The experimental GPU compositor is leaking memory in any setup.
This is because the current implementation of the render texture pool
always created a new texture and only freed the textures upon deletion.
This was a temporary implementation until a proper implementation that
uses the DRW textures pool was used.
This patch implements a small texture pool as a temporary fix until the
aforementioned DRW texture pool implementation is done.
The GPU compositor crops the viewed images to the render resolution.
While the original size and content of the input to the viewer should be
retained as is.
This patch fixes that by specializing compositors that can use composite
outputs to be able to view images of any arbitrary size. This is still
missing the translation offset of the viewer, but this shall be tackled
separately.
The experimental GPU compositor always returned the first view in
multi-view rendering. This patch fixes that by also checking for the
view name of the context when searching for the appropriate pass.
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.
The C-style API is still in place, but the implementation
is moved to a virtual method.
This is part of unification of viewport and final render
structure.
Should be no functional changes.

Historically, the OCIO based color management implementation in Blender
had exceptions to treat specific configurations differently. It was a
compatibility with the legacy "No color management" option.
With time and more development in the area there are better ways of
achieving this goal, if needed.
This commit removes the named-based exception, which also solves confusion
about why certain similar configurations (from OCIO stand point) give
different results. As well as allows to create a cleaner plate for an
upcoming additions in the OCIO configuration such as AgX.
Quite simple and technical change which constant-folds the check for
whether the scene color management enabled or not with "true" value.

This change fixes crash which happens when a viewer node is used for
backdrop, and the scene render size is modified. After the modification
the render size and the texture size gets out of sync since the texture
was never adapting for the size change.

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.

This is cached in Render, and gets cleared along with render pass GPU
textures when there is no editor open using it, or a new final render is
started.
The context and texture pool are cached. But the evaluator is re-created
every time as this only runs on compositing node changes, which require
recreating it anyway (unlike the viewport where e.g. camera navigation
does not need a new evaluator).

This patch adds support for node previews in the realtime compositor.
Only node operations have previews for now. Shader nodes likes the
MixRGB node does not have previews implemented yet due to required
sizable changes in the node compiler.
Depends on: #108900.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/108904
* Store per RenderPass in RenderResult.
* Caches are cleared when starting rendering, to make more memory available
to GPU rendering.
* Caches are cleared on UI changes, when no compositing node editor and no
image editor with a render result or viewer node image is visible.
* Store 3 channel RGB passes as such, and set alpha 1 in shader.
This is an intermediate step before implementing GPU backed ImBuf, to
improve performance and figure out cache eviction.

This patch adds support for Viewer and File Output nodes to the realtime
compositor. The experimental render GPU compositor was also extended to
support viewers. While support for File Output nodes was added, it
remains unimplemented.
This is just an experimental implementation, the logic for viewers will
probably be changed once #108656 is agreed upon. Furthermore, the recalc
NODE_DO_OUTPUT_RECALC flags need to be taken into account to avoid
superfluous computations.

* Enable "Experimental Compositors" in preferences, then choose
Realtime GPU execution mode in node editor sidebar.
* Only supports combined pass input and Render Result combined output.
* No viewer nodes, no file output nodes, and no node previews yet.
