Before: If the current frame is out of the cache start/end range, the viewport will show the fluid as it was on the last frame that was still in the cache frame range.
Now: If the current frame is out of the cache start/end range, the viewport will show no fluid at all (even if there are cache files present for this frame).
This fix is related / in response to T79423.
The decomposed transform would have consists of nan values if the input
transform had zero scale.
Now the decomposition will check for zero scale, and if it is detected
then the result will be ensured to be finite. Additionally, rotation
value will be copied from previous/next time step to help avoiding
obscure interpolation.
The latter step can become more comprehensive than the current simple
implementation.

Instead of clearing forces at the end of the simulation step, they will now be cleared before writing to them, i.e. at the beginning of a step.
Also cleaned up minor areas that I looked at while making this change.
This patch adds the ability to render motion blur from Alembic caches.
The motion blur data is derived from a velocity attribute whose name has
to be defined by the user through the MeshSequenceCache modifier, with a
default value of ".velocities", which is the standard name in Alembic
for the velocity property, although other software may ignore it and
write velocity with their own naming convention (e.g. "v" in Houdini).
Furthermore, a property was added to define how the velocity vectors
are interpreted with regard to time : frame or second. "Frame"
means that the velocity is already scaled by the time step and we do not
need to modify it for it to look proper. "Second" means that the unit
the velocity was measured in is in seconds and so has to be scaled by
some time step computed here as being the time between two frames (1 /
FPS, which would be typical for a simulation). This appears to be
common, and is the default behavior.
Another property was added to control the scale of the velocity to
further modify the look of the motion blur.

The abbreviation 'init' is brief, unambiguous and already used
in thousands of places, also initialize is often accidentally
written with British spelling.
Caused by c7aa0f9d74.
Since above commit, BKE_image_user_frame_calc requires an image (not
just the iuser) to get the framenumber.
Cycles used to call this with NULL image (in `image_user_file_path` and
`image_user_frame_number`), now pass the image as well.

A collection of multiple changes that had been living in my stash:
- Use nullptr instead of NULL in C++ files
- Removed unused/deprecated functions from headers
- Cleared animatable flag in cache UI
- Comment cleanups
Use static_cast() where possible and refresh pointers for every frame when in replay mode. The latter is particularly important as this seems to have caused the issue where smoke in the viewport was flickering when loading data from pointers after loading them from disk for the frame before (e.g. when resuming a bake job).
This patch adds a new compound shape entry to the shape selection
dropdown. It also corrects wrong inertia calculation for convex hulls,
that resulted in strange behavior for small objects.
The compound shape take the collision shapes from its object children
and combines them. This makes it possible to create concave shapes from
primitive shapes. Using this instead of the mesh collision shape is
often many times faster.

Fix several issues in CLOG code:
* In `clg_str_reserve`, allocated memory may be bigger than requested
one, do not assign the latter back to `cstr->len_alloc`.
* `clg_str_vappendf` was mis-interpreting returned value from
`vsnprintf`, and completely mixing total allocated memory and extra
needed amount of memory to allocate...
Simplified code of `clg_str_vappendf` to only have allocating code
handled in one place, makes things easier to follow too.
Think this should also be beckported to 2.83.
The fisheye camera setup causes the edges of the image to not shoot primary rays. This was not
respected by OptiX because of an optimization that tried to reduce conditionals around trace calls.
Removing that does not seem to have an impact on performance anymore however and it fixes
the issue.
New option that lets users the define the maximum number of fluid particles that will be allowed in the simulation. This can come in handy, for example, to ensure that the particle count will not exceed the hardware capabilities, or to avoid excessive amounts of particles in a scene.
The OptiX kernels are compiled for target "compute_sm_52", which is only available on second
generation Maxwell GPUs, so disable support for older ones.
When definining static variables that own memory, you should
use the "construct on first use" idiom. Otherwise, you'll get
a warning when Blender exits.

The sky will appear brighter than before by default. To compensate for this,
lower exposure in the Film panel. The default altitude was also changed from
90 to 15 degrees.

This patch changes the discovery of pre-compiled kernels, to look for any PTX, even if
it does not match the current architecture version exactly. It works because the driver can
JIT-compile PTX generated for architectures less than or equal to the current one.
This e.g. makes it possible to render on a new GPU architecture even if no pre-compiled
binary kernel was distributed for it as part of the Blender installation.

This refactor is in response to reports in which the adaptive domain with noise caused a crash (e.g. T79009). It should also fix issues where the smoke appeared to be cut off when using the adaptive domain together with noise. It is also possible that some of these changes improve the lines issue from T74559.
This commit introduces a new way to build unit tests. It is now possible
for each module to generate its own test library. The tests in these
libraries are then bundled into a single executable.
The test executable can be run with `ctest`. Even though the tests
reside in a single executable, they are still exposed as individual
tests to `ctest`, and thus can be selected via its `-R` argument.
Not yet ported tests still build & run as before.
The following rules apply:
- Test code should reside in the same directory as the code under test.
- Tests that target functionality in `somefile.{c,cc}` should reside in
`somefile_test.cc`.
- The namespace for tests is the `tests` sub-namespace of the code under
test. For example, tests for `blender::bke` should be in
`blender::bke:tests`.
- The test files should be listed in the module's `CMakeLists.txt` in a
`blender_add_test_lib()` call. See the `blenkernel` module for an
example.

These flags need to be set correctly in order to distinguish between data that comes from cache files and raw data that comes directly from pointers to the data in Mantaflow.
