Update glam version requirement from 0.25 to 0.27 (#12757)
# Objective - Update glam version requirement to latest version. ## Solution - Updated `glam` version requirement from 0.25 to 0.27. - Updated `encase` and `encase_derive_impl` version requirement from 0.7 to 0.8. - Updated `hexasphere` version requirement from 10.0 to 12.0. - Breaking changes from glam changelog: - [0.26.0] Minimum Supported Rust Version bumped to 1.68.2 for impl From<bool> for {f32,f64} support. - [0.27.0] Changed implementation of vector fract method to match the Rust implementation instead of the GLSL implementation, that is self - self.trunc() instead of self - self.floor(). --- ## Migration Guide - When using `glam` exports, keep in mind that `vector` `fract()` method now matches Rust implementation (that is `self - self.trunc()` instead of `self - self.floor()`). If you want to use the GLSL implementation you should now use `fract_gl()`. --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> |

Implement GPU frustum culling. (#12889)
This commit implements opt-in GPU frustum culling, built on top of the infrastructure in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/12773. To enable it on a camera, add the `GpuCulling` component to it. To additionally disable CPU frustum culling, add the `NoCpuCulling` component. Note that adding `GpuCulling` without `NoCpuCulling` *currently* does nothing useful. The reason why `GpuCulling` doesn't automatically imply `NoCpuCulling` is that I intend to follow this patch up with GPU two-phase occlusion culling, and CPU frustum culling plus GPU occlusion culling seems like a very commonly-desired mode. Adding the `GpuCulling` component to a view puts that view into *indirect mode*. This mode makes all drawcalls indirect, relying on the mesh preprocessing shader to allocate instances dynamically. In indirect mode, the `PreprocessWorkItem` `output_index` points not to a `MeshUniform` instance slot but instead to a set of `wgpu` `IndirectParameters`, from which it allocates an instance slot dynamically if frustum culling succeeds. Batch building has been updated to allocate and track indirect parameter slots, and the AABBs are now supplied to the GPU as `MeshCullingData`. A small amount of code relating to the frustum culling has been borrowed from meshlets and moved into `maths.wgsl`. Note that standard Bevy frustum culling uses AABBs, while meshlets use bounding spheres; this means that not as much code can be shared as one might think. This patch doesn't provide any way to perform GPU culling on shadow maps, to avoid making this patch bigger than it already is. That can be a followup. ## Changelog ### Added * Frustum culling can now optionally be done on the GPU. To enable it, add the `GpuCulling` component to a camera. * To disable CPU frustum culling, add `NoCpuCulling` to a camera. Note that `GpuCulling` doesn't automatically imply `NoCpuCulling`. |

Per-Object Motion Blur (#9924)
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/2632925/e046205e-3317-47c3-9959-fc94c529f7e0 # Objective - Adds per-object motion blur to the core 3d pipeline. This is a common effect used in games and other simulations. - Partially resolves #4710 ## Solution - This is a post-process effect that uses the depth and motion vector buffers to estimate per-object motion blur. The implementation is combined from knowledge from multiple papers and articles. The approach itself, and the shader are quite simple. Most of the effort was in wiring up the bevy rendering plumbing, and properly specializing for HDR and MSAA. - To work with MSAA, the MULTISAMPLED_SHADING wgpu capability is required. I've extracted this code from #9000. This is because the prepass buffers are multisampled, and require accessing with `textureLoad` as opposed to the widely compatible `textureSample`. - Added an example to demonstrate the effect of motion blur parameters. ## Future Improvements - While this approach does have limitations, it's one of the most commonly used, and is much better than camera motion blur, which does not consider object velocity. For example, this implementation allows a dolly to track an object, and that object will remain unblurred while the background is blurred. The biggest issue with this implementation is that blur is constrained to the boundaries of objects which results in hard edges. There are solutions to this by either dilating the object or the motion vector buffer, or by taking a different approach such as https://casual-effects.com/research/McGuire2012Blur/index.html - I'm using a noise PRNG function to jitter samples. This could be replaced with a blue noise texture lookup or similar, however after playing with the parameters, it gives quite nice results with 4 samples, and is significantly better than the artifacts generated when not jittering. --- ## Changelog - Added: per-object motion blur. This can be enabled and configured by adding the `MotionBlurBundle` to a camera entity. --------- Co-authored-by: Torstein Grindvik <52322338+torsteingrindvik@users.noreply.github.com> |

Generate MeshUniform s on the GPU via compute shader where available. (#12773)
Currently, `MeshUniform`s are rather large: 160 bytes. They're also somewhat expensive to compute, because they involve taking the inverse of a 3x4 matrix. Finally, if a mesh is present in multiple views, that mesh will have a separate `MeshUniform` for each and every view, which is wasteful. This commit fixes these issues by introducing the concept of a *mesh input uniform* and adding a *mesh uniform building* compute shader pass. The `MeshInputUniform` is simply the minimum amount of data needed for the GPU to compute the full `MeshUniform`. Most of this data is just the transform and is therefore only 64 bytes. `MeshInputUniform`s are computed during the *extraction* phase, much like skins are today, in order to avoid needlessly copying transforms around on CPU. (In fact, the render app has been changed to only store the translation of each mesh; it no longer cares about any other part of the transform, which is stored only on the GPU and the main world.) Before rendering, the `build_mesh_uniforms` pass runs to expand the `MeshInputUniform`s to the full `MeshUniform`. The mesh uniform building pass does the following, all on GPU: 1. Copy the appropriate fields of the `MeshInputUniform` to the `MeshUniform` slot. If a single mesh is present in multiple views, this effectively duplicates it into each view. 2. Compute the inverse transpose of the model transform, used for transforming normals. 3. If applicable, copy the mesh's transform from the previous frame for TAA. To support this, we double-buffer the `MeshInputUniform`s over two frames and swap the buffers each frame. The `MeshInputUniform`s for the current frame contain the index of that mesh's `MeshInputUniform` for the previous frame. This commit produces wins in virtually every CPU part of the pipeline: `extract_meshes`, `queue_material_meshes`, `batch_and_prepare_render_phase`, and especially `write_batched_instance_buffer` are all faster. Shrinking the amount of CPU data that has to be shuffled around speeds up the entire rendering process. | Benchmark | This branch | `main` | Speedup | |------------------------|-------------|---------|---------| | `many_cubes -nfc` | 17.259 | 24.529 | 42.12% | | `many_cubes -nfc -vpi` | 302.116 | 312.123 | 3.31% | | `many_foxes` | 3.227 | 3.515 | 8.92% | Because mesh uniform building requires compute shader, and WebGL 2 has no compute shader, the existing CPU mesh uniform building code has been left as-is. Many types now have both CPU mesh uniform building and GPU mesh uniform building modes. Developers can opt into the old CPU mesh uniform building by setting the `use_gpu_uniform_builder` option on `PbrPlugin` to `false`. Below are graphs of the CPU portions of `many-cubes --no-frustum-culling`. Yellow is this branch, red is `main`. `extract_meshes`:  It's notable that we get a small win even though we're now writing to a GPU buffer. `queue_material_meshes`:  There's a bit of a regression here; not sure what's causing it. In any case it's very outweighed by the other gains. `batch_and_prepare_render_phase`:  There's a huge win here, enough to make batching basically drop off the profile. `write_batched_instance_buffer`:  There's a massive improvement here, as expected. Note that a lot of it simply comes from the fact that `MeshInputUniform` is `Pod`. (This isn't a maintainability problem in my view because `MeshInputUniform` is so simple: just 16 tightly-packed words.) ## Changelog ### Added * Per-mesh instance data is now generated on GPU with a compute shader instead of CPU, resulting in rendering performance improvements on platforms where compute shaders are supported. ## Migration guide * Custom render phases now need multiple systems beyond just `batch_and_prepare_render_phase`. Code that was previously creating custom render phases should now add a `BinnedRenderPhasePlugin` or `SortedRenderPhasePlugin` as appropriate instead of directly adding `batch_and_prepare_render_phase`. |

Consolidate Render(Ui)Materials(2d) into RenderAssets (#12827)
# 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. |

Relax BufferVec's type constraints (#12866)
# Objective Since BufferVec was first introduced, `bytemuck` has added additional traits with fewer restrictions than `Pod`. Within BufferVec, we only rely on the constraints of `bytemuck::cast_slice` to a `u8` slice, which now only requires `T: NoUninit` which is a strict superset of `Pod` types. ## Solution Change out the `Pod` generic type constraint with `NoUninit`. Also taking the opportunity to substitute `cast_slice` with `must_cast_slice`, which avoids a runtime panic in place of a compile time failure if `T` cannot be used. --- ## Changelog Changed: `BufferVec` now supports working with types containing `NoUninit` but not `Pod` members. Changed: `BufferVec` will now fail to compile if used with a type that cannot be safely read from. Most notably, this includes ZSTs, which would previously always panic at runtime. |

Micro-optimize queue_material_meshes , primarily to remove bit manipulation. (#12791)
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`. |

Improve performance by binning together opaque items instead of sorting them. (#12453)
Today, we sort all entities added to all phases, even the phases that don't strictly need sorting, such as the opaque and shadow phases. This results in a performance loss because our `PhaseItem`s are rather large in memory, so sorting is slow. Additionally, determining the boundaries of batches is an O(n) process. This commit makes Bevy instead applicable place phase items into *bins* keyed by *bin keys*, which have the invariant that everything in the same bin is potentially batchable. This makes determining batch boundaries O(1), because everything in the same bin can be batched. Instead of sorting each entity, we now sort only the bin keys. This drops the sorting time to near-zero on workloads with few bins like `many_cubes --no-frustum-culling`. Memory usage is improved too, with batch boundaries and dynamic indices now implicit instead of explicit. The improved memory usage results in a significant win even on unbatchable workloads like `many_cubes --no-frustum-culling --vary-material-data-per-instance`, presumably due to cache effects. Not all phases can be binned; some, such as transparent and transmissive phases, must still be sorted. To handle this, this commit splits `PhaseItem` into `BinnedPhaseItem` and `SortedPhaseItem`. Most of the logic that today deals with `PhaseItem`s has been moved to `SortedPhaseItem`. `BinnedPhaseItem` has the new logic. Frame time results (in ms/frame) are as follows: | Benchmark | `binning` | `main` | Speedup | | ------------------------ | --------- | ------- | ------- | | `many_cubes -nfc -vpi` | 232.179 | 312.123 | 34.43% | | `many_cubes -nfc` | 25.874 | 30.117 | 16.40% | | `many_foxes` | 3.276 | 3.515 | 7.30% | (`-nfc` is short for `--no-frustum-culling`; `-vpi` is short for `--vary-per-instance`.) --- ## Changelog ### Changed * Render phases have been split into binned and sorted phases. Binned phases, such as the common opaque phase, achieve improved CPU performance by avoiding the sorting step. ## Migration Guide - `PhaseItem` has been split into `BinnedPhaseItem` and `SortedPhaseItem`. If your code has custom `PhaseItem`s, you will need to migrate them to one of these two types. `SortedPhaseItem` requires the fewest code changes, but you may want to pick `BinnedPhaseItem` if your phase doesn't require sorting, as that enables higher performance. ## Tracy graphs `many-cubes --no-frustum-culling`, `main` branch: <img width="1064" alt="Screenshot 2024-03-12 180037" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/157897/e1180ce8-8e89-46d2-85e3-f59f72109a55"> `many-cubes --no-frustum-culling`, this branch: <img width="1064" alt="Screenshot 2024-03-12 180011" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/157897/0899f036-6075-44c5-a972-44d95895f46c"> You can see that `batch_and_prepare_binned_render_phase` is a much smaller fraction of the time.

Make PersistentGpuBufferable a safe trait (#12744)
# Objective Fixes #12727. All parts that `PersistentGpuBuffer` interact with should be 100% safe both on the CPU and the GPU: `Queue::write_buffer_with` zeroes out the slice being written to and when uploading to the GPU, and all slice writes are bounds checked on the CPU side. ## Solution Make `PersistentGpuBufferable` a safe trait. Enforce it's correct implementation via assertions. Re-enable `forbid(unsafe_code)` on `bevy_pbr`. |

Get Bevy building for WebAssembly with multithreading (#12205)
# 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 --------- Co-authored-by: François <mockersf@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: daxpedda <daxpedda@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: François <francois.mockers@vleue.com> |

Use async-fn in traits rather than BoxedFuture (#12550)
# Objective Simplify implementing some asset traits without Box::pin(async move{}) shenanigans. Fixes (in part) https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/11308 ## Solution Use async-fn in traits when possible in all traits. Traits with return position impl trait are not object safe however, and as AssetReader and AssetWriter are both used with dynamic dispatch, you need a Boxed version of these futures anyway. In the future, Rust is [adding ](https://blog.rust-lang.org/2023/12/21/async-fn-rpit-in-traits.html)proc macros to generate these traits automatically, and at some point in the future dyn traits should 'just work'. Until then.... this seemed liked the right approach given more ErasedXXX already exist, but, no clue if there's plans here! Especially since these are public now, it's a bit of an unfortunate API, and means this is a breaking change. In theory this saves some performance when these traits are used with static dispatch, but, seems like most code paths go through dynamic dispatch, which boxes anyway. I also suspect a bunch of the lifetime annotations on these function could be simplified now as the BoxedFuture was often the only thing returned which needed a lifetime annotation, but I'm not touching that for now as traits + lifetimes can be so tricky. This is a revival of [pull/11362](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/11362) after a spectacular merge f*ckup, with updates to the latest Bevy. Just to recap some discussion: - Overall this seems like a win for code quality, especially when implementing these traits, but a loss for having to deal with ErasedXXX variants. - `ConditionalSend` was the preferred name for the trait that might be Send, to deal with wasm platforms. - When reviewing be sure to disable whitespace difference, as that's 95% of the PR. ## Changelog - AssetReader, AssetWriter, AssetLoader, AssetSaver and Process now use async-fn in traits rather than boxed futures. ## Migration Guide - Custom implementations of AssetReader, AssetWriter, AssetLoader, AssetSaver and Process should switch to async fn rather than returning a bevy_utils::BoxedFuture. - Simultaniously, to use dynamic dispatch on these traits you should instead use dyn ErasedXXX. |

Removed: bevy_core's reexports of bytemuck. ## Migration Guide bevy_utils' reexports of petgraph, uuid, nonmax, smallvec, and thiserror have been removed. bevy_core' reexports of bytemuck's types has been removed.

Ideally we should just be using tracing directly, but given that all of these crates are already using bevy_utils, this likely isn't that great of a loss right now. |

Batching: replace GpuArrayBufferIndex::index with a u32 (#12250)

This likely has some potential perf benefit by avoiding panics and the NOT operations, but I haven't been able to find any substantial gains, so this is primarily for code quality. --- ## Changelog Changed: `GpuArrayBufferIndex::index` is now a u32. ## Migration Guide `GpuArrayBuferIndex::index` is now a u32 instead of a `NonMaxU32`. Remove any calls to `NonMaxU32::get` on the member. |

Intern mesh vertex buffer layouts so that we don't have to compare them over and over. (#12216)
Although we cached hashes of `MeshVertexBufferLayout`, we were paying the cost of `PartialEq` on `InnerMeshVertexBufferLayout` for every entity, every frame. This patch changes that logic to place `MeshVertexBufferLayout`s in `Arc`s so that they can be compared and hashed by pointer. This results in a 28% speedup in the `queue_material_meshes` phase of `many_cubes`, with frustum culling disabled. Additionally, this patch contains two minor changes: 1. This commit flattens the specialized mesh pipeline cache to one level of hash tables instead of two. This saves a hash lookup. 2. The example `many_cubes` has been given a `--no-frustum-culling` flag, to aid in benchmarking. See the Tracy profile: <img width="1064" alt="Screenshot 2024-02-29 144406" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/157897/18632f1d-1fdd-4ac7-90ed-2d10306b2a1e"> ## Migration guide * Duplicate `MeshVertexBufferLayout`s are now combined into a single object, `MeshVertexBufferLayoutRef`, which contains an atomically-reference-counted pointer to the layout. Code that was using `MeshVertexBufferLayout` may need to be updated to use `MeshVertexBufferLayoutRef` instead. |

Migrate from LegacyColor to bevy_color::Color (#12163)
# Objective - As part of the migration process we need to a) see the end effect of the migration on user ergonomics b) check for serious perf regressions c) actually migrate the code - To accomplish this, I'm going to attempt to migrate all of the remaining user-facing usages of `LegacyColor` in one PR, being careful to keep a clean commit history. - Fixes #12056. ## Solution I've chosen to use the polymorphic `Color` type as our standard user-facing API. - [x] Migrate `bevy_gizmos`. - [x] Take `impl Into<Color>` in all `bevy_gizmos` APIs - [x] Migrate sprites - [x] Migrate UI - [x] Migrate `ColorMaterial` - [x] Migrate `MaterialMesh2D` - [x] Migrate fog - [x] Migrate lights - [x] Migrate StandardMaterial - [x] Migrate wireframes - [x] Migrate clear color - [x] Migrate text - [x] Migrate gltf loader - [x] Register color types for reflection - [x] Remove `LegacyColor` - [x] Make sure CI passes Incidental improvements to ease migration: - added `Color::srgba_u8`, `Color::srgba_from_array` and friends - added `set_alpha`, `is_fully_transparent` and `is_fully_opaque` to the `Alpha` trait - add and immediately deprecate (lol) `Color::rgb` and friends in favor of more explicit and consistent `Color::srgb` - standardized on white and black for most example text colors - added vector field traits to `LinearRgba`: ~~`Add`, `Sub`, `AddAssign`, `SubAssign`,~~ `Mul<f32>` and `Div<f32>`. Multiplications and divisions do not scale alpha. `Add` and `Sub` have been cut from this PR. - added `LinearRgba` and `Srgba` `RED/GREEN/BLUE` - added `LinearRgba_to_f32_array` and `LinearRgba::to_u32` ## Migration Guide Bevy's color types have changed! Wherever you used a `bevy::render::Color`, a `bevy::color::Color` is used instead. These are quite similar! Both are enums storing a color in a specific color space (or to be more precise, using a specific color model). However, each of the different color models now has its own type. TODO... - `Color::rgba`, `Color::rgb`, `Color::rbga_u8`, `Color::rgb_u8`, `Color::rgb_from_array` are now `Color::srgba`, `Color::srgb`, `Color::srgba_u8`, `Color::srgb_u8` and `Color::srgb_from_array`. - `Color::set_a` and `Color::a` is now `Color::set_alpha` and `Color::alpha`. These are part of the `Alpha` trait in `bevy_color`. - `Color::is_fully_transparent` is now part of the `Alpha` trait in `bevy_color` - `Color::r`, `Color::set_r`, `Color::with_r` and the equivalents for `g`, `b` `h`, `s` and `l` have been removed due to causing silent relatively expensive conversions. Convert your `Color` into the desired color space, perform your operations there, and then convert it back into a polymorphic `Color` enum. - `Color::hex` is now `Srgba::hex`. Call `.into` or construct a `Color::Srgba` variant manually to convert it. - `WireframeMaterial`, `ExtractedUiNode`, `ExtractedDirectionalLight`, `ExtractedPointLight`, `ExtractedSpotLight` and `ExtractedSprite` now store a `LinearRgba`, rather than a polymorphic `Color` - `Color::rgb_linear` and `Color::rgba_linear` are now `Color::linear_rgb` and `Color::linear_rgba` - The various CSS color constants are no longer stored directly on `Color`. Instead, they're defined in the `Srgba` color space, and accessed via `bevy::color::palettes::css`. Call `.into()` on them to convert them into a `Color` for quick debugging use, and consider using the much prettier `tailwind` palette for prototyping. - The `LIME_GREEN` color has been renamed to `LIMEGREEN` to comply with the standard naming. - Vector field arithmetic operations on `Color` (add, subtract, multiply and divide by a f32) have been removed. Instead, convert your colors into `LinearRgba` space, and perform your operations explicitly there. This is particularly relevant when working with emissive or HDR colors, whose color channel values are routinely outside of the ordinary 0 to 1 range. - `Color::as_linear_rgba_f32` has been removed. Call `LinearRgba::to_f32_array` instead, converting if needed. - `Color::as_linear_rgba_u32` has been removed. Call `LinearRgba::to_u32` instead, converting if needed. - Several other color conversion methods to transform LCH or HSL colors into float arrays or `Vec` types have been removed. Please reimplement these externally or open a PR to re-add them if you found them particularly useful. - Various methods on `Color` such as `rgb` or `hsl` to convert the color into a specific color space have been removed. Convert into `LinearRgba`, then to the color space of your choice. - Various implicitly-converting color value methods on `Color` such as `r`, `g`, `b` or `h` have been removed. Please convert it into the color space of your choice, then check these properties. - `Color` no longer implements `AsBindGroup`. Store a `LinearRgba` internally instead to avoid conversion costs. --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecil@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Afonso Lage <lage.afonso@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Rob Parrett <robparrett@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Zachary Harrold <zac@harrold.com.au> |

Use immutable key for HashMap and HashSet (#12086)
# Objective Memory usage optimisation ## Solution `HashMap` and `HashSet`'s keys are immutable. So using mutable types like `String`, `Vec<T>`, or `PathBuf` as a key is a waste of memory: they have an extra `usize` for their capacity and may have spare capacity. This PR replaces these types by their immutable equivalents `Box<str>`, `Box<[T]>`, and `Box<Path>`. For more context, I recommend watching the [Use Arc Instead of Vec](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4cKi7PTJSs) video. --------- Co-authored-by: James Liu <contact@jamessliu.com> |

Rename bevy_render::Color to LegacyColor (#12069)
# Objective The migration process for `bevy_color` (#12013) will be fairly involved: there will be hundreds of affected files, and a large number of APIs. ## Solution To allow us to proceed granularly, we're going to keep both `bevy_color::Color` (new) and `bevy_render::Color` (old) around until the migration is complete. However, simply doing this directly is confusing! They're both called `Color`, making it very hard to tell when a portion of the code has been ported. As discussed in #12056, by renaming the old `Color` type, we can make it easier to gradually migrate over, one API at a time. ## Migration Guide THIS MIGRATION GUIDE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK. This change should not be shipped to end users: delete this section in the final migration guide! --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecil@gmail.com> |

FIX: iOS Simulator not rendering due to missing CUBE_ARRAY_TEXTURES (#12052)
This PR closes #11978 # Objective Fix rendering on iOS Simulators. iOS Simulator doesn't support the capability CUBE_ARRAY_TEXTURES, since 0.13 this started to make iOS Simulator not render anything with the following message being outputted: ``` 2024-02-19T14:59:34.896266Z ERROR bevy_render::render_resource::pipeline_cache: failed to create shader module: Validation Error Caused by: In Device::create_shader_module Shader validation error: Type [40] '' is invalid Capability Capabilities(CUBE_ARRAY_TEXTURES) is required ``` ## Solution - Split up NO_ARRAY_TEXTURES_SUPPORT into both NO_ARRAY_TEXTURES_SUPPORT and NO_CUBE_ARRAY_TEXTURES_SUPPORT and correctly apply NO_ARRAY_TEXTURES_SUPPORT for iOS Simulator using the cfg flag introduced in #10178. --- ## Changelog ### Fixed - Rendering on iOS Simulator due to missing CUBE_ARRAY_TEXTURES support. --------- Co-authored-by: Sam Pettersson <sam.pettersson@geoguessr.com> |

Allow Mesh-related queue phase systems to parallelize (#11804)
# Objective Partially addresses #3548. `queue_shadows` and `queue_material_meshes` cannot parallelize because of the `ResMut<RenderMeshInstances>` parameter for `queue_material_meshes`. ## Solution Change the `material_bind_group` field to use atomics instead of needing full mutable access. Change the `ResMut` to a `Res`, which should allow both sets of systems to parallelize without issue. ## Performance Tested against `many_foxes`, this has a significant improvement over the entire render schedule. (Yellow is this PR, red is main)  The use of atomics does seem to have a negative effect on `queue_material_meshes` (roughly a 8.29% increase in time spent in the system).  `queue_shadows` seems to be ever so slightly slower (1.6% more time spent) in the system.  `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` seems to be a mix, but overall seems to be slightly *faster* by about 5%.  |

Update to wgpu 0.19 and raw-window-handle 0.6 (#11280)
# 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: https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/blob/trunk/CHANGELOG.md --------- Co-authored-by: François <mockersf@gmail.com> |

add storage_texture option to as_bind_group macro (#9943)
# Objective - Add the ability to describe storage texture bindings when deriving `AsBindGroup`. - This is especially valuable for the compute story of bevy which deserves some extra love imo. ## Solution - This add the ability to annotate struct fields with a `#[storage_texture(0)]` annotation. - Instead of adding specific option parsing for all the image formats and access modes, I simply accept a token stream and defer checking to see if the option is valid to the compiler. This still results in useful and friendly errors and is free to maintain and always compatible with wgpu changes. --- ## Changelog - The `#[storage_texture(..)]` annotation is now accepted for fields of `Handle<Image>` in structs that derive `AsBindGroup`. - The game_of_life compute shader example has been updated to use `AsBindGroup` together with `[storage_texture(..)]` to obtain the `BindGroupLayout`. ## Migration Guide |

Implement minimal reflection probes (fixed macOS, iOS, and Android). (#11366)
This pull request re-submits #10057, which was backed out for breaking macOS, iOS, and Android. I've tested this version on macOS and Android and on the iOS simulator. # Objective This pull request implements *reflection probes*, which generalize environment maps to allow for multiple environment maps in the same scene, each of which has an axis-aligned bounding box. This is a standard feature of physically-based renderers and was inspired by [the corresponding feature in Blender's Eevee renderer]. ## Solution This is a minimal implementation of reflection probes that allows artists to define cuboid bounding regions associated with environment maps. For every view, on every frame, a system builds up a list of the nearest 4 reflection probes that are within the view's frustum and supplies that list to the shader. The PBR fragment shader searches through the list, finds the first containing reflection probe, and uses it for indirect lighting, falling back to the view's environment map if none is found. Both forward and deferred renderers are fully supported. A reflection probe is an entity with a pair of components, *LightProbe* and *EnvironmentMapLight* (as well as the standard *SpatialBundle*, to position it in the world). The *LightProbe* component (along with the *Transform*) defines the bounding region, while the *EnvironmentMapLight* component specifies the associated diffuse and specular cubemaps. A frequent question is "why two components instead of just one?" The advantages of this setup are: 1. It's readily extensible to other types of light probes, in particular *irradiance volumes* (also known as ambient cubes or voxel global illumination), which use the same approach of bounding cuboids. With a single component that applies to both reflection probes and irradiance volumes, we can share the logic that implements falloff and blending between multiple light probes between both of those features. 2. It reduces duplication between the existing *EnvironmentMapLight* and these new reflection probes. Systems can treat environment maps attached to cameras the same way they treat environment maps applied to reflection probes if they wish. Internally, we gather up all environment maps in the scene and place them in a cubemap array. At present, this means that all environment maps must have the same size, mipmap count, and texture format. A warning is emitted if this restriction is violated. We could potentially relax this in the future as part of the automatic mipmap generation work, which could easily do texture format conversion as part of its preprocessing. An easy way to generate reflection probe cubemaps is to bake them in Blender and use the `export-blender-gi` tool that's part of the [`bevy-baked-gi`] project. This tool takes a `.blend` file containing baked cubemaps as input and exports cubemap images, pre-filtered with an embedded fork of the [glTF IBL Sampler], alongside a corresponding `.scn.ron` file that the scene spawner can use to recreate the reflection probes. Note that this is intentionally a minimal implementation, to aid reviewability. Known issues are: * Reflection probes are basically unsupported on WebGL 2, because WebGL 2 has no cubemap arrays. (Strictly speaking, you can have precisely one reflection probe in the scene if you have no other cubemaps anywhere, but this isn't very useful.) * Reflection probes have no falloff, so reflections will abruptly change when objects move from one bounding region to another. * As mentioned before, all cubemaps in the world of a given type (diffuse or specular) must have the same size, format, and mipmap count. Future work includes: * Blending between multiple reflection probes. * A falloff/fade-out region so that reflected objects disappear gradually instead of vanishing all at once. * Irradiance volumes for voxel-based global illumination. This should reuse much of the reflection probe logic, as they're both GI techniques based on cuboid bounding regions. * Support for WebGL 2, by breaking batches when reflection probes are used. These issues notwithstanding, I think it's best to land this with roughly the current set of functionality, because this patch is useful as is and adding everything above would make the pull request significantly larger and harder to review. --- ## Changelog ### Added * A new *LightProbe* component is available that specifies a bounding region that an *EnvironmentMapLight* applies to. The combination of a *LightProbe* and an *EnvironmentMapLight* offers *reflection probe* functionality similar to that available in other engines.

Unload render assets from RAM (#10520)
# Objective - No point in keeping Meshes/Images in RAM once they're going to be sent to the GPU, and kept in VRAM. This saves a _significant_ amount of memory (several GBs) on scenes like bistro. - References - https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/1782 - https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8624 ## Solution - Augment RenderAsset with the capability to unload the underlying asset after extracting to the render world. - Mesh/Image now have a cpu_persistent_access field. If this field is RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Unload, the asset will be unloaded from Assets<T>. - A new AssetEvent is sent upon dropping the last strong handle for the asset, which signals to the RenderAsset to remove the GPU version of the asset. --- ## Changelog - Added `AssetEvent::NoLongerUsed` and `AssetEvent::is_no_longer_used()`. This event is sent when the last strong handle of an asset is dropped. - Rewrote the API for `RenderAsset` to allow for unloading the asset data from the CPU. - Added `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy`. - Added `Mesh::cpu_persistent_access` for memory savings when the asset is not needed except for on the GPU. - Added `Image::cpu_persistent_access` for memory savings when the asset is not needed except for on the GPU. - Added `ImageLoaderSettings::cpu_persistent_access`. - Added `ExrTextureLoaderSettings`. - Added `HdrTextureLoaderSettings`. ## Migration Guide - Asset loaders (GLTF, etc) now load meshes and textures without `cpu_persistent_access`. These assets will be removed from `Assets<Mesh>` and `Assets<Image>` once `RenderAssets<Mesh>` and `RenderAssets<Image>` contain the GPU versions of these assets, in order to reduce memory usage. If you require access to the asset data from the CPU in future frames after the GLTF asset has been loaded, modify all dependent `Mesh` and `Image` assets and set `cpu_persistent_access` to `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep`. - `Mesh` now requires a new `cpu_persistent_access` field. Set it to `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep` to mimic the previous behavior. - `Image` now requires a new `cpu_persistent_access` field. Set it to `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep` to mimic the previous behavior. - `MorphTargetImage::new()` now requires a new `cpu_persistent_access` parameter. Set it to `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep` to mimic the previous behavior. - `DynamicTextureAtlasBuilder::add_texture()` now requires that the `TextureAtlas` you pass has an `Image` with `cpu_persistent_access: RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep`. Ensure you construct the image properly for the texture atlas. - The `RenderAsset` trait has significantly changed, and requires adapting your existing implementations. - The trait now requires `Clone`. - The `ExtractedAsset` associated type has been removed (the type itself is now extracted). - The signature of `prepare_asset()` is slightly different - A new `persistence_policy()` method is now required (return RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Unload to match the previous behavior). - Match on the new `NoLongerUsed` variant for exhaustive matches of `AssetEvent`. |

Replace or document ignored doctests (#11040)
# Objective There are a lot of doctests that are `ignore`d for no documented reason. And that should be fixed. ## Solution I searched the bevy repo with the regex ` ```[a-z,]*ignore ` in order to find all `ignore`d doctests. For each one of the `ignore`d doctests, I did the following steps: 1. Attempt to remove the `ignored` attribute while still passing the test. I did this by adding hidden dummy structs and imports. 2. If step 1 doesn't work, attempt to replace the `ignored` attribute with the `no_run` attribute while still passing the test. 3. If step 2 doesn't work, keep the `ignored` attribute but add documentation for why the `ignored` attribute was added. --------- Co-authored-by: François <mockersf@gmail.com> |

Update to wgpu 0.18 (#10266)
# 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 |

Swap material and mesh bind groups (#10485)
# Objective - Materials should be a more frequent rebind then meshes (due to being able to use a single vertex buffer, such as in #10164) and therefore should be in a higher bind group. --- ## Changelog - For 2d and 3d mesh/material setups (but not UI materials, or other rendering setups such as gizmos, sprites, or text), mesh data is now in bind group 1, and material data is now in bind group 2, which is swapped from how they were before. ## Migration Guide - Custom 2d and 3d mesh/material shaders should now use bind group 2 `@group(2) @binding(x)` for their bound resources, instead of bind group 1. - Many internal pieces of rendering code have changed so that mesh data is now in bind group 1, and material data is now in bind group 2. Semi-custom rendering setups (that don't use the Material or Material2d APIs) should adapt to these changes. |

Bind group layout entries (#10224)
# Objective
- Follow up to #9694
## Solution
- Same api as #9694 but adapted for `BindGroupLayoutEntry`
- Use the same `ShaderStages` visibilty for all entries by default
- Add `BindingType` helper function that mirror the wgsl equivalent and
that make writing layouts much simpler.
Before:
```rust
let layout = render_device.create_bind_group_layout(&BindGroupLayoutDescriptor {
label: Some("post_process_bind_group_layout"),
entries: &[
BindGroupLayoutEntry {
binding: 0,
visibility: ShaderStages::FRAGMENT,
ty: BindingType::Texture {
sample_type: TextureSampleType::Float { filterable: true },
view_dimension: TextureViewDimension::D2,
multisampled: false,
},
count: None,
},
BindGroupLayoutEntry {
binding: 1,
visibility: ShaderStages::FRAGMENT,
ty: BindingType::Sampler(SamplerBindingType::Filtering),
count: None,
},
BindGroupLayoutEntry {
binding: 2,
visibility: ShaderStages::FRAGMENT,
ty: BindingType::Buffer {
ty: bevy::render::render_resource::BufferBindingType::Uniform,
has_dynamic_offset: false,
min_binding_size: Some(PostProcessSettings::min_size()),
},
count: None,
},
],
});
```
After:
```rust
let layout = render_device.create_bind_group_layout(
"post_process_bind_group_layout"),
&BindGroupLayoutEntries::sequential(
ShaderStages::FRAGMENT,
(
texture_2d_f32(),
sampler(SamplerBindingType::Filtering),
uniform_buffer(false, Some(PostProcessSettings::min_size())),
),
),
);
```

Enable clippy::undocumented_unsafe_blocks warning across the workspace (#10646)
# Objective Enables warning on `clippy::undocumented_unsafe_blocks` across the workspace rather than only in `bevy_ecs`, `bevy_transform` and `bevy_utils`. This adds a little awkwardness in a few areas of code that have trivial safety or explain safety for multiple unsafe blocks with one comment however automatically prevents these comments from being missed. ## Solution This adds `undocumented_unsafe_blocks = "warn"` to the workspace `Cargo.toml` and fixes / adds a few missed safety comments. I also added `#[allow(clippy::undocumented_unsafe_blocks)]` where the safety is explained somewhere above. There are a couple of safety comments I added I'm not 100% sure about in `bevy_animation` and `bevy_render/src/view` and I'm not sure about the use of `#[allow(clippy::undocumented_unsafe_blocks)]` compared to adding comments like `// SAFETY: See above`. |

Derive Error for more error types (#10240)
# Objective Align all error-like types to implement `Error`. Fixes #10176 ## Solution - Derive `Error` on more types - Refactor instances of manual implementations that could be derived This adds thiserror as a dependency to bevy_transform, which might increase compilation time -- but I don't know of any situation where you might only use that but not any other crate that pulls in bevy_utils. The `contributors` example has a `LoadContributorsError` type, but as it's an example I have not updated it. Doing that would mean either having a `use bevy_internal::utils::thiserror::Error;` in an example file, or adding `thiserror` as a dev-dependency to the main `bevy` crate. --- ## Changelog - All `…Error` types now implement the `Error` trait |

Bind group entries (#9694)
# Objective Simplify bind group creation code. alternative to (and based on) #9476 ## Solution - Add a `BindGroupEntries` struct that can transparently be used where `&[BindGroupEntry<'b>]` is required in BindGroupDescriptors. Allows constructing the descriptor's entries as: ```rust render_device.create_bind_group( "my_bind_group", &my_layout, &BindGroupEntries::with_indexes(( (2, &my_sampler), (3, my_uniform), )), ); ``` instead of ```rust render_device.create_bind_group( "my_bind_group", &my_layout, &[ BindGroupEntry { binding: 2, resource: BindingResource::Sampler(&my_sampler), }, BindGroupEntry { binding: 3, resource: my_uniform, }, ], ); ``` or ```rust render_device.create_bind_group( "my_bind_group", &my_layout, &BindGroupEntries::sequential((&my_sampler, my_uniform)), ); ``` instead of ```rust render_device.create_bind_group( "my_bind_group", &my_layout, &[ BindGroupEntry { binding: 0, resource: BindingResource::Sampler(&my_sampler), }, BindGroupEntry { binding: 1, resource: my_uniform, }, ], ); ``` the structs has no user facing macros, is tuple-type-based so stack allocated, and has no noticeable impact on compile time. - Also adds a `DynamicBindGroupEntries` struct with a similar api that uses a `Vec` under the hood and allows extending the entries. - Modifies `RenderDevice::create_bind_group` to take separate arguments `label`, `layout` and `entries` instead of a `BindGroupDescriptor` struct. The struct can't be stored due to the internal references, and with only 3 members arguably does not add enough context to justify itself. - Modify the codebase to use the new api and the `BindGroupEntries` / `DynamicBindGroupEntries` structs where appropriate (whenever the entries slice contains more than 1 member). ## Migration Guide - Calls to `RenderDevice::create_bind_group({BindGroupDescriptor { label, layout, entries })` must be amended to `RenderDevice::create_bind_group(label, layout, entries)`. - If `label`s have been specified as `"bind_group_name".into()`, they need to change to just `"bind_group_name"`. `Some("bind_group_name")` and `None` will still work, but `Some("bind_group_name")` can optionally be simplified to just `"bind_group_name"`. --------- Co-authored-by: IceSentry <IceSentry@users.noreply.github.com> |

allow extensions to StandardMaterial (#7820)
# Objective allow extending `Material`s (including the built in `StandardMaterial`) with custom vertex/fragment shaders and additional data, to easily get pbr lighting with custom modifications, or otherwise extend a base material. # Solution - added `ExtendedMaterial<B: Material, E: MaterialExtension>` which contains a base material and a user-defined extension. - added example `extended_material` showing how to use it - modified AsBindGroup to have "unprepared" functions that return raw resources / layout entries so that the extended material can combine them note: doesn't currently work with array resources, as i can't figure out how to make the OwnedBindingResource::get_binding() work, as wgpu requires a `&'a[&'a TextureView]` and i have a `Vec<TextureView>`. # Migration Guide manual implementations of `AsBindGroup` will need to be adjusted, the changes are pretty straightforward and can be seen in the diff for e.g. the `texture_binding_array` example. --------- Co-authored-by: Robert Swain <robert.swain@gmail.com> |

Removed anyhow (#10003)
# Objective - Fixes #8140 ## Solution - Added Explicit Error Typing for `AssetLoader` and `AssetSaver`, which were the last instances of `anyhow` in use across Bevy. --- ## Changelog - Added an associated type `Error` to `AssetLoader` and `AssetSaver` for use with the `load` and `save` methods respectively. - Changed `ErasedAssetLoader` and `ErasedAssetSaver` `load` and `save` methods to use `Box<dyn Error + Send + Sync + 'static>` to allow for arbitrary `Error` types from the non-erased trait variants. Note the strict requirements match the pre-existing requirements around `anyhow::Error`. ## Migration Guide - `anyhow` is no longer exported by `bevy_asset`; Add it to your own project (if required). - `AssetLoader` and `AssetSaver` have an associated type `Error`; Define an appropriate error type (e.g., using `thiserror`), or use a pre-made error type (e.g., `anyhow::Error`). Note that using `anyhow::Error` is a drop-in replacement. - `AssetLoaderError` has been removed; Define a new error type, or use an alternative (e.g., `anyhow::Error`) - All the first-party `AssetLoader`'s and `AssetSaver`'s now return relevant (and narrow) error types instead of a single ambiguous type; Match over the specific error type, or encapsulate (`Box<dyn>`, `thiserror`, `anyhow`, etc.) ## Notes A simpler PR to resolve this issue would simply define a Bevy `Error` type defined as `Box<dyn std::error::Error + Send + Sync + 'static>`, but I think this type of error handling should be discouraged when possible. Since only 2 traits required the use of `anyhow`, it isn't a substantive body of work to solidify these error types, and remove `anyhow` entirely. End users are still encouraged to use `anyhow` if that is their preferred error handling style. Arguably, adding the `Error` associated type gives more freedom to end-users to decide whether they want more or less explicit error handling (`anyhow` vs `thiserror`). As an aside, I didn't perform any testing on Android or WASM. CI passed locally, but there may be mistakes for those platforms I missed. |

Replaced parking_lot with std::sync (#9545)
# Objective - Fixes #4610 ## Solution - Replaced all instances of `parking_lot` locks with equivalents from `std::sync`. Acquiring locks within `std::sync` can fail, so `.expect("Lock Poisoned")` statements were added where required. ## Comments In [this comment](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/4610#issuecomment-1592407881), the lack of deadlock detection was mentioned as a potential reason to not make this change. From what I can gather, Bevy doesn't appear to be using this functionality within the engine. Unless it was expected that a Bevy consumer was expected to enable and use this functionality, it appears to be a feature lost without consequence. Unfortunately, `cpal` and `wgpu` both still rely on `parking_lot`, leaving it in the dependency graph even after this change. From my basic experimentation, this change doesn't appear to have any performance impacts, positive or negative. I tested this using `bevymark` with 50,000 entities and observed 20ms of frame-time before and after the change. More extensive testing with larger/real projects should probably be done. |

Directly copy data into uniform buffers (#9865)
# Objective This is a minimally disruptive version of #8340. I attempted to update it, but failed due to the scope of the changes added in #8204. Fixes #8307. Partially addresses #4642. As seen in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/8284, we're actually copying data twice in Prepare stage systems. Once into a CPU-side intermediate scratch buffer, and once again into a mapped buffer. This is inefficient and effectively doubles the time spent and memory allocated to run these systems. ## Solution Skip the scratch buffer entirely and use `wgpu::Queue::write_buffer_with` to directly write data into mapped buffers. Separately, this also directly uses `wgpu::Limits::min_uniform_buffer_offset_alignment` to set up the alignment when writing to the buffers. Partially addressing the issue raised in #4642. Storage buffers and the abstractions built on top of `DynamicUniformBuffer` will need to come in followup PRs. This may not have a noticeable performance difference in this PR, as the only first-party systems affected by this are view related, and likely are not going to be particularly heavy. --- ## Changelog Added: `DynamicUniformBuffer::get_writer`. Added: `DynamicUniformBufferWriter`. |

Automatic batching/instancing of draw commands (#9685)
# Objective - Implement the foundations of automatic batching/instancing of draw commands as the next step from #89 - NOTE: More performance improvements will come when more data is managed and bound in ways that do not require rebinding such as mesh, material, and texture data. ## Solution - The core idea for batching of draw commands is to check whether any of the information that has to be passed when encoding a draw command changes between two things that are being drawn according to the sorted render phase order. These should be things like the pipeline, bind groups and their dynamic offsets, index/vertex buffers, and so on. - The following assumptions have been made: - Only entities with prepared assets (pipelines, materials, meshes) are queued to phases - View bindings are constant across a phase for a given draw function as phases are per-view - `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` is the only system that performs this batching and has sole responsibility for preparing the per-object data. As such the mesh binding and dynamic offsets are assumed to only vary as a result of the `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` system, e.g. due to having to split data across separate uniform bindings within the same buffer due to the maximum uniform buffer binding size. - Implement `GpuArrayBuffer` for `Mesh2dUniform` to store Mesh2dUniform in arrays in GPU buffers rather than each one being at a dynamic offset in a uniform buffer. This is the same optimisation that was made for 3D not long ago. - Change batch size for a range in `PhaseItem`, adding API for getting or mutating the range. This is more flexible than a size as the length of the range can be used in place of the size, but the start and end can be otherwise whatever is needed. - Add an optional mesh bind group dynamic offset to `PhaseItem`. This avoids having to do a massive table move just to insert `GpuArrayBufferIndex` components. ## Benchmarks All tests have been run on an M1 Max on AC power. `bevymark` and `many_cubes` were modified to use 1920x1080 with a scale factor of 1. I run a script that runs a separate Tracy capture process, and then runs the bevy example with `--features bevy_ci_testing,trace_tracy` and `CI_TESTING_CONFIG=../benchmark.ron` with the contents of `../benchmark.ron`: ```rust ( exit_after: Some(1500) ) ``` ...in order to run each test for 1500 frames. The recent changes to `many_cubes` and `bevymark` added reproducible random number generation so that with the same settings, the same rng will occur. They also added benchmark modes that use a fixed delta time for animations. Combined this means that the same frames should be rendered both on main and on the branch. The graphs compare main (yellow) to this PR (red). ### 3D Mesh `many_cubes --benchmark` <img width="1411" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-03 at 23 42 10" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/2088716a-c918-486c-8129-090b26fd2bc4"> The mesh and material are the same for all instances. This is basically the best case for the initial batching implementation as it results in 1 draw for the ~11.7k visible meshes. It gives a ~30% reduction in median frame time. The 1000th frame is identical using the flip tool:  ``` Mean: 0.000000 Weighted median: 0.000000 1st weighted quartile: 0.000000 3rd weighted quartile: 0.000000 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.000000 Evaluation time: 0.4615 seconds ``` ### 3D Mesh `many_cubes --benchmark --material-texture-count 10` <img width="1404" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-03 at 23 45 18" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/5ee9c447-5bd2-45c6-9706-ac5ff8916daf"> This run uses 10 different materials by varying their textures. The materials are randomly selected, and there is no sorting by material bind group for opaque 3D so any batching is 'random'. The PR produces a ~5% reduction in median frame time. If we were to sort the opaque phase by the material bind group, then this should be a lot faster. This produces about 10.5k draws for the 11.7k visible entities. This makes sense as randomly selecting from 10 materials gives a chance that two adjacent entities randomly select the same material and can be batched. The 1000th frame is identical in flip:  ``` Mean: 0.000000 Weighted median: 0.000000 1st weighted quartile: 0.000000 3rd weighted quartile: 0.000000 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.000000 Evaluation time: 0.4537 seconds ``` ### 3D Mesh `many_cubes --benchmark --vary-per-instance` <img width="1394" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-03 at 23 48 44" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/f02a816b-a444-4c18-a96a-63b5436f3b7f"> This run varies the material data per instance by randomly-generating its colour. This is the worst case for batching and that it performs about the same as `main` is a good thing as it demonstrates that the batching has minimal overhead when dealing with ~11k visible mesh entities. The 1000th frame is identical according to flip:  ``` Mean: 0.000000 Weighted median: 0.000000 1st weighted quartile: 0.000000 3rd weighted quartile: 0.000000 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.000000 Evaluation time: 0.4568 seconds ``` ### 2D Mesh `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode mesh2d` <img width="1412" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-03 at 23 59 56" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/cb02ae07-237b-4646-ae9f-fda4dafcbad4"> This spawns 160 waves of 1000 quad meshes that are shaded with ColorMaterial. Each wave has a different material so 160 waves currently should result in 160 batches. This results in a 50% reduction in median frame time. Capturing a screenshot of the 1000th frame main vs PR gives:  ``` Mean: 0.001222 Weighted median: 0.750432 1st weighted quartile: 0.453494 3rd weighted quartile: 0.969758 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.990296 Evaluation time: 0.4255 seconds ``` So they seem to produce the same results. I also double-checked the number of draws. `main` does 160000 draws, and the PR does 160, as expected. ### 2D Mesh `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode mesh2d --material-texture-count 10` <img width="1392" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-04 at 00 09 22" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/4358da2e-ce32-4134-82df-3ab74c40849c"> This generates 10 textures and generates materials for each of those and then selects one material per wave. The median frame time is reduced by 50%. Similar to the plain run above, this produces 160 draws on the PR and 160000 on `main` and the 1000th frame is identical (ignoring the fps counter text overlay).  ``` Mean: 0.002877 Weighted median: 0.964980 1st weighted quartile: 0.668871 3rd weighted quartile: 0.982749 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.992377 Evaluation time: 0.4301 seconds ``` ### 2D Mesh `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode mesh2d --vary-per-instance` <img width="1396" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-04 at 00 13 53" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/b2198b18-3439-47ad-919a-cdabe190facb"> This creates unique materials per instance by randomly-generating the material's colour. This is the worst case for 2D batching. Somehow, this PR manages a 7% reduction in median frame time. Both main and this PR issue 160000 draws. The 1000th frame is the same:  ``` Mean: 0.001214 Weighted median: 0.937499 1st weighted quartile: 0.635467 3rd weighted quartile: 0.979085 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.988971 Evaluation time: 0.4462 seconds ``` ### 2D Sprite `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode sprite` <img width="1396" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-04 at 12 21 12" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/8b31e915-d6be-4cac-abf5-c6a4da9c3d43"> This just spawns 160 waves of 1000 sprites. There should be and is no notable difference between main and the PR. ### 2D Sprite `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode sprite --material-texture-count 10` <img width="1389" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-04 at 12 36 08" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/45fe8d6d-c901-4062-a349-3693dd044413"> This spawns the sprites selecting a texture at random per instance from the 10 generated textures.

Bevy Asset V2 (#8624)
# Bevy Asset V2 Proposal ## Why Does Bevy Need A New Asset System? Asset pipelines are a central part of the gamedev process. Bevy's current asset system is missing a number of features that make it non-viable for many classes of gamedev. After plenty of discussions and [a long community feedback period](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/3972), we've identified a number missing features: * **Asset Preprocessing**: it should be possible to "preprocess" / "compile" / "crunch" assets at "development time" rather than when the game starts up. This enables offloading expensive work from deployed apps, faster asset loading, less runtime memory usage, etc. * **Per-Asset Loader Settings**: Individual assets cannot define their own loaders that override the defaults. Additionally, they cannot provide per-asset settings to their loaders. This is a huge limitation, as many asset types don't provide all information necessary for Bevy _inside_ the asset. For example, a raw PNG image says nothing about how it should be sampled (ex: linear vs nearest). * **Asset `.meta` files**: assets should have configuration files stored adjacent to the asset in question, which allows the user to configure asset-type-specific settings. These settings should be accessible during the pre-processing phase. Modifying a `.meta` file should trigger a re-processing / re-load of the asset. It should be possible to configure asset loaders from the meta file. * **Processed Asset Hot Reloading**: Changes to processed assets (or their dependencies) should result in re-processing them and re-loading the results in live Bevy Apps. * **Asset Dependency Tracking**: The current bevy_asset has no good way to wait for asset dependencies to load. It punts this as an exercise for consumers of the loader apis, which is unreasonable and error prone. There should be easy, ergonomic ways to wait for assets to load and block some logic on an asset's entire dependency tree loading. * **Runtime Asset Loading**: it should be (optionally) possible to load arbitrary assets dynamically at runtime. This necessitates being able to deploy and run the asset server alongside Bevy Apps on _all platforms_. For example, we should be able to invoke the shader compiler at runtime, stream scenes from sources like the internet, etc. To keep deployed binaries (and startup times) small, the runtime asset server configuration should be configurable with different settings compared to the "pre processor asset server". * **Multiple Backends**: It should be possible to load assets from arbitrary sources (filesystems, the internet, remote asset serves, etc). * **Asset Packing**: It should be possible to deploy assets in compressed "packs", which makes it easier and more efficient to distribute assets with Bevy Apps. * **Asset Handoff**: It should be possible to hold a "live" asset handle, which correlates to runtime data, without actually holding the asset in memory. Ex: it must be possible to hold a reference to a GPU mesh generated from a "mesh asset" without keeping the mesh data in CPU memory * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: Different platforms and app distributions have different capabilities and requirements. Some platforms need lower asset resolutions or different asset formats to operate within the hardware constraints of the platform. It should be possible to define per-platform asset processing profiles. And it should be possible to deploy only the assets required for a given platform. These features have architectural implications that are significant enough to require a full rewrite. The current Bevy Asset implementation got us this far, but it can take us no farther. This PR defines a brand new asset system that implements most of these features, while laying the foundations for the remaining features to be built. ## Bevy Asset V2 Here is a quick overview of the features introduced in this PR. * **Asset Preprocessing**: Preprocess assets at development time into more efficient (and configurable) representations * **Dependency Aware**: Dependencies required to process an asset are tracked. If an asset's processed dependency changes, it will be reprocessed * **Hot Reprocessing/Reloading**: detect changes to asset source files, reprocess them if they have changed, and then hot-reload them in Bevy Apps. * **Only Process Changes**: Assets are only re-processed when their source file (or meta file) has changed. This uses hashing and timestamps to avoid processing assets that haven't changed. * **Transactional and Reliable**: Uses write-ahead logging (a technique commonly used by databases) to recover from crashes / forced-exits. Whenever possible it avoids full-reprocessing / only uncompleted transactions will be reprocessed. When the processor is running in parallel with a Bevy App, processor asset writes block Bevy App asset reads. Reading metadata + asset bytes is guaranteed to be transactional / correctly paired. * **Portable / Run anywhere / Database-free**: The processor does not rely on an in-memory database (although it uses some database techniques for reliability). This is important because pretty much all in-memory databases have unsupported platforms or build complications. * **Configure Processor Defaults Per File Type**: You can say "use this processor for all files of this type". * **Custom Processors**: The `Processor` trait is flexible and unopinionated. It can be implemented by downstream plugins. * **LoadAndSave Processors**: Most asset processing scenarios can be expressed as "run AssetLoader A, save the results using AssetSaver X, and then load the result using AssetLoader B". For example, load this png image using `PngImageLoader`, which produces an `Image` asset and then save it using `CompressedImageSaver` (which also produces an `Image` asset, but in a compressed format), which takes an `Image` asset as input. This means if you have an `AssetLoader` for an asset, you are already half way there! It also means that you can share AssetSavers across multiple loaders. Because `CompressedImageSaver` accepts Bevy's generic Image asset as input, it means you can also use it with some future `JpegImageLoader`. * **Loader and Saver Settings**: Asset Loaders and Savers can now define their own settings types, which are passed in as input when an asset is loaded / saved. Each asset can define its own settings. * **Asset `.meta` files**: configure asset loaders, their settings, enable/disable processing, and configure processor settings * **Runtime Asset Dependency Tracking** Runtime asset dependencies (ex: if an asset contains a `Handle<Image>`) are tracked by the asset server. An event is emitted when an asset and all of its dependencies have been loaded * **Unprocessed Asset Loading**: Assets do not require preprocessing. They can be loaded directly. A processed asset is just a "normal" asset with some extra metadata. Asset Loaders don't need to know or care about whether or not an asset was processed. * **Async Asset IO**: Asset readers/writers use async non-blocking interfaces. Note that because Rust doesn't yet support async traits, there is a bit of manual Boxing / Future boilerplate. This will hopefully be removed in the near future when Rust gets async traits. * **Pluggable Asset Readers and Writers**: Arbitrary asset source readers/writers are supported, both by the processor and the asset server. * **Better Asset Handles** * **Single Arc Tree**: Asset Handles now use a single arc tree that represents the lifetime of the asset. This makes their implementation simpler, more efficient, and allows us to cheaply attach metadata to handles. Ex: the AssetPath of a handle is now directly accessible on the handle itself! * **Const Typed Handles**: typed handles can be constructed in a const context. No more weird "const untyped converted to typed at runtime" patterns! * **Handles and Ids are Smaller / Faster To Hash / Compare**: Typed `Handle<T>` is now much smaller in memory and `AssetId<T>` is even smaller. * **Weak Handle Usage Reduction**: In general Handles are now considered to be "strong". Bevy features that previously used "weak `Handle<T>`" have been ported to `AssetId<T>`, which makes it statically clear that the features do not hold strong handles (while retaining strong type information). Currently Handle::Weak still exists, but it is very possible that we can remove that entirely. * **Efficient / Dense Asset Ids**: Assets now have efficient dense runtime asset ids, which means we can avoid expensive hash lookups. Assets are stored in Vecs instead of HashMaps. There are now typed and untyped ids, which means we no longer need to store dynamic type information in the ID for typed handles. "AssetPathId" (which was a nightmare from a performance and correctness standpoint) has been entirely removed in favor of dense ids (which are retrieved for a path on load) * **Direct Asset Loading, with Dependency Tracking**: Assets that are defined at runtime can still have their dependencies tracked by the Asset Server (ex: if you create a material at runtime, you can still wait for its textures to load). This is accomplished via the (currently optional) "asset dependency visitor" trait. This system can also be used to define a set of assets to load, then wait for those assets to load. * **Async folder loading**: Folder loading also uses this system and immediately returns a handle to the LoadedFolder asset, which means folder loading no longer blocks on directory traversals. * **Improved Loader Interface**: Loaders now have a specific "top level asset type", which makes returning the top-level asset simpler and statically typed. * **Basic Image Settings and Processing**: Image assets can now be processed into the gpu-friendly Basic Universal format. The ImageLoader now has a setting to define what format the image should be loaded as. Note that this is just a minimal MVP ... plenty of additional work to do here. To demo this, enable the `basis-universal` feature and turn on asset processing. * **Simpler Audio Play / AudioSink API**: Asset handle providers are cloneable, which means the Audio resource can mint its own handles. This means you can now do `let sink_handle = audio.play(music)` instead of `let sink_handle = audio_sinks.get_handle(audio.play(music))`. Note that this might still be replaced by https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8424. **Removed Handle Casting From Engine Features**: Ex: FontAtlases no longer use casting between handle types ## Using The New Asset System ### Normal Unprocessed Asset Loading By default the `AssetPlugin` does not use processing. It behaves pretty much the same way as the old system. If you are defining a custom asset, first derive `Asset`: ```rust #[derive(Asset)] struct Thing { value: String, } ``` Initialize the asset: ```rust app.init_asset:<Thing>() ``` Implement a new `AssetLoader` for it: ```rust #[derive(Default)] struct ThingLoader; #[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Default)] pub struct ThingSettings { some_setting: bool, } impl AssetLoader for ThingLoader { type Asset = Thing; type Settings = ThingSettings; fn load<'a>( &'a self, reader: &'a mut Reader, settings: &'a ThingSettings, load_context: &'a mut LoadContext, ) -> BoxedFuture<'a, Result<Thing, anyhow::Error>> { Box::pin(async move { let mut bytes = Vec::new(); reader.read_to_end(&mut bytes).await?; // convert bytes to value somehow Ok(Thing { value }) }) } fn extensions(&self) -> &[&str] { &["thing"] } } ``` Note that this interface will get much cleaner once Rust gets support for async traits. `Reader` is an async futures_io::AsyncRead. You can stream bytes as they come in or read them all into a `Vec<u8>`, depending on the context. You can use `let handle = load_context.load(path)` to kick off a dependency load, retrieve a handle, and register the dependency for the asset. Then just register the loader in your Bevy app: ```rust app.init_asset_loader::<ThingLoader>() ``` Now just add your `Thing` asset files into the `assets` folder and load them like this: ```rust fn system(asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) { let handle = Handle<Thing> = asset_server.load("cool.thing"); } ``` You can check load states directly via the asset server: ```rust if asset_server.load_state(&handle) == LoadState::Loaded { } ``` You can also listen for events: ```rust fn system(mut events: EventReader<AssetEvent<Thing>>, handle: Res<SomeThingHandle>) { for event in events.iter() { if event.is_loaded_with_dependencies(&handle) { } } } ``` Note the new `AssetEvent::LoadedWithDependencies`, which only fires when the asset is loaded _and_ all dependencies (and their dependencies) have loaded. Unlike the old asset system, for a given asset path all `Handle<T>` values point to the same underlying Arc. This means Handles can cheaply hold more asset information, such as the AssetPath: ```rust // prints the AssetPath of the handle info!("{:?}", handle.path()) ``` ### Processed Assets Asset processing can be enabled via the `AssetPlugin`. When developing Bevy Apps with processed assets, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev())) ``` This runs the `AssetProcessor` in the background with hot-reloading. It reads assets from the `assets` folder, processes them, and writes them to the `.imported_assets` folder. Asset loads in the Bevy App will wait for a processed version of the asset to become available. If an asset in the `assets` folder changes, it will be reprocessed and hot-reloaded in the Bevy App. When deploying processed Bevy apps, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed())) ``` This does not run the `AssetProcessor` in the background. It behaves like `AssetPlugin::unprocessed()`, but reads assets from `.imported_assets`. When the `AssetProcessor` is running, it will populate sibling `.meta` files for assets in the `assets` folder. Meta files for assets that do not have a processor configured look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` This is metadata for an image asset. For example, if you have `assets/my_sprite.png`, this could be the metadata stored at `assets/my_sprite.png.meta`. Meta files are totally optional. If no metadata exists, the default settings will be used. In short, this file says "load this asset with the ImageLoader and use the file extension to determine the image type". This type of meta file is supported in all AssetPlugin modes. If in `Unprocessed` mode, the asset (with the meta settings) will be loaded directly. If in `ProcessedDev` mode, the asset file will be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder. The meta will also be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder, but with one addition: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 12415480888597742505, full_hash: 14344495437905856884, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` `processed_info` contains `hash` (a direct hash of the asset and meta bytes), `full_hash` (a hash of `hash` and the hashes of all `process_dependencies`), and `process_dependencies` (the `path` and `full_hash` of every process_dependency). A "process dependency" is an asset dependency that is _directly_ used when processing the asset. Images do not have process dependencies, so this is empty. When the processor is enabled, you can use the `Process` metadata config: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Process( processor: "bevy_asset::processor::process::LoadAndSave<bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader, bevy_render::texture::compressed_image_saver::CompressedImageSaver>", settings: ( loader_settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), saver_settings: ( generate_mipmaps: true, ), ), ), ) ``` This configures the asset to use the `LoadAndSave` processor, which runs an AssetLoader and feeds the result into an AssetSaver (which saves the given Asset and defines a loader to load it with). (for terseness LoadAndSave will likely get a shorter/friendlier type name when [Stable Type Paths](#7184) lands). `LoadAndSave` is likely to be the most common processor type, but arbitrary processors are supported. `CompressedImageSaver` saves an `Image` in the Basis Universal format and configures the ImageLoader to load it as basis universal. The `AssetProcessor` will read this meta, run it through the LoadAndSave processor, and write the basis-universal version of the image to `.imported_assets`. The final metadata will look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 905599590923828066, full_hash: 9948823010183819117, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: Format(Basis), ), ), ) ``` To try basis-universal processing out in Bevy examples, (for example `sprite.rs`), change `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)` to `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev()))` and run with the `basis-universal` feature enabled: `cargo run --features=basis-universal --example sprite`. To create a custom processor, there are two main paths: 1. Use the `LoadAndSave` processor with an existing `AssetLoader`. Implement the `AssetSaver` trait, register the processor using `asset_processor.register_processor::<LoadAndSave<ImageLoader, CompressedImageSaver>>(image_saver.into())`. 2. Implement the `Process` trait directly and register it using: `asset_processor.register_processor(thing_processor)`. You can configure default processors for file extensions like this: ```rust asset_processor.set_default_processor::<ThingProcessor>("thing") ``` There is one more metadata type to be aware of: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Ignore, ) ``` This will ignore the asset during processing / prevent it from being written to `.imported_assets`. The AssetProcessor stores a transaction log at `.imported_assets/log` and uses it to gracefully recover from unexpected stops. This means you can force-quit the processor (and Bevy Apps running the processor in parallel) at arbitrary times! `.imported_assets` is "local state". It should _not_ be checked into source control. It should also be considered "read only". In practice, you _can_ modify processed assets and processed metadata if you really need to test something. But those modifications will not be represented in the hashes of the assets, so the processed state will be "out of sync" with the source assets. The processor _will not_ fix this for you. Either revert the change after you have tested it, or delete the processed files so they can be re-populated. ## Open Questions There are a number of open questions to be discussed. We should decide if they need to be addressed in this PR and if so, how we will address them: ### Implied Dependencies vs Dependency Enumeration There are currently two ways to populate asset dependencies: * **Implied via AssetLoaders**: if an AssetLoader loads an asset (and retrieves a handle), a dependency is added to the list. * **Explicit via the optional Asset::visit_dependencies**: if `server.load_asset(my_asset)` is called, it will call `my_asset.visit_dependencies`, which will grab dependencies that have been manually defined for the asset via the Asset trait impl (which can be derived). This means that defining explicit dependencies is optional for "loaded assets". And the list of dependencies is always accurate because loaders can only produce Handles if they register dependencies. If an asset was loaded with an AssetLoader, it only uses the implied dependencies. If an asset was created at runtime and added with `asset_server.load_asset(MyAsset)`, it will use `Asset::visit_dependencies`. However this can create a behavior mismatch between loaded assets and equivalent "created at runtime" assets if `Assets::visit_dependencies` doesn't exactly match the dependencies produced by the AssetLoader. This behavior mismatch can be resolved by completely removing "implied loader dependencies" and requiring `Asset::visit_dependencies` to supply dependency data. But this creates two problems: * It makes defining loaded assets harder and more error prone: Devs must remember to manually annotate asset dependencies with `#[dependency]` when deriving `Asset`. For more complicated assets (such as scenes), the derive likely wouldn't be sufficient and a manual `visit_dependencies` impl would be required. * Removes the ability to immediately kick off dependency loads: When AssetLoaders retrieve a Handle, they also immediately kick off an asset load for the handle, which means it can start loading in parallel _before_ the asset finishes loading. For large assets, this could be significant. (although this could be mitigated for processed assets if we store dependencies in the processed meta file and load them ahead of time) ### Eager ProcessorDev Asset Loading I made a controversial call in the interest of fast startup times ("time to first pixel") for the "processor dev mode configuration". When initializing the AssetProcessor, current processed versions of unchanged assets are yielded immediately, even if their dependencies haven't been checked yet for reprocessing. This means that non-current-state-of-filesystem-but-previously-valid assets might be returned to the App first, then hot-reloaded if/when their dependencies change and the asset is reprocessed. Is this behavior desirable? There is largely one alternative: do not yield an asset from the processor to the app until all of its dependencies have been checked for changes. In some common cases (load dependency has not changed since last run) this will increase startup time. The main question is "by how much" and is that slower startup time worth it in the interest of only yielding assets that are true to the current state of the filesystem. Should this be configurable? I'm starting to think we should only yield an asset after its (historical) dependencies have been checked for changes + processed as necessary, but I'm curious what you all think. ### Paths Are Currently The Only Canonical ID / Do We Want Asset UUIDs? In this implementation AssetPaths are the only canonical asset identifier (just like the previous Bevy Asset system and Godot). Moving assets will result in re-scans (and currently reprocessing, although reprocessing can easily be avoided with some changes). Asset renames/moves will break code and assets that rely on specific paths, unless those paths are fixed up. Do we want / need "stable asset uuids"? Introducing them is very possible: 1. Generate a UUID and include it in .meta files 2. Support UUID in AssetPath 3. Generate "asset indices" which are loaded on startup and map UUIDs to paths. 4 (maybe). Consider only supporting UUIDs for processed assets so we can generate quick-to-load indices instead of scanning meta files. The main "pro" is that assets referencing UUIDs don't need to be migrated when a path changes. The main "con" is that UUIDs cannot be "lazily resolved" like paths. They need a full view of all assets to answer the question "does this UUID exist". Which means UUIDs require the AssetProcessor to fully finish startup scans before saying an asset doesnt exist. And they essentially require asset pre-processing to use in apps, because scanning all asset metadata files at runtime to resolve a UUID is not viable for medium-to-large apps. It really requires a pre-generated UUID index, which must be loaded before querying for assets. I personally think this should be investigated in a separate PR. Paths aren't going anywhere ... _everyone_ uses filesystems (and filesystem-like apis) to manage their asset source files. I consider them permanent canonical asset information. Additionally, they behave well for both processed and unprocessed asset modes. Given that Bevy is supporting both, this feels like the right canonical ID to start with. UUIDS (and maybe even other indexed-identifier types) can be added later as necessary. ### Folder / File Naming Conventions All asset processing config currently lives in the `.imported_assets` folder. The processor transaction log is in `.imported_assets/log`. Processed assets are added to `.imported_assets/Default`, which will make migrating to processed asset profiles (ex: a `.imported_assets/Mobile` profile) a non-breaking change. It also allows us to create top-level files like `.imported_assets/log` without it being interpreted as an asset. Meta files currently have a `.meta` suffix. Do we like these names and conventions? ### Should the `AssetPlugin::processed_dev` configuration enable `watch_for_changes` automatically? Currently it does (which I think makes sense), but it does make it the only configuration that enables watch_for_changes by default. ### Discuss on_loaded High Level Interface: This PR includes a very rough "proof of concept" `on_loaded` system adapter that uses the `LoadedWithDependencies` event in combination with `asset_server.load_asset` dependency tracking to support this pattern ```rust fn main() { App::new() .init_asset::<MyAssets>() .add_systems(Update, on_loaded(create_array_texture)) .run(); } #[derive(Asset, Clone)] struct MyAssets { #[dependency] picture_of_my_cat: Handle<Image>, #[dependency] picture_of_my_other_cat: Handle<Image>, } impl FromWorld for ArrayTexture { fn from_world(world: &mut World) -> Self { picture_of_my_cat: server.load("meow.png"), picture_of_my_other_cat: server.load("meeeeeeeow.png"), } } fn spawn_cat(In(my_assets): In<MyAssets>, mut commands: Commands) { commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_cat.clone(), ..default() }); commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_other_cat.clone(), ..default() }); } ``` The implementation is _very_ rough. And it is currently unsafe because `bevy_ecs` doesn't expose some internals to do this safely from inside `bevy_asset`. There are plenty of unanswered questions like: * "do we add a Loadable" derive? (effectively automate the FromWorld implementation above) * Should `MyAssets` even be an Asset? (largely implemented this way because it elegantly builds on `server.load_asset(MyAsset { .. })` dependency tracking). We should think hard about what our ideal API looks like (and if this is a pattern we want to support). Not necessarily something we need to solve in this PR. The current `on_loaded` impl should probably be removed from this PR before merging. ## Clarifying Questions ### What about Assets as Entities? This Bevy Asset V2 proposal implementation initially stored Assets as ECS Entities. Instead of `AssetId<T>` + the `Assets<T>` resource it used `Entity` as the asset id and Asset values were just ECS components. There are plenty of compelling reasons to do this: 1. Easier to inline assets in Bevy Scenes (as they are "just" normal entities + components) 2. More flexible queries: use the power of the ECS to filter assets (ex: `Query<Mesh, With<Tree>>`). 3. Extensible. Users can add arbitrary component data to assets. 4. Things like "component visualization tools" work out of the box to visualize asset data. However Assets as Entities has a ton of caveats right now: * We need to be able to allocate entity ids without a direct World reference (aka rework id allocator in Entities ... i worked around this in my prototypes by just pre allocating big chunks of entities) * We want asset change events in addition to ECS change tracking ... how do we populate them when mutations can come from anywhere? Do we use Changed queries? This would require iterating over the change data for all assets every frame. Is this acceptable or should we implement a new "event based" component change detection option? * Reconciling manually created assets with asset-system managed assets has some nuance (ex: are they "loaded" / do they also have that component metadata?) * "how do we handle "static" / default entity handles" (ties in to the Entity Indices discussion: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/8319). This is necessary for things like "built in" assets and default handles in things like SpriteBundle. * Storing asset information as a component makes it easy to "invalidate" asset state by removing the component (or forcing modifications). Ideally we have ways to lock this down (some combination of Rust type privacy and ECS validation) In practice, how we store and identify assets is a reasonably superficial change (porting off of Assets as Entities and implementing dedicated storage + ids took less than a day). So once we sort out the remaining challenges the flip should be straightforward. Additionally, I do still have "Assets as Entities" in my commit history, so we can reuse that work. I personally think "assets as entities" is a good endgame, but it also doesn't provide _significant_ value at the moment and it certainly isn't ready yet with the current state of things. ### Why not Distill? [Distill](https://github.com/amethyst/distill) is a high quality fully featured asset system built in Rust. It is very natural to ask "why not just use Distill?". It is also worth calling out that for awhile, [we planned on adopting Distill / I signed off on it](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/708). However I think Bevy has a number of constraints that make Distill adoption suboptimal: * **Architectural Simplicity:** * Distill's processor requires an in-memory database (lmdb) and RPC networked API (using Cap'n Proto). Each of these introduces API complexity that increases maintenance burden and "code grokability". Ignoring tests, documentation, and examples, Distill has 24,237 lines of Rust code (including generated code for RPC + database interactions). If you ignore generated code, it has 11,499 lines. * Bevy builds the AssetProcessor and AssetServer using pluggable AssetReader/AssetWriter Rust traits with simple io interfaces. They do not necessitate databases or RPC interfaces (although Readers/Writers could use them if that is desired). Bevy Asset V2 (at the time of writing this PR) is 5,384 lines of Rust code (ignoring tests, documentation, and examples). Grain of salt: Distill does have more features currently (ex: Asset Packing, GUIDS, remote-out-of-process asset processor). I do plan to implement these features in Bevy Asset V2 and I personally highly doubt they will meaningfully close the 6115 lines-of-code gap. * This complexity gap (which while illustrated by lines of code, is much bigger than just that) is noteworthy to me. Bevy should be hackable and there are pillars of Distill that are very hard to understand and extend. This is a matter of opinion (and Bevy Asset V2 also has complicated areas), but I think Bevy Asset V2 is much more approachable for the average developer. * Necessary disclaimer: counting lines of code is an extremely rough complexity metric. Read the code and form your own opinions. * **Optional Asset Processing:** Not all Bevy Apps (or Bevy App developers) need / want asset preprocessing. Processing increases the complexity of the development environment by introducing things like meta files, imported asset storage, running processors in the background, waiting for processing to finish, etc. Distill _requires_ preprocessing to work. With Bevy Asset V2 processing is fully opt-in. The AssetServer isn't directly aware of asset processors at all. AssetLoaders only care about converting bytes to runtime Assets ... they don't know or care if the bytes were pre-processed or not. Processing is "elegantly" (forgive my self-congratulatory phrasing) layered on top and builds on the existing Asset system primitives. * **Direct Filesystem Access to Processed Asset State:** Distill stores processed assets in a database. This makes debugging / inspecting the processed outputs harder (either requires special tooling to query the database or they need to be "deployed" to be inspected). Bevy Asset V2, on the other hand, stores processed assets in the filesystem (by default ... this is configurable). This makes interacting with the processed state more natural. Note that both Godot and Unity's new asset system store processed assets in the filesystem. * **Portability**: Because Distill's processor uses lmdb and RPC networking, it cannot be run on certain platforms (ex: lmdb is a non-rust dependency that cannot run on the web, some platforms don't support running network servers). Bevy should be able to process assets everywhere (ex: run the Bevy Editor on the web, compile + process shaders on mobile, etc). Distill does partially mitigate this problem by supporting "streaming" assets via the RPC protocol, but this is not a full solve from my perspective. And Bevy Asset V2 can (in theory) also stream assets (without requiring RPC, although this isn't implemented yet) Note that I _do_ still think Distill would be a solid asset system for Bevy. But I think the approach in this PR is a better solve for Bevy's specific "asset system requirements". ### Doesn't async-fs just shim requests to "sync" `std::fs`? What is the point? "True async file io" has limited / spotty platform support. async-fs (and the rust async ecosystem generally ... ex Tokio) currently use async wrappers over std::fs that offload blocking requests to separate threads. This may feel unsatisfying, but it _does_ still provide value because it prevents our task pools from blocking on file system operations (which would prevent progress when there are many tasks to do, but all threads in a pool are currently blocking on file system ops). Additionally, using async APIs for our AssetReaders and AssetWriters also provides value because we can later add support for "true async file io" for platforms that support it. _And_ we can implement other "true async io" asset backends (such as networked asset io). ## Draft TODO - [x] Fill in missing filesystem event APIs: file removed event (which is expressed as dangling RenameFrom events in some cases), file/folder renamed event - [x] Assets without loaders are not moved to the processed folder. This breaks things like referenced `.bin` files for GLTFs. This should be configurable per-non-asset-type. - [x] Initial implementation of Reflect and FromReflect for Handle. The "deserialization" parity bar is low here as this only worked with static UUIDs in the old impl ... this is a non-trivial problem. Either we add a Handle::AssetPath variant that gets "upgraded" to a strong handle on scene load or we use a separate AssetRef type for Bevy scenes (which is converted to a runtime Handle on load). This deserves its own discussion in a different pr. - [x] Populate read_asset_bytes hash when run by the processor (a bit of a special case .. when run by the processor the processed meta will contain the hash so we don't need to compute it on the spot, but we don't want/need to read the meta when run by the main AssetServer) - [x] Delay hot reloading: currently filesystem events are handled immediately, which creates timing issues in some cases. For example hot reloading images can sometimes break because the image isn't finished writing. We should add a delay, likely similar to the [implementation in this PR](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8503). - [x] Port old platform-specific AssetIo implementations to the new AssetReader interface (currently missing Android and web) - [x] Resolve on_loaded unsafety (either by removing the API entirely or removing the unsafe) - [x] Runtime loader setting overrides - [x] Remove remaining unwraps that should be error-handled. There are number of TODOs here - [x] Pretty AssetPath Display impl - [x] Document more APIs - [x] Resolve spurious "reloading because it has changed" events (to repro run load_gltf with `processed_dev()`) - [x] load_dependency hot reloading currently only works for processed assets. If processing is disabled, load_dependency changes are not hot reloaded. - [x] Replace AssetInfo dependency load/fail counters with `loading_dependencies: HashSet<UntypedAssetId>` to prevent reloads from (potentially) breaking counters. Storing this will also enable "dependency reloaded" events (see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [x] Re-add filesystem watcher cargo feature gate (currently it is not optional) - [ ] Migration Guide - [ ] Changelog ## Followup TODO - [ ] Replace "eager unchanged processed asset loading" behavior with "don't returned unchanged processed asset until dependencies have been checked". - [ ] Add true `Ignore` AssetAction that does not copy the asset to the imported_assets folder. - [ ] Finish "live asset unloading" (ex: free up CPU asset memory after uploading an image to the GPU), rethink RenderAssets, and port renderer features. The `Assets` collection uses `Option<T>` for asset storage to support its removal. (1) the Option might not actually be necessary ... might be able to just remove from the collection entirely (2) need to finalize removal apis - [ ] Try replacing the "channel based" asset id recycling with something a bit more efficient (ex: we might be able to use raw atomic ints with some cleverness) - [ ] Consider adding UUIDs to processed assets (scoped just to helping identify moved assets ... not exposed to load queries ... see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [ ] Store "last modified" source asset and meta timestamps in processed meta files to enable skipping expensive hashing when the file wasn't changed - [ ] Fix "slow loop" handle drop fix - [ ] Migrate to TypeName - [x] Handle "loader preregistration". See #9429 ## Next Steps * **Configurable per-type defaults for AssetMeta**: It should be possible to add configuration like "all png image meta should default to using nearest sampling" (currently this hard-coded per-loader/processor Settings::default() impls). Also see the "Folder Meta" bullet point. * **Avoid Reprocessing on Asset Renames / Moves**: See the "canonical asset ids" discussion in [Open Questions](#open-questions) and the relevant bullet point in [Draft TODO](#draft-todo). Even without canonical ids, folder renames could avoid reprocessing in some cases. * **Multiple Asset Sources**: Expand AssetPath to support "asset source names" and support multiple AssetReaders in the asset server (ex: `webserver://some_path/image.png` backed by an Http webserver AssetReader). The "default" asset reader would use normal `some_path/image.png` paths. Ideally this works in combination with multiple AssetWatchers for hot-reloading * **Stable Type Names**: this pr removes the TypeUuid requirement from assets in favor of `std::any::type_name`. This makes defining assets easier (no need to generate a new uuid / use weird proc macro syntax). It also makes reading meta files easier (because things have "friendly names"). We also use type names for components in scene files. If they are good enough for components, they are good enough for assets. And consistency across Bevy pillars is desirable. However, `std::any::type_name` is not guaranteed to be stable (although in practice it is). We've developed a [stable type path](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7184) to resolve this, which should be adopted when it is ready. * **Command Line Interface**: It should be possible to run the asset processor in a separate process from the command line. This will also require building a network-server-backed AssetReader to communicate between the app and the processor. We've been planning to build a "bevy cli" for awhile. This seems like a good excuse to build it. * **Asset Packing**: This is largely an additive feature, so it made sense to me to punt this until we've laid the foundations in this PR. * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: It should be possible to generate assets for multiple platforms by supporting multiple "processor profiles" per asset (ex: compress with format X on PC and Y on iOS). I think there should probably be arbitrary "profiles" (which can be separate from actual platforms), which are then assigned to a given platform when generating the final asset distribution for that platform. Ex: maybe devs want a "Mobile" profile that is shared between iOS and Android. Or a "LowEnd" profile shared between web and mobile. * **Versioning and Migrations**: Assets, Loaders, Savers, and Processors need to have versions to determine if their schema is valid. If an asset / loader version is incompatible with the current version expected at runtime, the processor should be able to migrate them. I think we should try using Bevy Reflect for this, as it would allow us to load the old version as a dynamic Reflect type without actually having the old Rust type. It would also allow us to define "patches" to migrate between versions (Bevy Reflect devs are currently working on patching). The `.meta` file already has its own format version. Migrating that to new versions should also be possible. * **Real Copy-on-write AssetPaths**: Rust's actual Cow (clone-on-write type) currently used by AssetPath can still result in String clones that aren't actually necessary (cloning an Owned Cow clones the contents). Bevy's asset system requires cloning AssetPaths in a number of places, which result in actual clones of the internal Strings. This is not efficient. AssetPath internals should be reworked to exhibit truer cow-like-behavior that reduces String clones to the absolute minimum. * **Consider processor-less processing**: In theory the AssetServer could run processors "inline" even if the background AssetProcessor is disabled. If we decide this is actually desirable, we could add this. But I don't think its a priority in the short or medium term. * **Pre-emptive dependency loading**: We could encode dependencies in processed meta files, which could then be used by the Asset Server to kick of dependency loads as early as possible (prior to starting the actual asset load). Is this desirable? How much time would this save in practice? * **Optimize Processor With UntypedAssetIds**: The processor exclusively uses AssetPath to identify assets currently. It might be possible to swap these out for UntypedAssetIds in some places, which are smaller / cheaper to hash and compare. * **One to Many Asset Processing**: An asset source file that produces many assets currently must be processed into a single "processed" asset source. If labeled assets can be written separately they can each have their own configured savers _and_ they could be loaded more granularly. Definitely worth exploring! * **Automatically Track "Runtime-only" Asset Dependencies**: Right now, tracking "created at runtime" asset dependencies requires adding them via `asset_server.load_asset(StandardMaterial::default())`. I think with some cleverness we could also do this for `materials.add(StandardMaterial::default())`, making tracking work "everywhere". There are challenges here relating to change detection / ensuring the server is made aware of dependency changes. This could be expensive in some cases. * **"Dependency Changed" events**: Some assets have runtime artifacts that need to be re-generated when one of their dependencies change (ex: regenerate a material's bind group when a Texture needs to change). We are generating the dependency graph so we can definitely produce these events. Buuuuut generating these events will have a cost / they could be high frequency for some assets, so we might want this to be opt-in for specific cases. * **Investigate Storing More Information In Handles**: Handles can now store arbitrary information, which makes it cheaper and easier to access. How much should we move into them? Canonical asset load states (via atomics)? (`handle.is_loaded()` would be very cool). Should we store the entire asset and remove the `Assets<T>` collection? (`Arc<RwLock<Option<Image>>>`?) * **Support processing and loading files without extensions**: This is a pretty arbitrary restriction and could be supported with very minimal changes. * **Folder Meta**: It would be nice if we could define per folder processor configuration defaults (likely in a `.meta` or `.folder_meta` file). Things like "default to linear filtering for all Images in this folder". * **Replace async_broadcast with event-listener?** This might be approximately drop-in for some uses and it feels more light weight * **Support Running the AssetProcessor on the Web**: Most of the hard work is done here, but there are some easy straggling TODOs (make the transaction log an interface instead of a direct file writer so we can write a web storage backend, implement an AssetReader/AssetWriter that reads/writes to something like LocalStorage). * **Consider identifying and preventing circular dependencies**: This is especially important for "processor dependencies", as processing will silently never finish in these cases. * **Built-in/Inlined Asset Hot Reloading**: This PR regresses "built-in/inlined" asset hot reloading (previously provided by the DebugAssetServer). I'm intentionally punting this because I think it can be cleanly implemented with "multiple asset sources" by registering a "debug asset source" (ex: `debug://bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl` asset paths) in combination with an AssetWatcher for that asset source and support for "manually loading pats with asset bytes instead of AssetReaders". The old DebugAssetServer was quite nasty and I'd love to avoid that hackery going forward. * **Investigate ways to remove double-parsing meta files**: Parsing meta files currently involves parsing once with "minimal" versions of the meta file to extract the type name of the loader/processor config, then parsing again to parse the "full" meta. This is suboptimal. We should be able to define custom deserializers that (1) assume the loader/processor type name comes first (2) dynamically looks up the loader/processor registrations to deserialize settings in-line (similar to components in the bevy scene format). Another alternative: deserialize as dynamic Reflect objects and then convert. * **More runtime loading configuration**: Support using the Handle type as a hint to select an asset loader (instead of relying on AssetPath extensions) * **More high level Processor trait implementations**: For example, it might be worth adding support for arbitrary chains of "asset transforms" that modify an in-memory asset representation between loading and saving. (ex: load a Mesh, run a `subdivide_mesh` transform, followed by a `flip_normals` transform, then save the mesh to an efficient compressed format). * **Bevy Scene Handle Deserialization**: (see the relevant [Draft TODO item](#draft-todo) for context) * **Explore High Level Load Interfaces**: See [this discussion](#discuss-on_loaded-high-level-interface) for one prototype. * **Asset Streaming**: It would be great if we could stream Assets (ex: stream a long video file piece by piece) * **ID Exchanging**: In this PR Asset Handles/AssetIds are bigger than they need to be because they have a Uuid enum variant. If we implement an "id exchanging" system that trades Uuids for "efficient runtime ids", we can cut down on the size of AssetIds, making them more efficient. This has some open design questions, such as how to spawn entities with "default" handle values (as these wouldn't have access to the exchange api in the current system). * **Asset Path Fixup Tooling**: Assets that inline asset paths inside them will break when an asset moves. The asset system provides the functionality to detect when paths break. We should build a framework that enables formats to define "path migrations". This is especially important for scene files. For editor-generated files, we should also consider using UUIDs (see other bullet point) to avoid the need to migrate in these cases. --------- Co-authored-by: BeastLe9enD <beastle9end@outlook.de> Co-authored-by: Mike <mike.hsu@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com> |

Use instancing for sprites (#9597)
# Objective - Supercedes #8872 - Improve sprite rendering performance after the regression in #9236 ## Solution - Use an instance-rate vertex buffer to store per-instance data. - Store color, UV offset and scale, and a transform per instance. - Convert Sprite rect, custom_size, anchor, and flip_x/_y to an affine 3x4 matrix and store the transpose of that in the per-instance data. This is similar to how MeshUniform uses transpose affine matrices. - Use a special index buffer that has batches of 6 indices referencing 4 vertices. The lower 2 bits indicate the x and y of a quad such that the corners are: ``` 10 11 00 01 ``` UVs are implicit but get modified by UV offset and scale The remaining upper bits contain the instance index. ## Benchmarks I will compare versus `main` before #9236 because the results should be as good as or faster than that. Running `bevymark -- 10000 16` on an M1 Max with `main` at `e8b38925` in yellow, this PR in red:  Looking at the median frame times, that's a 37% reduction from before. --- ## Changelog - Changed: Improved sprite rendering performance by leveraging an instance-rate vertex buffer. --------- Co-authored-by: Giacomo Stevanato <giaco.stevanato@gmail.com> |

Add GpuArrayBuffer and BatchedUniformBuffer (#8204)
# Objective - Add a type for uploading a Rust `Vec<T>` to a GPU `array<T>`. - Makes progress towards https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/89. ## Solution - Port @superdump's `BatchedUniformBuffer` to bevy main, as a fallback for WebGL2, which doesn't support storage buffers. - Rather than getting an `array<T>` in a shader, you get an `array<T, N>`, and have to rebind every N elements via dynamic offsets. - Add `GpuArrayBuffer` to abstract over `StorageBuffer<Vec<T>>`/`BatchedUniformBuffer`. ## Future Work Add a shader macro kinda thing to abstract over the following automatically: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8204#pullrequestreview-1396911727 --- ## Changelog * Added `GpuArrayBuffer`, `GpuComponentArrayBufferPlugin`, `GpuArrayBufferable`, and `GpuArrayBufferIndex` types. * Added `DynamicUniformBuffer::new_with_alignment()`. --------- Co-authored-by: Robert Swain <robert.swain@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: François <mockersf@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Teodor Tanasoaia <28601907+teoxoy@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: IceSentry <IceSentry@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Vincent <9408210+konsolas@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: robtfm <50659922+robtfm@users.noreply.github.com> |

fix module name for AssetPath shaders (#9186)
# Objective AssetPath shader imports check if the shader is added using the path without quotes. this causes them to be re-added even if already present, which can cause previous dependents to get unloaded leading to a "missing import" error. ## Solution fix the module name of AssetPath shaders used for checking if it's already added to correctly use the quoted name. |

improve shader import model (#5703)
# Objective operate on naga IR directly to improve handling of shader modules. - give codespan reporting into imported modules - allow glsl to be used from wgsl and vice-versa the ultimate objective is to make it possible to - provide user hooks for core shader functions (to modify light behaviour within the standard pbr pipeline, for example) - make automatic binding slot allocation possible but ... since this is already big, adds some value and (i think) is at feature parity with the existing code, i wanted to push this now. ## Solution i made a crate called naga_oil (https://github.com/robtfm/naga_oil - unpublished for now, could be part of bevy) which manages modules by - building each module independantly to naga IR - creating "header" files for each supported language, which are used to build dependent modules/shaders - make final shaders by combining the shader IR with the IR for imported modules then integrated this into bevy, replacing some of the existing shader processing stuff. also reworked examples to reflect this. ## Migration Guide shaders that don't use `#import` directives should work without changes. the most notable user-facing difference is that imported functions/variables/etc need to be qualified at point of use, and there's no "leakage" of visible stuff into your shader scope from the imports of your imports, so if you used things imported by your imports, you now need to import them directly and qualify them. the current strategy of including/'spreading' `mesh_vertex_output` directly into a struct doesn't work any more, so these need to be modified as per the examples (e.g. color_material.wgsl, or many others). mesh data is assumed to be in bindgroup 2 by default, if mesh data is bound into bindgroup 1 instead then the shader def `MESH_BINDGROUP_1` needs to be added to the pipeline shader_defs. |

Fix AsBindGroup derive, texture attribute, visibility flag parsing (#8868)
# Objective - Fix the AsBindGroup texture attribute visibility flag parsing - This appears to have been caused by a syn crate update which then the visibility code got updated - Also I noticed that by default the vertex and fragment flags were on, so visibility(compute) would actually make the texture visible to vertex, fragment and compute shaders, I fixed this too ## Solution - Update flag parsing to use MetaList.parse_nested_meta function, which loads the flags into a Vec then loop through those flags - Change initial visibility flags to use VisibilityFlags::default() rather than VisibilityFlags::vertex_fragment() |

reflect: stable type path v2 (#7184)
# Objective
- Introduce a stable alternative to
[`std::any::type_name`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/any/fn.type_name.html).
- Rewrite of #5805 with heavy inspiration in design.
- On the path to #5830.
- Part of solving #3327.
## Solution
- Add a `TypePath` trait for static stable type path/name information.
- Add a `TypePath` derive macro.
- Add a `impl_type_path` macro for implementing internal and foreign
types in `bevy_reflect`.
---
## Changelog
- Added `TypePath` trait.
- Added `DynamicTypePath` trait and `get_type_path` method to `Reflect`.
- Added a `TypePath` derive macro.
- Added a `bevy_reflect::impl_type_path` for implementing `TypePath` on
internal and foreign types in `bevy_reflect`.
- Changed `bevy_reflect::utility::(Non)GenericTypeInfoCell` to
`(Non)GenericTypedCell<T>` which allows us to be generic over both
`TypeInfo` and `TypePath`.
- `TypePath` is now a supertrait of `Asset`, `Material` and
`Material2d`.
- `impl_reflect_struct` needs a `#[type_path = "..."]` attribute to be
specified.
- `impl_reflect_value` needs to either specify path starting with a
double colon (`::core::option::Option`) or an `in my_crate::foo`
declaration.
- Added `bevy_reflect_derive::ReflectTypePath`.
- Most uses of `Ident` in `bevy_reflect_derive` changed to use
`ReflectTypePath`.
## Migration Guide
- Implementors of `Asset`, `Material` and `Material2d` now also need to
derive `TypePath`.
- Manual implementors of `Reflect` will need to implement the new
`get_type_path` method.
## Open Questions
- [x] ~This PR currently does not migrate any usages of
`std::any::type_name` to use `bevy_reflect::TypePath` to ease the review
process. Should it?~ Migration will be left to a follow-up PR.
- [ ] This PR adds a lot of `#[derive(TypePath)]` and `T: TypePath` to
satisfy new bounds, mostly when deriving `TypeUuid`. Should we make
`TypePath` a supertrait of `TypeUuid`? [Should we remove `TypeUuid` in
favour of
`TypePath`?](

Added Vec append to BufferVec - Issue #3531 (#8575)
# Objective - Fixes #3531 ## Solution - Added an append wrapper to BufferVec based on the function signature for vec.append() --- First PR to Bevy. I didn't see any tests for other BufferVec methods (could have missed them) and currently this method is not used anywhere in the project. Let me know if there are tests to add or if I should find somewhere to use append so it is not dead code. The issue mentions implementing `truncate` and `extend` which were already implemented and merged [here](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/6833/files#diff-c8fb332382379e383f1811e30c31991b1e0feb38ca436c357971755368012ced) |

Webgpu support (#8336)
# Objective - Support WebGPU - alternative to #5027 that doesn't need any async / await - fixes #8315 - Surprise fix #7318 ## Solution ### For async renderer initialisation - Update the plugin lifecycle: - app builds the plugin - calls `plugin.build` - registers the plugin - app starts the event loop - event loop waits for `ready` of all registered plugins in the same order - returns `true` by default - then call all `finish` then all `cleanup` in the same order as registered - then execute the schedule In the case of the renderer, to avoid anything async: - building the renderer plugin creates a detached task that will send back the initialised renderer through a mutex in a resource - `ready` will wait for the renderer to be present in the resource - `finish` will take that renderer and place it in the expected resources by other plugins - other plugins (that expect the renderer to be available) `finish` are called and they are able to set up their pipelines - `cleanup` is called, only custom one is still for pipeline rendering ### For WebGPU support - update the `build-wasm-example` script to support passing `--api webgpu` that will build the example with WebGPU support - feature for webgl2 was always enabled when building for wasm. it's now in the default feature list and enabled on all platforms, so check for this feature must also check that the target_arch is `wasm32` --- ## Migration Guide - `Plugin::setup` has been renamed `Plugin::cleanup` - `Plugin::finish` has been added, and plugins adding pipelines should do it in this function instead of `Plugin::build` ```rust // Before impl Plugin for MyPlugin { fn build(&self, app: &mut App) { app.insert_resource::<MyResource> .add_systems(Update, my_system); let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) { Ok(render_app) => render_app, Err(_) => return, }; render_app .init_resource::<RenderResourceNeedingDevice>() .init_resource::<OtherRenderResource>(); } } // After impl Plugin for MyPlugin { fn build(&self, app: &mut App) { app.insert_resource::<MyResource> .add_systems(Update, my_system); let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) { Ok(render_app) => render_app, Err(_) => return, }; render_app .init_resource::<OtherRenderResource>(); } fn finish(&self, app: &mut App) { let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) { Ok(render_app) => render_app, Err(_) => return, }; render_app .init_resource::<RenderResourceNeedingDevice>(); } } ``` |

# Objective Fixes #8284. `values` is being pushed to separately from the actual scratch buffer in `DynamicUniformBuffer::push` and `DynamicStorageBuffer::push`. In both types, `values` is really only used to track the number of elements being added to the buffer, yet is causing extra allocations, size increments and excess copies. ## Solution Remove it and its remaining uses. Replace it with accesses to `scratch` instead. I removed the `len` accessor, as it may be non-trivial to compute just from `scratch`. If this is still desirable to have, we can keep a `len` member field to track it instead of relying on `scratch`. |

Fix performance regression with shadow mapping (#7914)
# Objective - @mockersf identified a performance regression of about 25% longer frame times introduced by #7784 in a complex scene with the Amazon Lumberyard bistro scene with both exterior and interior variants and a number of point lights with shadow mapping enabled - The additional time seemed to be spent in the `ShadowPassNode` - `ShadowPassNode` encodes the draw commands for the shadow phase. Roughly the same numbers of entities were having draw commands encoded, so something about the way they were being encoded had changed. - One thing that definitely changed was that the pipeline used will be different depending on the alpha mode, and the scene has lots entities with opaque and blend materials. This suggested that maybe the pipeline was changing a lot so I tried a quick hack to see if it was the problem. ## Solution - Sort the shadow phase items by their pipeline id - This groups phase items by their pipeline id, which significantly reduces pipeline rebinding required to the point that the performance regression was gone. |

Only execute #define if current scope is accepting lines (#7798)
# Objective While working on #7784, I noticed that a `#define VAR` in a `.wgsl` file is always effective, even if it its scope is not accepting lines. Example: ```c #define A #ifndef A #define B #endif ``` Currently, `B` will be defined although it shouldn't. This PR fixes that. ## Solution Move the branch responsible for `#define` lines into the last else branch, which is only evaluated if the current scope is accepting lines. |

Support raw buffers in AsBindGroup macro (#7701)
# Objective There was PR that introduced support for storage buffer is `AsBindGroup` macro [#6129](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/6129), but it does not give more granular control over storage buffer, it will always copy all the data no matter which part of it was updated. There is also currently another open PR #6669 that tries to achieve exactly that, it is just not up to date and seems abandoned (Sorry if that is not right). In this PR I'm proposing a solution for both of these approaches to co-exist using `#[storage(n, buffer)]` and `#[storage(n)]` to distinguish between the cases. We could also discuss in this PR if there is a need to extend this support to DynamicBuffers as well. |

Add push contant config to layout (#7681)
# Objective Allow for creating pipelines that use push constants. To be able to use push constants. Fixes #4825 As of right now, trying to call `RenderPass::set_push_constants` will trigger the following error: ``` thread 'main' panicked at 'wgpu error: Validation Error Caused by: In a RenderPass note: encoder = `<CommandBuffer-(0, 59, Vulkan)>` In a set_push_constant command provided push constant is for stage(s) VERTEX | FRAGMENT | VERTEX_FRAGMENT, however the pipeline layout has no push constant range for the stage(s) VERTEX | FRAGMENT | VERTEX_FRAGMENT ``` ## Solution Add a field push_constant_ranges to` RenderPipelineDescriptor` and `ComputePipelineDescriptor`. This PR supersedes #4908 which now contains merge conflicts due to significant changes to `bevy_render`. Meanwhile, this PR also made the `layout` field of `RenderPipelineDescriptor` and `ComputePipelineDescriptor` non-optional. If the user do not need to specify the bind group layouts, they can simply supply an empty vector here. No need for it to be optional. --- ## Changelog - Add a field push_constant_ranges to RenderPipelineDescriptor and ComputePipelineDescriptor - Made the `layout` field of RenderPipelineDescriptor and ComputePipelineDescriptor non-optional. ## Migration Guide - Add push_constant_ranges: Vec::new() to every `RenderPipelineDescriptor` and `ComputePipelineDescriptor` - Unwrap the optional values on the `layout` field of `RenderPipelineDescriptor` and `ComputePipelineDescriptor`. If the descriptor has no layout, supply an empty vector. Co-authored-by: Zhixing Zhang <me@neoto.xin> |

remove potential ub in render_resource_wrapper (#7279)
# Objective [as noted](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/5950#discussion_r1080762807) by james, transmuting arcs may be UB. we now store a `*const ()` pointer internally, and only rely on `ptr.cast::<()>().cast::<T>() == ptr`. as a happy side effect this removes the need for boxing the value, so todo: potentially use this for release mode as well |

Migrate engine to Schedule v3 (#7267)
Huge thanks to @maniwani, @devil-ira, @hymm, @cart, @superdump and @jakobhellermann for the help with this PR. # Objective - Followup #6587. - Minimal integration for the Stageless Scheduling RFC: https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/pull/45 ## Solution - [x] Remove old scheduling module - [x] Migrate new methods to no longer use extension methods - [x] Fix compiler errors - [x] Fix benchmarks - [x] Fix examples - [x] Fix docs - [x] Fix tests ## Changelog ### Added - a large number of methods on `App` to work with schedules ergonomically - the `CoreSchedule` enum - `App::add_extract_system` via the `RenderingAppExtension` trait extension method - the private `prepare_view_uniforms` system now has a public system set for scheduling purposes, called `ViewSet::PrepareUniforms` ### Removed - stages, and all code that mentions stages - states have been dramatically simplified, and no longer use a stack - `RunCriteriaLabel` - `AsSystemLabel` trait - `on_hierarchy_reports_enabled` run criteria (now just uses an ad hoc resource checking run condition) - systems in `RenderSet/Stage::Extract` no longer warn when they do not read data from the main world - `RunCriteriaLabel` - `transform_propagate_system_set`: this was a nonstandard pattern that didn't actually provide enough control. The systems are already `pub`: the docs have been updated to ensure that the third-party usage is clear. ### Changed - `System::default_labels` is now `System::default_system_sets`. - `App::add_default_labels` is now `App::add_default_sets` - `CoreStage` and `StartupStage` enums are now `CoreSet` and `StartupSet` - `App::add_system_set` was renamed to `App::add_systems` - The `StartupSchedule` label is now defined as part of the `CoreSchedules` enum - `.label(SystemLabel)` is now referred to as `.in_set(SystemSet)` - `SystemLabel` trait was replaced by `SystemSet` - `SystemTypeIdLabel<T>` was replaced by `SystemSetType<T>` - The `ReportHierarchyIssue` resource now has a public constructor (`new`), and implements `PartialEq` - Fixed time steps now use a schedule (`CoreSchedule::FixedTimeStep`) rather than a run criteria. - Adding rendering extraction systems now panics rather than silently failing if no subapp with the `RenderApp` label is found. - the `calculate_bounds` system, with the `CalculateBounds` label, is now in `CoreSet::Update`, rather than in `CoreSet::PostUpdate` before commands are applied. - `SceneSpawnerSystem` now runs under `CoreSet::Update`, rather than `CoreStage::PreUpdate.at_end()`. - `bevy_pbr::add_clusters` is no longer an exclusive system - the top level `bevy_ecs::schedule` module was replaced with `bevy_ecs::scheduling` - `tick_global_task_pools_on_main_thread` is no longer run as an exclusive system. Instead, it has been replaced by `tick_global_task_pools`, which uses a `NonSend` resource to force running on the main thread. ## Migration Guide - Calls to `.label(MyLabel)` should be replaced with `.in_set(MySet)` - Stages have been removed. Replace these with system sets, and then add command flushes using the `apply_system_buffers` exclusive system where needed. - The `CoreStage`, `StartupStage, `RenderStage` and `AssetStage` enums have been replaced with `CoreSet`, `StartupSet, `RenderSet` and `AssetSet`. The same scheduling guarantees have been preserved. - Systems are no longer added to `CoreSet::Update` by default. Add systems manually if this behavior is needed, although you should consider adding your game logic systems to `CoreSchedule::FixedTimestep` instead for more reliable framerate-independent behavior. - Similarly, startup systems are no longer part of `StartupSet::Startup` by default. In most cases, this won't matter to you. - For example, `add_system_to_stage(CoreStage::PostUpdate, my_system)` should be replaced with - `add_system(my_system.in_set(CoreSet::PostUpdate)` - When testing systems or otherwise running them in a headless fashion, simply construct and run a schedule using `Schedule::new()` and `World::run_schedule` rather than constructing stages - Run criteria have been renamed to run conditions. These can now be combined with each other and with states. - Looping run criteria and state stacks have been removed. Use an exclusive system that runs a schedule if you need this level of control over system control flow. - For app-level control flow over which schedules get run when (such as for rollback networking), create your own schedule and insert it under the `CoreSchedule::Outer` label. - Fixed timesteps are now evaluated in a schedule, rather than controlled via run criteria. The `run_fixed_timestep` system runs this schedule between `CoreSet::First` and `CoreSet::PreUpdate` by default. - Command flush points introduced by `AssetStage` have been removed. If you were relying on these, add them back manually. - Adding extract systems is now typically done directly on the main app. Make sure the `RenderingAppExtension` trait is in scope, then call `app.add_extract_system(my_system)`. - the `calculate_bounds` system, with the `CalculateBounds` label, is now in `CoreSet::Update`, rather than in `CoreSet::PostUpdate` before commands are applied. You may need to order your movement systems to occur before this system in order to avoid system order ambiguities in culling behavior. - the `RenderLabel` `AppLabel` was renamed to `RenderApp` for clarity - `App::add_state` now takes 0 arguments: the starting state is set based on the `Default` impl. - Instead of creating `SystemSet` containers for systems that run in stages, simply use `.on_enter::<State::Variant>()` or its `on_exit` or `on_update` siblings. - `SystemLabel` derives should be replaced with `SystemSet`. You will also need to add the `Debug`, `PartialEq`, `Eq`, and `Hash` traits to satisfy the new trait bounds. - `with_run_criteria` has been renamed to `run_if`. Run criteria have been renamed to run conditions for clarity, and should now simply return a bool. - States have been dramatically simplified: there is no longer a "state stack". To queue a transition to the next state, call `NextState::set` ## TODO - [x] remove dead methods on App and World - [x] add `App::add_system_to_schedule` and `App::add_systems_to_schedule` - [x] avoid adding the default system set at inappropriate times - [x] remove any accidental cycles in the default plugins schedule - [x] migrate benchmarks - [x] expose explicit labels for the built-in command flush points - [x] migrate engine code - [x] remove all mentions of stages from the docs - [x] verify docs for States - [x] fix uses of exclusive systems that use .end / .at_start / .before_commands - [x] migrate RenderStage and AssetStage - [x] migrate examples - [x] ensure that transform propagation is exported in a sufficiently public way (the systems are already pub) - [x] ensure that on_enter schedules are run at least once before the main app - [x] re-enable opt-in to execution order ambiguities - [x] revert change to `update_bounds` to ensure it runs in `PostUpdate` - [x] test all examples - [x] unbreak directional lights - [x] unbreak shadows (see 3d_scene, 3d_shape, lighting, transparaency_3d examples) - [x] game menu example shows loading screen and menu simultaneously - [x] display settings menu is a blank screen - [x] `without_winit` example panics - [x] ensure all tests pass - [x] SubApp doc test fails - [x] runs_spawn_local tasks fails - [x] [Fix panic_when_hierachy_cycle test hanging](https://github.com/alice-i-cecile/bevy/pull/120) ## Points of Difficulty and Controversy **Reviewers, please give feedback on these and look closely** 1. Default sets, from the RFC, have been removed. These added a tremendous amount of implicit complexity and result in hard to debug scheduling errors. They're going to be tackled in the form of "base sets" by @cart in a followup. 2. The outer schedule controls which schedule is run when `App::update` is called. 3. I implemented `Label for `Box<dyn Label>` for our label types. This enables us to store schedule labels in concrete form, and then later run them. I ran into the same set of problems when working with one-shot systems. We've previously investigated this pattern in depth, and it does not appear to lead to extra indirection with nested boxes. 4. `SubApp::update` simply runs the default schedule once. This sucks, but this whole API is incomplete and this was the minimal changeset. 5. `time_system` and `tick_global_task_pools_on_main_thread` no longer use exclusive systems to attempt to force scheduling order 6. Implemetnation strategy for fixed timesteps 7. `AssetStage` was migrated to `AssetSet` without reintroducing command flush points. These did not appear to be used, and it's nice to remove these bottlenecks. 8. Migration of `bevy_render/lib.rs` and pipelined rendering. The logic here is unusually tricky, as we have complex scheduling requirements. ## Future Work (ideally before 0.10) - Rename schedule_v3 module to schedule or scheduling - Add a derive macro to states, and likely a `EnumIter` trait of some form - Figure out what exactly to do with the "systems added should basically work by default" problem - Improve ergonomics for working with fixed timesteps and states - Polish FixedTime API to match Time - Rebase and merge #7415 - Resolve all internal ambiguities (blocked on better tools, especially #7442) - Add "base sets" to replace the removed default sets. |

Shaders can now have #else ifdef chains (#7431)
# Objective Currently, shaders may only have syntax such as ```wgsl #ifdef FOO // foo code #else #ifdef BAR // bar code #else #ifdef BAZ // baz code #else // fallback code #endif #endif #endif ``` This is hard to read and follow. Add a way to allow writing `#else ifdef DEFINE` to reduce the number of scopes introduced and to increase readability. ## Solution Refactor the current preprocessing a bit and add logic to allow `#else ifdef DEFINE`. This includes per-scope tracking of whether a branch has been accepted. Add a few tests for this feature. With these changes we may now write: ```wgsl #ifdef FOO // foo code #else ifdef BAR // bar code #else ifdef BAZ // baz code #else // fallback code #endif ``` instead. --- ## Changelog - Add `#else ifdef` to shader preprocessing. |

Make PipelineCache internally mutable. (#7205)
# Objective - Allow rendering queue systems to use a `Res<PipelineCache>` even for queueing up new rendering pipelines. This is part of unblocking parallel execution queue systems. ## Solution - Make `PipelineCache` internally mutable w.r.t to queueing new pipelines. Pipelines are no longer immediately updated into the cache state, but rather queued into a Vec. The Vec of pending new pipelines is then later processed at the same time we actually create the queued pipelines on the GPU device. --- ## Changelog `PipelineCache` no longer requires mutable access in order to queue render / compute pipelines. ## Migration Guide * Most usages of `resource_mut::<PipelineCache>` and `ResMut<PipelineCache>` can be changed to `resource::<PipelineCache>` and `Res<PipelineCache>` as long as they don't use any methods requiring mutability - the only public method requiring it is `process_queue`. |

Reduce branching in TrackedRenderPass (#7053)
# 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 |

Replace UUID based IDs with a atomic-counted ones (#6988)
# Objective - alternative to #2895 - as mentioned in #2535 the uuid based ids in the render module should be replaced with atomic-counted ones ## Solution - instead of generating a random UUID for each render resource, this implementation increases an atomic counter - this might be replaced by the ids of wgpu if they expose them directly in the future - I have not benchmarked this solution yet, but this should be slightly faster in theory. - Bevymark does not seem to be affected much by this change, which is to be expected. - Nothing of our API has changed, other than that the IDs have lost their IMO rather insignificant documentation. - Maybe the documentation could be added back into the macro, but this would complicate the code. |

Directly extract joints into SkinnedMeshJoints (#6833)
# Objective Following #4402, extract systems run on the render world instead of the main world, and allow retained state operations on it's resources. We're currently extracting to `ExtractedJoints` and then copying it twice during Prepare. Once into `SkinnedMeshJoints` and again into the actual GPU buffer. This makes #4902 obsolete. ## Solution Cut out the middle copy and directly extract joints into `SkinnedMeshJoints` and remove `ExtractedJoints` entirely. This also removes the per-frame allocation that is being made to send `ExtractedJoints` into the render world. ## Performance On my local machine, this halves the time for `prepare_skinned _meshes` on `many_foxes` (195.75us -> 93.93us on average).  --- ## Changelog Added: `BufferVec::truncate` Added: `BufferVec::extend` Changed: `SkinnedMeshJoints::build` now takes a `&mut BufferVec` instead of a `&mut Vec` as a parameter. Removed: `ExtractedJoints`. ## Migration Guide `ExtractedJoints` has been removed. Read the bound bones from `SkinnedMeshJoints` instead. |

Make AsBindGroup unsized (#6937)
# Objective `AsBindGroup` can't be used as a trait object because of the constraint `Sized` and because of the associated function. This is a problem for [`bevy_atmosphere`](https://github.com/JonahPlusPlus/bevy_atmosphere) because it needs to use a trait that depends on `AsBindGroup` as a trait object, for switching out different shaders at runtime. The current solution it employs is reimplementing the trait and derive macro into that trait, instead of constraining to `AsBindGroup`. ## Solution Remove the `Sized` constraint from `AsBindGroup` and add the constraint `where Self: Sized` to the associated function `bind_group_layout`. Also change `PreparedBindGroup<T: AsBindGroup>` to `PreparedBindGroup<T>` and use it as `PreparedBindGroup<Self::Data>` instead of `PreparedBindGroup<Self>`. This weakens the constraints, but increases the flexibility of `AsBindGroup`. I'm not entirely sure why the `Sized` constraint was there, because it worked fine without it (maybe @cart wasn't aware of use cases for `AsBindGroup` as a trait object or this was just leftover from legacy code?). --- ## Changelog - `AsBindGroup` can be used as a trait object. |

Remove unnecessary struct in Material AsBindGroup example (#6701)
# Objective - Reduce confusion around uniform bindings in materials. I've seen multiple people on discord get confused by it because it uses a struct that is named the same in the rust code and the wgsl code, but doesn't contain the same data. Also, the only reason this works is mostly by chance because the memory happens to align correctly. ## Solution - Remove the confusing parts of the doc ## Notes It's not super clear in the diff why this causes confusion, but essentially, the rust code defines a `CustomMaterial` struct with a color and a texture, but in the wgsl code the struct with the same name only contains the color. People are confused by it because the struct in wgsl doesn't need to be there. You _can_ have complex structs on each side and the macro will even combine it for you if you reuse a binding index, but as it is now, this example seems to confuse more than help people. |
