Currently only two mappings are supported by API, which is Repeat (old behavior)
and new Clip behavior. Internally this extension is being converted to periodic
flag which was already supported but wasn't exposed.
There's no support for OpenCL yet because of the way how we pack images into a
single texture.
Those settings are not exposed to UI or anywhere else and there should be no
functional changes so far.
Code there started becoming a bit too big, by splitting it up it'll make it
easier to do improvements or extending the features in there.
The layout is not totally final yet, would need to try de-duplicating parts
of code from split kernel with non-split integrators,
This commit re-shuffles code in split kernel once again and makes it so common
parts which is in the headers is only responsible to making all the work needed
for specified ray index. Getting ray index, checking for it's validity and
enqueuing tasks are now happening in the device specified part of the kernel.
This actually makes sense because enqueuing is indeed device-specified and i.e.
with CUDA we'll want to enqueue kernels from kernel and avoid CPU roundtrip.
TODO:
- Kernel comments are still placed in the common header files, but since queue
related stuff is not passed to those functions those comments might need to
be split as well.
Just currently read them considering that they're also covering the way how
all devices are invoking the common code path.
- Arguments might need to be wrapped into KernelGlobals, so we don't ened to
pass all them around as function arguments.
Since the kernel split work we're now having quite a few of new files, majority
of which are related on the kernel entry points. Keeping those files in the
root kernel folder will eventually make it really hard to follow which files are
actual implementation of Cycles kernel.
Those files are now moved to kernel/kernels/<device_type>. This way adding extra
entry points will be less noisy. It is also nice to have all device-specific
files grouped together.
Another change is in the way how split kernel invokes logic. Previously all the
logic was implemented directly in the .cl files, which makes it a bit tricky to
re-use the logic across other devices. Since we'll likely be looking into doing
same split work for CUDA devices eventually it makes sense to move logic from
.cl files to header files. Those files are stored in kernel/split. This does not
mean the header files will not give error messages when tried to be included
from other devices and their arguments will likely be changed, but having such
separation is a good start anyway.
There should be no functional changes.
