In osd layer, we use GLPatchTable (D3D11PatchTable) as a
device-specific representation of FarPatchTables instead of
DrawContext. GLPatchTable may be used not only for drawing
but also for GPU eval APIs (not yet supported though.
We may add CudaPatchTable etc as needed).
The legacy gregory patch drawing buffers are carved out to
the separate class, named GLLegacyGregoryPatchTable.
Also face-varying data are split into client side for now, until
we add new and more robust face-varying drawing structure
(scheduled at 3.1 release)
Tentatively replicate PatchArray structure in GLPatchTables. It will
be revised in the upcoming change.
Shifting hard-coded SRV locations of legacy gregory buffers in HLSL shaders.
While this may be worth revisiting, we should first quantify the benefits and
identify the compilers that support it. Ultimately, we may never use pragma
once in favor of strictly using standard C++.
refactor CL/CUDA specific initialization stuffs into
examples/common/clDeviceContext and cudaDeviceContext, and
update examples to use those structs.
also
- remove CL/CUDA tests from osd_regression. The tests for those kernels will be covered by glImaging.
- update cuda initialization to use the GL-interoperable device if available.
- remove CL specialization from glShareTopology, following the same pattern as we took in the previous OsdGLMesh refactoring. (still something strange with XFB kernels though)
- fix file permissions.
Removed OpenCL/D3D11 specialization and add DEVICE_CONTEXT as a template
parameter. For the kernels which don't need a context object (e.g.
CPU, OpenGL, cuda) just ignore the context, and for the kernels which
use a context (e.g. OpenCL, DirectX) takes a context or a user-defined
class as which encapsulates device contexts. Note that OpenCL requires
two objects, cl_context and cl_command_queue. The user-defined
class must provide GetContext() and GetCommandQueue() for strongly typed
binding to osd VertexBuffers and ComputeContexts.
Osd::Mesh and MeshInterface have been used as a handy harness to host
multiple GPU kernels and graphics APIs. However it has CL/DirectX
specializations and duplicates large amount of plubming code. With this
change, glMesh.h and d3d11Mesh.h become just typedefs and all logic is
put into mesh.h without specializations.
Also cleaned up unused header files and code formatting.
- rename "Regular end cap" to "BSplineBasis end cap"
- revert templating and add EndCapType into PatchTablesFactory::Options.
- make EndCapFactories internal in PatchTablesFactory.
- move end cap stencils into PatchTables, keep them relative to the max level.
- add a utility StencilTablesFactory::AppendEndCapStencilTables to splice and factorize endcap stencil tables.
This change moves all gregory patch generation from Far::PatchTablesFactory
so that we can construct patch tables without stencil tables as well as client
can chose any end patch strategies (we have 3 options for now: legacy 2.x style
gregory patch, gregory basis patch and experimental regular patch approximation).
Also Far::EndCapGregoryBasisPatchFactory provides index mapping from patch index
to vtr face index, which can be used for single gregory patch evaluation on top
of refined points, without involving heavier stencil tables generation.
This is the first step to tease off Osd compute controller/contexts
from Far API.
Currently FarStencilTable only creates a kernelbatch for the entire range,
so we can use [0, numStencils) for all cases instead of KernelBatch.
This might not be true if we apply non-factorized level-wise stencils,
then we'll add another modular utility to serve those cases.
- re-implement the pool allocator
- use templates to remove code redundancy between regular & limit stencils
- leverage [] operator overloading to simplify stencil factorization
- add the ability to treat subdivision levels independently (see below)
- refactor Far::TopologyRefiner::Interpolate<>() methods to pass buffers by reference
(allows overloading of [] operator)
- rename some of the stencil factory options
- propagate changes to Osd / examples / tutorials...
Sync'ing the 'dev' branch with the 'feature_3.0dev' branch at commit 68c6d11fc36761ae1a5e6cdc3457be16f2e9704a
The branch 'feature_3.0dev' is now locked and preserved for historical purposes.
If the system has CLEW installed (which is detected by recently
added FindCLEW routines) then OpenSubduv would be compiled against
this library.
It makes binaries and libraries more portable across the systems,
so it's possible to run the same binary on systems with and without
OpenCL SDK installed.
The most annoying part of the change is updating examples to load
OpenCL libraries, but ideally code around controllers and interface
creation is to be de-duplicated anyway.
Based on the pull request #303 from Martijn Berger
All kernels take offset/length/stride to apply subdivision partially in each vertex elements.
Also the offset can be used for client-based VBO aggregation, without modifying index buffers.
This is useful for topology sharing, in conjunction with glDrawElementsBaseVertex etc.
However, gregory patch shader fetches vertex buffer via texture buffer, which index should also
be offsetted too. Although gl_BaseVertexARB extension should be able to do that job, it's a
relatively new extension. So we use OsdBaseVertex() call to mitigate the compatibility
issue as clients can provide it in their way at least for the time being.
* maintainance work on the D3D11 specialization of OsdMesh to bring it in line with the other template specializations
* updated the facePartition example to derive PartitionedMesh from OsdMesh in order to allow other vertex buffer and compute controller configurations
* added the numVertexElements argument to Osd*DrawContext::Create, which is used to initialize the patch arrays when calling OsdDrawContext::ConvertPatchArrays
* removed the unused level argument from Osd*DrawContext::_initialize
* maintenance work on CL/D3D11 bindings to get them to compile

2 client APIs are changed.
- VertexBuffer::UpdateData() takes start vertex offset
- ComputeController::Refine() takes FarKernelBatchVector
Also, ComputeContext no longer holds farmesh.
Client can free farmesh after OsdComputeContext is created.
(but still need FarKernelBatchVector to apply subdivision kernels)
Now a ComputeController is passed as an
argument to OsdMesh::Create(). This is
a better match to the underlying object
model and can be much more efficient for
compute controllers that have expensive
resources, e.g. compiled shader kernels.
Fixes#103
- [Feature Adaptive GPU Rendering of Catmull-Clark Surfaces](http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/cloop/tog2012.pdf).
- New API architecture : we are planning to lock on to this new framework as the basis for backward compatibility, which we will enforce from Release 1.0 onward. Subsequent releases of OpenSubdiv should not break client code.
- DirectX 11 support
- and much more...
