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
Add a High Dynamic Range option in the Color Management > Display panel.
This enables display of extended color ranges above 1.0 for the 3D
viewport, image editor and render previews.
This requires a monitor that can display HDR colors, and a view
transform designed for HDR output. The Standard view transform works,
but Filmic does not as it was designed to bring values into the 0..1
range for SDR displays.
This patch is limited to allowing the display to visualize extended
colors, but does not include future looking work to better integrate HDR
into the full workflow.
It is implemented by rendering to high bit-depth texture formats for
the user interface, and uncapping the color range in color management.

The cleanup of blenkernel last weeks , caused the house of cards to
collapse on top of bf_gpu's shader_builder, which is off by default
but used on a daily basis by the rendering team.
Given the fixes forward in #110394 ran into a ODR violation in OSL that
was hiding there for years, I don't see another way forward without
impeding the rendering teams productivity for "quite a while" as there
is no guarantee the OSL issue would be the end of it.
the only way forward appears to be back.

The problematic commit was 07fe6c5a57
as blenkernel links most of blender, it's a bit of a link order issue
magnet. Given all these commits stack, it's near impossible to revert
just that one without spending a significant amount of time resolving
merge conflicts. 99% of that work was automated, so easier to just
revert all of them, and re-do the work, than it is to deal with the
merge conflicts.

There's quite a few libraries that depend on dna_type_offsets.h
but had gotten to it by just adding the folder that contains it to
their includes INC section without declaring a dependency to
bf_dna in the LIB section.
which occasionally lead to the lib building before bf_dna and the
header being missing, while this generally gets fixed in CMake by
adding bf_dna to the LIB section of the lib, however until last
week all libraries in the LIB section were linked as INTERFACE so
adding it in there did not resolve the build issue.
To make things still build, we sprinkled add_dependencies wherever
we needed it to force a build order.
This diff :
Declares public include folders for the bf_dna target so there's
no more fudging the INC section required to get to them.
Removes all dna related paths from the INC section for all
libraries.
Adds an alias target bf:dna to signify it has been updated to
modern cmake
Declares a dependency on bf::dna for all libraries that require it
Removes (almost) all calls to add_dependencies for bf_dna
Future work:
Because of the manual dependency management that was done, there is
now some "clutter" with libs depending on bf_dna that realistically
don't. Example bf_intern_opencolorio itself has no dependency on
bf_dna at all, doesn't need it, doesn't use it. However the
dna include folder had been added to it in the past since bf_blenlib
uses dna headers in some of its public headers and
bf_intern_opencolorio does use those blenlib headers.
Given bf_blenlib now correctly declares the dependency on bf_dna
as public bf_intern_opencolorio will get the dna header directory
automatically from CMake, hence some cleanup could be done for
bf_intern_opencolorio
Because 99% of the changes in this diff have been automated, this diff
does not seek to address these issues as there is no easy way to
determine why a certain dependency is in place. A developer will have
to make a pass a this at some later point in time. As I'd rather not
mix automated and manual labour.
There are a few libraries that could not be automatically processed
(ie bf_blendthumb) that also will need this manual look-over.

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:

Currently, when using the python api for offscreen drawing, the
default background will always be rendered into the GPUOffScreen's
framebuffer, rendering the alpha channel essentially useless and
making it difficult to separate objects from the background.
This patch allows offscreen drawing of a 3d view with transparent
background by exposing an optional parameter to the python api,
enabling, for example, compositing the result over another image.
The new parameter to draw_view3d() is optional, with the default
value matching the previous behavior, so this change is fully

Currently the Textures used for offscreen rendering don't have
the `GPU_TEXTURE_USAGE_HOST_READ` flag. But some cases it is
needed. This PR adds a parameter when creating an offscreen
buffer.
Other solution could be to add this flag to all textures, but
we chose not to do this as that reduces the amount of fine-tuning
options for Metal/Vulkan backends. GPU can store textures
differently based on its actual usage.
This option isn't available in the python API as we don't expect
add-on developers to fine-tune texture usages to this extent.
For convenience `GPU_TEXTURE_USAGE_ATTACHMENT` is by default
always added.

`scissor_test_set` wasn't able to parse the arguments that were
passed correctly, due to incorrect control data during functino
registration.
This patch uses the correct control data during registration and
is able to parse arguments.

GPUBatch.draw supports basic drawing methods. Although all
supported GPU backends support range based and instance based drawing.
This patch adds 2 methods to GPUBatch to add support to range based and
instance based drawing.
my_batch.draw_range(my_shader, elem_start=10, elem_count=5)
Will draw my_batch using my_shader. From the attached index buffer
elements 10-14 will be drawn.
my_batch.draw_instance_range(my_shader, instance_start=0, instance_count=10)
will draw my_batch using my_shader 10 times. Inside the vertex
shader the current instance number is held by gl_InstanceID.
Pull Request #104457
For every other texture types this is expected to be implicitly
`GPU_DATA_FLOAT`. There is only one case where this is not the case.
I believe this was previously needed because the data type was
conditionning the texture creation. This is not the case anymore.
This is a missing part of the Metal backend. Metal backend doesn't
support the bgl commands, but it was not possible to use the gpu
module to use scissor testing.
Without this change addon developers would not be able to migrate
their addons to support the Metal backend.
This patch adds:
- `gpu.state.scissor_set`
- `gpu.state.scissor_get`
- `gpu.state.scissor_test_set`
Fix#104911
Documented all functions, adding use case and side effects.
Also replace the use of shortened argument name by more meaningful ones.
Renamed `GPU_batch_instbuf_add_ex` and `GPU_batch_vertbuf_add_ex` to remove
the `ex` suffix as they are the main version used (removed the few usage
of the other version).
Renamed `GPU_batch_draw_instanced` to `GPU_batch_draw_instance_range` and
make it consistent with `GPU_batch_draw_range`.
Translation from python enum values were incorrect and textures created
in python using those types would result in faulty textures. In
renderdoc those textures would not bind.
`BPYGPU_IS_INIT_OR_ERROR_OBJ` is not implemented in all pygpu functions.
Instead of copying and pasting that call across the API when it has no
gpu context, override the methods with one that always reports error.
Function casts hid casting between potentially incompatible type
signatures (using int instead of Py_ssize_t). As it happens this seems
not to have caused any bugs on supported platforms so this change is
mainly for correctness and to avoid problems in the future.
Missed these changes in [0].
Also replace designated initializers in some C code, as it's not used
often and would need to be removed when converting to C++.

Use struct identifiers in comments before the value.
This has some advantages:
- The struct identifiers didn't mix well with other code-comments,
where other comments were wrapped onto the next line.
- Minor changes could re-align all other comments in the struct.
- PyVarObject_HEAD_INIT & tp_name are no longer placed on the same line.
Remove overly verbose comments copied from PyTypeObject (Python v2.x),
these aren't especially helpful and get outdated.
Also corrected some outdated names:
- PyTypeObject.tp_print -> tp_vectorcall_offset
- PyTypeObject.tp_reserved -> tp_as_async
