These are now included in the OSL shared libraries, so no reason to

Happens with systems which do not provide GOLD linker: the linking state
would failing with some missing symbols and print about missing libsycl.so.6.
Seems that BFD linker expects to resolve all symbols, even the indirectly
used ones. This is somewhat counter-intuitive and is not how LLD, GOLD,
or MOLD worls.
The current state of the CMakeLists.txt does request the cycles_bvh to be
linked against SYCL_LIBRARIES. However, the SYCL was only requested to be found
if WITH_CYCLES_DEVICE_ONEAP is true.
Arguably the SYCL_LIBRARIES should only be linked-in into cycles_bvh if
EMBREE_STATIC_LIB, but that does not solve the issue with BFD.
This change makes it so the SYCL is requested to be found if the oneAPI
device is enabled, or if the Embree is detected to require/use SYCL
support.

HIP RT enables AMD hardware ray tracing on RDNA2 and above, and falls back to a
to shader implementation for older graphics cards. It offers an average 25%
sample rendering rate improvement in Cycles benchmarks, on a W6800 card.
The ray tracing feature functions are accessed through HIP RT SDK, available on
GPUOpen. HIP RT traversal functionality is pre-compiled in bitcode format and
shipped with the SDK.
This is not yet enabled as there are issues to be resolved, but landing the
code now makes testing and further changes easier.
Known limitations:
* Not working yet with current public AMD drivers.
* Visual artifact in motion blur.
* One of the buffers allocated for traversal has a static size. Allocating it
dynamically would reduce memory usage.
* This is for Windows only currently, no Linux support.

empty strings in some cases.
- Check CMAKE_THREAD_LIBS_INIT is set before use as CMake docs

automatically disable features. set_and_warn_library_found could be

are complete and only test for availability when libraries are just
added.

sycl::info::device::ext_intel_* descriptors are deprecated,
replaced with sycl::ext::intel::info::device:: that are available from
6.0+, for which we now check version in CMake.
Changing volume parameters during rendering could cause a crash
when guiding was enabled. It was due to an unintialized state paramter
at the beginning of the path tracing process.
In addition guiding is disabled when dealing with almost delta volumes
(i.e., g close to 1.0 or -1.0).
To avoid issues with install_deps. If we more generally switch to using
CMake configs then perhaps this code can be deduplicated again or at
least simplified.
Debug and Release libs are different libs on
Windows and will give linker errors when you
try to mix and match them.
This changes retrieves both libs and fills the
OPENPGL_LIBRARIES variable appropriately resolving
the linker error.
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.

Fix typo in blender_release.cmake, and ensure that "make release" still works

This cleans up the OpenGL build flags and linking.
It additionally also removes some dead code.
One of these dead code paths is WITH_X11_ALPHA which actually never was
active even with the build flag on. The call to use this was never
called because the default initializer for GHOST was set to have it off
per default. Nothing called this function with a boolean value to enable it.
These cleanups are needed to support true headless OpenGL rendering.
Without these cleanups libepoxy will fail to load the correct OpenGL
Libraries as we have already linked them to the blender binary.

With libepoxy we can choose between EGL and GLX at runtime, as well as
dynamically open EGL and GLX libraries without linking to them.
This will make it possible to build with Wayland, EGL, GLVND support while
still running on systems that only have X11, GLX and libGL. It also paves
the way for headless rendering through EGL.
libepoxy is a new library dependency, and is included in the precompiled
libraries. GLEW is no longer a dependency, and WITH_SYSTEM_GLEW was removed.

This patch adds a new Cycles device with similar functionality to the
existing GPU devices. Kernel compilation and runtime interaction happen
via oneAPI DPC++ compiler and SYCL API.
This implementation is primarly focusing on Intel® Arc™ GPUs and other
future Intel GPUs. The first supported drivers are 101.1660 on Windows
and 22.10.22597 on Linux.
The necessary tools for compilation are:
- A SYCL compiler such as oneAPI DPC++ compiler or
https://github.com/intel/llvm
- Intel® oneAPI Level Zero which is used for low level device queries:
https://github.com/oneapi-src/level-zero
- To optionally generate prebuilt graphics binaries: Intel® Graphics
Compiler All are included in Linux precompiled libraries on svn:
https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/lib The same goes for
Windows precompiled binaries but for the graphics compiler, available
as "Intel® Graphics Offline Compiler for OpenCL™ Code" from
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/tool/oneapi-standalone-components.html,
for which path can be set as OCLOC_INSTALL_DIR.
Being based on the open SYCL standard, this implementation could also be
extended to run on other compatible non-Intel hardware in the future.

* Leave code for building the render delegate against other applications and

* Bring external libs code in sync with standalone repo, adding various missing

Adds support for linking with some of the dependencies of a USD
build instead of the precompiled libraries from Blender, specifically
OpenSubdiv, OpenVDB and TBB. Other dependencies keep using the
precompiled libraries from Blender, since they are linked statically
anyway so it does't matter as much. Plus they have interdependencies
that are difficult to resolve when only using selected libraries from
the USD build and can't simply assume that USD was built with all
of them.
This patch also makes building the Hydra render delegate via the
standalone repository work and fixes various small issues I ran into
in general on Windows (e.g. the use of both fixed paths and
`find_package` did not seem to work correctly). Building both the
standalone Cycles application and the Hydra render delegate at the
same time is supported now as well (the paths in the USD plugin JSON
file are updated accordingly).
All that needs to be done now to build is to specify a `PXR_ROOT`
or `USD_ROOT` CMake variable pointing to the USD installation,
everything else is taken care of automatically (CMake targets are
loaded from the `pxrTargets.cmake` of USD and linked into the
render delegate and OpenSubdiv, OpenVDB and TBB are replaced
with those from USD when they exist).

Currently only supports single image frames (no animation possible).
If quality slider is set to 100 then lossless compression will be used,
otherwise lossy compression is used.
Gives about 35% reduction of filesize save when re-saving splash screens with lossless
compression.
Also saves much faster, up to 15x faster than PNG with a better compression ratio as a plus.
Note, this is currently left disabled until we have WebP libs (see T95206)

GLUT does not support offscreen contexts, which is required for the new
display driver. So we use SDL instead. Note that this requires using a
system SDL package, the Blender precompiled SDL does not include the video
subsystem.
There is currently no text display support, instead info is printed to
the terminal. This would require adding an embedded font and GLSL shaders,
or using GUI library.
Another improvement to be made is supporting OpenColorIO display transforms,
right now we assume Rec.709 scene linear and display.
All OpenGL, GLEW and SDL code was move out of core cycles and into
app/opengl. This serves as a template for apps that want to integrate
Cycles interactive rendering, with a simple OpenGLDisplayDriver example.
In general this would be adapted to the graphics API and color management
used by the app.
