This PR is based on top of #12982
# Objective
- Mesh2d currently only has an alpha blended phase. Most sprites don't
need transparency though.
- For some 2d games it can be useful to have a 2d depth buffer
## Solution
- Add an opaque phase to render Mesh2d that don't need transparency
- This phase currently uses the `SortedRenderPhase` to make it easier to
implement based on the already existing transparent phase. A follow up
PR will switch this to `BinnedRenderPhase`.
- Add a 2d depth buffer
- Use that depth buffer in the transparent phase to make sure that
sprites and transparent mesh2d are displayed correctly
## Testing
I added the mesh2d_transforms example that layers many opaque and
transparent mesh2d to make sure they all get displayed correctly. I also
confirmed it works with sprites by modifying that example locally.
---
## Changelog
- Added `AlphaMode2d`
- Added `Opaque2d` render phase
- Camera2d now have a `ViewDepthTexture` component
## Migration Guide
- `ColorMaterial` now contains `AlphaMode2d`. To keep previous
behaviour, use `AlphaMode::BLEND`. If you know your sprite is opaque,
use `AlphaMode::OPAQUE`

# Objective
- Fix issue #2611
## Solution
- Add `--generate-link-to-definition` to all the `rustdoc-args` arrays
in the `Cargo.toml`s (for docs.rs)
- Add `--generate-link-to-definition` to the `RUSTDOCFLAGS` environment
variable in the docs workflow (for dev-docs.bevyengine.org)
- Document all the workspace crates in the docs workflow (needed because
otherwise only the source code of the `bevy` package will be included,
making the argument useless)
- I think this also fixes#3662, since it fixes the bug on
dev-docs.bevyengine.org, while on docs.rs it has been fixed for a while
on their side.
---
## Changelog
- The source code viewer on docs.rs now includes links to the
definitions.
# Objective
- Before this fix, the view query in `prepare_mesh2d_view_bind_groups`
matched all views – leading to 2D view bind groups being prepared for 3D
cameras.
## Solution
- Added `With<Camera2d>` to the views query.
## Testing
- Verified the examples still work.
# Objective
- It's possible to have errors in a draw command, but these errors are
ignored
## Solution
- Return a result with the error
## Changelog
Renamed `RenderCommandResult::Failure` to `RenderCommandResult::Skip`
Added a `reason` string parameter to `RenderCommandResult::Failure`
## Migration Guide
If you were using `RenderCommandResult::Failure` to just ignore an error
and retry later, use `RenderCommandResult::Skip` instead.
This wasn't intentional, but this PR should also help with
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/12660 since we can turn a few
unwraps into error messages now.

Switches `Msaa` from being a globally configured resource to a per
camera view component.
Closes#7194
# Objective
Allow individual views to describe their own MSAA settings. For example,
when rendering to different windows or to different parts of the same
view.
## Solution
Make `Msaa` a component that is required on all camera bundles.
## Testing
Ran a variety of examples to ensure that nothing broke.
TODO:
- [ ] Make sure android still works per previous comment in
`extract_windows`.
---
## Migration Guide
`Msaa` is no longer configured as a global resource, and should be
specified on each spawned camera if a non-default setting is desired.

This commit uses the [`offset-allocator`] crate to combine vertex and
index arrays from different meshes into single buffers. Since the
primary source of `wgpu` overhead is from validation and synchronization
when switching buffers, this significantly improves Bevy's rendering
performance on many scenes.
This patch is a more flexible version of #13218, which also used slabs.
Unlike #13218, which used slabs of a fixed size, this commit implements
slabs that start small and can grow. In addition to reducing memory
usage, supporting slab growth reduces the number of vertex and index
buffer switches that need to happen during rendering, leading to
improved performance. To prevent pathological fragmentation behavior,
slabs are capped to a maximum size, and mesh arrays that are too large
get their own dedicated slabs.
As an additional improvement over #13218, this commit allows the
application to customize all allocator heuristics. The
`MeshAllocatorSettings` resource contains values that adjust the minimum
and maximum slab sizes, the cutoff point at which meshes get their own
dedicated slabs, and the rate at which slabs grow. Hopefully-sensible
defaults have been chosen for each value.
Unfortunately, WebGL 2 doesn't support the *base vertex* feature, which
is necessary to pack vertex arrays from different meshes into the same
buffer. `wgpu` represents this restriction as the downlevel flag
`BASE_VERTEX`. This patch detects that bit and ensures that all vertex
buffers get dedicated slabs on that platform. Even on WebGL 2, though,
we can combine all *index* arrays into single buffers to reduce buffer
changes, and we do so.
The following measurements are on Bistro:
Overall frame time improves from 8.74 ms to 5.53 ms (1.58x speedup):
Render system time improves from 6.57 ms to 3.54 ms (1.86x speedup):
Opaque pass time improves from 4.64 ms to 2.33 ms (1.99x speedup):
## Migration Guide
### Changed
* Vertex and index buffers for meshes may now be packed alongside other
buffers, for performance.
* `GpuMesh` has been renamed to `RenderMesh`, to reflect the fact that
it no longer directly stores handles to GPU objects.
* Because meshes no longer have their own vertex and index buffers, the
responsibility for the buffers has moved from `GpuMesh` (now called
`RenderMesh`) to the `MeshAllocator` resource. To access the vertex data
for a mesh, use `MeshAllocator::mesh_vertex_slice`. To access the index
data for a mesh, use `MeshAllocator::mesh_index_slice`.

# Replace ab_glyph with the more capable cosmic-text
Fixes#7616.
Cosmic-text is a more mature text-rendering library that handles scripts
and ligatures better than ab_glyph, it can also handle system fonts
which can be implemented in bevy in the future
Rebase of https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8808
## Changelog
Replaces text renderer ab_glyph with cosmic-text
The definition of the font size has changed with the migration to cosmic
text. The behavior is now consistent with other platforms (e.g. the
web), where the font size in pixels measures the height of the font (the
distance between the top of the highest ascender and the bottom of the
lowest descender). Font sizes in your app need to be rescaled to
approximately 1.2x smaller; for example, if you were using a font size
of 60.0, you should now use a font size of 50.0.
## Migration guide
- `Text2dBounds` has been replaced with `TextBounds`, and it now accepts
`Option`s to the bounds, instead of using `f32::INFINITY` to inidicate
lack of bounds
- Textsizes should be changed, dividing the current size with 1.2 will
result in the same size as before.
- `TextSettings` struct is removed
- Feature `subpixel_alignment` has been removed since cosmic-text
already does this automatically
- TextBundles and things rendering texts requires the `CosmicBuffer`
Component on them as well
## Suggested followups:
- TextPipeline: reconstruct byte indices for keeping track of eventual
cursors in text input
- TextPipeline: (future work) split text entities into section entities
- TextPipeline: (future work) text editing
- Support line height as an option. Unitless `1.2` is the default used
in browsers (1.2x font size).
- Support System Fonts and font families
- Example showing of animated text styles. Eg. throbbing hyperlinks

# Objective
Fix a 9-slice asymmetric border issue that
[QueenOfSquiggles](https://blobfox.coffee/@queenofsquiggles/112639035165575222)
found. Here's the behavior before:
<img width="340" alt="the-bug"
src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/54390/81ff1847-b2ea-4578-9fd0-af6ee96c5438">
## Solution
Here's the behavior with the fix.
<img width="327" alt="the-fix"
src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/54390/33a4e3f0-b6a8-448e-9654-1197218ea11d">
## Testing
I used QueenOfSquiggles
[repo](https://github.com/QueenOfSquiggles/my-bevy-learning-project) to
exercise the code. I manually went through a number of variations of the
border and caught a few other issues after the first pass. I added some
code to create random borders and though they often looked funny there
weren't any gaps like before.
### Unit Tests
I did add some tests to `slicer.rs` mostly as an exploratory programming
exercise. So they currently act as a limited, incomplete,
"golden-file"-ish approach. Perhaps they're not worth keeping.
In order to write the tests, I did add a `PartialEq` derive for
`TextureSlice`.
I only tested these changes on macOS.
---
## Changelog
Make 9-slice textures work with asymmetric borders.
# Objective
Closes#13738
## Solution
Added `from_color` to materials that would support it. Didn't add
`from_color` to `WireframeMaterial` as it doesn't seem we expect users
to be constructing them themselves.
## Testing
None
---
## Changelog
### Added
- `from_color` to `StandardMaterial` so you can construct this material
from any color type.
- `from_color` to `ColorMaterial` so you can construct this material
from any color type.
# Objective
One thing missing from the new Color implementation in 0.14 is the
ability to easily convert to a u8 representation of the rgb color.
(note this is a redo of PR https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/13739
as I needed to move the source branch
## Solution
I have added to_u8_array and to_u8_array_no_alpha to a new trait called
ColorToPacked to mirror the f32 conversions in ColorToComponents and
implemented the new trait for Srgba and LinearRgba.
To go with those I also added matching from_u8... functions and
converted a couple of cases that used ad-hoc implementations of that
conversion to use these.
After discussion on Discord of the experience of using the API I renamed
Color::linear to Color::to_linear, as without that it looks like a
constructor (like Color::rgb).
I also added to_srgba which is the other commonly converted to type of
color (for UI and 2D) to match to_linear.
Removed a redundant extra implementation of to_f32_array for LinearColor
as it is also supplied in ColorToComponents (I'm surprised that's
allowed?)
## Testing
Ran all tests and manually tested.
Added to_and_from_u8 to linear_rgba::tests
## Changelog
visible change is Color::linear becomes Color::to_linear.

# Objective
Remove some unnecessary coupling between `DynamicTextureAtlasBuilder`
and `bevy_asset`.
## Solution
Remove the dependency of `DynamicTextureAtlasBuilder::add_texture` to
`bevy_asset`, by directly passing the `Image` of the atlas to mutate,
instead of passing separate `Assets<Image>` and `Handle<Image>` for the
function to do the lookup by itself. The lookup can be done from the
caller, and this allows using the builder in contexts where the `Image`
is not stored inside `Assets`.
Clean-up a bit the font atlas files by introducing a `PlacedGlyph` type
storing the `GlyphId` and its `SubpixelOffset`, which were otherwise
always both passed as function parameters and the pair used as key in
hash maps.
## Testing
There's no change in behavior.
---
## Changelog
- Added a `PlacedGlyph` type aggregating a `GlyphId` and a
`SubpixelOffset`. That type is now used as parameter in a few text atlas
APIs, instead of passing individual values.
## Migration Guide
- Replace the `glyph_id` and `subpixel_offset` of a few text atlas APIs
by a single `place_glyph: PlacedGlyph` parameter trivially combining the
two.
# Objective
- Fixes#10909
- Fixes#8492
## Solution
- Name all matrices `x_from_y`, for example `world_from_view`.
## Testing
- I've tested most of the 3D examples. The `lighting` example
particularly should hit a lot of the changes and appears to run fine.
---
## Changelog
- Renamed matrices across the engine to follow a `y_from_x` naming,
making the space conversion more obvious.
## Migration Guide
- `Frustum`'s `from_view_projection`, `from_view_projection_custom_far`
and `from_view_projection_no_far` were renamed to
`from_clip_from_world`, `from_clip_from_world_custom_far` and
`from_clip_from_world_no_far`.
- `ComputedCameraValues::projection_matrix` was renamed to
`clip_from_view`.
- `CameraProjection::get_projection_matrix` was renamed to
`get_clip_from_view` (this affects implementations on `Projection`,
`PerspectiveProjection` and `OrthographicProjection`).
- `ViewRangefinder3d::from_view_matrix` was renamed to
`from_world_from_view`.
- `PreviousViewData`'s members were renamed to `view_from_world` and
`clip_from_world`.
- `ExtractedView`'s `projection`, `transform` and `view_projection` were
renamed to `clip_from_view`, `world_from_view` and `clip_from_world`.
- `ViewUniform`'s `view_proj`, `unjittered_view_proj`,
`inverse_view_proj`, `view`, `inverse_view`, `projection` and
`inverse_projection` were renamed to `clip_from_world`,
`unjittered_clip_from_world`, `world_from_clip`, `world_from_view`,
`view_from_world`, `clip_from_view` and `view_from_clip`.
- `GpuDirectionalCascade::view_projection` was renamed to
`clip_from_world`.
- `MeshTransforms`' `transform` and `previous_transform` were renamed to
`world_from_local` and `previous_world_from_local`.
- `MeshUniform`'s `transform`, `previous_transform`,
`inverse_transpose_model_a` and `inverse_transpose_model_b` were renamed
to `world_from_local`, `previous_world_from_local`,
`local_from_world_transpose_a` and `local_from_world_transpose_b` (the
`Mesh` type in WGSL mirrors this, however `transform` and
`previous_transform` were named `model` and `previous_model`).
- `Mesh2dTransforms::transform` was renamed to `world_from_local`.
- `Mesh2dUniform`'s `transform`, `inverse_transpose_model_a` and
`inverse_transpose_model_b` were renamed to `world_from_local`,
`local_from_world_transpose_a` and `local_from_world_transpose_b` (the
`Mesh2d` type in WGSL mirrors this).
- In WGSL, in `bevy_pbr::mesh_functions`, `get_model_matrix` and
`get_previous_model_matrix` were renamed to `get_world_from_local` and
`get_previous_world_from_local`.
- In WGSL, `bevy_sprite::mesh2d_functions::get_model_matrix` was renamed
to `get_world_from_local`.
# Objective
- Fixes#13500
- Images that are `RenderAssetUsages::RENDER_WORLD` don't free their
memory when they are no longer used
## Solution
- Remove their bind group when the handles are unused
Fixes#13118
If you use `Sprite` or `Mesh2d` and create `Camera` with
* hdr=false
* any tonemapper
You would get
```

## Changelog
Fix the bug which led to the crash when user uses any tonemapper without
hdr for rendering sprites and 2d meshes.
This commit makes us stop using the render world ECS for
`BinnedRenderPhase` and `SortedRenderPhase` and instead use resources
with `EntityHashMap`s inside. There are three reasons to do this:
1. We can use `clear()` to clear out the render phase collections
instead of recreating the components from scratch, allowing us to reuse
allocations.
2. This is a prerequisite for retained bins, because components can't be
retained from frame to frame in the render world, but resources can.
3. We want to move away from storing anything in components in the
render world ECS, and this is a step in that direction.
This patch results in a small performance benefit, due to point (1)
above.
## Changelog
### Changed
* The `BinnedRenderPhase` and `SortedRenderPhase` render world
components have been replaced with `ViewBinnedRenderPhases` and
`ViewSortedRenderPhases` resources.
## Migration Guide
* The `BinnedRenderPhase` and `SortedRenderPhase` render world
components have been replaced with `ViewBinnedRenderPhases` and
`ViewSortedRenderPhases` resources. Instead of querying for the
components, look the camera entity up in the
`ViewBinnedRenderPhases`/`ViewSortedRenderPhases` tables.
# Objective
Currently, the 2d pipeline only has a transparent pass that is used for
everything. I want to have separate passes for opaque/alpha
mask/transparent meshes just like in 3d.
This PR does the basic work to start adding new phases to the 2d
pipeline and get the current setup a bit closer to 3d.
## Solution
- Use `ViewNode` for `MainTransparentPass2dNode`
- Added `Node2d::StartMainPass`, `Node2d::EndMainPass`
- Rename everything to clarify that the main pass is currently the
transparent pass
---
## Changelog
- Added `Node2d::StartMainPass`, `Node2d::EndMainPass`
## Migration Guide
If you were using `Node2d::MainPass` to order your own custom render
node. You now need to order it relative to `Node2d::StartMainPass` or
`Node2d::EndMainPass`.
This is an adoption of #12670 plus some documentation fixes. See that PR
for more details.
---
## Changelog
* Renamed `BufferVec` to `RawBufferVec` and added a new `BufferVec`
type.
## Migration Guide
`BufferVec` has been renamed to `RawBufferVec` and a new similar type
has taken the `BufferVec` name.

# Objective
- `README.md` is a common file that usually gives an overview of the
folder it is in.
- When on <https://crates.io>, `README.md` is rendered as the main
description.
- Many crates in this repository are lacking `README.md` files, which
makes it more difficult to understand their purpose.

- There are also a few inconsistencies with `README.md` files that this
PR and its follow-ups intend to fix.
## Solution
- Create a `README.md` file for all crates that do not have one.
- This file only contains the title of the crate (underscores removed,
proper capitalization, acronyms expanded) and the <https://shields.io>
badges.
- Remove the `readme` field in `Cargo.toml` for `bevy` and
`bevy_reflect`.
- This field is redundant because [Cargo automatically detects
`README.md`
files](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/manifest.html#the-readme-field).
The field is only there if you name it something else, like `INFO.md`.
- Fix capitalization of `bevy_utils`'s `README.md`.
- It was originally `Readme.md`, which is inconsistent with the rest of
the project.
- I created two commits renaming it to `README.md`, because Git appears
to be case-insensitive.
- Expand acronyms in title of `bevy_ptr` and `bevy_utils`.
- In the commit where I created all the new `README.md` files, I
preferred using expanded acronyms in the titles. (E.g. "Bevy Developer
Tools" instead of "Bevy Dev Tools".)
- This commit changes the title of existing `README.md` files to follow
the same scheme.
- I do not feel strongly about this change, please comment if you
disagree and I can revert it.
- Add <https://shields.io> badges to `bevy_time` and `bevy_transform`,
which are the only crates currently lacking them.

## Changelog
- Added `README.md` files to all crates missing it.
This commit implements opt-in GPU frustum culling, built on top of the
infrastructure in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/12773. To
enable it on a camera, add the `GpuCulling` component to it. To
additionally disable CPU frustum culling, add the `NoCpuCulling`
component. Note that adding `GpuCulling` without `NoCpuCulling`
*currently* does nothing useful. The reason why `GpuCulling` doesn't
automatically imply `NoCpuCulling` is that I intend to follow this patch
up with GPU two-phase occlusion culling, and CPU frustum culling plus
GPU occlusion culling seems like a very commonly-desired mode.
Adding the `GpuCulling` component to a view puts that view into
*indirect mode*. This mode makes all drawcalls indirect, relying on the
mesh preprocessing shader to allocate instances dynamically. In indirect
mode, the `PreprocessWorkItem` `output_index` points not to a
`MeshUniform` instance slot but instead to a set of `wgpu`
`IndirectParameters`, from which it allocates an instance slot
dynamically if frustum culling succeeds. Batch building has been updated
to allocate and track indirect parameter slots, and the AABBs are now
supplied to the GPU as `MeshCullingData`.
A small amount of code relating to the frustum culling has been borrowed
from meshlets and moved into `maths.wgsl`. Note that standard Bevy
frustum culling uses AABBs, while meshlets use bounding spheres; this
means that not as much code can be shared as one might think.
This patch doesn't provide any way to perform GPU culling on shadow
maps, to avoid making this patch bigger than it already is. That can be
a followup.
## Changelog
### Added
* Frustum culling can now optionally be done on the GPU. To enable it,
add the `GpuCulling` component to a camera.
* To disable CPU frustum culling, add `NoCpuCulling` to a camera. Note
that `GpuCulling` doesn't automatically imply `NoCpuCulling`.

# Objective
- Fixes#12976
## Solution
This one is a doozy.
- Run `cargo +beta clippy --workspace --all-targets --all-features` and
fix all issues
- This includes:
- Moving inner attributes to be outer attributes, when the item in
question has both inner and outer attributes
- Use `ptr::from_ref` in more scenarios
- Extend the valid idents list used by `clippy:doc_markdown` with more
names
- Use `Clone::clone_from` when possible
- Remove redundant `ron` import
- Add backticks to **so many** identifiers and items
- I'm sorry whoever has to review this

## Changelog
- Added links to more identifiers in documentation.
# Objective
Fixes#12408 .
Fixes#12680.
## Solution
- Recaclulated anchor from dimensions of sprite to dimension of each
part of it (each part contains its own anchor)
# Objective
- `cargo run --release --example bevymark -- --benchmark --waves 160
--per-wave 1000 --mode mesh2d` runs slower and slower over time due to
`no_gpu_preprocessing::write_batched_instance_buffer<bevy_sprite::mesh2d::mesh::Mesh2dPipeline>`
taking longer and longer because the `BatchedInstanceBuffer` is not
cleared
## Solution
- Split the `clear_batched_instance_buffers` system into CPU and GPU
versions
- Use the CPU version for 2D meshes
`ExtractComponentPlugin` doesn't check to make sure the component is
actually present unless it's in the `QueryFilter`. This meant we placed
it everywhere. This regressed performance on many examples, such as
`many_cubes`.
Fixes#12956.
`Sprite`, `Text`, and `Handle<MeshletMesh>` were types of renderable
entities that the new segregated visible entity system didn't handle, so
they didn't appear.
Because `bevy_text` depends on `bevy_sprite`, and the visibility
computation of text happens in the latter crate, I had to introduce a
new marker component, `SpriteSource`. `SpriteSource` marks entities that
aren't themselves sprites but become sprites during rendering. I added
this component to `Text2dBundle`. Unfortunately, this is technically a
breaking change, although I suspect it won't break anybody in practice
except perhaps editors.
Fixes#12935.
## Changelog
### Changed
* `Text2dBundle` now includes a new marker component, `SpriteSource`.
Bevy uses this internally to optimize visibility calculation.
## Migration Guide
* `Text` now requires a `SpriteSource` marker component in order to
appear. This component has been added to `Text2dBundle`.
This commit splits `VisibleEntities::entities` into four separate lists:
one for lights, one for 2D meshes, one for 3D meshes, and one for UI
elements. This allows `queue_material_meshes` and similar methods to
avoid examining entities that are obviously irrelevant. In particular,
this separation helps scenes with many skinned meshes, as the individual
bones are considered visible entities but have no rendered appearance.
Internally, `VisibleEntities::entities` is a `HashMap` from the `TypeId`
representing a `QueryFilter` to the appropriate `Entity` list. I had to
do this because `VisibleEntities` is located within an upstream crate
from the crates that provide lights (`bevy_pbr`) and 2D meshes
(`bevy_sprite`). As an added benefit, this setup allows apps to provide
their own types of renderable components, by simply adding a specialized
`check_visibility` to the schedule.
This provides a 16.23% end-to-end speedup on `many_foxes` with 10,000
foxes (24.06 ms/frame to 20.70 ms/frame).
## Migration guide
* `check_visibility` and `VisibleEntities` now store the four types of
renderable entities--2D meshes, 3D meshes, lights, and UI
elements--separately. If your custom rendering code examines
`VisibleEntities`, it will now need to specify which type of entity it's
interested in using the `WithMesh2d`, `WithMesh`, `WithLight`, and
`WithNode` types respectively. If your app introduces a new type of
renderable entity, you'll need to add an explicit call to
`check_visibility` to the schedule to accommodate your new component or
components.
## Analysis
`many_foxes`, 10,000 foxes: `main`:
`many_foxes`, 10,000 foxes, this branch:
`queue_material_meshes` (yellow = this branch, red = `main`):
`queue_shadows` (yellow = this branch, red = `main`):
Currently, `MeshUniform`s are rather large: 160 bytes. They're also
somewhat expensive to compute, because they involve taking the inverse
of a 3x4 matrix. Finally, if a mesh is present in multiple views, that
mesh will have a separate `MeshUniform` for each and every view, which
is wasteful.
This commit fixes these issues by introducing the concept of a *mesh
input uniform* and adding a *mesh uniform building* compute shader pass.
The `MeshInputUniform` is simply the minimum amount of data needed for
the GPU to compute the full `MeshUniform`. Most of this data is just the
transform and is therefore only 64 bytes. `MeshInputUniform`s are
computed during the *extraction* phase, much like skins are today, in
order to avoid needlessly copying transforms around on CPU. (In fact,
the render app has been changed to only store the translation of each
mesh; it no longer cares about any other part of the transform, which is
stored only on the GPU and the main world.) Before rendering, the
`build_mesh_uniforms` pass runs to expand the `MeshInputUniform`s to the
full `MeshUniform`.
The mesh uniform building pass does the following, all on GPU:
1. Copy the appropriate fields of the `MeshInputUniform` to the
`MeshUniform` slot. If a single mesh is present in multiple views, this
effectively duplicates it into each view.
2. Compute the inverse transpose of the model transform, used for
transforming normals.
3. If applicable, copy the mesh's transform from the previous frame for
TAA. To support this, we double-buffer the `MeshInputUniform`s over two
frames and swap the buffers each frame. The `MeshInputUniform`s for the
current frame contain the index of that mesh's `MeshInputUniform` for
the previous frame.
This commit produces wins in virtually every CPU part of the pipeline:
`extract_meshes`, `queue_material_meshes`,
`batch_and_prepare_render_phase`, and especially
`write_batched_instance_buffer` are all faster. Shrinking the amount of
CPU data that has to be shuffled around speeds up the entire rendering
process.
| Benchmark | This branch | `main` | Speedup |
|------------------------|-------------|---------|---------|
| `many_cubes -nfc` | 17.259 | 24.529 | 42.12% |
| `many_cubes -nfc -vpi` | 302.116 | 312.123 | 3.31% |
| `many_foxes` | 3.227 | 3.515 | 8.92% |
Because mesh uniform building requires compute shader, and WebGL 2 has
no compute shader, the existing CPU mesh uniform building code has been
left as-is. Many types now have both CPU mesh uniform building and GPU
mesh uniform building modes. Developers can opt into the old CPU mesh
uniform building by setting the `use_gpu_uniform_builder` option on
`PbrPlugin` to `false`.
Below are graphs of the CPU portions of `many-cubes
--no-frustum-culling`. Yellow is this branch, red is `main`.
`extract_meshes`:
It's notable that we get a small win even though we're now writing to a
GPU buffer.
`queue_material_meshes`:
There's a bit of a regression here; not sure what's causing it. In any
case it's very outweighed by the other gains.
`batch_and_prepare_render_phase`:
There's a huge win here, enough to make batching basically drop off the
profile.
`write_batched_instance_buffer`:
There's a massive improvement here, as expected. Note that a lot of it
simply comes from the fact that `MeshInputUniform` is `Pod`. (This isn't
a maintainability problem in my view because `MeshInputUniform` is so
simple: just 16 tightly-packed words.)
## Changelog
### Added
* Per-mesh instance data is now generated on GPU with a compute shader
instead of CPU, resulting in rendering performance improvements on
platforms where compute shaders are supported.
## Migration guide
* Custom render phases now need multiple systems beyond just
`batch_and_prepare_render_phase`. Code that was previously creating
custom render phases should now add a `BinnedRenderPhasePlugin` or
`SortedRenderPhasePlugin` as appropriate instead of directly adding
`batch_and_prepare_render_phase`.
# Objective
- Replace `RenderMaterials` / `RenderMaterials2d` / `RenderUiMaterials`
with `RenderAssets` to enable implementing changes to one thing,
`RenderAssets`, that applies to all use cases rather than duplicating
changes everywhere for multiple things that should be one thing.
- Adopts #8149
## Solution
- Make RenderAsset generic over the destination type rather than the
source type as in #8149
- Use `RenderAssets<PreparedMaterial<M>>` etc for render materials
---
## Changelog
- Changed:
- The `RenderAsset` trait is now implemented on the destination type.
Its `SourceAsset` associated type refers to the type of the source
asset.
- `RenderMaterials`, `RenderMaterials2d`, and `RenderUiMaterials` have
been replaced by `RenderAssets<PreparedMaterial<M>>` and similar.
## Migration Guide
- `RenderAsset` is now implemented for the destination type rather that
the source asset type. The source asset type is now the `RenderAsset`
trait's `SourceAsset` associated type.
This commit makes the following optimizations:
## `MeshPipelineKey`/`BaseMeshPipelineKey` split
`MeshPipelineKey` has been split into `BaseMeshPipelineKey`, which lives
in `bevy_render` and `MeshPipelineKey`, which lives in `bevy_pbr`.
Conceptually, `BaseMeshPipelineKey` is a superclass of
`MeshPipelineKey`. For `BaseMeshPipelineKey`, the bits start at the
highest (most significant) bit and grow downward toward the lowest bit;
for `MeshPipelineKey`, the bits start at the lowest bit and grow upward
toward the highest bit. This prevents them from colliding.
The goal of this is to avoid having to reassemble bits of the pipeline
key for every mesh every frame. Instead, we can just use a bitwise or
operation to combine the pieces that make up a `MeshPipelineKey`.
## `specialize_slow`
Previously, all of `specialize()` was marked as `#[inline]`. This
bloated `queue_material_meshes` unnecessarily, as a large chunk of it
ended up being a slow path that was rarely hit. This commit refactors
the function to move the slow path to `specialize_slow()`.
Together, these two changes shave about 5% off `queue_material_meshes`:
## Migration Guide
- The `primitive_topology` field on `GpuMesh` is now an accessor method:
`GpuMesh::primitive_topology()`.
- For performance reasons, `MeshPipelineKey` has been split into
`BaseMeshPipelineKey`, which lives in `bevy_render`, and
`MeshPipelineKey`, which lives in `bevy_pbr`. These two should be
combined with bitwise-or to produce the final `MeshPipelineKey`.
# Objective
This is a necessary precursor to #9122 (this was split from that PR to
reduce the amount of code to review all at once).
Moving `!Send` resource ownership to `App` will make it unambiguously
`!Send`. `SubApp` must be `Send`, so it can't wrap `App`.
## Solution
Refactor `App` and `SubApp` to not have a recursive relationship. Since
`SubApp` no longer wraps `App`, once `!Send` resources are moved out of
`World` and into `App`, `SubApp` will become unambiguously `Send`.
There could be less code duplication between `App` and `SubApp`, but
that would break `App` method chaining.
## Changelog
- `SubApp` no longer wraps `App`.
- `App` fields are no longer publicly accessible.
- `App` can no longer be converted into a `SubApp`.
- Various methods now return references to a `SubApp` instead of an
`App`.
## Migration Guide
- To construct a sub-app, use `SubApp::new()`. `App` can no longer
convert into `SubApp`.
- If you implemented a trait for `App`, you may want to implement it for
`SubApp` as well.
- If you're accessing `app.world` directly, you now have to use
`app.world()` and `app.world_mut()`.
- `App::sub_app` now returns `&SubApp`.
- `App::sub_app_mut` now returns `&mut SubApp`.
- `App::get_sub_app` now returns `Option<&SubApp>.`
- `App::get_sub_app_mut` now returns `Option<&mut SubApp>.`
Today, we sort all entities added to all phases, even the phases that
don't strictly need sorting, such as the opaque and shadow phases. This
results in a performance loss because our `PhaseItem`s are rather large
in memory, so sorting is slow. Additionally, determining the boundaries
of batches is an O(n) process.
This commit makes Bevy instead applicable place phase items into *bins*
keyed by *bin keys*, which have the invariant that everything in the
same bin is potentially batchable. This makes determining batch
boundaries O(1), because everything in the same bin can be batched.
Instead of sorting each entity, we now sort only the bin keys. This
drops the sorting time to near-zero on workloads with few bins like
`many_cubes --no-frustum-culling`. Memory usage is improved too, with
batch boundaries and dynamic indices now implicit instead of explicit.
The improved memory usage results in a significant win even on
unbatchable workloads like `many_cubes --no-frustum-culling
--vary-material-data-per-instance`, presumably due to cache effects.
Not all phases can be binned; some, such as transparent and transmissive
phases, must still be sorted. To handle this, this commit splits
`PhaseItem` into `BinnedPhaseItem` and `SortedPhaseItem`. Most of the
logic that today deals with `PhaseItem`s has been moved to
`SortedPhaseItem`. `BinnedPhaseItem` has the new logic.
Frame time results (in ms/frame) are as follows:
| Benchmark | `binning` | `main` | Speedup |
| ------------------------ | --------- | ------- | ------- |
| `many_cubes -nfc -vpi` | 232.179 | 312.123 | 34.43% |
| `many_cubes -nfc` | 25.874 | 30.117 | 16.40% |
| `many_foxes` | 3.276 | 3.515 | 7.30% |
(`-nfc` is short for `--no-frustum-culling`; `-vpi` is short for
`--vary-per-instance`.)
---
## Changelog
### Changed
* Render phases have been split into binned and sorted phases. Binned
phases, such as the common opaque phase, achieve improved CPU
performance by avoiding the sorting step.
## Migration Guide
- `PhaseItem` has been split into `BinnedPhaseItem` and
`SortedPhaseItem`. If your code has custom `PhaseItem`s, you will need
to migrate them to one of these two types. `SortedPhaseItem` requires
the fewest code changes, but you may want to pick `BinnedPhaseItem` if
your phase doesn't require sorting, as that enables higher performance.

We can see that there is a small regression in `queue_material_meshes`
performance, but it's not nearly enough to outweigh the large gains in
`batch_and_prepare_binned_render_phase`.

# Objective
Wireframes are currently supported for 3D meshes using the
`WireframePlugin` in `bevy_pbr`. This PR adds the same functionality for
2D meshes.
Closes#5881.
## Solution
Since there's no easy way to share material implementations between 2D,
3D, and UI, this is mostly a straight copy and rename from the original
plugin into `bevy_sprite`.

# Objective
- Fixes#12712
## Solution
- Move the `float_ord.rs` file to `bevy_math`
- Change any `bevy_utils::FloatOrd` statements to `bevy_math::FloatOrd`
---
## Changelog
- Moved `FloatOrd` from `bevy_utils` to `bevy_math`
## Migration Guide
- References to `bevy_utils::FloatOrd` should be changed to

# Objective
Resolves#3824. `unsafe` code should be the exception, not the norm in
Rust. It's obviously needed for various use cases as it's interfacing
with platforms and essentially running the borrow checker at runtime in
the ECS, but the touted benefits of Bevy is that we are able to heavily
leverage Rust's safety, and we should be holding ourselves accountable
to that by minimizing our unsafe footprint.
## Solution
Deny `unsafe_code` workspace wide. Add explicit exceptions for the
following crates, and forbid it in almost all of the others.
* bevy_ecs - Obvious given how much unsafe is needed to achieve
performant results
* bevy_ptr - Works with raw pointers, even more low level than bevy_ecs.
* bevy_render - due to needing to integrate with wgpu
* bevy_window - due to needing to integrate with raw_window_handle
* bevy_utils - Several unsafe utilities used by bevy_ecs. Ideally moved
into bevy_ecs instead of made publicly usable.
* bevy_reflect - Required for the unsafe type casting it's doing.
* bevy_transform - for the parallel transform propagation
* bevy_gizmos - For the SystemParam impls it has.
* bevy_assets - To support reflection. Might not be required, not 100%
sure yet.
* bevy_mikktspace - due to being a conversion from a C library. Pending
safe rewrite.
* bevy_dynamic_plugin - Inherently unsafe due to the dynamic loading
nature.
Several uses of unsafe were rewritten, as they did not need to be using
them:
* bevy_text - a case of `Option::unchecked` could be rewritten as a
normal for loop and match instead of an iterator.
* bevy_color - the Pod/Zeroable implementations were replaceable with
bytemuck's derive macros.
# Objective
Currently the built docs only shows the logo and favicon for the top
level `bevy` crate. This makes views like
https://docs.rs/bevy_ecs/latest/bevy_ecs/ look potentially unrelated to
the project at first glance.
## Solution
Reproduce the docs attributes for every crate that Bevy publishes.
Ideally this would be done with some workspace level Cargo.toml control,
but AFAICT, such support does not exist.
# Objective
Remove color specialization from `SpritePipeline` after it became
useless in #9597
## Solution
Removed the `COLORED` flag from the pipeline key and removed the
specializing the pipeline over it.
---
## Changelog
### Removed
- `SpritePipelineKey` no longer contains the `COLORED` flag. The flag
has had no effect on how the pipeline operates for a while.
## Migration Guide
- The raw values for the `HDR`, `TONEMAP_IN_SHADER` and `DEBAND_DITHER`
flags have changed, so if you were constructing the pipeline key from
raw `u32`s you'll have to account for that.
Fixes#12600
## Solution
Removed Into<AssetId<T>> for Handle<T> as proposed in Issue
conversation, fixed dependent code
## Migration guide
If you use passing Handle by value as AssetId, you should pass reference
or call .id() method on it
Before (0.13):
`assets.insert(handle, value);`
After (0.14):
`assets.insert(&handle, value);`
or
`assets.insert(handle.id(), value);`
# Objective
Improve code quality involving fixedbitset.
## Solution
Update to fixedbitset 0.5. Use the new `grow_and_insert` function
instead of `grow` and `insert` functions separately.
This should also speed up most of the set operations involving
fixedbitset. They should be ~2x faster, but testing this against the
stress tests seems to show little to no difference. The multithreaded
executor doesn't seem to be all that much faster in many_cubes and
many_foxes. These use cases are likely dominated by other operations or
the bitsets aren't big enough to make them the bottleneck.
This introduces a duplicate dependency due to petgraph and wgpu, but the
former may take some time to update.
## Changelog
Removed: `Access::grow`
## Migration Guide
`Access::grow` has been removed. It's no longer needed. Remove all
references to it.
