2023-08-24modules/shapes: clamp {scale,pinch_factor} to 0-1Vito Caputo
It might be worthwhile to support >1 for these, but as-is it crashes due to assumptions WRT shape size not exceeding frame dimensions. This just prevents crashes if someone tries putting a >1 value in something like a rkt track for scale/pinch_factor.
2023-08-24modules/shapes: tap a bunch of the parametersVito Caputo
First stab at tapping the parameterized stuff in shapes.
2023-08-24modules/shapes: toggle pinches on n_pinches=0Vito Caputo
This also makes the pinches-dependent settings always get initialized, since when tapped if you moved n_pinches from 0 to non-zero, the pinches-dependent settings would abruptly become relevant mid-flight. So this ensures they can have some sane values, in case they haven't also been set via taps when n_pinches became non-zero.
2023-08-24modules/shapes: s/cos/sin/ for pinchesVito Caputo
Preparatory commit for potential n_pinches=0, sin(0)=0 which behaves better here where n_pinches=0 should be a noop.
2023-08-20modules/shapes: remove stale TODO commentVito Caputo
Threaded rendering was added in 011d4df35
2023-08-13modules/shapes: plug context leakVito Caputo
b6362c54 introduced shapes_destroy_context() for the radcache, but didn't actually cleanup the context, oops. trivial fix
2023-08-07modules/checkers: fix radcache partial initialization bugVito Caputo
Running something like: '--module=checkers,size=64,fill_module=shapes,style=circle --defaults --go' Would show some artifacts in the top portion of the filled cells at certain phases of the spining shape. This was introduce by the radcache, and it's caused by the overhanging tiles on the perimeter and how their being clipped was carrying into the radcache contents then used for all subsequent renders. This commit just makes setting radcache.initialized conditional on the incoming fragment being a full-frame fragment as a quick fix. See comment for more info on what to do long-term.
2023-08-05til_setup,*: add til_setup_t.creator pointerVito Caputo
Particularly with nested modules it's annoying to have to stow the module separate from the setup during the setup process. If the baked setup included the module pointer in the non-module-specific-setup part of the setup, then nested settings could finalize using the generic module setup wrapper and just rely on this til_setup_t.creator pointer to contain the appropriate module. Which should enable tossing out a bunch of copy-n-pasta surrounding nested modules setup. Note this has to be a void* since til_setup_t is a generic thing used equally by both the fb code and the module code. Hence why this is called "creator" and not "module", as well as the void* as opposed to til_module_t*. Also if rototiller ever grows a sound backend, the setup machinery will be reused there as well, and it'll be yet another creator handle that isn't an til_fb_ops_t or a til_module_t. It's assumed that the callers producing these setups won't be trying to pass them to the wrong places i.e. a module setup getting passed to an fb backend and vice versa. I'm mildly annoyed about having to move the various til_module_t blocks to above the module's foo_setup(), but it seemed like the least annoying option. This may be revisited.
2023-07-28modules/*: use til_fragmenter_slice_per_cpu_x16() where applicableVito Caputo
Mechanical change switching til_fragmenter_slice_per_cpu() users over to til_fragmenter_slice_per_cpu_x16(), except sparkler where it's quite detrimental to performance.
2023-07-21modules/shapes: drop atan2_approx()Vito Caputo
With the addition of the "radcache" in b6362c, the need for a faster approximate atan2f() is largely eliminated. And there seems to be a bug in the implementation as-is taken from https://mazzo.li/posts/vectorized-atan2.html You can see the bug as vertical line artifact around the center where the X coordinate would be 0. Rather than debug what's wrong with this approximation's implementation surrounding its quadrant adjustments, let's just resume using atan2f() and let the cache keep things quick.
2023-07-11modules/shapes: cache per-pixel atan2 resultsVito Caputo
computing the angle for every pixel coordinate from the origin is costly, even with the approximate method added by c690303. An easy speedup is to only do this once for a given frame dimensions, and cache those results. In the form of a 32-bit float, it's equivalent to caching a full page of pixel data. This is slightly complicated by needing to be an effectively global cache and the potential for multiple shapes contexts rendering concurrently when part of a composition. I think this particular situation highlights a need for something equivalent generalized on-stream where modules can register discoverable caches of costly to compute information, having a high probability of being useful to others. In this particular case it was alphazed's use of shapes in two layers that made it an obvious win, even without any other modules needing atan2() per-pixel with a centered origin. With this commit: Configured settings as flags: --seed=0x64adabae '--module=compose,layers=blank\,shapes\\\,type\\\=pinwheel\\\,scale\\\=.9\\\,pinch\\\=.25\\\,pinch_spin\\\=.1\\\,pinches\\\=7\\\,points\\\=19\\\,spin\\\=.01\,shapes\\\,type\\\=pinwheel\\\,scale\\\=.9\\\,pinch\\\=1\\\,pinch_spin\\\=-.25\\\,pinches\\\=8\\\,points\\\=5\\\,spin\\\=0,texture=moire\,centers\=3' '--video=mem,size=1366x768' FPS: 73 FPS: 74 FPS: 73 Without: Configured settings as flags: --seed=0x64adb857 '--module=compose,layers=blank\,shapes\\\,type\\\=pinwheel\\\,scale\\\=.9\\\,pinch\\\=.25\\\,pinch_spin\\\=.1\\\,pinches\\\=7\\\,points\\\=19\\\,spin\\\=.01\,shapes\\\,type\\\=pinwheel\\\,scale\\\=.9\\\,pinch\\\=1\\\,pinch_spin\\\=-.25\\\,pinches\\\=8\\\,points\\\=5\\\,spin\\\=0,texture=moire\,centers\=3' '--video=mem,size=1366x768' FPS: 55 FPS: 54 FPS: 54 So it's significant, and in alphazed there's also a transition from one scene with two full-screen shapes layers into a checkered scene with shapes as the fill_module. Further amplifying the payoff.. infact whenever shapes is used for a fill_module in checkers, there's n_cpus shapes contexts created because checkers is threaded. All of those would be benefitting from the cache.
2023-07-08modules/shapes: use new approximate atan2 functionVito Caputo
While here also did more minor optimizations moving things out of the inner loops that were only there out of laziness...
2023-07-08modules/shapes: introduce an approximate atan2f()Vito Caputo
Taken from this excellent post: https://mazzo.li/posts/vectorized-atan2.html While I haven't gone full vectorized, just getting rid of the regular atan2f() call will be a big improvement. This just adds the functionality, nothing is calling it yet.
2023-07-07modules/shapes: make threadedVito Caputo
This is just a first stab at threading shapes... whenever shapes finds itself in a scene it easily becomes a significant bottleneck, threading is a trivial path to improving that somewhat. While at it I also got rid of the need for _checked() variants which also helps a bit. But nothing here is proper optimization of the routines.. there's too much math happening per pixel in a naive fashion.
2023-05-30til,*: pivot to til_setup_t for context pathsVito Caputo
This changes til_setup_t* from optional to required for til_module_context_t creation, while dropping the separate path parameter construction and passing throughout.
2023-05-28til_setup,*: note settings path in til_setup_tVito Caputo
This commit adds passing the settings instance to til_setup_new() which is used for deriving a path for the setup via til_settings_print_path() on the supplied settings. That path gets an allocated copy left in the returned til_setup_t at til_setup_t.path This path will exist for the lifetime of the til_setup_t, to be freed along with the rest of the baked setup instance when the refcount reaches 0. The incoming til_settings_t is only read @ til_setup_new() in constructing the path, no reference is kept. Basically the til_settings_t* is just passed in for convenience reasons, since constructing the path needs memory and may fail, this approach lets the existing til_setup_new() call error handling also capture the path allocation failures as-is turning til_setup_new() into a bit more of a convenience helper. Note that now all code may assume a til_setup_t has a set and valid til_setup_t.path, which should be useful for context creates when a setup is available.
2023-05-28*: use NULL for free() in til_setup_new()Vito Caputo
Commit 7c8086020 switched the til_setup_new() api to support NULL free_func for free(). This mechanical change pivots to that instead of the awkwardly cast free() parameters.
2023-05-21modules/shapes: fixup clearing when {letter,pillar}boxedVito Caputo
3b6e34e70 broke this with what looks to be a silly mistake in modifying the existing put_pixel() calls. Kept the fragment->{x,y} instead of removing those and keeping the bare {x,y}.
2023-05-11modules/*: stop storing setup by value in contextsVito Caputo
With setup refcounting and a reference bound to the context, we should just dereference the single instance. The way setups are used it just as a read-only thing to affect context behavior... Note I've left the module-type-specific setup pointer despite it duplicating the setup pointer in the module_context. This is just a convenience thing so the accessors don't have to cast the general til_setup_t* to my_module_setup_t* everywhere.
2023-05-11til_module_context: reference setup from module contextVito Caputo
This just does the obvious pulling in of til_setup_t, holding the reference throughout the lifetime of the module context.
2023-05-11modules/*: remove use of static default setupsVito Caputo
There was a time when it made sense for context creates needing setups but not receiving them to still be functional with some sane defaults. But with recursive settings, we really shouldn't ever have orphaned nested module uses unreachable by a proper setup. So let's just get rid of this fallback, and exclusively rely on the baked setups provided by the .setup() methods. They still have preferred defaults, and the proper setup production machinery is what should be responsible for applying those at runtime where they may also be overridden or otherwise influenced.
2023-05-11til_settings: introduce til_setting_spec_t concept vs. descVito Caputo
For recursive settings the individual setting being described needs to get added to a potentially different settings instance than the one being operated on at the top of the current setup_func phase. The settings instance being passed around for a setup_func to operate on is constified, mainly to try ensure modules don't start directly mucking with the settings. They're supposed to just describe what they want next and iterate back and forth, with the front-end creating the settings from the returned descs however is appropriate, eventually building up the settings to completion. But since it's the setup_func that decides which settings instance is appropriate for containing the setting.. at some point it must associate a settings instance with the desc it's producing, one that is going to be necessarily written to. So here I'm just turning the existing til_setting_desc_t to a "spec", unchanged. And introducing a new til_setting_desc_t embedding the spec, accompanied by a non-const til_settings_t* "container". Now what setup_funcs use to express settings are a spec, otherwise identically to before. Instead of cloning a desc to allocate it for returning to the front-end, the desc is created from a spec with the target settings instance passed in. This turns the desc step where we take a constified settings instance and cast it into a non-const a more formal act of going from spec->desc, binding the spec to a specific settings instance. It will also serve to isolate that hacky cast to a til_settings function, and all the accessors of til_setting_desc_t needing to operate on the containing settings instance can just do so. As of this commit, the container pointer is just sitting in the desc_t but isn't being made use of or even assigned yet. This is just to minimize the amount of churn happening in this otherwise mostly mechanical and sprawling commit. There's also been some small changes surrounding the desc generators and plumbing of the settings instance where there previously wasn't any. It's unclear to me if desc generators will stay desc generators or turn into spec generators. For now those are mostly just used by the drm_fb stuff anyways, modules haven't made use of them, so they can stay a little crufty harmlessly for now.
2023-01-20til: pass module to .context_create()/til_module_context_new()Vito Caputo
Let's make it so til_module_context_t as returned from til_module_context_new() can immediately be freed via til_module_context_free(). Previously it was only after the context propagated out to til_module_context_create() that it could be freed that way, as that was where the module member was being assigned. With this change, and wiring up the module pointer into til_module_t.create_context() as well for convenient providing to til_module_context_new(), til_module_t.create_context() error paths can easily cleanup via `return til_module_context_free()` But this does require the til_module_t.destroy_context() be able to safely handle partially constructed contexts, since the mid-create failure freeing won't necessarily have all the members initialized. There will probably be some NULL derefs to fix up, but at least the contexts are zero-initialized @ new.
2023-01-11* turn til_fb_fragment_t.stream into a discrete parameterVito Caputo
This was mostly done out of convenience at the expense of turning the fragment struct into more of a junk drawer. But properly cleaning up owned stream pipes on context destroy makes the inappropriateness of being part of til_fb_fragment_t glaringly apparent. Now the stream is just a separate thing passed to context create, with a reference kept in the context for use throughout. Cleanup of the owned pipes on the stream supplied to context create is automagic when the context gets destroyed. Note that despite there being a stream in the module context, the stream to use is still supplied to all the rendering family functions (prepare/render/finish) and it's the passed-in stream which should be used by these functions. This is done to support the possibility of switching out the stream frame-to-frame, which may be interesting. Imagine doing things like a latent stream and a future stream and switching between them on the fly for instance. If there's a sequencing composite module, it could flip between multiple sets of tracks or jump around multiple streams with the visuals immediately flipping accordingly. This should fix the --print-pipes crashing issues caused by lack of cleanup when contexts were removed (like rtv does so often).
2023-01-10*: introduce paths for module contextsVito Caputo
There needs to be a way to address module context instances by name externally, in a manner complementary to settings and taps. This commit adds a string-based path to til_module_context_t, and modifies til_module_create_context() to accept a parent path which is then concatenated with the name of the module to produce the module instance's new path. The name separator used in the paths is '/' just like filesystem paths, but these paths have no relationship to filesystems or files. The root module context creation in rototiller's main simply passes "" as the parent path, resulting in a "/" root as one would expect. There are some obvious complications introduced here however: - checkers in particular creates a context per cpu, simply using the same seed and setup to try make the contexts identical at the same ticks value. With this commit I'm simply passing the incoming path as the parent for creating those contexts, but it's unclear to me if that will work OK. With an eye towards taps deriving their parent path from the context path, I guess these taps would all get the same parent and hash to the same value despite being duplicated. Maybe it Just Works, but one thing is clear - there won't be any way to address the per-cpu taps as-is. Maybe that's desirable though, there's probably not much use in trying to control the taps at the CPU granularity. - when the recursive settings stuff lands, it should bring along the ability to explicitly name settings blocks. Those names should override the module name in constructing the path. I've noted as such in the code. - these paths probably need to be hashed @ initialization time so there needs to be a hash function added to til, and a hash value accompanying the name in the module context. It'd be dumb to keep recomputing the hash when these paths get used for hash table lookups multiple times per frame... there's probably more I'm forgetting right now, but this seems like a good first step. fixup root path
2022-08-07til: til_fb_fragment_t **fragment_ptr all the thingsVito Caputo
Preparatory commit for enabling cloneable/swappable fragments There's an outstanding issue with the til_fb_page_t submission, see comments. Doesn't matter for now since cloning doesn't happen yet, but will need to be addressed before they do.
2022-07-24modules/shapes: fix up clipped fragment/frameVito Caputo
This is a first approximation of correct handling of arbitrarily clipped frames described by the incoming fragment. It's still relying on the _checked() put_pixel variants for clipping. That should probably be improved by constraining the loops to the clipped fragment edges.
2022-06-10til: add ticks to til_module_context_tVito Caputo
Also wire this up to the til_module_context_new() helper and all its callers. This is in preparation for modules doing more correct delta-T derived animation.
2022-05-29*: pivot to til_module_context_tVito Caputo
- modules now allocate their contexts using til_module_context_new() instead of [cm]alloc(). - modules simply embed til_module_context_t at the start of their respective private context structs, if they do anything with contexts - modules that do nothing with contexts (lack a create_context() method), will now *always* get a til_module_context_t supplied to their other methods regardless of their create_context() presence. So even if you don't have a create_context(), your prepare_frame() and/or render_fragment() methods can still access seed and n_cpus from within the til_module_context_t passed in as context, *always*. - modules that *do* have a create_context() method, implying they have their own private context type, will have to cast the til_module_context_t supplied to the other methods to their private context type. By embedding the til_module_context_t at the *start* of their private context struct, a simple cast is all that's needed. If it's placed somewhere else, more annoying container_of() style macros are needed - this is strongly discouraged, just put it at the start of struct. - til_module_create_context() now takes n_cpus, which may be set to 0 for automatically assigning the number of threads in its place. Any non-zero value is treated as an explicit n_cpus, primarily intended for setting it to 1 for single-threaded contexts necessary when embedded within an already-threaded composite module. - modules like montage which open-coded a single-threaded render are now using the same til_module_render_fragment() as everything else, since til_module_create_context() is accepting n_cpus. - til_module_create_context() now produces a real type, not void *, that is til_module_context_t *. All the other module context functions now operate on this type, and since til_module_context_t.module tracks the module this context relates to, those functions no longer require both the module and context be passed in. This is especially helpful for compositing modules which do a lot of module context creation and destruction; the module handle is now only needed to create the contexts. Everything else operating on that context only needs the single context pointer, not module+context pairs, which was unnecessarily annoying. - if your module's context can be destroyed with a simple free(), without any deeper knowledge or freeing of nested pointers, you can now simply omit destroy_context() altogether. When destroy_context() is missing, til_module_context_free() will automatically use libc's free() on the pointer returned from your create_context() (or on the pointer that was automatically created if you omitted create_context() too, for the bare til_module_context_t that got created on your behalf anyways). For the most part, these changes don't affect module creation. In some ways this eases module creation by making it more convenient access seed and n_cpus if you had no further requirement for a context struct. In other ways it's slightly annoying to have to do type-casts when you're working with your own context type, since before it was all void* and didn't require casts when assigning to your typed context variables. The elimination for requiring a destroy_context() method in simple free() of private context scenarios removes some boilerplate in simple cases. I think it's a wash for module writers, or maybe a slight win for the simple cases.
2022-05-25*: normalize on all case-insensitive comparisonsVito Caputo
I don't think rototiller is an appropriate place for being so uncooperative, if someone gets the case wrong anywhere just make it work. We should avoid making different things so subtly different that case alone is the distinction anyways, so I don't see this creating any future namespace collision problems.
2022-05-25modules/shapes: update TODO commentVito Caputo
A bunch of these have just been done
2022-05-25modules/shapes: slow spins down a bitVito Caputo
I didn't like the too fast spins where you can't even really get a read on what's going on in the shape. Suspect this will get tweaked more in the future...
2022-05-25modules/shapes: introduce pinch settingVito Caputo
This is kind of experimental, not sure how I feel about it. pinch=0..1 with a bunch of fractions, 0 disables it. pinch_spin=-1..1 same as spin= pinches=1..10 number of pinches, which come in pairs This applies to all the current shapes, for a tour: --module=rtv,channels=shapes,duration=2,context_duration=2,snow_module=none --defaults I think the speeds might go to high atm, I kind of liked the slower spins before all this more.
2022-05-24modules/shapes: fixup indentation of star+pinwheelVito Caputo
woops
2022-05-24modules/shapes: add scale settingVito Caputo
scale=1-.5 with a few other fractions in between Mostly added for the sake of rtv/compose where modules currently always go full-frame, which can be really annoying sometimes for shapes without any variety in the scale. When checkers starts filling cells using modules like shapes, it'll be interesting to see how this fares there since it'll probably be randomizing the settings too. At least floored at 50% should still produce something legible in /most/ of the checkers cell sizes. Definitely won't look like anything in the smaller end of the checkers sizes though... hrm.
2022-05-24modules/shapes: add spin setting for star+pinwheelVito Caputo
Introduces spin={-1,0,1} with a few intermediate fractions on both sides of 0. Controls rate and direction. As-is these multiple choice style options don't let you explicitly set a value in rototiller on the commandline that isn't in the set. There should probably be a flag in the desc we can set when bypassing the available options is tolerable, probably when regex's start getting enforced. That way rototiller's commandline setting parsing can just lean on the regex, and if the desc says anything can come in that passes the regex even if it's not in the values set, this can all still work and have something resembling input validation. At the end of the day, the multiple choice value sets are supposed to be a convenience/guide to a sane variety of values and of particular utility to randomizers like used by rtv/montage/compose, but also GUI setting selectors like in glimmer. They're not intended to get in the way preventing development from accessing explicit values of arbitrary precision which can be really necessary especially when trying to determine what's best for going in the values set.
2022-05-24modules/shapes: add points setting for star+pinwheelVito Caputo
Replace the hard-coded 5 points with a points=3-20 setting Nothing fancy going on here
2022-05-23modules/shapes: various small fixupsVito Caputo
- clear padding when {letter,pillar}boxed - limit costly rendering to shape size area when boxed - fix <= inclusion tests in circle and rhombus: s/<=/</
2022-05-21til: supply a seed to til_module_t.create_context()Vito Caputo
In the recent surge of ADD-style rtv+compose focused development, a bunch of modules were changed to randomize initial states at context_create() so they wouldn't be so repetitive. But the way this was done in a way that made it impossible to suppress the randomized initial state, which sometimes may be desirable in compositions. Imagine for instance something like the checkers module, rendering one module in the odd cells, and another module into the even cells. Imagine if these modules are actually the same, but if checkers used one seed for all the odd cells and another seed for all the even cells. If the modules used actually utilized the seed provided, checkers would be able to differentiate the odd from even by seeding them differently even when the modules are the same. This commit is a step in that direction, but rototiller and all the composite modules (rtv,compose,montage) are simply passing rand() as the seeds. Also none of the modules have yet been modified to actually make use of these seeds. Subsequent commits will update modules to seed their pseudo-randomized initial state from the seed value rather than always calling things like rand() themselves.
2022-05-21modules/shapes: add procedural 2D shapes moduleVito Caputo
Mostly for compositing purposes, here will be a corpus of 2D shapes, parameterized/procedurally generated and able to rotate and perhaps have other dynamics added. What shapes are there presently I had started implementing in checkers as "styles", before realizing they really should just be a separate module checkers can call into. Not terribly interesting by itself, but as blinds and checkers demonstrated, these things deliver a lot of value in compositional situations. They're creating the palette to draw from.
