- Implements asynchronous transfer queues from PR #87590.
- Adds ubershaders that can run with specialization constants specified as push constants.
- Pipelines with specialization constants can compile in the background.
- Added monitoring for pipeline compilations.
- Materials and shaders can now be created asynchronously on background threads.
- Meshes that are loaded on background threads can also compile pipelines as part of the loading process.
This adds support in all backends, but the Compatibility renderer works the best.
Mobile and Forward+ can only support one directional light shader (the first in the tree)
While the Compatibility renderer supports any number of shadows.

Features:
- Debug-only tracking of objects by type. See
get_driver_allocs_by_object_type et al.
- Debug-only Breadcrumb info for debugging GPU crashes and device lost
- Performance report per frame from get_perf_report
- Some VMA calls had to be modified in order to insert the necessary
memory callbacks
Functionality marked as "debug-only" is only available in debug or dev
builds.
Misc fixes:
- Early break optimization in RenderingDevice::uniform_set_create
============================
The work was performed by collaboration of TheForge and Google. I am
merely splitting it up into smaller PRs and cleaning it up.
Initially 3d had premulT alpha as a keyword.
Since Canvas item uses mixed premul and premult as keywords,
3D is changed as well to keep consistency with 2D.
Unfortunately this keeps inconsistency with the internal ENUM.
This also makes the Overdraw and Shadow Splits debug draw modes ignore fog.
The Lighting debug draw mode still displays fog as that debug draw mode
is intended to preview scene lighting, and fog has an impact on how
lighting is perceived.
Adds a new system to automatically reorder commands, perform layout transitions and insert synchronization barriers based on the commands issued to RenderingDevice.
This fixes a bugs where per-viewport samplers were being used for internal texture fetches (probes, sky, etc.).
This also fixes a bug when using multiple viewports in the same scene.
This also fixes a bug where the texture bias would override the bias from 3D scale.
Ensure `ensure_tangents` option actually creates tangent array. Even if it is just a dummy array.
Allow mesh to generate its own tangents when using compression. This allows users to compress meshes without tangents.
Warn users if they are trying to read from tangents without providing tangents.
This is a longstanding issue in both the Mobile and GL Compatibility renderer.
Meshes pair with all lights that touch them, and then at draw time, we send all paired lights indices to the shader (even if that light isn't visible). The problem is that non-visible lights aren't uploaded to the GPU and don't have an index. So we end up using a bogus index
This allows Godot to automatically compress meshes to save a lot of bandwidth.
In general, this requires no interaction from the user and should result in
no noticable quality loss.
This scheme is not backwards compatible, so we have provided an upgrade
mechanism, and a mesh versioning mechanism.
Existing meshes can still be used as a result, but users can get a
performance boost by reimporting assets.
Introduces support for FSR2 as a new upscaler option available from the project settings. Also introduces an specific render list for surfaces that require motion and the ability to derive motion vectors from depth buffer and camera motion.
Introduces a new structure to store samplers created with certain parameters instead of storing a 'custom' set of samplers. Allows viewports to correctly configure the mipmap bias and use it when rendering the scene.
Add the capability of resizing the transforms buffer for particles to be double its size and alternate where the current output is written to. Only works for particles that use index as their draw order.
Extends mesh instances that required custom vertex buffers to create two alternating buffers that are written to and binds them to use them as the previous vertex buffer when generating motion vectors.
This is needed to allow 2D to fully make use of 3D effects (e.g. glow), and can be used to substantially improve quality of 2D rendering at the cost of performance
Additionally, the 2D rendering pipeline is done in linear space (we skip linear_to_srgb conversion in 3D tonemapping) so the entire Viewport can be kept linear.
This is necessary for proper HDR screen support in the future.
discard was being included in all shaders set to depth pass opaque, which is the majority of shaders
Instead it should only be used with alpha prepass materials
This also fixes RENDERING_INFO_TOTAL_PRIMITIVES_IN_FRAME for the RD renderers as it was incorrectly reporting vertex/index count at times
This also adds memory tracking to textures and buffers to catch memory leaks.
This also cleans up some memory leaks that the new system caught.
The OpenGL implementation has used GL_FUNC_REVERSE_SUBTRACT for a long time, but the new RenderingDevice abstraction used by the Vulkan renderers had been mistakenly set to BLEND_OP_SUBTRACT instead of BLEND_OP_REVERSE_SUBTRACT.
Fixes#77448
Light3D has a light_specular property which is used to set the
intensity of specular contributed by this light source, but it was
previously only used by the default material light shader, and not
possible to use in a custom light() shader.
Previously, when using doubles builds of the engine, instance transform was stored no matter what which caused world space particles to accumulate the instance transform twice
1. `number_width` isn't used later
2. `return_type` is used only once
3. AudioServer::get_singleton()->get_channel_count() always returns a channel_count of 1 or larger
4. negative `aa->backward` conditional
5. `current_canvas` == `find_world_2d()->get_canvas()`
6. identical if `render_shadows`
Normally dependencies are only set dirty when changed during culling, but that misses changes that happen in the renderer (like a new shader being set in a material)
As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
This argument is now non optional, but this never hits the same bad access.
I voted to simplify the code here since the argument is never used optionally in our codebase.
Previously, only forward basis distance from the camera was used.
This means that unnecessarily high LOD levels were used for objects located to the side of the camera.
The distance from the camera origin is now used, independently of direction.
