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

# Objective
This gets Bevy building on Wasm when the `atomics` flag is enabled. This
does not yet multithread Bevy itself, but it allows Bevy users to use a
crate like `wasm_thread` to spawn their own threads and manually
parallelize work. This is a first step towards resolving #4078 . Also
fixes#9304.
This provides a foothold so that Bevy contributors can begin to think
about multithreaded Wasm's constraints and Bevy can work towards changes
to get the engine itself multithreaded.
Some flags need to be set on the Rust compiler when compiling for Wasm
multithreading. Here's what my build script looks like, with the correct
flags set, to test out Bevy examples on web:
```bash
set -e
RUSTFLAGS='-C target-feature=+atomics,+bulk-memory,+mutable-globals' \
cargo build --example breakout --target wasm32-unknown-unknown -Z build-std=std,panic_abort --release
wasm-bindgen --out-name wasm_example \
--out-dir examples/wasm/target \
--target web target/wasm32-unknown-unknown/release/examples/breakout.wasm
devserver --header Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy='same-origin' --header Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy='require-corp' --path examples/wasm
```
A few notes:
1. `cpal` crashes immediately when the `atomics` flag is set. That is
patched in https://github.com/RustAudio/cpal/pull/837, but not yet in
the latest crates.io release.
That can be temporarily worked around by patching Cpal like so:
```toml
[patch.crates-io]
cpal = { git = "https://github.com/RustAudio/cpal" }
```
2. When testing out `wasm_thread` you need to enable the `es_modules`
feature.
## Solution
The largest obstacle to compiling Bevy with `atomics` on web is that
`wgpu` types are _not_ Send and Sync. Longer term Bevy will need an
approach to handle that, but in the near term Bevy is already configured
to be single-threaded on web.
Therefor it is enough to wrap `wgpu` types in a
`send_wrapper::SendWrapper` that _is_ Send / Sync, but panics if
accessed off the `wgpu` thread.
---
## Changelog
- `wgpu` types that are not `Send` are wrapped in
`send_wrapper::SendWrapper` on Wasm + 'atomics'
- CommandBuffers are not generated in parallel on Wasm + 'atomics'
## Questions
- Bevy should probably add CI checks to make sure this doesn't regress.
Should that go in this PR or a separate PR? **Edit:** Added checks to
build Wasm with atomics

# Objective
It's useful to have access to render pipeline statistics, since they
provide more information than FPS alone. For example, the number of
drawn triangles can be used to debug culling and LODs. The number of
fragment shader invocations can provide a more stable alternative metric
than GPU elapsed time.
See also: Render node GPU timing overlay #8067, which doesn't provide
pipeline statistics, but adds a nice overlay.
## Solution
Add `RenderDiagnosticsPlugin`, which enables collecting pipeline
statistics and CPU & GPU timings.
---
## Changelog
- Add `RenderDiagnosticsPlugin`
- Add `RenderContext::diagnostic_recorder` method

# Objective
- Encoding many GPU commands (such as in a renderpass with many draws,
such as the main opaque pass) onto a `wgpu::CommandEncoder` is very
expensive, and takes a long time.
- To improve performance, we want to perform the command encoding for
these heavy passes in parallel.
## Solution
- `RenderContext` can now queue up "command buffer generation tasks"
which are closures that will generate a command buffer when called.
- When finalizing the render context to produce the final list of
command buffers, these tasks are run in parallel on the
`ComputeTaskPool` to produce their corresponding command buffers.
- The general idea is that the node graph will run in serial, but in a
node, instead of doing rendering work, you can add tasks to do render
work in parallel with other node's tasks that get ran at the end of the
graph execution.
## Nodes Parallelized
- `MainOpaquePass3dNode`
- `PrepassNode`
- `DeferredGBufferPrepassNode`
- `ShadowPassNode` (One task per view)
## Future Work
- For large number of draws calls, might be worth further subdividing
passes into 2+ tasks.
- Extend this to UI, 2d, transparent, and transmissive nodes?
- Needs testing - small command buffers are inefficient - it may be
worth reverting to the serial command encoder usage for render phases
with few items.
- All "serial" (traditional) rendering work must finish before parallel
rendering tasks (the new stuff) can start to run.
- There is still only one submission to the graphics queue at the end of
the graph execution. There is still no ability to submit work earlier.
## Performance Improvement
Thanks to @Elabajaba for testing on Bistro.

TLDR: Without shadow mapping, this PR has no impact. _With_ shadow
mapping, this PR gives **~40 more fps** than main.
---
## Changelog
- `MainOpaquePass3dNode`, `PrepassNode`, `DeferredGBufferPrepassNode`,
and each shadow map within `ShadowPassNode` are now encoded in parallel,
giving _greatly_ increased CPU performance, mainly when shadow mapping
is enabled.
- Does not work on WASM or AMD+Windows+Vulkan.
- Added `RenderContext::add_command_buffer_generation_task()`.
- `RenderContext::new()` now takes adapter info
- Some render graph and Node related types and methods now have
additional lifetime constraints.

# Objective
While profiling around to validate the results of #9172, I noticed that
`present_frames` can take a significant amount of time. Digging into the
cause, it seems like we're creating a new `QueryState` from scratch
every frame. This involves scanning the entire World's metadata instead
of just updating its view of the world.
## Solution
Use a `SystemState` argument to cache the `QueryState` to avoid this
construction cost.
## Performance
Against `many_foxes`, this seems to cut the time spent in
`present_frames` by nearly almost 2x. Yellow is this PR, red is main.

# Objective
Keep core dependencies up to date.
## Solution
Update the dependencies.
wgpu 0.19 only supports raw-window-handle (rwh) 0.6, so bumping that was
included in this.
The rwh 0.6 version bump is just the simplest way of doing it. There
might be a way we can take advantage of wgpu's new safe surface creation
api, but I'm not familiar enough with bevy's window management to
untangle it and my attempt ended up being a mess of lifetimes and rustc
complaining about missing trait impls (that were implemented). Thanks to
@MiniaczQ for the (much simpler) rwh 0.6 version bump code.
Unblocks https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/9172 and
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10812
~~This might be blocked on cpal and oboe updating their ndk versions to
0.8, as they both currently target ndk 0.7 which uses rwh 0.5.2~~ Tested
on android, and everything seems to work correctly (audio properly stops
when minimized, and plays when re-focusing the app).
---
## Changelog
- `wgpu` has been updated to 0.19! The long awaited arcanization has
been merged (for more info, see
https://gfx-rs.github.io/2023/11/24/arcanization.html), and Vulkan
should now be working again on Intel GPUs.
- Targeting WebGPU now requires that you add the new `webgpu` feature
(setting the `RUSTFLAGS` environment variable to
`--cfg=web_sys_unstable_apis` is still required). This feature currently
overrides the `webgl2` feature if you have both enabled (the `webgl2`
feature is enabled by default), so it is not recommended to add it as a
default feature to libraries without putting it behind a flag that
allows library users to opt out of it! In the future we plan on
supporting wasm binaries that can target both webgl2 and webgpu now that
wgpu added support for doing so (see
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/11505).
- `raw-window-handle` has been updated to version 0.6.
## Migration Guide
- `bevy_render::instance_index::get_instance_index()` has been removed
as the webgl2 workaround is no longer required as it was fixed upstream
in wgpu. The `BASE_INSTANCE_WORKAROUND` shaderdef has also been removed.
- WebGPU now requires the new `webgpu` feature to be enabled. The
`webgpu` feature currently overrides the `webgl2` feature so you no
longer need to disable all default features and re-add them all when
targeting `webgpu`, but binaries built with both the `webgpu` and
`webgl2` features will only target the webgpu backend, and will only
work on browsers that support WebGPU.
- Places where you conditionally compiled things for webgl2 need to be
updated because of this change, eg:
- `#[cfg(any(not(feature = "webgl"), not(target_arch = "wasm32")))]`
becomes `#[cfg(any(not(feature = "webgl") ,not(target_arch = "wasm32"),
feature = "webgpu"))]`
- `#[cfg(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32"))]` becomes
`#[cfg(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32", not(feature =
"webgpu")))]`
- `if cfg!(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32"))` becomes `if
cfg!(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32", not(feature =
"webgpu")))`
- `create_texture_with_data` now also takes a `TextureDataOrder`. You
can probably just set this to `TextureDataOrder::default()`
- `TextureFormat`'s `block_size` has been renamed to `block_copy_size`
- See the `wgpu` changelog for anything I might've missed:

# Objective
- Since #10702, the way bevy updates the window leads to major slowdowns
as seen in
- #11122
- #11220
- Slow is bad, furthermore, _very_ slow is _very_ bad. We should fix
this issue.
## Solution
- Move the app update code into the `Event::WindowEvent { event:
WindowEvent::RedrawRequested }` branch of the event loop.
- Run `window.request_redraw()` When `runner_state.redraw_requested`
- Instead of swapping `ControlFlow` between `Poll` and `Wait`, we always
keep it at `Wait`, and use `window.request_redraw()` to schedule an
immediate call to the event loop.
- `runner_state.redraw_requested` is set to `true` when
`UpdateMode::Continuous` and when a `RequestRedraw` event is received.
- Extract the redraw code into a separate function, because otherwise
I'd go crazy with the indentation level.
- Fix#11122.
## Testing
I tested the WASM builds as follow:
```sh
cargo run -p build-wasm-example -- --api webgl2 bevymark
python -m http.server --directory examples/wasm/ 8080
# Open browser at http://localhost:8080
```
On main, even spawning a couple sprites is super choppy. Even if it says
"300 FPS". While on this branch, it is smooth as butter.
I also found that it fixes all choppiness on window resize (tested on
Linux/X11). This was another issue from #10702 IIRC.
So here is what I tested:
- On `wasm`: `many_foxes` and `bevymark`, with `argh::from_env()`
commented out, otherwise we get a cryptic error.
- Both with `PresentMode::AutoVsync` and `PresentMode::AutoNoVsync`
- On main, it is consistently choppy.
- With this PR, the visible frame rate is consistent with the diagnostic
numbers
- On native (linux/x11) I ran similar tests, making sure that
`AutoVsync` limits to monitor framerate, and `AutoNoVsync` doesn't.
## Future work
Code could be improved, I wanted a quick solution easy to review, but we
really need to make the code more accessible.
- #9768
- ~~**`WinitSettings::desktop_app()` is completely borked.**~~ actually
broken on main as well
### Review guide
Consider enable the non-whitespace diff to see the _real_ change set.
# Objective
Keep up to date with wgpu.
## Solution
Update the wgpu version.
Currently blocked on naga_oil updating to naga 0.14 and releasing a new
version.
3d scenes (or maybe any scene with lighting?) currently don't render
anything due to
```
error: naga_oil bug, please file a report: composer failed to build a valid header: Type [2] '' is invalid
= Capability Capabilities(CUBE_ARRAY_TEXTURES) is required
```
I'm not sure what should be passed in for `wgpu::InstanceFlags`, or if we want to make the gles3minorversion configurable (might be useful for debugging?)
Currently blocked on https://github.com/bevyengine/naga_oil/pull/63, and https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/issues/4569 to be fixed upstream in wgpu first.
## Known issues
Amd+windows+vulkan has issues with texture_binding_arrays (see the image [here](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10266#issuecomment-1819946278)), but that'll be fixed in the next wgpu/naga version, and you can just use dx12 as a workaround for now (Amd+linux mesa+vulkan texture_binding_arrays are fixed though).
---
## Changelog
Updated wgpu to 0.18, naga to 0.14.2, and naga_oil to 0.11.
- Windows desktop GL should now be less painful as it no longer requires Angle.
- You can now toggle shader validation and debug information for debug and release builds using `WgpuSettings.instance_flags` and [InstanceFlags](https://docs.rs/wgpu/0.18.0/wgpu/struct.InstanceFlags.html)
## Migration Guide
- `RenderPassDescriptor` `color_attachments` (as well as `RenderPassColorAttachment`, and `RenderPassDepthStencilAttachment`) now use `StoreOp::Store` or `StoreOp::Discard` instead of a `boolean` to declare whether or not they should be stored.
- `RenderPassDescriptor` now have `timestamp_writes` and `occlusion_query_set` fields. These can safely be set to `None`.
- `ComputePassDescriptor` now have a `timestamp_writes` field. This can be set to `None` for now.
- See the [wgpu changelog](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/blob/trunk/CHANGELOG.md#v0180-2023-10-25) for additional details
# Objective
- Shorten paths by removing unnecessary prefixes
## Solution
- Remove the prefixes from many paths which do not need them. Finding
the paths was done automatically using built-in refactoring tools in
Jetbrains RustRover.
# Objective
- sometimes when bevy shuts down on certain machines the render thread
tries to send the time after the main world has been dropped.
- fixes an error mentioned in a reply in
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/9543
---
## Changelog
- ignore disconnected errors from the time channel.
This is a duplicate of #9632, it was created since I forgot to make a
new branch when I first made this PR, so I was having trouble resolving
merge conflicts, meaning I had to rebuild my PR.
# Objective
- Allow other plugins to create the renderer resources. An example of
where this would be required is my [OpenXR
plugin](https://github.com/awtterpip/bevy_openxr)
## Solution
- Changed the bevy RenderPlugin to optionally take precreated render
resources instead of a configuration.
## Migration Guide
The `RenderPlugin` now takes a `RenderCreation` enum instead of
`WgpuSettings`. `RenderSettings::default()` returns
`RenderSettings::Automatic(WgpuSettings::default())`. `RenderSettings`
also implements `From<WgpuSettings>`.
```rust
// before
RenderPlugin {
wgpu_settings: WgpuSettings {
...
},
}
// now
RenderPlugin {
render_creation: RenderCreation::Automatic(WgpuSettings {
...
}),
}
// or
RenderPlugin {
render_creation: WgpuSettings {
...
}.into(),
}
```

Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/1207
# Objective
Right now, it's impossible to capture a screenshot of the entire window
without forking bevy. This is because
- The swapchain texture never has the COPY_SRC usage
- It can't be accessed without taking ownership of it
- Taking ownership of it breaks *a lot* of stuff
## Solution
- Introduce a dedicated api for taking a screenshot of a given bevy
window, and guarantee this screenshot will always match up with what
gets put on the screen.
---
## Changelog
- Added the `ScreenshotManager` resource with two functions,
`take_screenshot` and `save_screenshot_to_disk`
# Objective
Update Bevy to wgpu 0.15.
## Changelog
- Update to wgpu 0.15, wgpu-hal 0.15.1, and naga 0.11
- Users can now use the [DirectX Shader Compiler](https://github.com/microsoft/DirectXShaderCompiler) (DXC) on Windows with DX12 for faster shader compilation and ShaderModel 6.0+ support (requires `dxcompiler.dll` and `dxil.dll`, which are included in DXC downloads from [here](https://github.com/microsoft/DirectXShaderCompiler/releases/latest))
## Migration Guide
### WGSL Top-Level `let` is now `const`
All top level constants are now declared with `const`, catching up with the wgsl spec.
`let` is no longer allowed at the global scope, only within functions.
```diff
-let SOME_CONSTANT = 12.0;
+const SOME_CONSTANT = 12.0;
```
#### `TextureDescriptor` and `SurfaceConfiguration` now requires a `view_formats` field
The new `view_formats` field in the `TextureDescriptor` is used to specify a list of formats the texture can be re-interpreted to in a texture view. Currently only changing srgb-ness is allowed (ex. `Rgba8Unorm` <=> `Rgba8UnormSrgb`). You should set `view_formats` to `&[]` (empty) unless you have a specific reason not to.
#### The DirectX Shader Compiler (DXC) is now supported on DX12
DXC is now the default shader compiler when using the DX12 backend. DXC is Microsoft's replacement for their legacy FXC compiler, and is faster, less buggy, and allows for modern shader features to be used (ShaderModel 6.0+). DXC requires `dxcompiler.dll` and `dxil.dll` to be available, otherwise it will log a warning and fall back to FXC.
You can get `dxcompiler.dll` and `dxil.dll` by downloading the latest release from [Microsoft's DirectXShaderCompiler github repo](https://github.com/microsoft/DirectXShaderCompiler/releases/latest) and copying them into your project's root directory. These must be included when you distribute your Bevy game/app/etc if you plan on supporting the DX12 backend and are using DXC.
`WgpuSettings` now has a `dx12_shader_compiler` field which can be used to choose between either FXC or DXC (if you pass None for the paths for DXC, it will check for the .dlls in the working directory).
# Objective
`RenderContext`, the core abstraction for running the render graph, currently only supports recording one `CommandBuffer` across the entire render graph. This means the entire buffer must be recorded sequentially, usually via the render graph itself. This prevents parallelization and forces users to only encode their commands in the render graph.
## Solution
Allow `RenderContext` to store a `Vec<CommandBuffer>` that it progressively appends to. By default, the context will not have a command encoder, but will create one as soon as either `begin_tracked_render_pass` or the `command_encoder` accesor is first called. `RenderContext::add_command_buffer` allows users to interrupt the current command encoder, flush it to the vec, append a user-provided `CommandBuffer` and reset the command encoder to start a new buffer. Users or the render graph will call `RenderContext::finish` to retrieve the series of buffers for submitting to the queue.
This allows users to encode their own `CommandBuffer`s outside of the render graph, potentially in different threads, and store them in components or resources.
Ideally, in the future, the core pipeline passes can run in `RenderStage::Render` systems and end up saving the completed command buffers to either `Commands` or a field in `RenderPhase`.
## Alternatives
The alternative is to use to use wgpu's `RenderBundle`s, which can achieve similar results; however it's not universally available (no OpenGL, WebGL, and DX11).
---
## Changelog
Added: `RenderContext::new`
Added: `RenderContext::add_command_buffer`
Added: `RenderContext::finish`
Changed: `RenderContext::render_device` is now private. Use the accessor `RenderContext::render_device()` instead.
Changed: `RenderContext::command_encoder` is now private. Use the accessor `RenderContext::command_encoder()` instead.
Changed: `RenderContext` now supports adding external `CommandBuffer`s for inclusion into the render graphs. These buffers can be encoded outside of the render graph (i.e. in a system).
## Migration Guide
`RenderContext`'s fields are now private. Use the accessors on `RenderContext` instead, and construct it with `RenderContext::new`.
# Objective
Speed up the render phase for rendering.
## Solution
- Follow up #6988 and make the internals of atomic IDs `NonZeroU32`. This niches the `Option`s of the IDs in draw state, which reduces the size and branching behavior when evaluating for equality.
- Require `&RenderDevice` to get the device's `Limits` when initializing a `TrackedRenderPass` to preallocate the bind groups and vertex buffer state in `DrawState`, this removes the branch on needing to resize those `Vec`s.
## Performance
This produces a similar speed up akin to that of #6885. This shows an approximate 6% speed up in `main_opaque_pass_3d` on `many_foxes` (408.79 us -> 388us). This should be orthogonal to the gains seen there.

---
## Changelog
Added: `RenderContext::begin_tracked_render_pass`.
Changed: `TrackedRenderPass` now requires a `&RenderDevice` on construction.
Removed: `bevy_render::render_phase::DrawState`. It was not usable in any form outside of `bevy_render`.
## Migration Guide
TODO
# Objective
`TEXTURE_ADAPTER_SPECIFIC_FORMAT_FEATURES` was already included in `adapter.features()` on non-wasm target, and since it is the default value for `WgpuSettings.features`, the subsequent code will also combine into this feature:
b6066c30b6/crates/bevy_render/src/renderer/mod.rs (L155-L156)
# Objective
- fix new clippy lints before they get stable and break CI
## Solution
- run `clippy --fix` to auto-fix machine-applicable lints
- silence `clippy::should_implement_trait` for `fn HandleId::default<T: Asset>`
## Changes
- always prefer `format!("{inline}")` over `format!("{}", not_inline)`
- prefer `Box::default` (or `Box::<T>::default` if necessary) over `Box::new(T::default())`
# Objective
Currently, Bevy only supports rendering to the current "surface texture format". This means that "render to texture" scenarios must use the exact format the primary window's surface uses, or Bevy will crash. This is even harder than it used to be now that we detect preferred surface formats at runtime instead of using hard coded BevyDefault values.
## Solution
1. Look up and store each window surface's texture format alongside other extracted window information
2. Specialize the upscaling pass on the current `RenderTarget`'s texture format, now that we can cheaply correlate render targets to their current texture format
3. Remove the old `SurfaceTextureFormat` and `AvailableTextureFormats`: these are now redundant with the information stored on each extracted window, and probably should not have been globals in the first place (as in theory each surface could have a different format).
This means you can now use any texture format you want when rendering to a texture! For example, changing the `render_to_texture` example to use `R16Float` now doesn't crash / properly only stores the red component:

Attempt to make features like bloom https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/2876 easier to implement.
**This PR:**
- Moves the tonemapping from `pbr.wgsl` into a separate pass
- also add a separate upscaling pass after the tonemapping which writes to the swap chain (enables resolution-independant rendering and post-processing after tonemapping)
- adds a `hdr` bool to the camera which controls whether the pbr and sprite shaders render into a `Rgba16Float` texture
**Open questions:**
- ~should the 2d graph work the same as the 3d one?~ it is the same now
- ~The current solution is a bit inflexible because while you can add a post processing pass that writes to e.g. the `hdr_texture`, you can't write to a separate `user_postprocess_texture` while reading the `hdr_texture` and tell the tone mapping pass to read from the `user_postprocess_texture` instead. If the tonemapping and upscaling render graph nodes were to take in a `TextureView` instead of the view entity this would almost work, but the bind groups for their respective input textures are already created in the `Queue` render stage in the hardcoded order.~ solved by creating bind groups in render node

As suggested in #6104, it would be nice to link directly to `linux_dependencies.md` file in the panic message when running on Linux. And when not compiling for Linux, we fall back to the old message.
Signed-off-by: Lena Milizé <me@lvmn.org>
# Objective
Resolves#6104.
## Solution
Add link to `linux_dependencies.md` when compiling for Linux, and fall back to the old one when not.
# Objective
There is no Srgb support on some GPU and display protocols with `winit` (for example, Nvidia's GPUs with Wayland). Thus `TextureFormat::bevy_default()` which returns `Rgba8UnormSrgb` or `Bgra8UnormSrgb` will cause panics on such platforms. This patch will resolve this problem. Fix https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/3897.
## Solution
Make `initialize_renderer` expose `wgpu::Adapter` and `first_available_texture_format`, use the `first_available_texture_format` by default.
## Changelog
* Fixed https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/3897.
*This PR description is an edited copy of #5007, written by @alice-i-cecile.*
# Objective
Follow-up to https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/2254. The `Resource` trait currently has a blanket implementation for all types that meet its bounds.
While ergonomic, this results in several drawbacks:
* it is possible to make confusing, silent mistakes such as inserting a function pointer (Foo) rather than a value (Foo::Bar) as a resource
* it is challenging to discover if a type is intended to be used as a resource
* we cannot later add customization options (see the [RFC](https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/blob/main/rfcs/27-derive-component.md) for the equivalent choice for Component).
* dependencies can use the same Rust type as a resource in invisibly conflicting ways
* raw Rust types used as resources cannot preserve privacy appropriately, as anyone able to access that type can read and write to internal values
* we cannot capture a definitive list of possible resources to display to users in an editor
## Notes to reviewers
* Review this commit-by-commit; there's effectively no back-tracking and there's a lot of churn in some of these commits.
*ira: My commits are not as well organized :')*
* I've relaxed the bound on Local to Send + Sync + 'static: I don't think these concerns apply there, so this can keep things simple. Storing e.g. a u32 in a Local is fine, because there's a variable name attached explaining what it does.
* I think this is a bad place for the Resource trait to live, but I've left it in place to make reviewing easier. IMO that's best tackled with https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/4981.
## Changelog
`Resource` is no longer automatically implemented for all matching types. Instead, use the new `#[derive(Resource)]` macro.
## Migration Guide
Add `#[derive(Resource)]` to all types you are using as a resource.
If you are using a third party type as a resource, wrap it in a tuple struct to bypass orphan rules. Consider deriving `Deref` and `DerefMut` to improve ergonomics.
`ClearColor` no longer implements `Component`. Using `ClearColor` as a component in 0.8 did nothing.
Use the `ClearColorConfig` in the `Camera3d` and `Camera2d` components instead.

# Objective
- The time update is currently done in the wrong part of the schedule. For a single frame the current order of things is update input, update time (First stage), other stages, render stage (frame presentation). So when we update the time it includes the input processing of the current frame and the frame presentation of the previous frame. This is a problem when vsync is on. When input processing takes a longer amount of time for a frame, the vsync wait time gets shorter. So when these are not paired correctly we can potentially have a long input processing time added to the normal vsync wait time in the previous frame. This leads to inaccurate frame time reporting and more variance of the time than actually exists. For more details of why this is an issue see the linked issue below.
- Helps with https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/4669
- Supercedes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/4728 and https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/4735. This PR should be less controversial than those because it doesn't add to the API surface.
## Solution
- The most accurate frame time would come from hardware. We currently don't have access to that for multiple reasons, so the next best thing we can do is measure the frame time as close to frame presentation as possible. This PR gets the Instant::now() for the time immediately after frame presentation in the render system and then sends that time to the app world through a channel.
- implements suggestion from @aevyrie from here https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/4728#discussion_r872010606
## Statistics

---
## Changelog
- Make frame time reporting more accurate.
## Migration Guide
`time.delta()` now reports zero for 2 frames on startup instead of 1 frame.
# Objective
The frame marker event was emitted in the loop of presenting all the windows. This would mark the frame as finished multiple times if more than one window is used.
## Solution
Move the frame marker to after the `for`-loop, so that it gets executed only once.
Currently `tracy` interprets the entire trace as one frame because the marker for frames isn't being recorded.
~~When an event with `tracy.trace_marker=true` is recorded, `tracing-tracy` will mark the frame as finished:
<aa0b96b2ae/tracing-tracy/src/lib.rs (L240)>~~
~~Unfortunately this leads to~~
```rs
INFO bevy_app:frame: bevy_app::app: finished frame tracy.frame_mark=true
```
~~being printed every frame (we can't use DEBUG because bevy_log sets `max_release_level_info`.~~
Instead of emitting an event that gets logged every frame, we can depend on tracy-client itself and call `finish_continuous_frame!();`
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.

# Objective
Currently, errors in the render graph runner are exposed via a `Result::unwrap()` panic message, which dumps the debug representation of the error.
## Solution
This PR updates `render_system` to log the chain of errors, followed by an explicit panic:
```
ERROR bevy_render::renderer: Error running render graph:
ERROR bevy_render::renderer: > encountered an error when running a sub-graph
ERROR bevy_render::renderer: > tried to pass inputs to sub-graph "outline_graph", which has no input slots
thread 'main' panicked at 'Error running render graph: encountered an error when running a sub-graph', /[redacted]/bevy/crates/bevy_render/src/renderer/mod.rs:44:9
```
Some errors' `Display` impls (via `thiserror`) have also been updated to provide more detail about the cause of the error.
# Objective
- In the large majority of cases, users were calling `.unwrap()` immediately after `.get_resource`.
- Attempting to add more helpful error messages here resulted in endless manual boilerplate (see #3899 and the linked PRs).
## Solution
- Add an infallible variant named `.resource` and so on.
- Use these infallible variants over `.get_resource().unwrap()` across the code base.
## Notes
I did not provide equivalent methods on `WorldCell`, in favor of removing it entirely in #3939.
## Migration Guide
Infallible variants of `.get_resource` have been added that implicitly panic, rather than needing to be unwrapped.
Replace `world.get_resource::<Foo>().unwrap()` with `world.resource::<Foo>()`.
## Impact
- `.unwrap` search results before: 1084
- `.unwrap` search results after: 942
- internal `unwrap_or_else` calls added: 4
- trivial unwrap calls removed from tests and code: 146
- uses of the new `try_get_resource` API: 11
- percentage of the time the unwrapping API was used internally: 93%
# Objective
- `WgpuOptions` is mutated to be updated with the actual device limits and features, but this information is readily available to both the main and render worlds through the `RenderDevice` which has .limits() and .features() methods
- Information about the adapter in terms of its name, the backend in use, etc were not being exposed but have clear use cases for being used to take decisions about what rendering code to use. For example, if something works well on AMD GPUs but poorly on Intel GPUs. Or perhaps something works well in Vulkan but poorly in DX12.
## Solution
- Stop mutating `WgpuOptions `and don't insert the updated values into the main and render worlds
- Return `AdapterInfo` from `initialize_renderer` and insert it into the main and render worlds
- Use `RenderDevice` limits in the lighting code that was using `WgpuOptions.limits`.
- Renamed `WgpuOptions` to `WgpuSettings`
# Objective
- Support overriding wgpu features and limits that were calculated from default values or queried from the adapter/backend.
- Fixes#3686
## Solution
- Add `disabled_features: Option<wgpu::Features>` to `WgpuOptions`
- Add `constrained_limits: Option<wgpu::Limits>` to `WgpuOptions`
- After maybe obtaining updated features and limits from the adapter/backend in the case of `WgpuOptionsPriority::Functionality`, enable the `WgpuOptions` `features`, disable the `disabled_features`, and constrain the `limits` by `constrained_limits`.
- Note that constraining the limits means for `wgpu::Limits` members named `max_.*` we take the minimum of that which was configured/queried for the backend/adapter and the specified constrained limit value. This means the configured/queried value is used if the constrained limit is larger as that is as much as the device/API supports, or the constrained limit value is used if it is smaller as we are imposing an artificial constraint. For members named `min_.*` we take the maximum instead. For example, a minimum stride might be 256 but we set constrained limit value of 1024, then 1024 is the more conservative value. If the constrained limit value were 16, then 256 would be the more conservative.
# Objective
- While it is not safe to enable mappable primary buffers for all GPUs, it should be preferred for integrated GPUs where an integrated GPU is one that is sharing system memory.
## Solution
- Auto-disable mappable primary buffers only for discrete GPUs. If the GPU is integrated and mappable primary buffers are supported, use them.
# Objective
- When using `WgpuOptionsPriority::Functionality`, which is the default, wgpu::Features::MAPPABLE_PRIMARY_BUFFERS would be automatically enabled. This feature can and does have a significant negative impact on performance for discrete GPUs where resizable bar is not supported, which is a common case. As such, this feature should not be automatically enabled.
- Fixes the performance regression part of https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/3686 and at least some, if not all cases of https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/3687
## Solution
- When using `WgpuOptionsPriority::Functionality`, use the adapter-supported features, enable `TEXTURE_ADAPTER_SPECIFIC_FORMAT_FEATURES` and disable `MAPPABLE_PRIMARY_BUFFERS`
# Objective
- Allow the user to specify the priority when configuring wgpu features/limits and by default use the maximum capabilities of the chosen adapter.
## Solution
- Add a `WgpuOptionsPriority` enum with `Compatibility`, `Functionality` and `WebGL2` options.
- Add a `priority: WgpuOptionsPriority` member to `WgpuOptions`.
- When initialising the renderer, if `WgpuOptions::priority == WgpuOptionsPriority::Functionality`, query the adapter for the available features and limits, use them when creating a device, and update `WgpuOptions` with those values. If `Compatibility` use the behaviour as before this PR. If `WebGL2` then use the WebGL2 downlevel limits as used when when building for wasm, for convenience of testing WebGL2 limits without having to build for wasm.
- Add an environment variable `WGPU_OPTIONS_PRIO` that takes `compatibility`, `functionality`, `webgl2`.
- Default to `WgpuOptionsPriority::Functionality`.
- Insert updated `WgpuOptions` into render app world as well. This is useful for applying the limits when rendering, such as limiting the directional light shadow map texture to 2048x2048 when using WebGL2 downlevel limits but not on wasm.
- Reduced `draw_state` logs from `debug` to `trace` and added `debug` level logs for the wgpu features and limits. Use `RUST_LOG=bevy_render=debug` to see the output.
# Objective
- 3d examples fail to run in webgl2 because of unsupported texture formats or texture too large
## Solution
- switch to supported formats if a feature is enabled. I choose a feature instead of a build target to not conflict with a potential webgpu support
Very inspired by 6813b2edc5, and need #3290 to work.
I named the feature `webgl2`, but it's only needed if one want to use PBR in webgl2. Examples using only 2D already work.

This makes the [New Bevy Renderer](#2535) the default (and only) renderer. The new renderer isn't _quite_ ready for the final release yet, but I want as many people as possible to start testing it so we can identify bugs and address feedback prior to release.
The examples are all ported over and operational with a few exceptions:
* I removed a good portion of the examples in the `shader` folder. We still have some work to do in order to make these examples possible / ergonomic / worthwhile: #3120 and "high level shader material plugins" are the big ones. This is a temporary measure.
* Temporarily removed the multiple_windows example: doing this properly in the new renderer will require the upcoming "render targets" changes. Same goes for the render_to_texture example.
* Removed z_sort_debug: entity visibility sort info is no longer available in app logic. we could do this on the "render app" side, but i dont consider it a priority.
