In case you missed it
Previous version
Intel Launched Open Image Denoise 2.0.1, the latest version of its open-source library of denoising filters for images rendered with ray tracing.
The update is focused on improving performance on Intel-integrated GPUs and fixing various issues. Here is the full list of changes in 2.0.0 and 2.0.1:
- Fixed performance issue for Intel integrated GPUs using recent Linux drivers
- Fixed crash on systems with both dedicated and integrated AMD GPUs
- Fixed importing D3D12_RESOURCE, D3D11_RESOURCE, D3D11_RESOURCE_KMT,
D3D11_TEXTURE and D3D11_TEXTURE_KMT external memory types on CUDA and
HIP devices - Fixed the macOS deployment target of the official x86 binaries (lowered from
11.0 to 10.11) - Minor improvements to verbose output
- Added SYCL device for Intel Xe architecture GPUs (Xe-LP, Xe-HPG and Xe-HPC)
- Added CUDA device for NVIDIA Volta, Turing, Ampere, Ada Lovelace and Hopper
architecture GPUs - Added HIP device for AMD RDNA2 (Navi 21 only) and RDNA3 (Navi 3x)
architecture GPUs - Added new buffer API functions for specifying the storage type (host, device
or managed), copying data to/from the host, and importing external buffers from
graphics APIs (e.g. Vulkan, Direct3D 12) - Removed the oidnMapBuffer and oidnUnmapBuffer functions
- Added support for asynchronous execution (e.g. oidnExecuteFilterAsync,
oidnSyncDevice functions) - Added physical device API for querying the supported devices in the system
- Added functions for creating a device from a physical device ID, UUID, LUID
or PCI address (e.g. oidnNewDeviceByID) - Added SYCL, CUDA and HIP interoperability API functions (e.g. oidnNewSYCLDevice,
oidnExecuteSYCLFilterAsync) - Added type device parameter for querying the device type
- Added systemMemorySupported and managedMemorySupported device parameters
for querying memory allocations supported by the device - Added externalMemoryTypes device parameter for querying the supported
external memory handle types - Added quality filter parameter for setting the filtering quality mode (high
or balanced quality) - Minor API changes with backward compatibility:
- Added oidn(Get|Set)(Device|Filter)(Bool|Int|Float) functions and
deprecated oidn(Get|Set)(Device|Filter)(1b|1i|1f) functions - Added oidnUnsetFilter(Image|Data) functions and deprecated
oidnRemoveFilter(Image|Data) functions - Renamed alignment and overlap filter parameters to tileAlignment
and tileOverlap but the old names remain supported - Removed OIDN_STATIC_LIB and OIDN_STATIC_RUNTIME CMake options due to
technical limitations - Fixed over-conservative buffer bounds checking for images with custom strides
- Upgraded to oneTBB 2021.9.0 in the official binaries
