# Objective
Bevy should expose all wgpu types needed for building rendering pipelines.
Closes#2818
## Solution
Add wgpu's StencilOperation to bevy_render2::render_resource's export.
This updates the `pipelined-rendering` branch to use the latest `bevy_ecs` from `main`. This accomplishes a couple of goals:
1. prepares for upcoming `custom-shaders` branch changes, which were what drove many of the recent bevy_ecs changes on `main`
2. prepares for the soon-to-happen merge of `pipelined-rendering` into `main`. By including bevy_ecs changes now, we make that merge simpler / easier to review.
I split this up into 3 commits:
1. **add upstream bevy_ecs**: please don't bother reviewing this content. it has already received thorough review on `main` and is a literal copy/paste of the relevant folders (the old folders were deleted so the directories are literally exactly the same as `main`).
2. **support manual buffer application in stages**: this is used to enable the Extract step. we've already reviewed this once on the `pipelined-rendering` branch, but its worth looking at one more time in the new context of (1).
3. **support manual archetype updates in QueryState**: same situation as (2).
# Objective
Fixes a usability problem where the user is unable to use their reference to a ComputePipeline in their compute pass.
## Solution
Implements Deref, allowing the user to obtain the reference to the underlying wgpu::ComputePipeline
# Objective
Forward perspective projections have poor floating point precision distribution over the depth range. Reverse projections fair much better, and instead of having to have a far plane, with the reverse projection, using an infinite far plane is not a problem. The infinite reverse perspective projection has become the industry standard. The renderer rework is a great time to migrate to it.
## Solution
All perspective projections, including point lights, have been moved to using `glam::Mat4::perspective_infinite_reverse_rh()` and so have no far plane. As various depth textures are shared between orthographic and perspective projections, a quirk of this PR is that the near and far planes of the orthographic projection are swapped when the Mat4 is computed. This has no impact on 2D/3D orthographic projection usage, and provides consistency in shaders, texture clear values, etc. throughout the codebase.
## Known issues
For some reason, when looking along -Z, all geometry is black. The camera can be translated up/down / strafed left/right and geometry will still be black. Moving forward/backward or rotating the camera away from looking exactly along -Z causes everything to work as expected.
I have tried to debug this issue but both in macOS and Windows I get crashes when doing pixel debugging. If anyone could reproduce this and debug it I would be very grateful. Otherwise I will have to try to debug it further without pixel debugging, though the projections and such all looked fine to me.
Makes some tweaks to the SubApp labeling introduced in #2695:
* Ergonomics improvements
* Removes unnecessary allocation when retrieving subapp label
* Removes the newly added "app macros" crate in favor of bevy_derive
* renamed RenderSubApp to RenderApp
@zicklag (for reference)
This is a rather simple but wide change, and it involves adding a new `bevy_app_macros` crate. Let me know if there is a better way to do any of this!
---
# Objective
- Allow adding and accessing sub-apps by using a label instead of an index
## Solution
- Migrate the bevy label implementation and derive code to the `bevy_utils` and `bevy_macro_utils` crates and then add a new `SubAppLabel` trait to the `bevy_app` crate that is used when adding or getting a sub-app from an app.
# Objective
The default perspective projection near plane being at 1 unit feels very far away if one considers units to directly map to real world units such as metres. Not being able to see anything that is closer than 1m is unnecessarily limiting. Using a default of 0.1 makes more sense as it is difficult to even focus on things closer than 10cm in the real world.
## Solution
- Changed the default perspective projection near plane to 0.1.
# Objective

# Objective
This fixes not having access to StorageTextureAccess in the API, which is needed for using storage textures
## Solution
Added it to the use in render_resource module

This decouples the opinionated "core pipeline" from the new (less opinionated) bevy_render crate. The "core pipeline" is intended to be used by crates like bevy_sprites, bevy_pbr, bevy_ui, and 3rd party crates that extends core rendering functionality.
Makes the "Render App World" directly available to Extract step systems as a `RenderWorld` resource. Prior to this, there was no way to directly read / write render world state during the Extract step. The only way to make changes was through Commands (which were applied at the end of the stage).
```rust
// `thing` is an "app world resource".
fn extract_thing(thing: Res<Thing>, mut render_world: ResMut<RenderWorld>) {
render_world.insert_resource(ExtractedThing::from(thing));
}
```
RenderWorld makes a number of scenarios possible:
* When an extract system does big allocations, it is now possible to reuse them across frames by retrieving old values from RenderWorld (at the cost of reduced parallelism from unique RenderWorld borrows).
* Enables inserting into the same resource across multiple extract systems
* Enables using past RenderWorld state to inform future extract state (this should generally be avoided)
Ultimately this is just a subset of the functionality we want. In the future, it would be great to have "multi-world schedules" to enable fine grained parallelism on the render world during the extract step. But that is a research project that almost certainly won't make it into 0.6. This is a good interim solution that should easily port over to multi-world schedules if/when they land.
* bevy_pbr2: Add support for most of the StandardMaterial textures
Normal maps are not included here as they require tangents in a vertex attribute.
* bevy_pbr2: Ensure RenderCommandQueue is ready for PbrShaders init
* texture_pipelined: Add a light to the scene so we can see stuff
* WIP bevy_pbr2: back to front sorting hack
* bevy_pbr2: Uniform control flow for texture sampling in pbr.frag
From 'fintelia' on the Bevy Render Rework Round 2 discussion:
"My understanding is that GPUs these days never use the "execute both branches
and select the result" strategy. Rather, what they do is evaluate the branch
condition on all threads of a warp, and jump over it if all of them evaluate to
false. If even a single thread needs to execute the if statement body, however,
then the remaining threads are paused until that is completed."
* bevy_pbr2: Simplify texture and sampler names
The StandardMaterial_ prefix is no longer needed
* bevy_pbr2: Match default 'AmbientColor' of current bevy_pbr for now
* bevy_pbr2: Convert from non-linear to linear sRGB for the color uniform
* bevy_pbr2: Add pbr_pipelined example
* Fix view vector in pbr frag to work in ortho
* bevy_pbr2: Use a 90 degree y fov and light range projection for lights
* bevy_pbr2: Add AmbientLight resource
* bevy_pbr2: Convert PointLight color to linear sRGB for use in fragment shader
* bevy_pbr2: pbr.frag: Rename PointLight.projection to view_projection
The uniform contains the view_projection matrix so this was incorrect.
* bevy_pbr2: PointLight is an OmniLight as it has a radius
* bevy_pbr2: Factoring out duplicated code
* bevy_pbr2: Implement RenderAsset for StandardMaterial
* Remove unnecessary texture and sampler clones
* fix comment formatting
* remove redundant Buffer:from
* Don't extract meshes when their material textures aren't ready
* make missing textures in the queue step an error
