Viewer LL 3.3.4 and before sometimes fail to properly redisplay dynamic textures that have a small data length compared to pixel size when pulled from cache.
This appears to happen when the data length is smaller than the estimate discard level 2 size the viewer uses when making this GetTexture request.
This commit works around this by always regenerating dynamic textures that fall below this threshold rather than reusing them if ReuseDynamicTextures = true
This can be controlled by the [Textures] ReuseDynamicLowDataTextures config setting which defaults to false.
This is because recent viewers (3.2.1, 3.3.4) and probably earlier ones using the http GetTexture capability will sometimes make such invalid range requests.
This appears to happen if the viewer's estimate of texture sizes at discard levels > 0 (chiefly 2) exceeds the total texture size.
I believe this does not normally happen but can occur for dynamic textures with are large but mainly blank.
If this happens, returning a RequestedRangeNotSatisfiable will cause the viewer to not render the texture at the final resolution.
However, returning a PartialContent (or OK) even with 0 data will allow the viewer to render the final texture.
If true, this setting reuses dynamically generated textures (i.e. created through osSetDynamicTextureData() and similar OSSL functions) where possible rather than always regenerating them.
This results in much quicker updates viewer-side but may bloat the asset cache (though this is fixable).
Also, sometimes issue have been seen where dynamic textures do not transfer to the viewer properly (permanently blurry).
If this happens and that flag is set then they are not regenerated, the viewer has to clear cache or wait for 24 hours before all cached uuids are invalidated.
CUrrently experimental. Default is false, as before.
Disabled (status quo) by default.
This flag makes the dynamic texture module reuse cache previously dynamically generated textures given the same input commands and extra params for 24 hours.
This occurs as long as those commands would always generate the same texture (e.g. they do not contain commands to fetch data from the web).
This makes texture changing faster as a viewer-cached texture uuid is sent and may reduce simulator load in regions with generation of lots of dynamic textures.
A downside is that this stops expiry of old temporary dynamic textures from the cache,
Another downside is that a jpeg2000 generation that partially failed is currently not regenerated until restart or after 24 hours.
* Re-added openjpeg-dotnet files since they are used elsewhere in OpenSim * Updated prebuild.xml with a reference to CSJ2K
* Renamed IJ2KDecoder and J2KDecoder member names to follow standard naming conventions * Removed j2kDecodeCache cruft and replaced it with the OpenSim cache system * Rewrote the default layer boundary algorithm to use percentages instead of an exponent * Switched from an infinite in-memory cache to an expiring cache (10 minute timeout) * Slightly quieted logging errors for failed texture decodes
This change addresses two issues:
[1] It adds a flag field to the blendface call which allows the
caller to indicate whether or not the generated asset is
temporary, and whether or not the asset being replaced should
be explicitly retired fromt the memory cache. The decimal
values correspond to:
0 - Permanent asset, do not expire old asset
1 - Permanent asset, expire old asset
2 - Temporary asset, do not expire old asset
3 - Temporary asset, expire old asset
'3' corresponds to the default behavior seen today, and is
the continued behavior of the non-blendface calls.
[2] The dynamic texture routines are highly-asynchronous and can
be scheduled simultaneously on a multi-core machine. The nature
of the texture management interfaece is such that updates may
be lost, and the nature of asynchornous operation means that
they may be processed out of order. A lock has been added to
ensure that updates are at least atomic. No attempt has been
made to enforce ordering. The lock applies to the SceneObjectPart
being updated and is held for the lifetime of the TextureEntry
used to carry texture updates (the one instance carries all
faces supported by the prim).
Users of these services should remember that the dynamic texture
call is asynchronous and control will be returned *before* the
texture update has actually occurred. As a result, a isubsequent
GetTexture call may not return the expected asset id. A script
must wait for the corresponding TEXTURE_CHANGED event before
retrieving any texture information.
Modify dynamic texture handling so that an explicitly targetted
face is not scheduled for immediate expiration. The requirement
for precaching explicitly requires these assets to persist. They
do however remain temporary.
This approach leaves the legacy mode of operation (ALL_SIDES)
unchanged in this respect.
Changes to support client-side image pre-caching in the region. This
commit adds an additional calling sequence to the DynamicTexture data
and URL calls. The new interface allows a dynamic image to be loaded
into a specific object face (rather than the mandatory ALL_SIDES
supported today.
This is in part fulfilment of ticket #458.
This may break a lot of things, but it needs to go in. It was tested in standalone and the UCI grid, but it needs a lot more testing.
Known problems:
* HG asset transfers are borked for now
* missing texture is missing
* 3 unit tests commented out for now
* Added log4net dependency to physxplugin in prebuild.xml.
* Added missing m_log fields to classes.
* Replaced Console.WriteLine with appropriate m_log.Xxxx
* Tested that nant test target runs succesfully.
* Tested that local opensim sandbox starts up without errors.
