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.
Intended for use if there are future issues with mono crashes whilst generate dynamic textures.
This test is triggered via a new test-stress nant target.
Not run by default.
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.
In testing, it appears that if multiple threads dispose of separate GDI+ objects simultaneously,
the native malloc heap can become corrupted, possibly due to a double free(). This may be due to
bugs in the underlying libcairo used by mono's libgdiplus.dll on Linux/OSX. These problems were
seen with both libcario 1.10.2-6.1ubuntu3 and 1.8.10-2ubuntu1. They go away if disposal is perfomed
under lock.
This is to resolve a reported issue in http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=6232
Here, the land management module is using OpenSim.Framework.Cache (the only code to currently do so apart from the non-default CoreAssetCache).
This is to allow a second attempt to remove an avatar even if "show connections" shows them as already inactive (i.e. close has already been attempted once).
You should only attempt --force if a normal kick fails.
This is partly for diagnostics as we have seen some connections occasionally remain on lbsa plaza even if they are registered as inactive.
This is not a permanent solution and may not work anyway - the ultimate solution is to stop this problem from happening in the first place.
The convention is that if an object implements IDiposable() the code must explicitly call Dispose() or call it via the using statement.
This may be particularly important for GDI+ objects since they encapsulate native code entities.
A deadlock was observed today where NPC removal on a script thread would lock the NPC list and then try to lock the sensor list via scripted attachment removal.
Concurrently, the sensor sweep thread would lock the sensor list and then try to lock the NPC list to check NPC status.
This commit resolves the deadlock by replacing the sensor list on update rather than locking it for the duration of the sweep.
Possibly this was for a feature that was never implemented or was otherwise removed.
Thanks to SignpostMarv for the spot of the warning that shows this parameter was never changed.
If we copy the asset description then we will only ever replicate the very first description, if there was one, not any subsequent changes.
Thanks to Oren Hurvitz of Kitely for this patch from http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=6107
I have adapted it slightly to change the order of arguments (name before description rather than vice-versa) and slightly improve some method doc.
This aims to capture the amount of memory that OpenSim turns over whilst operating a region.
This memory is not lost - apart from leaks it is reclaimed by the garbage collector.
However, the more memory that gets turned over the more work the GC has to do to reclaim it.
This is fired when all regions are ready or when at least one region becomes not ready.
Recently added EventManager.OnRegionReady becomes OnRegionReadyStatusChange to match OnLoginsEnabledStatusChange
When linking, detach the no longer used SOG's from backup so they can be
collected. Since their Children collection is never emptied, they prevent
their former SOPs from being collected as well.
