# Objective
- Fixes#6370
- Closes#6581
## Solution
- Added the following lints to the workspace:
- `std_instead_of_core`
- `std_instead_of_alloc`
- `alloc_instead_of_core`
- Used `cargo +nightly fmt` with [item level use
formatting](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustfmt/?version=v1.6.0&search=#Item%5C%3A)
to split all `use` statements into single items.
- Used `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets --all-features --fix
--allow-dirty` to _attempt_ to resolve the new linting issues, and
intervened where the lint was unable to resolve the issue automatically
(usually due to needing an `extern crate alloc;` statement in a crate
root).
- Manually removed certain uses of `std` where negative feature gating
prevented `--all-features` from finding the offending uses.
- Used `cargo +nightly fmt` with [crate level use
formatting](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustfmt/?version=v1.6.0&search=#Crate%5C%3A)
to re-merge all `use` statements matching Bevy's previous styling.
- Manually fixed cases where the `fmt` tool could not re-merge `use`
statements due to conditional compilation attributes.
## Testing
- Ran CI locally
## Migration Guide
The MSRV is now 1.81. Please update to this version or higher.
## Notes
- This is a _massive_ change to try and push through, which is why I've
outlined the semi-automatic steps I used to create this PR, in case this
fails and someone else tries again in the future.
- Making this change has no impact on user code, but does mean Bevy
contributors will be warned to use `core` and `alloc` instead of `std`
where possible.
- This lint is a critical first step towards investigating `no_std`
options for Bevy.

# Objective
Fixes#14540
## Solution
- Clean slab layouts from stale `SlabId`s when freeing meshes
- Technically performance requirements of freeing now increase based on
the number of existing meshes, but maybe it doesn't matter too much in
practice
- This was the case before this PR too, but it's technically possible to
free and allocate 2^32 times and overflow with `SlabId`s and cause
incorrect behavior. It looks like new meshes would then override old
ones.
## Testing
- Tested in `loading_screen` example and tapping keyboard 1 and 2.
# Objective
There is a tiny seam at the top of the annulus caused by normal
floating-point error in calculating the coordinates. When generating the
last pair of triangles, given `n == i` then `(TAU / n) * i` does not
equal `TAU` exactly.
Fixes https://github.com/komadori/bevy_mod_outline/issues/42
## Solution
This can be fixed by changing the calculation so that `(TAU / n) * (i %
n) == 0.0`, which is equivalent for trigonometric purposes.
## Testing
Added the unit test
`bevy_render::mesh::primitives::dim2::tests::test_annulus`.
# Objective
Fixes#14782
## Solution
Enable the lint and fix all upcoming hints (`--fix`). Also tried to
figure out the false-positive (see review comment). Maybe split this PR
up into multiple parts where only the last one enables the lint, so some
can already be merged resulting in less many files touched / less
potential for merge conflicts?
Currently, there are some cases where it might be easier to read the
code with the qualifier, so perhaps remove the import of it and adapt
its cases? In the current stage it's just a plain adoption of the
suggestions in order to have a base to discuss.
## Testing
`cargo clippy` and `cargo run -p ci` are happy.
# Objective
`MeshVertexAttributeId` is currently a wrapper type around a `usize`.
Application developers are exposed to the `usize` whenever they need to
define a new custom vertex attribute, which requires them to generate a
random `usize` ID to avoid clashes with any other custom vertex
attributes in the same application. As the range of a `usize` is
platform dependent, developers on 64-bit machines may inadvertently
generate random values which will fail to compile for a 32-bit target.
The use of a `usize` here encourages non-portable behaviour and should
be replaced with a fixed width type.
## Solution
In this PR I have changed the ID type from `usize` to `u64`, but equally
a `u32` could be used at the risk of breaking some extant non-portable
programs and increasing the chance of an ID collision.
# Objective
Fixes#14365
## Migration Guide
- When using the iterator returned by `Mesh::attributes` or
`Mesh::attributes_mut` the first value of the tuple is not the
`MeshVertexAttribute` instead of `MeshVertexAttributeId`. To access the
`MeshVertexAttributeId` use the `MeshVertexAttribute.id` field.

# Objective
Implements #14547
## Solution
Add a function `invert_winding` for `Mesh` that inverts the winding for
`LineList`, `LineStrip`, `TriangleList` and `TriangleStrip`.

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`.

# Objective
- Bevy currently has lot of invalid intra-doc links, let's fix them!
- Also make CI test them, to avoid future regressions.
- Helps with #1983 (but doesn't fix it, as there could still be explicit
links to docs.rs that are broken)
## Solution
- Make `cargo r -p ci -- doc-check` check fail on warnings (could also
be changed to just some specific lints)
- Manually fix all the warnings (note that in some cases it was unclear
to me what the fix should have been, I'll try to highlight them in a
self-review)
# Objective
Allow random sampling from the surfaces of triangle meshes.
## Solution
This has two parts.
Firstly, rendering meshes can now yield their collections of triangles
through a method `Mesh::triangles`. This has signature
```rust
pub fn triangles(&self) -> Result<Vec<Triangle3d>, MeshTrianglesError> { //... }
```
and fails in a variety of cases — the most obvious of these is that the
mesh must have either the `TriangleList` or `TriangleStrip` topology,
and the others correspond to malformed vertex or triangle-index data.
With that in hand, we have the second piece, which is
`UniformMeshSampler`, which is a `Vec3`-valued
[distribution](https://docs.rs/rand/latest/rand/distributions/trait.Distribution.html)
that samples uniformly from collections of triangles. It caches the
triangles' distribution of areas so that after its initial setup,
sampling is allocation-free. It is constructed via
`UniformMeshSampler::try_new`, which looks like this:
```rust
pub fn try_new<T: Into<Vec<Triangle3d>>>(triangles: T) -> Result<Self, ZeroAreaMeshError> { //... }
```
It fails if the collection of triangles has zero area.
The sum of these parts means that you can sample random points from a
mesh as follows:
```rust
let triangles = my_mesh.triangles().unwrap();
let mut rng = StdRng::seed_from_u64(8765309);
let distribution = UniformMeshSampler::try_new(triangles).unwrap();
// 10000 random points from the surface of my_mesh:
let sample_points: Vec<Vec3> = distribution.sample_iter(&mut rng).take(10000).collect();
```
## Testing
Tested by instantiating meshes and sampling as demonstrated above.
---
## Changelog
- Added `Mesh::triangles` method to get a collection of triangles from a
mesh.
- Added `UniformMeshSampler` to `bevy_math::sampling`. This is a
distribution which allows random sampling over collections of triangles
(such as those provided through meshes).
---
## Discussion
### Design decisions
The main thing here was making sure to have a good separation between
the parts of this in `bevy_render` and in `bevy_math`. Getting the
triangles from a mesh seems like a reasonable step after adding
`Triangle3d` to `bevy_math`, so I decided to make all of the random
sampling operate at that level, with the fallible conversion to
triangles doing most of the work.
Notably, the sampler could be called something else that reflects that
its input is a collection of triangles, but if/when we add other kinds
of meshes to `bevy_math` (e.g. half-edge meshes), the fact that
`try_new` takes an `impl Into<Vec<Triangle3d>>` means that those meshes
just need to satisfy that trait bound in order to work immediately with
this sampling functionality. In that case, the result would just be
something like this:
```rust
let dist = UniformMeshSampler::try_new(mesh).unwrap();
```
I think this highlights that most of the friction is really just from
extracting data from `Mesh`.
It's maybe worth mentioning also that "collection of triangles"
(`Vec<Triangle3d>`) sits downstream of any other kind of triangle mesh,
since the topology connecting the triangles has been effectively erased,
which makes an `Into<Vec<Triangle3d>>` trait bound seem all the more
natural to me.

# Objective
- Make primitive meshing behavior consisten across platforms
- Avoid using sizes bigger than `u32` since these aren't even supported
for meshes
## Solution
- Use `u32` instead of `usize` for resolution/subdivisions/segments/etc
fields
---
## Changelog
- Change resolutions in primitive mesh builders from `usize` to `u32`
## Migration Guide
- All primitive mesh builders now take `u32` instead of `usize` for
their resolution/subdivision/segment counts
# Objective
- Primitives should not use poorly defined types like `usize`,
especially since they are serializable
## Solution
- Use `u32` instead of `usize`
- The generic array types do not need to be changed because this size is
not actually stored or serialized anywhere
---
## Migration Guide
- `RegularPolygon` now uses `u32` instead of `usize` for the number of
sides
Currently blocked on https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/issues/5774
# Objective
Update to wgpu 0.20
## Solution
Update to wgpu 0.20 and naga_oil 0.14.
## Testing
Tested a few different examples on linux (vulkan, webgl2, webgpu) and
windows (dx12 + vulkan) and they worked.
---
## Changelog
- Updated to wgpu 0.20. Note that we don't currently support wgpu's new
pipeline overridable constants, as they don't work on web currently and
need some more changes to naga_oil (and are somewhat redundant with
naga_oil's shader defs). See wgpu's changelog for more

- Implemented support for segments in the meshing algorithm.
- If you set `.segments(0)`, the meshing will fail, just like it does
with cylinders.

# Objective
- Implement `Meshable` for `Extrusion<T>`
## Solution
- `Meshable` requires `Meshable::Output: MeshBuilder` now. This means
that all `some_primitive.mesh()` calls now return a `MeshBuilder`. These
were added for primitives that did not have one prior to this.
- A new trait `Extrudable: MeshBuilder` has been added. This trait
allows you to specify the indices of the perimeter of the mesh created
by this `MeshBuilder` and whether they are to be shaded smooth or flat.
- `Extrusion<P: Primitive2d + Meshable>` is now `Meshable` aswell. The
associated `MeshBuilder` is `ExtrusionMeshBuilder` which is generic over
`P` and uses the `MeshBuilder` of its baseshape internally.
- `ExtrusionMeshBuilder` exposes the configuration functions of its
base-shapes builder.
- Updated the `3d_shapes` example to include `Extrusion`s
## Migration Guide
- Depending on the context, you may need to explicitly call
`.mesh().build()` on primitives where you have previously called
`.mesh()`
- The `Output` type of custom `Meshable` implementations must now derive
`MeshBuilder`.
## Additional information
- The extrusions UVs are done so that
- the front face (`+Z`) is in the area between `(0, 0)` and `(0.5,
0.5)`,
- the back face (`-Z`) is in the area between `(0.5, 0)` and `(1, 0.5)`
- the mantle is in the area between `(0, 0.5)` and `(1, 1)`. Each
`PerimeterSegment` you specified in the `Extrudable` implementation will
be allocated an equal portion of this area.
- The UVs of the base shape are scaled to be in the front/back area so
whatever method of filling the full UV-space the base shape used is how
these areas will be filled.
Here is an example of what that looks like on a capsule:

# Objective
Add new options to some primitives, like anchoring for Cones and
cylinders and custom angle ranges for Torus.
I think these kind of options are useful, but I would understand that
these addition feel overkill
## Solution
Add
## Testing
- Did you test these changes? If so, how?
> I used the new options in the `3d_shapes` example with various
parameters and got the expected results
## Changelog
- Added `caps` bool option to toggle cylinder circle caps
- Added `angle_range` f32 range option non full torus shapes
- Added `anchor` enum option for cylinders, with either `Top`,
`Midpoint` or `Bottom`
- Added `anchor` enum option for cones, with either `Tip`, `Midpoint` or
`Base`
- **BREAKING** `TorusMeshBuilder` is no longer `Copy` due to
`RangeInclusive`, we can use a `(f32, f32)` if we want it to be `Copy`
# Objective
- Create a new 2D primitive, Rhombus, also knows as "Diamond Shape"
- Simplify the creation and handling of isometric projections
- Extend Bevy's arsenal of 2D primitives

# Objective
The `ConicalFrustum` primitive should support meshing.
## Solution
Implement meshing for the `ConicalFrustum` primitive. The implementation
is nearly identical to `Cylinder` meshing, but supports two radii.
The default conical frustum is equivalent to a cone with a height of 1
and a radius of 0.5, truncated at half-height.

# Objective
Adopted #11748
## Solution
I've rebased on main to fix the merge conflicts. ~~Not quite ready to
merge yet~~
* Clippy is happy and the tests are passing, but...
* ~~The new shapes in `examples/2d/2d_shapes.rs` don't look right at
all~~ Never mind, looks like radians and degrees just got mixed up at
some point?

# Objective
Allow the `Tetrahedron` primitive to be used for mesh generation. This
is part of ongoing work to bring unify the capabilities of `bevy_math`
primitives.
## Solution
`Tetrahedron` implements `Meshable`. Essentially, each face is just
meshed as a `Triangle3d`, but first there is an inversion step when the
signed volume of the tetrahedron is negative to ensure that the faces
all actually point outward.
## Testing
I loaded up some examples and hackily exchanged existing meshes with the
new one to see that it works as expected.
# Objective
- Fixes scaling normals and tangents of meshes
## Solution
- When scaling a mesh by `Vec3::new(1., 1., -1.)`, the normals should be
flipped along the Z-axis. For example a normal of `Vec3::new(0., 0.,
1.)` should become `Vec3::new(0., 0., -1.)` after scaling. This is
achieved by multiplying the normal by the reciprocal of the scale,
cheking for infinity and normalizing. Before, the normal was multiplied
by a covector of the scale, which is incorrect for normals.
- Tangents need to be multiplied by the `scale`, not its reciprocal as
before

# Objective
- All `ShapeMeshBuilder`s have some methods/implementations in common.
These are `fn build(&self) -> Mesh` and this implementation:
```rust
impl From<ShapeMeshBuilder> for Mesh {
fn from(builder: ShapeMeshBuilder) -> {
builder.build()
}
}
```
- For the sake of consistency, these can be moved into a shared trait
## Solution
- Add `trait MeshBuilder` containing a `fn build(&self) -> Mesh` and
implementing `MeshBuilder for ShapeMeshBuilder`
- Implement `From<T: MeshBuilder> for Mesh`
## Migration Guide
- When calling `.build()` you need to import
`bevy_render::mesh::primitives::MeshBuilder`
# Objective
- Refactor the changes merged in #11654 to compute flat normals for
indexed meshes instead of smooth normals.
- Fixes#12716
## Solution
- Partially revert the changes in #11654 to compute flat normals for
both indexed and unindexed meshes in `compute_flat_normals`
- Create a new method, `compute_smooth_normals`, that computes smooth
normals for indexed meshes
- Create a new method, `compute_normals`, that computes smooth normals
for indexed meshes and flat normals for unindexed meshes by default. Use
this new method instead of `compute_flat_normals`.
## Testing
- Run the example with and without the changes to ensure that the
results are identical.
# Objective
The `Cone` primitive should support meshing.
## Solution
Implement meshing for the `Cone` primitive. The default cone has a
height of 1 and a base radius of 0.5, and is centered at the origin.
An issue with cone meshes is that the tip does not really have a normal
that works, even with duplicated vertices. This PR uses only a single
vertex for the tip, with a normal of zero; this results in an "invalid"
normal that gets ignored by the fragment shader. This seems to be the
only approach we have for perfectly smooth cones. For discussion on the
topic, see #10298 and #5891.
Another thing to note is that the cone uses polar coordinates for the
UVs:

This way, textures are applied as if looking at the cone from above:

# Objective
allow throttling of gpu uploads to prevent choppy framerate when many
textures/meshes are loaded in.
## Solution
- `RenderAsset`s can implement `byte_len()` which reports their size.
implemented this for `Mesh` and `Image`
- users can add a `RenderAssetBytesPerFrame` which specifies max bytes
to attempt to upload in a frame
- `render_assets::<A>` checks how many bytes have been written before
attempting to upload assets. the limit is a soft cap: assets will be
written until the total has exceeded the cap, to ensure some forward
progress every frame
notes:
- this is a stopgap until we have multiple wgpu queues for proper
streaming of data
- requires #12606
issues
- ~~fonts sometimes only partially upload. i have no clue why, needs to
be fixed~~ fixed now.
- choosing the #bytes is tricky as it should be hardware / framerate
dependent
- many features are not tested (env maps, light probes, etc) - they
won't break unless `RenderAssetBytesPerFrame` is explicitly used though

# Objective
- `MeshPipelineKey` use some bits for two things
- First commit in this PR adds an assertion that doesn't work currently
on main
- This leads to some mesh topology not working anymore, for example
`LineStrip`
- With examples `lines`, there should be two groups of lines, the blue
one doesn't display currently
## Solution
- Change the `MeshPipelineKey` to be backed by a `u64` instead, to have
enough bits
# 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
-
[`clippy::ref_as_ptr`](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#/ref_as_ptr)
prevents you from directly casting references to pointers, requiring you
to use `std::ptr::from_ref` instead. This prevents you from accidentally
converting an immutable reference into a mutable pointer (`&x as *mut
T`).
- Follow up to #11818, now that our [`rust-version` is
1.77](11817f4ba4/Cargo.toml (L14)).
## Solution
- Enable lint and fix all warnings.
# 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.
# Objective
- Ongoing work for #10572
- Implement the `Meshable` trait for `Triangle3d`, allowing 3d triangle
primitives to produce meshes.
## Solution
The `Meshable` trait for `Triangle3d` directly produces a `Mesh`, much
like that of `Triangle2d`. The mesh consists only of a single triangle
(the triangle itself), and its vertex data consists of:
- Vertex positions, which are the triangle's vertices themselves (i.e.
the triangle provides its own coordinates in mesh space directly)
- Normals, which are all the normal of the triangle itself
- Indices, which are directly inferred from the vertex order (note that
this is slightly different than `Triangle2d` which, because of its lower
dimension, has an orientation which can be corrected for so that it
always faces "the right way")
- UV coordinates, which are produced as follows:
1. The first coordinate is coincident with the `ab` direction of the
triangle.
2. The second coordinate maps to be perpendicular to the first in mesh
space, so that the UV-mapping is skew-free.
3. The UV-coordinates map to the smallest rectangle possible containing
the triangle, given the preceding constraints.
Here is a visual demonstration; here, the `ab` direction of the triangle
is horizontal, left to right — the point `c` moves, expanding the
bounding rectangle of the triangle when it pushes past `a` or `b`:

The UV-mapping of `Triangle2d` has also been changed to use the same
logic.

## Changelog
- Implemented `Meshable` for `Triangle3d`.
- Changed UV-mapping of `Triangle2d` to match that of `Triangle3d`.
## Migration Guide
The UV-mapping of `Triangle2d` has changed with this PR; the main
difference is that the UVs are no longer dependent on the triangle's
absolute coordinates, but instead follow translations of the triangle
itself in its definition. If you depended on the old UV-coordinates for
`Triangle2d`, then you will have to update affected areas to use the new
ones which, briefly, can be described as follows:
- The first coordinate is parallel to the line between the first two
vertices of the triangle.
- The second coordinate is orthogonal to this, pointing in the direction
of the third point.
Generally speaking, this means that the first two points will have
coordinates `[_, 0.]`, while the third coordinate will be `[_, 1.]`,
with the exact values depending on the position of the third point
relative to the first two. For acute triangles, the first two vertices
always have UV-coordinates `[0., 0.]` and `[1., 0.]` respectively. For
obtuse triangles, the third point will have coordinate `[0., 1.]` or
`[1., 1.]`, with the coordinate of one of the two other points shifting
to maintain proportionality.
For example:
- The default `Triangle2d` has UV-coordinates `[0., 0.]`, `[0., 1.]`,
[`0.5, 1.]`.
- The triangle with vertices `vec2(0., 0.)`, `vec2(1., 0.)`, `vec2(2.,
1.)` has UV-coordinates `[0., 0.]`, `[0.5, 0.]`, `[1., 1.]`.
- The triangle with vertices `vec2(0., 0.)`, `vec2(1., 0.)`, `vec2(-2.,
1.)` has UV-coordinates `[2./3., 0.]`, `[1., 0.]`, `[0., 1.]`.
## Discussion
### Design considerations
1. There are a number of ways to UV-map a triangle (at least two of
which are fairly natural); for instance, we could instead declare the
second axis to be essentially `bc` so that the vertices are always `[0.,
0.]`, `[0., 1.]`, and `[1., 0.]`. I chose this method instead because it
is skew-free, so that the sampling from textures has only bilinear
scaling. I think this is better for cases where a relatively "uniform"
texture is mapped to the triangle, but it's possible that we might want
to support the other thing in the future. Thankfully, we already have
the capability of easily expanding to do that with Builders if the need
arises. This could also allow us to provide things like barycentric
subdivision.
2. Presently, the mesh-creation code for `Triangle3d` is set up to never
fail, even in the case that the triangle is degenerate. I have mixed
feelings about this, but none of our other primitive meshes fail, so I
decided to take the same approach. Maybe this is something that could be
worth revisiting in the future across the board.

# Objective
make morph targets and tonemapping more tolerant of delayed image
loading.
neither of these actually fail currently unless using a bespoke loader
(and even then it would be rare), but i am working on adding throttling
for asset gpu uploads (as a stopgap until we can do proper asset
streaming) and they break with that.
## Solution
when a mesh with morph targets is uploaded to the gpu, the prepare
function uploads the morph target texture if it's available, otherwise
it uploads without morph targets. this is generally fine as long as
morph targets are typically loaded from bytes (in gltf loader), but may
fail for a custom loader if the asset server async-loads the target
texture and the texture is not available yet. the mesh fails to render
and doesn't update when the image is loaded
-> if morph targets are specified but not ready yet, retry mesh upload
next frame
tonemapping `unwrap`s on the lookup table image. this is never a problem
since the image is added via `include_bytes!`, but could be a problem in
future with asset gpu throttling/streaming.
-> if the lookup texture is not yet available, use a fallback
-> in the node, check if the fallback was used before caching the bind
group
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
Related to #10572
Allow the `Annulus` primitive to be meshed.
## Solution
We introduce a `Meshable` structure, `AnnulusMeshBuilder`, which allows
the `Annulus` primitive to be meshed, leaving optional configuration of
the number of angular sudivisions to the user. Here is a picture of the
annulus's UV-mapping:

Other features are essentially identical to the implementations for
`Circle`/`Ellipse`.

## Changelog
- Introduced `AnnulusMeshBuilder`
- Implemented `Meshable` for `Annulus` with `Output =
AnnulusMeshBuilder`
- Implemented `From<Annulus>` and `From<AnnulusMeshBuilder>` for `Mesh`
- Added `impl_reflect!` declaration for `Annulus` and `Triangle3d` in
`bevy_reflect`

## Discussion
### Design considerations
The only interesting wrinkle here is that the existing UV-mapping of
`Ellipse` (and hence of `Circle` and `RegularPolygon`) is non-radial
(it's skew-free, created by situating the mesh in a bounding rectangle),
so the UV-mapping of `Annulus` doesn't limit to that of `Circle` as its
inner radius tends to zero, for instance. I don't see this as a real
issue for `Annulus`, which should almost certainly have this kind of
UV-mapping, but I think we ought to at least consider allowing mesh
configuration for `Circle`/`Ellipse` that performs radial UV-mapping
instead. (In these cases in particular, it would be especially easy,
since we wouldn't need a different parameter set in the builder.)

# 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>.`
# Objective
- Many types in bevy_render doesn't reflect Default even if it could.
## Solution
- Reflect it.

# Objective
Fixes#12480
by removing the explicit mention of equally sized triangles from the doc
for icospheres
Co-authored-by: Emi <emanuel.boehm@gmail.com>
# Objective
Make bevy_utils less of a compilation bottleneck. Tackle #11478.
## Solution
* Move all of the directly reexported dependencies and move them to
where they're actually used.
* Remove the UUID utilities that have gone unused since `TypePath` took
over for `TypeUuid`.
* There was also a extraneous bytemuck dependency on `bevy_core` that
has not been used for a long time (since `encase` became the primary way
to prepare GPU buffers).
* Remove the `all_tuples` macro reexport from bevy_ecs since it's
accessible from `bevy_utils`.
