# Objective
We are currently inserting an `input` into `pressed` even if it is already pressed. This also applies to releasing an input. This is not a big deal, but since we are already checking if the `input` is pressed or not we might as well remove the cost of the value update caused by the `pressed.insert` method.
Related to #4209
## Solution
Only insert or remove input if needed.

In addition to validating shaders early when debug assertions are enabled, use the new [error scopes](https://gpuweb.github.io/gpuweb/#error-scopes) API when creating a shader module.
I chose to keep the early validation (and thereby parsing twice) when debug assertions are enabled in, because it lets as handle errors ourselves and display them with pretty colors, while the error scopes API just gives us a string we can display.
This change pulls in `futures-util` as a new dependency for `future.now_or_never()`. I can inline that part of futures-lite into `bevy_render` to keep the compilation time lower if that's preferred.
# Objective
- Benchmarks are good.
- Licensing situation appears to be [cleared up](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/4225#issuecomment-1078710209).
## Solution
- Add the benchmark suite back in
- Suggested PR title: "Revert "Revert "Add cart's fork of ecs_bench_suite (#4225)" (#4252)"

# Objective
Fixes `StandardMaterial` texture update (see sample code below).
Most probably fixes#3674 (did not test)
## Solution
Material updates, such as PBR update, reference the underlying `GpuImage`. Like here: 9a7852db0f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/pbr_material.rs (L177)
However, currently the `GpuImage` update may actually happen *after* the material update fetches the gpu image. Resulting in the material actually not being updated for the correct gpu image.
In this pull req, I introduce new systemlabels for the renderassetplugin. Also assigned the RenderAssetPlugin::<Image> to the `PreAssetExtract` stage, so that it is executed before any material updates.
Code to test.
Expected behavior:
* should update to red texture
Unexpected behavior (before this merge):
* texture stays randomly as green one (depending on the execution order of systems)

# Objective
Load skeletal weights and indices from GLTF files. Animate meshes.
## Solution
- Load skeletal weights and indices from GLTF files.
- Added `SkinnedMesh` component and ` SkinnedMeshInverseBindPose` asset
- Added `extract_skinned_meshes` to extract joint matrices.
- Added queue phase systems for enqueuing the buffer writes.
Some notes:
- This ports part of # #2359 to the current main.
- This generates new `BufferVec`s and bind groups every frame. The expectation here is that the number of `Query::get` calls during extract is probably going to be the stronger bottleneck, with up to 256 calls per skinned mesh. Until that is optimized, caching buffers and bind groups is probably a non-concern.
- Unfortunately, due to the uniform size requirements, this means a 16KB buffer is allocated for every skinned mesh every frame. There's probably a few ways to get around this, but most of them require either compute shaders or storage buffers, which are both incompatible with WebGL2.

# Objective
- Improve transform propagation performance
## Solution
- Use `Changed<Transform>` as part of the `root_query` and `transform_query` to avoid the indirection of having to look up the `Entity` in the `changed_transform_query`
- Get rid of the `changed_transform_query` entirely
- `transform_propagate_system` execution time for `many_cubes -- sphere` dropped from 1.07ms to 0.159ms, an 85% reduction for this system. Frame rate increased from ~42fps to ~44fps
# Objective
A common pattern in Rust is the [newtype](https://doc.rust-lang.org/rust-by-example/generics/new_types.html). This is an especially useful pattern in Bevy as it allows us to give common/foreign types different semantics (such as allowing it to implement `Component` or `FromWorld`) or to simply treat them as a "new type" (clever). For example, it allows us to wrap a common `Vec<String>` and do things like:
```rust
#[derive(Component)]
struct Items(Vec<String>);
fn give_sword(query: Query<&mut Items>) {
query.single_mut().0.push(String::from("Flaming Poisoning Raging Sword of Doom"));
}
```
> We could then define another struct that wraps `Vec<String>` without anything clashing in the query.
However, one of the worst parts of this pattern is the ugly `.0` we have to write in order to access the type we actually care about. This is why people often implement `Deref` and `DerefMut` in order to get around this.
Since it's such a common pattern, especially for Bevy, it makes sense to add a derive macro to automatically add those implementations.
## Solution
Added a derive macro for `Deref` and another for `DerefMut` (both exported into the prelude). This works on all structs (including tuple structs) as long as they only contain a single field:
```rust
#[derive(Deref)]
struct Foo(String);
#[derive(Deref, DerefMut)]
struct Bar {
name: String,
}
```
This allows us to then remove that pesky `.0`:
```rust
#[derive(Component, Deref, DerefMut)]
struct Items(Vec<String>);
fn give_sword(query: Query<&mut Items>) {
query.single_mut().push(String::from("Flaming Poisoning Raging Sword of Doom"));
}
```
### Alternatives
There are other alternatives to this such as by using the [`derive_more`](https://crates.io/crates/derive_more) crate. However, it doesn't seem like we need an entire crate just yet since we only need `Deref` and `DerefMut` (for now).
### Considerations
One thing to consider is that the Rust std library recommends _not_ using `Deref` and `DerefMut` for things like this: "`Deref` should only be implemented for smart pointers to avoid confusion" ([reference](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/ops/trait.Deref.html)). Personally, I believe it makes sense to use it in the way described above, but others may disagree.

# Objective
Fixes#1529
Run bevy_ecs in miri
## Solution
- Don't set thread names when running in miri rust-lang/miri/issues/1717
- Update `event-listener` to `2.5.2` as previous versions have UB that is detected by miri: [event-listener commit](1fa31c553e)
- Ignore memory leaks when running in miri as they are impossible to track down rust-lang/miri/issues/1481
- Make `table_add_remove_many` test less "many" because miri is really quite slow :)
- Make CI run `RUSTFLAGS="-Zrandomize-layout" MIRIFLAGS="-Zmiri-ignore-leaks -Zmiri-tag-raw-pointers -Zmiri-disable-isolation" cargo +nightly miri test -p bevy_ecs`
# Objective
1. Spawning walls in the Breakout example was hard to follow and error-prone.
2. The strategy used in `paddle_movement_system` was somewhat convoluted.
3. Correctly modifying the size of the arena was hard, due to implicit coupling between the bounds and the bounds that the paddle can move in.
## Solution
1. Refactor this to use a WallBundle struct with a builder; neatly demonstrating some essential patterns along the way.
2. Use clamp and avoid using weird &mut strategies.
3. Refactor logic to allow users to tweak the brick size, and automatically adjust the number of rows and columns to match.
4. Make the brick layout more like classic breakout!
![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/3579909/160019864-06747361-3b5b-4944-b3fd-4978604e2ef5.png)
# Objective
- The Breakout example uses system names like `paddle_movement_system`
- _system syntax is redundant
- the [community has spoken](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/2804), and prefers to avoid `_system` system names by a more than 2:1 ratio
- existing system names were not terribly descriptive
## Solution
- rename the systems to take the form of `verb`, rather than `noun_system` to better capture the behavior they are implenting
- yeet `_system`
* Refactor assign_lights_to_clusters to always clear + update clusters, even if the screen size isn't available yet / is zero. This fixes#4167. We still avoid the "expensive" per-light work when the screen size isn't available yet. I also consolidated some logic to eliminate some redundancies.
* Removed _a ton_ of (potentially very large) per-frame reallocations
* Removed `Res<VisiblePointLights>` (a vec) in favor of `Res<GlobalVisiblePointLights>` (a hashmap). We were allocating a new hashmap every frame, the collecting it into a vec every frame, then in another system _re-generating the hashmap_. It is always used like a hashmap, might as well embrace that. We now reuse the same hashmap every frame and dont use any intermediate collections.
* We were re-allocating Clusters aabb and light vectors every frame by re-constructing Clusters every frame. We now re-use the existing collections.
* Reuse per-camera VisiblePointLight vecs when possible instead of allocating them every frame. We now only insert VisiblePointLights if the component doesn't exist yet.
This adds the concept of "default labels" for systems (currently scoped to "parallel systems", but this could just as easily be implemented for "exclusive systems"). Function systems now include their function's `SystemTypeIdLabel` by default.
This enables the following patterns:
```rust
// ordering two systems without manually defining labels
app
.add_system(update_velocity)
.add_system(movement.after(update_velocity))
// ordering sets of systems without manually defining labels
app
.add_system(foo)
.add_system_set(
SystemSet::new()
.after(foo)
.with_system(bar)
.with_system(baz)
)
```
Fixes: #4219
Related to: #4220
Credit to @aevyrie @alice-i-cecile @DJMcNab (and probably others) for proposing (and supporting) this idea about a year ago. I was a big dummy that both shut down this (very good) idea and then forgot I did that. Sorry. You all were right!
# Objective
- The components in the Breakout game are defined in a strange fashion.
- Components should decouple behavior wherever possible.
- Systems should be as general as possible, to make extending behavior easier.
- Marker components are idiomatic and useful, but marker components and query filters were not used.
- The existing design makes it challenging for beginners to extend the example into a high-quality game.
## Solution
- Refactor component definitions in the Breakout example to reflect principles above.
## Context
A small portion of the changes made in #2094. Interacts with changes in #4255; merge conflicts will have to be resolved.
# Objective
- Fixes#3970
- To support Bevy's shader abstraction(shader defs, shader imports and hot shader reloading) for compute shaders, I have followed carts advice and change the `PipelinenCache` to accommodate both compute and render pipelines.
## Solution
- renamed `RenderPipelineCache` to `PipelineCache`
- Cached Pipelines are now represented by an enum (render, compute)
- split the `SpecializedPipelines` into `SpecializedRenderPipelines` and `SpecializedComputePipelines`
- updated the game of life example
## Open Questions
- should `SpecializedRenderPipelines` and `SpecializedComputePipelines` be merged and how would we do that?
- should the `get_render_pipeline` and `get_compute_pipeline` methods be merged?
- is pipeline specialization for different entry points a good pattern

# Objective
- Add a helper for storage buffers similar to `UniformVec`
## Solution
- Add a `StorageBuffer<T, U>` where `T` is the main body of the shader struct without any final variable-sized array member, and `U` is the type of the items in a variable-sized array.
- Use `()` as the type for unwanted parts, e.g. `StorageBuffer<(), Vec4>::default()` would construct a binding that would work with `struct MyType { data: array<vec4<f32>>; }` in WGSL and `StorageBuffer<MyType, ()>::default()` would work with `struct MyType { ... }` in WGSL as long as there are no variable-sized arrays.
- Std430 requires that there is at most one variable-sized array in a storage buffer, that if there is one it is the last member of the binding, and that it has at least one item. `StorageBuffer` handles all of these constraints.
Add support for removing nodes, edges, and subgraphs. This enables live re-wiring of the render graph.
This was something I did to support the MSAA implementation, but it turned out to be unnecessary there. However, it is still useful so here it is in its own PR.

# Objective
make bevy ecs a lil bit less unsound
## Solution
yeet unsound API `World::components_mut`:
```rust
use bevy_ecs::prelude::*;
#[derive(Component)]
struct Foo(u8);
#[derive(Debug, Component)]
struct Bar([u8; 100]);
fn main() {
let mut world = World::new();
let e = world.spawn().insert(Foo(0)).id();
*world.components_mut() = Default::default();
let bar = world.entity_mut(e).remove::<Bar>().unwrap();
// oopsies reading memory copied from outside allocation
dbg!(bar);
}
```
## Objective
There recently was a discussion on Discord about a possible test case for stress-testing transform hierarchies.
## Solution
Create a test case for stress testing transform propagation.
*Edit:* I have scrapped my previous example and built something more functional and less focused on visuals.
There are three test setups:
- `TestCase::Tree` recursively creates a tree with a specified depth and branch width
- `TestCase::NonUniformTree` is the same as `Tree` but omits nodes in a way that makes the tree "lean" towards one side, like this:
<details>
<summary></summary>
![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/3957610/158069737-2ddf4e4a-7d5c-4ee5-8566-424a54a06723.png)
</details>
- `TestCase::Humanoids` creates one or more separate hierarchies based on the structure of common humanoid rigs
- this can both insert `active` and `inactive` instances of the human rig
It's possible to parameterize which parts of the hierarchy get updated (transform change) and which remain unchanged. This is based on @james7132 suggestion:
There's a probability to decide which entities should remain static. On top of that these changes can be limited to a certain range in the hierarchy (min_depth..max_depth).
# Objective
- Users occasionally ask about the latest supported Rust version.
- Fixes#288 (kinda).
## Solution
- We use "latest stable release".
- Document this information in the README.
# Objective
When loading a gltf scene with a camera, bevy will panic at ``thread 'main' panicked at 'scene contains the unregistered type `bevy_render:📷:bundle::Camera3d`. consider registering the type using `app.register_type::<T>()`', /home/jakob/dev/rust/contrib/bevy/bevy/crates/bevy_scene/src/scene_spawner.rs:332:35``.
## Solution
Register the camera types to fix the panic.
# Objective
As described in #4257, registering an Event twice would cause some systems to miss events on some starts, since the event buffer is cleared + swapped multiple times.
Fixes#4257
## Solution
A simple check whether the event is already registered is added, making adding an Event a second time a no-op.
# Objective
- Fixes#4208
## Solution
- Adds a check before inserting into an `Input`'s `just_released` set, in the same way that one exists for adding into the `just_pressed` set.
# Objective
The [glTF spec](8e798b02d2/specification/2.0/Specification.adoc (395-double-sided)) the `doubleSided` has the following to say about the `doubleSided` boolean:
> When this value is false, back-face culling is enabled, i.e., only front-facing triangles are rendered.
> When this value is true, back-face culling is disabled and double sided lighting is enabled. The back-face MUST have its normals reversed before the lighting equation is evaluated.
## Solution
Disable backface culling when `doubleSided: true`.
# Objective
- The Breakout example has a lot of configurable constant values for setup, but these are buried in the source code.
- Magic numbers scattered in the source code are hard to follow.
- Providing constants up front makes tweaking examples very approachable.
## Solution
- Move magic numbers into constants
## Context
Part of the changes made in #2094; split out for easier review.
# Objective
- Allow quick and easy testing of scenes
## Solution
- Add a `scene-viewer` tool based on `load_gltf`.
- Run it with e.g. `cargo run --release --example scene_viewer --features jpeg -- ../some/path/assets/models/Sponza/glTF/Sponza.gltf#Scene0`
- Configure the asset path as pointing to the repo root for convenience (paths specified relative to current working directory)
- Copy over the camera controller from the `shadow_biases` example
- Support toggling the light animation
- Support toggling shadows
- Support adjusting the directional light shadow projection (cascaded shadow maps will remove the need for this later)
I don't want to do too much on it up-front. Rather we can add features over time as we need them.
# Objective
- Make visible how much time is spent building the Opaque3d, AlphaMask3d, and Transparent3d passes
## Solution
- Add a `trace` feature to `bevy_core_pipeline`
- Add tracy spans around the three passes
- I didn't do this for shadows, sprites, etc as they are only one pass in the node. Perhaps it should be split into 3 nodes to allow insertion of other nodes between...?
This reverts commit 08ef2f0a28.
# Objective
- #4225 was merged without considering the licensing considerations.
- It merges in code taken from https://github.com/cart/ecs_bench_suite/tree/bevy-benches/src/bevy.
- We can safely assume that we do have a license to cart's contributions. However, these build upon 377e96e69a, for which we have no license.
- This has been verified by looking in the Cargo.toml, the root folder and the readme, none of which mention a license. Additionally, the string "license" [doesn't appear](https://github.com/rust-gamedev/ecs_bench_suite/search?q=license) in the repository.
- This means the code is all rights reserved.
- (The author of these commits also hasn't commented in #2373, though even if they had, it would be legally *dubious* to rely on that to license any code they ever wrote)
- (Note that the latest commit on the head at https://github.com/rust-gamedev/ecs_bench_suite hasn't had a license added either.)
- We are currently incorrectly claiming to be able to give an MIT/Apache 2.0 license to this code.
## Solution
- Revert it
# Objective
Better benchmarking for ECS. Fix#2062.
## Solution
Port @cart's fork of ecs_bench_suite to the official bench suite for bevy_ecs, replace cgmath with glam, update to latest bevy.
# Objective
- Reduce time spent in the `check_visibility` system
## Solution
- Use `Vec3A` for all bounding volume types to leverage SIMD optimisations and to avoid repeated runtime conversions from `Vec3` to `Vec3A`
- Inline all bounding volume intersection methods
- Add on-the-fly calculated `Aabb` -> `Sphere` and do `Sphere`-`Frustum` intersection tests before `Aabb`-`Frustum` tests. This is faster for `many_cubes` but could be slower in other cases where the sphere test gives a false-positive that the `Aabb` test discards. Also, I tested precalculating the `Sphere`s and inserting them alongside the `Aabb` but this was slower.
- Do not test meshes against the far plane. Apparently games don't do this anymore with infinite projections, and it's one fewer plane to test against. I made it optional and still do the test for culling lights but that is up for discussion.
- These collectively reduce `check_visibility` execution time in `many_cubes -- sphere` from 2.76ms to 1.48ms and increase frame rate from ~42fps to ~44fps
Tracing added support for "inline span entering", which cuts down on a lot of complexity:
```rust
let span = info_span!("my_span").entered();
```
This adapts our code to use this pattern where possible, and updates our docs to recommend it.
This produces equivalent tracing behavior. Here is a side by side profile of "before" and "after" these changes.
![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2694663/158912137-b0aa6dc8-c603-425f-880f-6ccf5ad1b7ef.png)

Context: [Discord Discussion](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/745355529777315850/950532143325519902)
Improve the PR template by adding "Changelog" and "Migration Guide" sections. These sections should hopefully help speed up the review/merge process, as well as help make release notes and migration guides.
## Solution
Added the "Changelog" section template which suggests listing out the changes of the PR. This also acts as a sort of tl;dr for reviewers (especially for larger PRs).
Added the "Migration Guide" section template which suggests describing how a user might need to migrate their codebase to account for the changes by the PR. This also helps authors/contributors keep the end-user in mind when adding or changing the API.
Both sections are optional— an author does not _need_ to fill these out. Hopefully they will, though, as it provides a handful of really great benefits.

# Objective
- Make the example a little easier to follow by removing unnecessary steps.
## Solution
- `Assets<Image>` will give us a handle for our render texture if we call `add()` instead of `set()`. No need to set it manually; one less thing to think about while reading the example.
# Objective
Partially address #407 by setting up automated deployments of `bevy`'s API reference to GitHub Pages.
## Solution
Set up a GitHub Actions workflow that builds the docs on every push to `main` and pushes a new commit to a `gh-pages` (or `docs` branch).
A few smaller additions to better address #407:
- A top level redirect was added to take "docs.bevyengine.org" directly to the `bevy` crate docs.
- A GitHub Pages CNAME file for supporting a publicly viewable domain instead of `github.io`
- A robots.txt file is added to disable all search engine crawlers that respect it from crawling it (avoid having conflicting Google search results)
- A .nojekyl file to speed up deployments since there is no Jekyll templating in the output.
This may require configuration of the `GITHUB_TOKEN` of the CI to successfully run this.
## Followup
For this to completely resolve#407, a subdomain of https://bevyengine.org/ needs to be set up to point to the CNAME location. This is initially set to "dev-docs.bevyengine.org".

# Objective
- Support compressed textures including 'universal' formats (ETC1S, UASTC) and transcoding of them to
- Support `.dds`, `.ktx2`, and `.basis` files
## Solution
- Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/3608 Look there for more details.
- Note that the functionality is all enabled through non-default features. If it is desirable to enable some by default, I can do that.
- The `basis-universal` crate, used for `.basis` file support and for transcoding, is built on bindings against a C++ library. It's not feasible to rewrite in Rust in a short amount of time. There are no Rust alternatives of which I am aware and it's specialised code. In its current state it doesn't support the wasm target, but I don't know for sure. However, it is possible to build the upstream C++ library with emscripten, so there is perhaps a way to add support for web too with some shenanigans.
- There's no support for transcoding from BasisLZ/ETC1S in KTX2 files as it was quite non-trivial to implement and didn't feel important given people could use `.basis` files for ETC1S.
# Add Transform Examples
- Adding examples for moving/rotating entities (with its own section) to resolve#2400
I've stumbled upon this project and been fiddling around a little. Saw the issue and thought I might just add some examples for the proposed transformations.
Mind to check if I got the gist correctly and suggest anything I can improve?
# Objective
- Fixes#3300
- `RunSystem` is messy
## Solution
- Adds the trick theorised in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/3300#issuecomment-991791234
P.S. I also want this for an experimental refactoring of `Assets`, to remove the duplication of `Events<AssetEvent<T>>`
Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com>
# Objective
- Hierarchy tools are not just used for `Transform`: they are also used for scenes.
- In the future there's interest in using them for other features, such as visiibility inheritance.
- The fact that these tools are found in `bevy_transform` causes a great deal of user and developer confusion
- Fixes#2758.
## Solution
- Split `bevy_transform` into two!
- Make everything work again.
Note that this is a very tightly scoped PR: I *know* there are code quality and docs issues that existed in bevy_transform that I've just moved around. We should fix those in a seperate PR and try to merge this ASAP to reduce the bitrot involved in splitting an entire crate.
## Frustrations
The API around `GlobalTransform` is a mess: we have massive code and docs duplication, no link between the two types and no clear way to extend this to other forms of inheritance.
In the medium-term, I feel pretty strongly that `GlobalTransform` should be replaced by something like `Inherited<Transform>`, which lives in `bevy_hierarchy`:
- avoids code duplication
- makes the inheritance pattern extensible
- links the types at the type-level
- allows us to remove all references to inheritance from `bevy_transform`, making it more useful as a standalone crate and cleaning up its docs

# Objective
- CI is giving a warning about duplicate dependency because of a differing versions between `winit` and `ahash` of https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasi
- PRs that are mergeable look like they're not.
## Solution
- Add this crate to the list of ignored duplicates
**Problem**
- whenever you want more than one of the builtin cameras (for example multiple windows, split screen, portals), you need to add a render graph node that executes the correct sub graph, extract the camera into the render world and add the correct `RenderPhase<T>` components
- querying for the 3d camera is annoying because you need to compare the camera's name to e.g. `CameraPlugin::CAMERA_3d`
**Solution**
- Introduce the marker types `Camera3d`, `Camera2d` and `CameraUi`
-> `Query<&mut Transform, With<Camera3d>>` works
- `PerspectiveCameraBundle::new_3d()` and `PerspectiveCameraBundle::<Camera3d>::default()` contain the `Camera3d` marker
- `OrthographicCameraBundle::new_3d()` has `Camera3d`, `OrthographicCameraBundle::new_2d()` has `Camera2d`
- remove `ActiveCameras`, `ExtractedCameraNames`
- run 2d, 3d and ui passes for every camera of their respective marker
-> no custom setup for multiple windows example needed
**Open questions**
- do we need a replacement for `ActiveCameras`? What about a component `ActiveCamera { is_active: bool }` similar to `Visibility`?

# Objective
- Make insertion of uniform components faster
## Solution
- Use batch insertion in the prepare_uniform_components system
- Improves `many_cubes -- sphere` from ~42fps to ~43fps

# Objective
fix cluster tilesize and tilecount calculations.
Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/4127 & https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/3596
## Solution
- calculate tilesize as smallest integers such that dimensions.xy() tiles will cover the screen
- calculate final dimensions as smallest integers such that final dimensions * tilesize will cover the screen
there is more cleanup that could be done in these functions. a future PR will likely remove the tilesize completely, so this is just a minimal change set to fix the current bug at small screen sizes
