The hash tables and vector blenlib headers were pulling many more
headers than they actually need, including the C base math header,
our C string API header, and the StringRef header. All of this
potentially slows down compilation and polutes autocomplete
with unrelated information.
Also remove the `ListBase` constructor for `Vector`. It wasn't used
much, and making it easy to use `ListBase` isn't worth it for the
same reasons mentioned above.
It turns out a lot of files depended on indirect includes of
`BLI_string.h` and `BLI_listbase.h`, so those are fixed here.

This patch implements the Anisotropic Kuwahara filter for the Realtime
compositor and replaces the existing CPU implementation with a new one to be
compatible with the GPU implementation. The implementation is based on three
papers on Anisotropic Kuwahara filtering, presented and detailed in the code.
The new implementation exposes two extra parameters that control the sharpness
and directionality of the output, giving more artistic freedom.
While the implementation is different from the existing CPU implementation, it
is a higher quality one that is also faster and conforms better to the methods
described in the papers.
Examples can be seen in the pull request description.

Include counts of some headers while making full blender build:
- BLI_color.hh 1771 -> 1718
- BLI_math_color.h 1828 -> 1783
- BLI_math_vector.hh 496 -> 405
- BLI_index_mask.hh 1341 -> 1267
- BLI_task.hh 958 -> 903
- BLI_generic_virtual_array.hh 509 -> 435
- IMB_colormanagement.h 437 -> 130
- GPU_texture.h 806 -> 780
- FN_multi_function.hh 331 -> 257
Note: DNA_node_tree_interface_types.h needs color include only
for the currently unused (but soon to be used) socket_color function.
Future step is to figure out how to include
DNA_node_tree_interface_types.h less.
Pull Request: #111113
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.
Using ClangBuildAnalyzer on the whole Blender build, it was pointing
out that BLI_math.h is the heaviest "header hub" (i.e. non tiny file
that is included a lot).
However, there's very little (actually zero) source files in Blender
that need "all the math" (base, colors, vectors, matrices,
quaternions, intersection, interpolation, statistics, solvers and
time). A common use case is source files needing just vectors, or
just vectors & matrices, or just colors etc. Actually, 181 files
were including the whole math thing without needing it at all.
This change removes BLI_math.h completely, and instead in all the
places that need it, includes BLI_math_vector.h or BLI_math_color.h
and so on.
Change from that:
- BLI_math_color.h was included 1399 times -> now 408 (took 114.0sec
to parse -> now 36.3sec)
- BLI_simd.h 1403 -> 418 (109.7sec -> 34.9sec).
Full rebuild of Blender (Apple M1, Xcode, RelWithDebInfo) is not
affected much (342sec -> 334sec). Most of benefit would be when
someone's changing BLI_simd.h or BLI_math_color.h or similar files,
that now there's 3x fewer files result in a recompile.
Pull Request #110944
Both the `Math` node and the `Vector Math` currently only explicitly
support modulo using truncated division which is oftentimes not the
type of modulo desired as it behaves differently for negative numbers
and positive numbers.
Floored Modulo can be created by either using the `Wrap` operation or
a combination of multiple `Math` nodes. However both methods obfuscate
the actual intend of the artist and the math operation that is actually
used.
This patch adds modulo using floored division to the scalar `Math` node,
explicitly stating the intended math operation and renames the already
existing `"Modulo"` operation to `"Truncated Modulo"` to avoid confusion.
Only the ui name is changed, so this should not break compatibility.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/110728
This patch uses the average variance of individual color channel as the
condition for choosing the appropriate quadrant. This will produce
different visual results, but ones that are consistent with the
intention of the Kuwahara filter.
This is done to be compatible with the GPU implementation, which uses
that method due to superior performance and memory saving.
In order to better suit the upcoming changes of shader node previews, this
patch replaces the old implementation of the storage of the compositor
previews. It also prevents memory loss for future modification.
BKE_node_preview_clear_tree was removed as it is no longer needed and
will not be used by the new shader node previews.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/110064
This formats code that is disabled using `#if 0`. Formatting was achieved
by temporarily changing `#if 0` to `#if 1 /*something*/`, then formatting,
and then changing it back to `#if 0`.
Doing so avoids having duplicated logic for working with pixel
data which is being passed throughout the render pipeline.
Notable changes:
- ImBug can now store GPU texture.
This is not very finished part of the API, which will be
worked further to support tiling for very-high-res images.
- Implicit sharing is removed from the image buffer, as it is
no longer needed.
There should be no functional changes on user level with this
change.

It was only used by OpenEXR and Iris images, and saving the Z Buffer
in those formats was disabled by default. This option comes from the
times prior to the addition of the Multilayer EXR.
It also worth noting that it was not possible to save Iris with Depth
pass from Blender as internally it is called IRIZ format and it was
not exposed. But even after exposing this format option something still
was missing as saving and loading ITIZ did not show up the Depth pass.
The reason of removal is to make it a more clear match of the ImBuf
with a render pass, and use it instead of a custom type in the render
result and render pass API. This will simplify the API and also avoid
stealing buffers and making shallow copies when showing the render
result.
For the cases when Depth is needed a Multilayer EXR is to be used,
as most likely more than just the Depth will be needed.
On a user level this change:
- Removes the "Z Buffer" option from the interface.
- It preserves existing sockets in compositor nodes, but it will
output black image. Also changing the image data-block will
remove the socket unless a Multilayer EXR with Depth pass image
is selected.
- Removes "Depth" socket of the Viewer and Composite nodes.

After some recent changes BLI_math_base got (indirectly) included
from DNA file, causing defines conflict in Cycles: Cycles wants the
default fast behavior of square root, and BLI color wants it to be
more preciese.
Proposed solution is to move the SSE block away from the math_base
closer to code which uses it. The initial intent was to make those
functions reusable, but for a long long time the color utilities
are the only users of those functions.
This change does not prevent the error from re-occurring in the
future if some code includes sse2neon and BLI color utilities, but
it makes such conflict situation much less likely to happen, for
now.
The downside of this change is that the code now need to include
BLI_simd.h explicitly to access BLI_HAVE_SSE2 instead of relying
on it being included indirectly with math headers. The mitigation
for this is to change semantic of the BLI_HAVE_SSE2: now it is
defined to 1 if SSE2 is supported and to 0 otherwise. This makes
it so the code needs to check if using `#if BLI_HAVE_SSE2` and
if the BLI_simd.h is not included it will generate warning when
using GCC or Clang.
This change in semantic is is something the current patches would
need to ensure is handled correctly.

Compute edges of image once based on luminance instead of all 3 channels.
This also gives a modest performance improvement of 8%. Measured on intel i9 CPU using a 1920 x 3199 image.

Before this change the ImBuf struct had dedicated fields for the
buffer data. Now the color space is stored inside of the struct
which wraps around the buffer information.
This only changes the field placement, without changing the way
it is handled. In the future one might imagine that operations
like stealing buffer data should null-ify the buffer colorspace
pointer. Such changes would need to have more accurate thinking
before implementation.
Should be no functional changes.

Compute luminance only once per region and per pixel by means of vectorization.
Measured time improvements on intel i9 CPU on a 1920 x 3199 image:
- from 14.7s to 3.9s for full-frame compositor
- from 50.1s to 15.3s for tiled compositor
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/108859
Was only happening for the tiled compositor implementation.
This is likely to be the source of flackey tests on the
buildbot.
Also, the reference image was empty because of this, so
it needs to be re-generated.

The filter is used to reduce noise while preserving edges. It can be used to create a cartoon effect from photorealistic images.
It offers two variations:
1) Classic aka isotropic kuwahara filter: simple and faster computation. Algorithm splits an area around a single pixel in four parts and computes the mean of the region with the lowest standard deviation.
2) Anisotropic Kuwahara filter: improves the classical approach by considering the direction of structures of regions
This patch implements both approaches above as multi-threaded operations for the full-frame and tiled compositor.

A lot of files were missing copyright field in the header and
the Blender Foundation contributed to them in a sense of bug
fixing and general maintenance.
This change makes it explicit that those files are at least
partially copyrighted by the Blender Foundation.
Note that this does not make it so the Blender Foundation is
the only holder of the copyright in those files, and developers
who do not have a signed contract with the foundation still
hold the copyright as well.
Another aspect of this change is using SPDX format for the
header. We already used it for the license specification,
and now we state it for the copyright as well, following the
FAQ:
https://reuse.software/faq/
Allows to share buffer data between the render result and image buffers.
The storage of the passes and buffers in the render result have been
wrapped into utility structures, with functions to operate on them.
Currently only image buffers which are sharing buffers with the render
results are using the implicit sharing. This allows proper decoupling of
the image buffers from the lifetime of the underlying render result.
Fixes#107248: Compositor ACCESS VIOLATION when updating datablocks from handlers
Additionally, this lowers the memory usage of multi-layer EXR sequences
by avoiding having two copies of render passes in memory.
It is possible to use implicit sharing in more places, but needs
some API to ensure the render result is the only owner of data before
writing to its pixels.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/108045
The goal is to make it more explicit and centralized operation to
assign and steal buffer data, with proper ownership tracking.
The buffers and ownership flags are wrapped into their dedicated
structures now.
There should be no functional changes currently, it is a preparation
for allowing implicit sharing of the ImBuf buffers. Additionally, in
the future it is possible to more buffer-specific information (such
as color space) next to the buffer data itself. It is also possible
to clean up the allocation flags (IB_rect, ...) to give them more
clear naming and not have stored in the ImBuf->flags as they are only
needed for allocation.
The most dangerous part of this change is the change of byte buffer
data from `int*` to `uint8_t*`. In a lot of cases the byte buffer was
cast to `uchar*`, so those casts are now gone. But some code is
operating on `int*` so now there are casts in there. In practice this
should be fine, since we only support 64bit platforms, so allocations
are aligned. The real things to watch out for here is the fact that
allocation and offsetting from the byte buffer now need an explicit 4
channel multiplier.
Once everything is C++ it will be possible to simplify public
functions even further.

- Rename name/filename/path to filepath when it's used for full paths.
- Rename name/path to dirpath when it refers to a directory.
- Rename file to filepath or path (when it may be a file or dir).
- Rename ImBuf::name & anim::name to filepath.
Rename BLI_make_existing_file to BLI_file_ensure_parent_dir_exists.
The previous name read as if it would make (touch) the file,
where as it ensures the directory component of the path exists.
Move from BLI_path to BLI_fileops as path utilities should only
manipulate paths and not deal with file IO creation
(this has more in common with BLI_file_touch for e.g.).
In some cases comments at the end of control statements were wrapped
onto new lines which made it read as if they applied to the next line
instead of the (now) previous line.
Relocate comments to the previous line or in some cases the end of the
line (before the brace) to avoid confusion.
Note that in quite a few cases these blocks didn't read well
even before MultiLine was used as comments after the brace caused
wrapping across multiple lines in a way that didn't follow
formatting used everywhere else.
For example
```
OIIOOutputDriver::~OIIOOutputDriver()
{
}
```
becomes
```
OIIOOutputDriver::~OIIOOutputDriver() {}
```
Saves quite some vertical space, which is especially handy for
constructors.
