This is not as much a fix as a work around, but given the real
involves replacing how we build fftw, it is not eligible for 2.83
which is in BCON3 already.
The root of the issue lies with (how we build) fftw3
The first issue is: fftw does not build with MSVC, there are other
dependencies that are not compatible with MSVC and for those we
build the libraries required with mingw64, same for fftw
The second issue is: for reasons unknown we really really really
liked all deps to link statically so wherever possible we did so.
Now during the building of the fftw it linked a few symbols from
libgcc (which we do not ship) like __chkstk_ms, for which we passed
some flags to stop generating calls to it. Problem solved! There
is no way this could possibly turn around and bite us in the rear.
fast forward to today mystery crashes that look like a race condition.
What is happening is, we tell the linker that each thread will require
a 2-megabyte stack, now if every thread immediately allocated 2 megs,
that be 'rough' on the memory usage. So, what happens is (for all apps
not just blender), 2 megs are reserved but not backed by any real memory
and the first page is allocated for use by the stack, now as the stack
grows, it will eventually grow out of that first page, and end up in
an area that has not been allocated yet, to deal with that the allocated
page is followed by a guard page, someone touches the guard page it's
time to grow the stack!
Meanwhile in FFTW is it's doing substantial allocation using alloca
(up to 64 kb) on the stack, jumping over the guard page, and ending
up in reserved but not yet committed memory, causing an access violation.
Now if you think, that doesn't sound right! something should have
protected us from that! You are correct! That thing was __chkstk_ms
which we disabled.
Given we do not want a dependency on libgcc while building with MSVC
the proper solution is to build fftw as a shared library which will
statically link any bits and pieces it needs, however that change
is a little bit too big to be doing in BCON3.
So as a work around, we change the size the stack grows from 8k to
68k which gives fftw a little bit more wiggle room to keep it out
of trouble most of the time.
Note this only sidesteps the issue, this may come up again if the
conditions are just right, and a proper solution will need to be
implemented for 2.90.
Search for all potential library names in each directory, otherwise e.g.
libImath-2_2.a from a system directory will be preferred over libImath.a even
if we specified a directory.
Add root usd library directory to build arguments, same as other libraries.
Also fix error/typo in compile_USD regarding _is_building.

Otherwise file browsers do not recognize the Blender executable. This is
already done for official releases.
We leave it off for non-portable builds, since that's how Linux distribution
packages will typically build Blender and we can continue to follow the OS
default there. Using a file browser to launch executables from e.g. /usr/bin
would be rare as wel.

Following up to b555b8d.
Building Blender with hidden symbols but using libraries with visible symbols
was giving linker warnings, specifically for USD. So revert that for now, as
it was not needed for the bugfix.
Hide USD symbols (some of which are not in the USD namespace) to avoid potential
conflicts. May potentially help with AMD OpenCL issues in T74262.
This means symbols from Blender itself and most external libraries. We can't
just hide all because that breaks some libraries. The better solution would
be to rebuild all library dependencies with hidden visibility.
Fixes T75223: Luxrender add-on failing to load on macOS
Happens on macOS 10.15.4 and Xcode 11.4.
The reason of failure is caused by following factors:
- xcodebuild reports full semantic macOS SDK version 10.15.4
- The actual SDK file path will only include major and minor part
of the version (10.15, MacOSX10.15.sdk)
- Previous CMake code of ours expected direct match between SDK
version and file path.
The solution is to make our detection code a bit more flexible and
additionally check for major.minor macOS SDK version in the path.
The specific goal of this change is to get rid of separate code paths
for older and newer Xcode versions.
The version 8.2 is picked since it's the latest version which runs on
macOS 10.11 (which is our current deployment target). If that turns
out too new for some reason the alternative would be to require Xcode
version 5.
The main CMakeLists already requires CMake 3.5, so there is no point of
requiring "newer" CMake on macOS.
This was a code from a while back where CMake 3 was not required on all
platforms.
The OpenXR-SDK contains utilities for using the OpenXR standard
(https://www.khronos.org/openxr/). Namely C-headers and a so called
"loader" to manage runtime linking to OpenXR platforms ("runtimes")
installed on the user's system.
The WITH_XR_OPENXR build option is disabled by default for now, as there
is no code using it yet. On macOS it will remain disabled for now, it's
untested and there's no OpenXR runtime in sight for it.
Some points on the OpenXR-SDK dependency:
* The repository is located at
https://github.com/KhronosGroup/OpenXR-SDK (Apache 2).
* Notes on updating the dependency:
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Source/OpenXR_SDK_Dependency
* It contains a bunch of generated files, for which the sources are in a
separate repository
(https://github.com/KhronosGroup/OpenXR-SDK-Source).
* We could use that other repo by default, but I'd rather go with the
simpler solution and allow people to opt in if they want advanced dev
features.
* We currently use the OpenXR loader lib from it and the headers.
* To use the injected OpenXR API-layers from the SDK (e.g. API
validation layers), the SDK needs to be compiled from this other
repository.
The extra "XR_" prefix in the build option is to avoid mix-ups of OpenXR
with OpenEXR.
Most of this comes from the 2019 GSoC project, "Core Support of Virtual
Reality Headsets through OpenXR"
(https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/User:Severin/GSoC-2019/).

Recent refactor external dependencies handling (D6642)
improperly linked all library dependencies with public
linkage rather than interface linkage. Causing excessive
(re)builds of subprojects when not needed.
This patch restores the interface linkage.

System GLEW often is not new enough, which gives error on startup. The build
correctness should not be affected by using lite vs. full, so better to leave
this out than save compiling one extra file.
On Linux, precompiled libraries may be made with a glibc version that is
incompatible with the system libraries that Blender is built on. To solve
this we add a few -ffast-math symbols that can be missing.

Lots of fixes and cleanups, mainly addressing:
* OpenEXR building was fully broken.
* Missing dependencies of Alembic to Boost and openEXR.
* OSL had changed its CMake parameters for custom OpenEXR install path.
* Dependencies between libs were not properly handles when switching a
lib from own build to system package.
The OpenCOLLADA package contains a mix of files with unix and dos line endings.
Now we mark the diff as a binary file so that the patch also contains a mix of
line endings that matches the package.
Seems like sometimes files are being only partially ready, which makes it so there
are unsigned files, failing to deliver fully signed bundle.
Now expected archive file size is stored into stamp file and is checked against
size of the archive file on another side.
There are some bare prints used for debugging, would need to switch it to a proper
logger (or to be removed).
This extends FindOpenShadingLanguage.cmake to also look for the location of
stdosl.h and adds the path to the invocation of oslc to deal with the headers
being in different locations a little better.
