were discovered during the merge period, they'll be addressed ASAP.
But it's important to merge, because it's the only way to attract artists to
really start testing this system.
There are number of assorted documents related on the design of the new system:
* http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Aligorith/GSoC2013_Depsgraph#Design_Documents
* http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Nazg-gul/DependencyGraph
There are also some user-related information online:

* http://code.blender.org/2015/03/more-dependency-graph-tricks/
Kudos to everyone who was involved into the project:
- Joshua "Aligorith" Leung -- design specification, initial code
- Lukas "lukas_t" Toenne -- integrating code into blender, with further fixes
- Sergey "Sergey" "Sharybin" -- some mocking around, trying to wrap up the
project and so
- Bassam "slikdigit" Kurdali -- stressing the new system, reporting all the
issues and recording/writing documentation.
- Everyone else who i forgot to mention here :)
This commit makes some preliminary fixes and tweaks aimed to make blender
compilable with C++11 feature set. This includes:
- Build system attribute to enable C++11 featureset.
It's for sure default OFF, but easy to enable to have a play around with
it and make sure all the stuff is compilable before we go C++11 for real.
- Changes in Compositor to use non-named cl_int structure fields.
This is because __STRICT_ANSI__ is defined by default by GCC and OpenCL
does not use named fields in this case.
- Changes to TYPE_CHECK() related on lack of typeof() in C++11
This uses decltype() instead with some trickery to make sure returned type
is not a reference.
- Changes for auto_ptr in Freestyle
This actually conditionally switches between auto_ptr and unique_ptr since
auto_ptr is deprecated in C++11. Seems to be not strictly needed but still
nice to be ready for such an update anyway/
This all based on changes form depsgraph_refactor branch apart from the weird
changes which were made in order to support MinGW compilation. Those parts of
change would need to be carefully reviewed again after official move to gcc49
in MinGW.
Tested on Linux with GCC-4.7 and Clang-3.5, other platforms are not tested and
likely needs some more tweaks.

We need to register the exception handler slightly differently here, as
well as adding DbgHelp as a library, but according to docs it should be
supported in recent Windows editions (Win XP included even).
We can try it first and revert if there are issues.
patch number D706 with changes:
- WITH_GPU_DEBUG just creates a debug context (and enables the debug messaging
system functions) but leaves the checks we had intact. Old patch
added the debug functionality only if we had the flag on to save some
performance.
Rationale here is that we might not want to recompile blender just to get
the extra information, and having users start blender with a -d flag to
get the extra information is also useful for bug reports. Those checks already
existed and most expensive ones are hidden behind a debug mode check
so performance should not be that bad.
- Did some cleanup of existing functionality:
When things go wrong blender side, just print the error,
don't check for GL errors first.
- Did not port changes needed for GLES to regular glew.h
- Got rid of duplicate or very similar new functionality.
Generally, code is more moving things around/cleanup and should work exactly
as before apart from the debug context, so it's safe to add even now.
It also provides a nice substitute function for glu error descriptions
CMake 2.8 doesn't search /usr/include/SDL2, which is the include directory
for SDL 2.x on Ubuntu Linux (and possibly others). This results in SDL 1.2
headers being found when WITH_SDL_DYNLOAD=OFF, and our shipped SDL 2.0
headers when WITH_SDL_DYNLOAD=ON. This patch ensures that in both
cases the correct SDL headers are used.

It's really handy to have blender linked against jemalloc because of
much better memory fragmentation handling by that library.
To be noted: if jemalloc library is not found it'll be disabled with
message about that, no compilation error should happen.
Doesn't mean we're 100% ready for the transition, but need to start somewhere
anyway. Changes:
- OSL is no longer supporting cpp and requires usage of Boost Wave.
So now Wave component of Boost is optionally demanded when looking for the
Boost libraries if OSL is enabled.
Only did this for Linux, MSVC seems already using Wave. Not sure about OSX.
- Because of the same reason OSL should be moved prior Boost for linker.
- Whole archive trick makes it so linking fails with duplicated symbols, so
removed it for the new OSL. Didn't see issues with this so far.
- Added some code to check OSL version on Linux. Would need to move all that
to FindOpenShadingLanguage.cmake which we can get from Cycles standalone
repository.
So in theory no affect on current stup would be made at all.
- Added some tweaks to buildbot files. It now seems to be happy with the new
OSL libraries, but again, those tweaks are not in action yet.
All this was tested on Linux only. Win/OSX might still need some tweaks to
support new OSL.
P.S. This doesn't mean we're pushing OSL update yet, just making some
preliminary tweaks to avoid entropy of PITA when we'll actually want to
switch.
