Listing the "Blender Foundation" as copyright holder implied the Blender
Foundation holds copyright to files which may include work from many
developers.
While keeping copyright on headers makes sense for isolated libraries,
Blender's own code may be refactored or moved between files in a way
that makes the per file copyright holders less meaningful.
Copyright references to the "Blender Foundation" have been replaced with
"Blender Authors", with the exception of `./extern/` since these this
contains libraries which are more isolated, any changed to license
headers there can be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Some directories in `./intern/` have also been excluded:
- `./intern/cycles/` it's own `AUTHORS` file is planned.
- `./intern/opensubdiv/`.
An "AUTHORS" file has been added, using the chromium projects authors
file as a template.
Design task: #110784
Ref !110783.
This is the minimal change required to start using modern CMake in the
blender build system. This change is designed to allow small
incremental changes to the build system rather than doing it in one
big bang which would be unmaintainable (for me)
The biggest functional change is, previously all libraries in the
`LIB` section of a `blender_add_lib` call had the `INTERFACE` scope,
which is rarely, if ever the correct scope. This diff changes this to
`PRIVATE`
Concrete implications of this diff :
The `LIB`, `INC` and `INC_SYS` sections of an `blender_add_lib` call
now allow scoping keywords (`PUBLIC`, `PRIVATE,` `INTERFACE`) to
declare the scope of the dependency.
Right now the only library using any modern cmake is
`bf_intern_atomic` which is an header only interface library that will
just advertise its include directories.
This allows us to clean up any `CMakeLists.txt` that adds
`../../../intern/atomic` to its `INC` section to remove it in `INC` by
adding a `PRIVATE bf_intern_atomic` to the `LIB` section.

OpenEXR has some dependecies that other other modules in Blender
requires. When disabling OpenEXR these dependecies could not match
and building blender would fail.
This PR disables the next options when `WITH_IMAGE_OPENEXR=Off`
- `WITH_OPENVDB`
- `WITH_ALEMBIC`
- `WITH_VULKAN_BACKEND`
- `WITH_CYCLES_OSL`

Paths to vulkan libraries, paths and related components were
hardcoded in the platform cmake file. This patch separates
this by using adding CMake modules for Vulkan and ShaderC.
This change has only been applied to the macOs configuration as
that is currently our main platform for development. Other platforms
will be added during the development of the Vulkan back-end.
MoltenVK wasn't found as it was previous part of lib/vulkan.
as lib/vulkan now doesn't contain
the full sdk, we will use a moltenvk folder.
At this moment the moltenvk folder isn't filled, but will eventually be.
This makes it convenient to build blender without referencing
pre-compiled libraries which don't always work on newer Linux systems.
Previously I had to rename ../lib while creating the CMakeCache.txt
to ensure my systems libraries would be used.
This change ensures LIBDIR is undefined when WITH_LIBS_PRECOMPILED is
disabled, so any accidental use warns with CMake's `--warn-unused-vars`
argument is given.
These warnings can reveal errors in logic, so quiet them by checking
if the features are enabled before using variables or by assigning
empty strings in some cases.
- Check CMAKE_THREAD_LIBS_INIT is set before use as CMake docs
note that this may be left unset if it's not needed.
- Remove BOOST/OPENVDB/VULKAN references when disable.
- Define INC_SYS even when empty.
- Remove PNG_INC from freetype (not defined anywhere).

Shared libraries and USD plugins will be placed in the same folder, where USD

This adds a vulkan backend to GHOST. The code was extracted from the
tmp-vulkan branch. The main difference with the original code is that
GHOST isn't responsible for fallback. For Metal backend there is already
an idea that the GPU module is responsible for the fallback, not the system.
For Blender we target Vulkan 1.2 at the time of this patch.
MoltenVK (needed to convert Vulkan calls to Metal) has been added as
a separate package.
This patch isn't useful for end-users, currently when starting blender with
`--gpu-backend vulkan` it would crash as the `VBBackend` doesn't initialize
the expected global structs in the GPU module.
Validated to be working on Windows and Apple. Linux still needs to be tested.

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.
It fixes SYCL runtime issues in Debug builds that were due to mixing
Release and Debug MSVC runtimes.
This commit also removes specific handling of dpcpp compiler executable
to simplify the CMake implementation. Using it like clang++ works and
clang++ executable is also available from Intel oneAPI DPC++ compiler in
case it doesn't.
Build against Python from precompiled libraries by default, instead of
requiring framework from python.org package install. The resulting bpy module
can still be used with any Python install of the same version.
Use the same CMake find module as Linux. This simplifies code, and makes it
possible to manually set PYTHON_* variables in CMake configuration.
Remove WITH_PYTHON_FRAMEWORK option for regular Blender build, as this doesn't
work well due to missing required Python packages. Advanced users can still
set PYTHON_ROOT_DIR=/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.10 for
the same result.
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.

When building blender as a python module, such as for inclusion in a
wheel, it is not permitted to link against python libraries.
This diff does so by simply unsetting the library when building blender
as a python module, instead of the more heavyweight solution of

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

Also saves much faster, up to 15x faster than PNG with a better compression ratio as a plus.

rBc1909770e7f192574ea62449dd14b4254637e604 introduced "PXR_LIB_PREFIX" for building the
dependencies, so only makes sense to use the same name in the Hydra render delegate CMake too
This patch adds a Hydra render delegate to Cycles, allowing Cycles to be used for rendering
in applications that provide a Hydra viewport. The implementation was written from scratch
against Cycles X, for integration into the Blender repository to make it possible to continue
developing it in step with the rest of Cycles. For this purpose it follows the style of the rest of
the Cycles code and can be built with a CMake option
(`WITH_CYCLES_HYDRA_RENDER_DELEGATE=1`) similar to the existing standalone version
of Cycles.
Since Hydra render delegates need to be built against the exact USD version and other
dependencies as the target application is using, this is intended to be built separate from
Blender (`WITH_BLENDER=0` CMake option) and with support for library versions different
from what Blender is using. As such the CMake build scripts for Windows had to be modified
slightly, so that the Cycles Hydra render delegate can e.g. be built with MSVC 2017 again
even though Blender requires MSVC 2019 now, and it's possible to specify custom paths to
the USD SDK etc. The codebase supports building against the latest USD release 22.03 and all
the way back to USD 20.08 (with some limitations).
