Linux: switch to Vulkan by default (UE-62807).
- Default behavior: attempt Vulkan first, but in case of failure instead of quitting silently fall back to GL, unless -vulkan is passed.
- Forcing GL is still possible.
Change 4277965 by Arciel.Rekman
Fix standalone applications after the Vulkan switch.
Change 4277968 by Arciel.Rekman
Linux: make CrashReportClient headful (UE-14089).
- The -unattended flags keep even a headful CRC usable on the servers.
- ldd did not change. Need to check Localization stuff to see if there are any deployment concerns.

Merged from 4.20.2: Linux: do not refuse to start if system limits cannot be raised (UE-62515).
- Too aggressive behavior, which can break cooking for no valid reason.

Change 4305659 by Marcin.Undak
[Vulkan][Engine] Update the Vulkan RHI to obey r.VSync (and the vsync and novsync command-line arguments).
Change 4222769 by Jason.Stewart@Jason.Stewart_AMD_Dev_Rendering_threadripper-win10 on 2018/07/19 10:55:48
The original implementation ran into a latent thread hazard between the RHI thread and the rendering thread, where the rendering thread would try to use the backbuffer of the swap chain while the swap chain was being recreated (specifically after the swap chain recreation code had released and nulled out the back buffer, but before swap chain creation had actually happened to get a new back buffer). This implementation addresses that issue.
This is Tim's code. I'm just submitting it as Tim is currently out of office.
Change 4305661 by Marcin.Undak

Change 4328963 by Arciel.Rekman
TestPAL: improve the test by randomizing allocation size.
- The range will no longer be constrained to <=128KB at once, allocations can be as big as 16MB but they will unevenly distributed, with smaller sizes being more frequent.
Change 4329208 by Arciel.Rekman
hlslcc: suppressed benign compiler warning during the Linux build (UE-43988).
Change 4329283 by Arciel.Rekman
Linux: replace CachedOSPageAllocator with PooledVirtualMemoryAllocator for Linux.
For the explanation of FPooledVirtualMemoryAllocator, see PooledVirtualMemoryAllocator.h
For the details, test data and comparisons, message Arciel Rekman.
Relevant command line args added:
-vmapoolscale=<float> (defaults to 1.4)
-vmapoolevict
-novmapoolevict
By default, freed memory will not be evicted from RAM (unless running on a server)
Also changed:
- Removed the fixed-size pool previously used by Linux (and supporting machinery like scaling it on start)
- Replaced the way we manage free blocks from pointers to a bitmap to reduce memory footprint.
Change 4331946 by Luke.Thatcher
[CONSOLE] [^] (merging CL 4162064) Implement new thread heart beat clock to solve the suspend/resume problem across all platforms.
- The hang and hitch detectors now maintain their own clocks which are ticked by their respective threads.
- If the title is suspended, the ticking thread will stop and the clock will stop advancing. On resume, the maximum delta in the clock is clamped to a small value, so we ignore all the time the thread was not ticking for (i.e. the duration of the title being suspended).
- As such, we don't need any logic for handling PLM suspend/resume in the hang and hitch detectors, so this change removes that too.
#jira FORT-96886
Change 4331973 by Luke.Thatcher
[CONSOLE] [^] (merging CL 4183499) Add frame-present-based hang detection.
- RHIs call FThreadHeartBeat::PresentFrame() whenever they present a frame to the swap chain.
- These calls form a separate heartbeat from the thread-based ones, allowing the hang detector to fire if, for example, the game thread is stuck in an async loading loop and is ticking the game thread heartbeat, but making no progress.
- Also refactored ThreadHeartBeat.cpp to move hang detection logging into a FORCENOINLINE function. This will put OnHang and OnPresentHang at the top of the callstack in retail crash dumps, making the bucketing easier to recognise.
Change 4332200 by Luke.Thatcher
[CONSOLE] [+] (merging CL 4227517) Add PlatformDebugData to FShaderResource.
- We can use this to store platform specific shader symbols etc. The data gets serialized to the DDC and can be retrieved during a cook.
- Data is entirely discarded in cooked builds, and is a no-op on platforms which don't implement support for shader debug data.
- Bumped shader version to invalidate DDC keys.
Change 4332407 by Luke.Thatcher
[CONSOLE] [CORE] [!] (merging CL 4279686) Fixed unaligned integer load macro inconsistencies.
- Renamed PLATFORM_SUPPORTS_UNALIGNED_INT_LOADS to PLATFORM_SUPPORTS_UNALIGNED_LOADS
- Merged it with REQUIRES_ALIGNED_ACCESS and REQUIRES_ALIGNED_INT_ACCESS
- Fixed Linux platform which had both the old macros defined to 1, which is wrong because they are mutually exclusive.
Change 4333386 by Luke.Thatcher
[CONSOLE] [!] (merging CL 4317367) Fix compile error in AnimationCompression.h
Change 4334395 by Arciel.Rekman
Corrected PLATFORM_DESKTOP definition.
Change 4336190 by Anthony.Bills
(Original CL4314280) Use the debug file writer when using framepro. This buffers more data which should reduce stalls when writing out on certain platforms.
#jira none
Change 4336291 by Anthony.Bills
Use a clamped local clock when timing out the renderthread.
- This prevents suspend and resume issues on platforms where suspend events may not occur or the system clock is not set to the process time.
#jira none
Change 4336292 by Anthony.Bills
(Orignal CL 4195778) Fix printing of the hang detector multiplier and other logging.
"f" is the correct format specifier for a double.
#jira none
Change 4336307 by Anthony.Bills
(Orignal CL 4257875) Use the correct clock when printing the scoped hitch stat.
- Needs to be the internal FGameThreadHitchHeartBeat clock incase FPlatformTime::Seconds becomes out of sync with FrameStartTime.
#jira none

[CONSOLE] [!] Fix memory scribble in black depth texture cube on platforms with 16-bit depth.
- Original code was writing a FColor into the locked texture data, which causes a 2 byte scribble if the PF_ShadowDepth format is 16-bits.
[!] Also fixed GWhiteTextureCube being black. FColor::White is not a compile-time constant, so an initialization order problem meant the value of FColor::White is actually black when the GWhiteTextureCube constructor runs.

Change 4345166 by Luke.Thatcher
[CONSOLE] [!] (merging CL 4345072) Fix initialization order bug with FColor and FLinearColor constants.
- The original constants were dynamically initialized during startup. Using these constants from other global constructors may result in getting the wrong value (transparent black) if a given constructor runs before FColor/FLinearColor's constructor.
- Adding constexpr to the FColor/FLinearColor constructor makes these constants known at compile-time, and included in the readonly data section, so they don't require dynamic initialization.
[~] Also restores the original constant color values in RenderUtils.cpp
