This doesn't seem to make any impact on performance, but it's
awkward to be modifying the supplied coordinate as if it's a
result... the coordinate input should be left alone, and should
be able to get reused across din calls so only the varying
members need to get updated across calls.

These are being assigned to ints to index the grid and will
become rounded down through truncation anyways.
This little change brings a ~20% FPS boost in modules/swab on
an i7 x230.

din() just samples the din_t which will always just be a
read-only operation, so constify this. It might even help the
compiler generate faster code for din-heavy inner loops like
modules/swab uses.

din() is a hot path for modules/swab in particular. Barring any
substantial changes to swab, which would probably make sense in
the long-term, there's some low-hanging fruit in libs/din.
Here smootherstep() has been made less general for a little perf
boost. The way din uses smootherstep() doesn't need these
bounds checks, nor does it need the caller-supplied edge values.
Also the asserts() have been disabled in the hot path as they
were mostly there for catching programmer errors and swab is
already done.
On my i7 x230 this takes swab from 44fps->54fps, so worthwhile,
but swab is still painfully slow here. It's largely just a
libs/din abuse module that was made to test libs/din, but turned
out to look interesting enough to keep.

I thought the build was already using -Wall but that seems to not
be the case, maybe got lost somewhere along the line or messed up
in configure.ac
After forcing a build with -Wall -Werror, these showed up.
Fixed up in the obvious way, nothing too scary.

also update call sites in modules/{meta2d,swab} accordingly
|
|
This just slows things down, and now that the code is mature
enough to never trigger these asserts just get rid of them.

short-circuit by directly returning bound when exceeded
|
|
dotgradient() is very hot and needs this result when indexing
din->grid[]. Since it doesn't change for a given din instance,
just cache the result @ din_new().

This is a first approximation of separating the core modules and
threaded rendering from the cli-centric rototiller program and
its sdl+drm video backends.
Unfortunately this seemed to require switching over to libtool
archives (.la) to permit consolidating the per-lib and
per-module .a files into the librototiller.a and linking just
with librototiller.a to depend on the aggregate of
libs+modules+librototiller-glue in a simple fashion.
If an alternative to .la comes up I will switch over to it,
using libtool really slows down the build process.
Those are implementation/build system details though. What's
important in these changes is establishing something resembling a
librototiller API boundary, enabling creating alternative
frontends which vendor this tree as a submodule and link just to
librototiller.{la,a} for all the modules+threaded rendering of
them, while providing their own fb_ops_t for outputting into, and
their own settings applicators for driving the modules setup.

Phil reported a crash in swab, illuminating an overflow in how the unit
cube was being scaled to the noise field dimensions.
Added some asserts enforcing critical assumptions as well, though it
will probably cost some FPS in din-heavy modules like swab.
|
|
I'd like the output to fill the range -1..+1, but it's not doing that and I'm
uncertain on what exactly the scaling factor should be here.
In one reference a factor of 1/sqrt(.75) is specified, but in my tests that
doesn't seem to quite fill the range but it doesn't seem to blow it out so
it seems safe for now.

This requires a forward declaration of v3f_t and changing din()
to take a v3f_t *.
The swab module needed updating to supply a pointer type and a
v3f_t definition.
This is being done so din.h users can have their own v3f
implementations. I might consolidate all the duplicated vector
code scattered throughout the libs and modules, but for now I'm
carrying on with the original intention of having modules be
largely self-contained. Though the introduction of libs like
ray and din has certainly violated that a bit already.
|
|
This is a 3D noise field addressed as a unit cube.
The caller supplies the resolution of the noise field in three
dimensions.
I've just pulled in my v3f.h here, but it probably makes sense to
later on move vector headers into libs/ and share them. Later.
It's called din as in noise, because it's shorter than perlin and
noise.
