In this new protocol, and as committed before, the viewer is not sent EnableSimulator/EstablishChildCommunication for the destination. Instead, it is sent TeleportFinish directly. TeleportFinish, in turn, makes the viewer send a UserCircuitCode packet followed by CompleteMovementIntoRegion packet. These 2 packets tend to occur one after the other almost immediately to the point that when CMIR arrives the client is not even connected yet and that packet is ignored (there might have been some race conditions here before); then the viewer sends CMIR again within 5-8 secs. But the delay between them may be higher in busier regions, which may lead to race conditions.
This commit improves the process so there are are no race conditions at the destination. CompleteMovement (triggered by the viewer) waits until Update has been sent from the origin. Update, in turn, waits until there is a *root* scene presence -- so making sure CompleteMovement has run MakeRoot. In other words, there are two threadlets at the destination, one from the viewer and one from the origin region, waiting for each other to do the right thing. That makes it safe to close the agent at the origin upon return of the Update call without having to wait for callback, because we are absolutely sure that the viewer knows it is in th new region.
Note also that in the V1 protocol, the destination was getting UseCircuitCode from the viewer twice -- once on EstablishAgentCommunication and then again on TeleportFinish. The second UCC was being ignored, but it shows how we were not following the expected steps...
If this consistently increases then this is a problem since it means the simulator is receiving more requests than it can distribute to other parts of the code.
If we're not receiving packets with multiple threads (m_asyncPacketHandling) then this is critical since it will limit the number of incoming UDP requests that the region can handle and affects packet loss.
If m_asyncPacketHandling then this is less critical though a long process will increase the scope for threads to race.
This is an experimental stat which may be changed.
AgentUpdate packet. This fixes the problem with vehicles not moving forward
after the first up-arrow.
Code to fix a potential exception when using different IClientAPIs.
- The existing event to scene has been split into 2: OnAgentUpdate and OnAgentCameraUpdate, to better reflect the two types of updates that the viewer sends. We can run one without the other, which is what happens when the avie is still but the user is camming around
- Added thresholds (as opposed to equality) to determine whether the update is significant or not. I thin these thresholds are ok, but we can play with them later
- Ignore updates of HeadRotation, which were problematic and aren't being used up stream
Added here since it was the most convenient place
Number is in the last column, "Sig. AgentUpdates" along with percentage of all AgentUpdates
Percentage largely falls over time, most cpu for processing AgentUpdates may be in UDP processing as turning this off even earlier (with "debug lludp toggle agentupdate" results in a big cpu fall
Also tidies up display.
Enabling this will stop anybody from moving on a sim, though all other updates should be unaffected.
Appears to make some cpu difference on very basic testing with a static standing avatar (though not all that much).
Need to see the results with much higher av numbers.
This appears to improve cpu usage since launching a new thread is more expensive than performing a small amount of inline logic.
However, needs testing at scale.
Justin, if you read this, there's a long story here. Some time ago you placed SendInitialDataToMe at the very beginning of client creation (in LLUDPServer). That is problematic, as we discovered relatively recently: on TPs, as soon as the client starts getting data from child agents, it starts requesting resources back *from the simulator where its root agent is*. We found this to be the problem behind meshes missing on HG TPs (because the viewer was requesting the meshes of the receiving sim from the departing grid). But this affects much more than meshes and HG TPs. It may also explain cloud avatars after a local TP: baked textures are only stored in the simulator, so if a child agent receives a UUID of a baked texture in the destination sim and requests that texture from the departing sim where the root agent is, it will fail to get that texture.
Bottom line: we need to delay sending the new simulator data to the viewer until we are absolutely sure that the viewer knows that its main agent is in a new sim. Hence, moving it to CompleteMovement.
Now I am trying to tune the initial rez delay that we all experience in the CC. I think that when I fixed the issue described above, I may have moved SendInitialDataToMe to much later than it should be, so now I'm moving to earlier in CompleteMovement.
reception thread to sleep for 30ms if the number of available user worker
threads got low. It doesn't look like any of the UDP packet types are
marked async so this check is 1) unnecessary and 2) really crazy since
it stops up the reception thread under heavy load without any indication.
also moves the implementing code into LLUDPServer.cs along with other debug commands from OpenSim.cs
gets all debug lludp commands to only activate for the set scene if not root
hashes for the purpose of accurately responding to AgentTextureCached
packets. There is a change to IClientAPI to report the wearbles hashes
that come in through the SetAppearance packet. Added storage of the
texture hashes in the appearance. While these are added to the
Pack/Unpack (with support for missing values) routines (which means
Simian will store them properly), they are not currently persisted in
Robust.
packet can be pulled out of LLClientView and moved to
AvatarFactory. The first pass at reusing textures (turned off by
default) is included. When reusing textures, if the baked textures
from a previous login are still in the asset service (which generally
means that they are in the simulator's cache) then the avatar will not
need to rebake. This is both a performance improvement (specifically
that an avatars baked textures do not need to be sent to other users
who have the old textures cached) and a resource improvement (don't
have to deal with duplicate bakes in the asset service cache).
