2022-04-25modules/flui2d: colorify the density fieldVito Caputo
This is a first approximation at introducing colors to flui2d, the emitter colors aren't really well tuned or anything yet.
2022-04-25modules/flui2d: introduce another emitter; "clockgrid"Vito Caputo
Inspired by my little fomo match-four game PoC, this is a similar style phased emitter grid layout producing some neat turbulent interactions. Introduces an emitters={figure8,clockgrid} setting, and when clockgrid is used, a clockstep=[.05-.99] for the radians step made from one grid cell's emitter to the next where 1=2PI.
2022-04-25modules/pixbounce: rand start pos and dirPhilip J Freeman
2022-04-25modules/swarm: use put_pixel_checked() to stop segfaultingVito Caputo
During rtv runs we'd occasionally segfault in the unchecked line drawing. This needs to be fixed, but for now just go slower.
2022-04-25modules/blinds: add count and orientation settingsVito Caputo
This adds count=N and orientation={horizontal,vertical} settings. Which was precipitated by the introduction of a vertical blinds mode. e.g.: --module=blinds,count=32,orientation=vertical or for a quick tour of the possibilities: --module=rtv,channels=blinds,duration=1,context_duration=1,snow_duration=0 weeeee
2022-04-25modules/compose: implement layer setting randomizerVito Caputo
It's getting crazy in here, this is fun: --module=rtv,channels=compose,duration=1,snow_duration=0,context_duration=1 which will rejigger the commpose module w/randomized layers every second.
2022-04-25modules/*: set TIL_MODULE_OVERLAYABLE where appropriateVito Caputo
In the interests of facilitating randomized automagic layered compositing, tell the world when you're overlay-appropriate.
2022-04-25til: add til_module_t.flags and TIL_MODULE_OVERLAYABLEVito Caputo
For modules which are overlay-appropriate, they should indicate it when initializing their respective til_module_t. If they intend to participate in automagic compositing as overlays anyways.
2022-04-24*: free setup allocations via til_setup_free()Vito Caputo
This should plug a bulk of the setup leaks. Some of the free_funcs still need to be changed to bespoke ones in modules that allocate nested things in their respective setup, so those are still leaking the nested things which are usually just a small strdup of some kind.
2022-04-24til_setup: introduce til_setup_free()Vito Caputo
simple wrapper around til_setup_t.free()
2022-04-24*: s/void */til_setup_t */Vito Caputo
This brings something resembling an actual type to the private objects returrned in *res_setup. Internally libtil/rototiller wants this to be a til_setup_t, and it's up to the private users of what's returned in *res_setup to embed this appropriately and either use container_of() or casting when simply embedded at the start to go between til_setup_t and their private containing struct. Everywhere *res_setup was previously allocated using calloc() is now using til_setup_new() with a free_func, which til_setup_new() will initialize appropriately. There's still some remaining work to do with the supplied free_func in some modules, where free() isn't quite appropriate. Setup freeing isn't actually being performed yet, but this sets the foundation for that to happen in a subsequent commit that cleans up the setup leaks. Many modules use a static default setup for when no setup has been provided. In those cases, the free_func would be NULL, which til_setup_new() refuses to do. When setup freeing actually starts happening, it'll simply skip freeing when til_setup_t.free_func is NULL.
2022-04-24til_setup: add til_setup_new() helperVito Caputo
For use when setup functions allocate their private setup to return in *res_setup. They specify the size of their private setup, and supply the free function to use. This may be libc's free() when it's a simple setup struct, or a bespoke free function when deep/complex freeing is required for cleanup. It's expected that callers will be embedding til_setup_t at the start of their private setup struct, and returning a pointer to this in *res_setup which would be the same value as a pointer to to their private setup struct.
2022-04-24til_setup: introduce til_setup_tVito Caputo
Preparatory commit for providing a res_setup type to replace void*. The impetus for this isn't just pursuit of less void*, but primarily implementing setup freeing by embedding this struct into the private setup types. An alternative method of adding setup freeing would have been to introduce something like til_module_t.free_setup(). But that would require having the til_module_t on hand, and the whole setup machinery is more generalized than til_module_t anyways. This way anything can simply embed the struct in their private setup instance and return the pointer to that in *res_setup. They should always be able to find their containing struct's offset from the til_setup_t* they returned. Either by using container_of(), or simply placing it at the start of the private setup struct.
2022-04-22modules/compose: randomize layer settingsVito Caputo
Randomize the setting of the layered modules like rtv does. This needs to free the setup, similarly to the others, once that facility is added.
2022-04-22modules/montage: randomize module setupsVito Caputo
Instead of always showing defaults, randomize the setup like rtv does.
2022-04-22til: make til_module_randomize_setup() return -errnoVito Caputo
This makes the arg return optional by using a res_arg pointer, instead returning -ENOMEM when it would have returned NULL on allocation failures. This also makes it possible to detect when no setup was performed, by returning 0 in such a case. Now returns 1 when setup occurs and res pointers populated.
2022-04-22til: add til_module_randomize_setup() from rtvVito Caputo
This commit pulls the setup randomizer out of rtv into libtil proper, so other modules may make use of it. Other than adding an assert no functional changes occurred. It may make sense to split this into two functions; one which takes a til_module_t as-is, and a lower-level bare setup function callback based function that doesn't know about til_module_t the former would call into. That way generic setup randomization can occur (the same setup machinery is used in video contexts for example) without necessarily having a til_module_t on hand.
2022-04-22til: wire up modules/checkersVito Caputo
expose the checkers module to the rest of the world
2022-04-22modules/checkers: experimenting with a checkers overlayVito Caputo
This adds a checkers style overlay module, it's not terribly interesting but may be made more useful if modules start differentiating themselves as substantial vs. overlay effects. It'd be nice if rtv/compose could automagically apply and randomize overlay modules atop others, which would make use of this type of thing as well as encourage more small modules like these be written.
2022-04-22modules/montage: stop assuming modules don't fragmentVito Caputo
There's been a longstanding todo item in montage where it was ignoring the fragmenter returned by a module's prepare_frame(). This commit continues with the single-threaded rendering of the modules within their respective tiles, still ad-hoc open coded. But now actually applies the fragmenter returned as if the rendering were being threaded, since when a module returns a fragmenter from its prepare_frame() it may strongly depend on that fragmenting for its output.
2022-04-19modules/blinds: add simple 80s-aesthetic window blindsVito Caputo
This isn't super interesting but I might just start adding simplistic overlay style modules for compositing/transition use.
2022-04-19*: s/til_fb_fragment_zero/til_fb_fragment_clear/Vito Caputo
Mechanical renaming of "zero" to "clear" throughout for this context.
2022-04-19til_fb: introduce til_fb_fragment_fill()Vito Caputo
Just adding a convenience function targeting simple overlay use cases where the fragmenter is exploited for producing patterns and the renderer may wish to fill those fragments vs. zero them. A future commit should also really rename til_fb_fragment_zero() to til_fb_fragment_clear()
2022-04-15til_threads: propagate threaded til_fb_fragment.zeroedVito Caputo
Currently when a threaded renderer performed til_fb_fragment_zero() in render_fragment() vs. prepare_frame(), the til_fb_fragment.zeroed maintenance would stay isolated to the ephemeral fragment generated by the fragmenter. With this commit, when all ephemeral fragments rendered in a threaded fashion for a given frame returned a set .zeroed member, the outer frame's .zeroed member gets set. This should enable proper threaded zeroing of the frame in render_fragment(). Note that since it's careful to actually count the number of zeroed ephemeral subfragments and only propagates when that count matches the number of subfragments rendered in the entire frame, it's also supported to use til_fb_fragment_zero() conditionally on just some fragments while not zeroing others and the entire frame will not get its .zeroed member set. Imagine a renderer which randomly zeroes out some fragments, while drawing into others, this will be honored as a non-zeroed frame on the whole.
2022-04-14til_fb: copy zeroed in til_fb_fragment_tile_single()Vito Caputo
Oversight from when zeroed tracking was introduced in d9db26.
2022-04-14modules/*: remove srand() initializationsVito Caputo
Just rely on til_init()'s srand() ensuring things are fresh.
2022-04-14til: seed srand in til_init()Vito Caputo
A future commit will remove srand() calls from modules, relying instead on this srand() in til_init(). As mentioned in the comment, if modules actually want reproducible deterministic pseudo-random values they should use rand_r() (or their own PRNG) where they can control the seed.
2022-04-13til_fb: put back til_fb_context() accessorVito Caputo
This was removed before, despite being left in the header by mistake. Putting back for glimmer's sake.
2022-04-01til_settings: make res_{desc,setting} optionalVito Caputo
The til_settings_get_and_describe_value() helper (and the calling setup methods in the modules) can be useful in independently spitting out a baked setup instance from a fully resolved til_settings_t which has already gone through the whole rigamarole of getting populated and described. Normally when this all happens in one place with the setup instance then either immediately fed to create_context(), or stowed somewhere for future use, it's not a problem to always require the res_desc,res_setting parameters. But especially in GUI scenarios (glimmer) the whole populate and describe phase of til_settings_t can very easily be done in a separate place from the convenient place to produce a setup out of it. So when the caller /knows/ the setup is finished and a subsequent call with the same til_settings_t would produce a res_setup immediately, the caller should be able to omit res_setting and res_desc as they're of no use now. This is all kind of crufty, but it's nice to have all this happening in a single setup method to help keep the res_setup phase from diverging/becoming out of sync with the populate+describe phase. Will live with it for now. Frontends get written far less than modules, so the API cruft from the frontend perspective is relatively benign. It's still relatively sane and ergonomic from the module writer's perspective.
2022-04-01modules/*: instantiate and use setupsVito Caputo
Now modules allocate and return an opaque setup pointer in res_setup when they implement a setup method. Defaults are utilized when ${module}_create_context() receives a NULL setup. The default setup used in this case should match the defaults/preferred values emitted by the module's setup method. But performing setup should always be optional, so a NULL setup provided to create_context() is to be expected. No cleanup of these setup instances is currently performed, so it's a small memory leak for now. Since these are opaque and may contain nested references to other allocations, simply using free() somewhere in the frontend is insufficient. There will probably need to be something like a til_module_t.setup_free() method added in the future which modules may assign libc's free() to when appropriate, or their own more elaborate version. Lifecycle for the settings is very simple; the setup method returns an instance, the caller is expected to free it when no longer needed (once free is implemented). The create_context consumer of a given setup must make its own copy of the settings if necessary, and may not keep a reference - it must assume the setup will be freed immediately after create_context() returns. This enables the ability to reuse a setup instance across multiple create_context() calls if desired, one can imagine something like running the same module with the same settings multiple times across multiple displays for instance. If the module has significant entropy the output will differ despite being configured identically... With this commit one may change settings for any of the modules *while* the modules are actively rendering a given context, and the settings should *not* be visible. They should only affect the context they're supplied to.
2022-03-30*: wire up context-specific setup instancesVito Caputo
This is a preparatory commit for cleaning up the existing sloppy global-ish application of settings during the iterative _setup() call sequences. Due to how this has evolved from a very rudimentary thing enjoying many assumptions about there ever only being a single module instance being configured by the settings, there's a lot of weirdness and inconsistency surrounding module setup WRT changes being applied instantaneously to /all/ existing and future context's renderings of a given module vs. requiring a new context be created to realize changes. This commit doesn't actually change any of that, but puts the plumbing in place for the setup methods to allocate and initialize a private struct encapsulating the parsed and validated setup once the settings are complete. This opaque setup pointer will then be provided to the associated create_context() method as the setup pointer. Then the created context can configure itself using the provided setup when non-NULL, or simply use defaults when NULL. A future commit will update the setup methods to allocate and populate their respective setup structs, adding the structs as needed, as well as updating their create_context() methods to utilize those setups. One consequence of these changes when fully realized will be that every setting change will require a new context be created from the changed settings for the change to be realized. For settings appropriately manipulated at runtime the concept of knobs was introduced but never finished. That will have to be finished in the future to enable more immediate/interactive changing of settings-like values appropriate for interactive manipulation
2022-03-30*: use til_module_create_context() in more placesVito Caputo
Just mechanical replacement of some remaining ad-hoc til_module_t.create_context() calls. The montage module continues using an ad-hoc call because it forces num_cpus=1 since it's already a threaded using a fragment per module's tile. This suggests the til_module_create_context() call should probably accept a num_cpus parameter, perhaps treating a 0 value as the "automagic" discover value so callers can explicitly set it when necessary.
2022-03-30til_settings: fix empty values in til_settings_new()Vito Caputo
Previously if you supplied an empty setting value like so: "--module=compose,layers=" The interactive setup would get itself into an infinite loop because the layers setting is already present, but has a NULL value. This wasn't a NULL value, it was a "" value. The parser should just fallthrough to the value state from the equal state after recording the value's start pointer. This will result in a "" value getting allocated and assigned to the value before the loop breaks out on the '\0' immediately following the '='. There are probably other edge cases which need better handling here.
2022-03-30til_settings: remove vestigial return missed by 7ff8efVito Caputo
Commit 7ff8ef included some fast and dirty fixups to til_settings_apply_desc_generators(), but left an inappropriate return path out of the iterator resulting in the caller accessing a NULL res_desc. The practical result of this was segfaulting in rototiller when configuring anything utilizing desc generators, like drm_fb.
2022-03-29build: make sdl2 and rototiller bin optionalVito Caputo
Now that there's a decoupled libtil usable by alternative frontends by vendoring rototiller, the build should support fb-less rototiller-less configurations. In lieu of this change glimmer's build requires sdl2 despite not actually utilizing sdl_fb. Now that shouldn't be necessary, should there be neither libdrm or sdl2 present we'll only produce libtil and no rototiller binary at all.
2022-03-28modules/swarm: add lines drawing styleVito Caputo
Introduce drawing styles, adding a line style in addition to the existing points. Settings are style={points,lines}, default is now lines.
2022-03-28modules/swarm: remove extra ticks multiply on leader radsVito Caputo
No idea why this was in there. Though it makes the leader jump by huge values, since it still winds up as samples on the same path, just non-continuous, the swarm still appears correct, hiding this braino. If you reduce the SWARM_SIZE to a tiny number like 2 though, it becomes very obvious that the leader is teleporting all over the place.
2022-03-28til_settings: provide a user_data pointer w/til_setting_tVito Caputo
Particularly in implementing a stateful/"retained" GUI it can be desirable to embed something like a widget pointer in a til_setting_t once described and shown to the user. Management of this pointer is largely nonexistant from the libtil perspective. It's simply initialized to NULL when a new setting is added, and never accessed again. 100% the caller's responsibility. This works fine since libtil/til_settings_t only accumulates til_setting_t entries and never removes them except when discarding an entire til_settings_t wholesale.
2022-03-25modules/compose: -EINVAL on empty layers settingVito Caputo
This resulted in a NULL ptr deref, simply treating as invalid since what's the point of handling a composition devoid of any layers - it's probably a mistake.
2022-03-19modules/sparkler: clarify BSP-tree setting descsVito Caputo
attempt at making these more clear
2022-03-19*: de-constify til_setting_t throughoutVito Caputo
Now that til_setting_t.desc is not only a thing, but a thing that is intended to be refreshed regularly in the course of things like GUI interactive settings construction, it's not really appropriate to try even act like this these are const anymore.
2022-03-19*: use til_module_destroy_context()Vito Caputo
Mechanically replaced ad-hoc til_module_t.destroy_context() invocations with helper calls.
2022-03-19til: add til_module_destroy_context() helperVito Caputo
2022-03-19*: normalize setting description capitalizationsVito Caputo
Always only capitalize the first letter, never capitalize like titles.
2022-03-19*: drop til_module_t.licenseVito Caputo
Originally the thinking was that rototiller modules would become dlopen()ed shared objects, and that it would make sense to let them be licensed differently. At this time only some modules I have written were gplv3, Phil's modules are all gplv2, and I'm not inclined to pivot towards a dlopen model. So this commit drops the license field from til_module_t, relicenses my v3 code to v2, and adds a gplv2 LICENSE file to the source root dir. As of now rototiller+libtil and all its modules are simply gplv2, and anything linking in libtil must use a gplv2 compatible license - the expectation is that you just use gplv2.
2022-03-19til_settings: introduce til_settings_reset_descs()Vito Caputo
This is helpful for forcing underlying setup methods to redescribe their settings, regardless of what a til_settings_t's internal state is.
2022-03-14til_args: introduce til_args_pruned_parse() variantVito Caputo
When integrating libtil into higher order application/gui toolkits, it's desirable to passthru any unhandled arguments to the toolkit's initializer. The specific impetus for adding this is glimmer, which uses gtk/glib where g_application_run() wants an argv but won't know what to do with the libtil-recognized args.
2022-03-12til_settings: always describe relevant settingsVito Caputo
The existing iterative *_setup() interface only described settings not found, quietly accepting usable settings already present in the til_settings_t. This worked fine for the existing interactive text setup thing, but it's especially problematic for providing a GUI setup frontend. This commit makes it so the *_setup() methods always describe undescribed settings they recognize, leaving the setup frontend loop calling into the *_setup() methods to both apply the description validation if wanted and actually tie the description to respective setting returned by the _setup() methods as being related to the returned description. A new helper called til_settings_get_and_describe_value() has been introduced primarily for use of module setup methods to simplify this nonsense, replacing the til_settings_get_value() calls and surrounding logic, but retaining the til_setting_desc_t definitions largely verbatim. This also results in discarding of some ad-hoc til_setting_desc_check() calls, now that there's a centralized place where settings become "described" (setup_interactively in the case of rototiller). Now a GUI frontend (like glimmer) would just provide its own setup_interactively() equivalent for constructing its widgets for a given *_setup() method's chain of returned descs. Whereas in the past this wasn't really feasible unless there was never going to be pre-supplied settings. I suspect the til_setting_desc_check() integration into setup_interactively() needs more work, but I think this is good enough for now and I'm out of spare time for the moment.
2022-03-11main: move til_init() to start of mainVito Caputo
Currently this was done rather late for vestigial pre-libtil reasons; it used to be a local function for specifically "create rendering threads" purpose. But it's rather awkward now to see such an initializer called late after myriad other til_* API is being used, and there's nothing gauranteeing til_init() will continue to strictly create rendering threads. Nothing is actually changing in what til_init() does here, it's just a cosmetic movement of the call site and s/librototiller/libtil/ in the error message.
2022-03-11main: simplify setup_from_args()Vito Caputo
Just removing some copy pasta from the error paths, nothing functionally different.
