Because:
- Less redundancy.
- Better suffixes.
Also a few modification to GPU_texture_create_* to simplify the API:
- make the format explicit to the texture creation process.
- remove the component count as it's specified in the GPUTextureFormat.
Works on every probe type.
The function to see is EEVEE_lightprobes_obj_visibility_cb.
Set pinfo->vis_data.cached to true makes the computation faster for multiple
views using the same group.
We could even sort the probes by group for that mater to speed things up
even more (only applies to dynamic probes like the planar reflections because
other probes are only rendered one at a time).
This "improve" the viewport experience by reducing the noise from random
sampling effects (SSAO, Contact Shadows, SSR) when moving the viewport or
during playback.
This does not do Anti Aliasing because this would conflict with the outline
pass. We could enable AA jittering in "only render" mode though.
There are many things to improve but this is a solid basis to build upon.
This pass create a velocity buffer which is basically a 2D motion vector
texture. This is not yet used for rendering but will be usefull for motion
blur and temporal reprojection.
The depsgraph was always created within a fixed evaluation context. Passing
both risks the depsgraph and evaluation context not matching, and it
complicates the Python API where we'd have to expose both which is not so
easy to understand.
This also removes the global evaluation context in main, which assumed there
to be a single active scene and view layer.

This gets rid of the need of a geom shader and instancing.
Both are pretty slow compared to the new method.
The only moment the old method could be better is when scene is filled
with lots of objects and most of the objects in the shadow map appear
on every layer.
But even then, we could optimize the culling and minimize the overhead.
This refactor modernise the use of framebuffers.
It also touches a lot of files so breaking down changes we have:
- GPUTexture: Allow textures to be attached to more than one GPUFrameBuffer.
This allows to create and configure more FBO without the need to attach
and detach texture at drawing time.
- GPUFrameBuffer: The wrapper starts to mimic opengl a bit closer. This
allows to configure the framebuffer inside a context other than the one
that will be rendering the framebuffer. We do the actual configuration
when binding the FBO. We also Keep track of config validity and save
drawbuffers state in the FBO. We remove the different bind/unbind
functions. These make little sense now that we have separate contexts.
- DRWFrameBuffer: We replace DRW_framebuffer functions by GPU_framebuffer
ones to avoid another layer of abstraction. We move the DRW convenience
functions to GPUFramebuffer instead and even add new ones. The MACRO
GPU_framebuffer_ensure_config is pretty much all you need to create and
config a GPUFramebuffer.
- DRWTexture: Due to the removal of DRWFrameBuffer, we needed to create
functions to create textures for thoses framebuffers. Pool textures are
now using default texture parameters for the texture type asked.
- DRWManager: Make sure no framebuffer object is bound when doing cache
filling.
- GPUViewport: Add new color_only_fb and depth_only_fb along with FB API
usage update. This let draw engines render to color/depth only target
and without the need to attach/detach textures.
- WM_window: Assert when a framebuffer is bound when changing context.
This balance the fact we are not track ogl context inside GPUFramebuffer.
- Eevee, Clay, Mode engines: Update to new API. This comes with a lot of
code simplification.
This also come with some cleanups in some engine codes.
This module has no use now with the new DrawManager and DrawEngines and it
is using deprecated paths.
Moving gpu_shader_fullscreen_vert.glsl
to draw/modes/shaders/common_fullscreen_vert.glsl
Sequencer rendering can use multisample render targets. Be sure to sync
thoses after rendering.
Also disable the sample loop when not needed.
Do note that currently the color correction is broken with the sequencer.
Calling the rendering operator seems to kill any other WM_job running, leaving
uncompiled materials into a GPU_MAT_QUEUED state. This then made the probe update
looping indefinitely (all_materials_updated remaining to false).
To fix this, we resume compilation for materials that are in this state.
Cancelling Render before all material compilation could make certain material
remain uncompiled. Fortunately, this is not allowed as of now.
