Fixed: 0, Closed: 0.

Week 309: 30th October - 5th Novemver

  • General development
    • Monday was absolutely dead since some sandwitch. Was an open-doors event at the studio anyway. So was yet another short week :(
  • Cycles
    • Some maintenance work, port commits to snandalone repository and back.
    • Added API and some basic information about Cycles-specific settings to output file's metadata.
    • Experimented with reducing stack size for GPU. Gives about 200MB saving for 1080, but was giving slowdown on AMD. Brecht reworked the patch and put it to master.
  • Blender 2.8
    • Lots of work porting all scene/relations update to new API which is aware of multiple depsgraphs per scene.

Fixed: 0, Closed: 0.

Week 310: 6th - 12th November

  • General development
    • Cycles: Fix compilation error with latest OIIO
  • Dependency graph
    • Fix missing relations when node tree uses an object (for example, Point Density shader)
  • Blender 2.8 / Dependency graph
    • Fix/workaround crash when rendering from command line
    • Fix/workaround command line rendering of sequencer
    • Removed lots of legacy workarounds all over the place which started to be in a way of The Ultimate Depsgraph

Week 312: 20th - 26th November

  • Bug-tracker work
    • Fix T53371 Keying Node fails with values above 1
  • Dependency graph
    • Fixed handful of crashes/bugs when running depsgraph with copy-on-write enabled.
    • Started switching modifiers away from using md-scene. Use time from evaluation context instead. Solves missing time updates of modifiers when copy-on-write is enabled.
    • Handle selection updates (draw cache tagging/update) using dependency graph. Solves missing draw refresh in edit mode with copy-on-write enbaled.
    • Got rid of base->flags "flush" to object from depsgraph iteration. This is something which should be happening at the evaluation time.

Fixed: 1, Closed: 0.

Week 313: 27th November - 4th December

  • General development
    • Sequencer: Add option to render OpenGL preview with DoF
    • Transform: Avoid use of ob->recalc in snapping code (replace with direct object update, based on new DEG callbacks)
    • Transform: Remove legacy workarounds, which were in a way of moving forward with new DEG and CoW and such.
  • Dependency graph
    • Replace direct calls to editors update from certain operators with tag system of dependency graph. Would solve issues with possible multiple CoW objects for the given ID, all of which needs to be informed.
    • Remove workaround for Blender Internal in viewport,
    • Avoid use of bContext in new DEG callbacks listening to ID updates.
    • Make draw manager to hook to DEG via listening callbacks (similar to how it's done for Cycles in master). Avoid use of special obscure flags in Object DNA.
    • Fix missing objects in viewport when CoW is enabled
    • Fix crash with compositor node tree when CoW is enabled
    • Fix crash on playback of animated objects when CoW is enabled
  • Blender 2.8
    • Lots of cleanup in Draw Manager and Eevee, make naming more obvious and match in semantic with other areas.
    • Avoid use of goto's in looooon functions.
    • Move transform API to use DEG query, instead of direct calls to object update + tag + flush.
    • Remove Object->recalc flag, use ID->LIB_TAG_RECALC_* flags instead. No need to keep two similar bitflags in sync!

Fixed: 0, Closed: 0.

Week 314: 4th - 10th December

  • Dependency graph
    • Fixed missing drivers update coming from animated custom property
    • Fixed wrong relations build when driver variable was first pointing to a bone and then was changed to something else.
  • Cycles
    • Fix difference in image Clip extension method between CPU and GPU

Fixed: 2, Closed: 8.

    • Make ID level recalc flags more clear what they means
    • Got rid of ID_RECALC_DATA tag, it is to be checked via object->data->id tags
    • Remove id tagging workarounds needed for dupliframes. Those should not be needed with new dependency graph at all.
    • Begin work on making id->recalc flags more granular, so render engines can only update what is required.
    • At the same time, got rid of 3 places where depsgraph update tags and ID/object recalc flags needed to be kept in sync.

Fixed: 0, Closed: 3.
