This allows to define a new dynamic scaling in the renderer with low amount of boiler plate:
DynamicRenderScaling::FHeuristicSettings GetDynamicTranslucencyResolutionSettings()
{
RenderingDynamicScaling::FHeuristicSettings BucketSetting;
BucketSetting.Model = RenderingDynamicScaling::EHeuristicModel::Quadratic;
BucketSetting.bModelScalesWithPrimaryScreenPercentage = true;
BucketSetting.MinResolutionFraction = ...
...
return BucketSetting;
}
DynamicRenderScaling::FBudget GDynamicTranslucencyResolution(TEXT("DynamicTranslucencyResolution"), &GetDynamicTranslucencyResolutionSettings);
And then simply define a scope to measure the GPU timing as such:
{
DynamicRenderScaling::FRDGScope DynamicTranslucencyResolutionScope(GraphBuilder, GDynamicTranslucencyResolution);
// add passes to GraphBuilder
}

[CL 20376428 by Guillaume Abadie in ue5-main branch]
- Simplified RDG transition logic to only use subresource transitions.
- Don't allow unmergeable states to be merged during pass setup.

- Refactord 'Finalized Access' feature into a more flexible 'External' vs. 'Internal' access mode per resource toggle.
- Resources can transition between modes multiple times within the graph.
- Supports async compute pipeline.
- Supports queueing of requests to avoid back-to-back helper passes.
- This feature is needed to support conversion of GPU scene buffers.
- Deprecated the ReadOnly and ForceTracking resource flags and added a 'SkipTracking' flag instead.
- Previous semantics were confusing and error prone.
- New model requires a manual flag to tell RDG never to transition a resource.
- This flag is used for read-only dummy resources as an optimization.
- Renamed some of the auxiliary 'FinalizedResource' utilities since the name no longer matches the semantics.
#preflight 6266cc6d0634d0904ce4ba46
[CL 19904734 by zach bethel in ue5-main branch]
- Added resource pool counters and events.
- Added AllocatePooledBuffer method and refactored pool to no longer take a command list.
- Refactored swap chain barrier logic to be a bit cleaner.
- Added helper methods to cast between views.
- Added power of two alignment option to buffer pool.
- Added GetTypeHash implementations for RDG SRV | UAV descriptors.

[CL 19873407 by zach bethel in ue5-main branch]
- New RHI command list SetTrackedAccess method for the user to supply a current whole-resource state.
- New RHI command context GetTrackedAccess method for querying the tracked access in RHIBeginTransitions / RHIEndTransitions on the RHI thread.
- Hooked RHICmdList.Transition and FRHICommandListExecutor::Transition to assign tracked state automatically.
- Refactored RDG and resource pools to use new RHI tracking.
- FRDGPooledBuffer / FRDGPooledTexture no longer contain tracked state. RDG temp-allocates state through the graph allocator instead.
- All prologue transitions are 'Unknown', and all epilogue transitions coalesce into a whole resource state.
- Implemented platform support for patching the 'before' state with the tracked state.
- Implemented various RHI validation checks:
- Asserts that the user assigned tracked state matches RHI validation tracked state, for all subresources.
- Asserts that tracked state is not assigned or queried from a parallel translation context.
- Added FRHIViewableResource and FRHIView base classes to RHI. FRHIView contains a pointer to an FRHIViewableResource. This is currently a raw pointer, but should be extended to a full reference in a later CL.
NOTE on RHI thread constraint:
Transition evaluation is now restricted to the RHI thread (i.e. no parallel translation contexts). Transitions aren't performed in parallel translate contexts anyway, so this is not a problem. If, however, we decide to refactor parallel translation to be more general, this implementation could be extended to track the state per context and update from the 'dispatch' thread.

VSM in AncientGame campfire went from 4.64ms -> 3.41ms, Primary raster went from 1.34ms -> 1.07ms. Lumen raster 0.20ms -> 0.18ms. Much higher gains expected in content with high numbers of rasterizer bins (more overhead to remove using this optimization)
MedievalGame is even better: Primary raster 1.82ms -> 0.92ms, VSM 2.99ms -> 2.07ms, Lumen 0.43ms -> 0.19ms

Allow more flexibility of the Metal RHICopyToResolveTarget to include compatable texture view pixelformats. Fixes validation error when resolving between sRGB and RGB formats.
FMetalContext: don't assert then go into the weeds on macOS when there are no render targets.

There remain significant visual artifacts in the Virtual Production City map. Lumen has serious issues with multiple views in both single and multi-GPU modes -- I think Lumen data needs to be split per view family to solve this. There is some corrupt geometry in the second view, which may be Nanite or instance rendering related (or something else entirely). To narrow down these issues, I think I'm going to need to extend the DumpGPU feature to be able to do more effective MGPU graphical debugging, since none of PIX, RenderDoc, or NSight work. But at least it doesn't crash now...
Full list of changes:
* CVAR (DC.MultiGPUMode) to override multi-GPU mode for Display Cluster, debug feature copied over from 4.27.
* Barrier and synchronization fixes for RHITransferTextures copied over 4.27. Future work will make RDG handle multi-GPU transitions more seamlessly...
* CVAR (DC.ForceCrossGPUCopy) to force expensive full synchronization and copy of resources cross GPU at the end of each view family render (for debugging). RHITransferTextures upgraded to support copying things besides 2D textures, including other texture resources and buffers.
* AFR temporal fixes from a previous CL (which I moved from my single GPU to multi GPU PC), now improved to avoid some validation asserts in Debug builds (pass inputs not declared, GetParent()->GetRHI() not working because parent not declared to pass).
* Ray tracing (hang): acceleration buffers are branched per GPU, as GPU virtual addresses for resources internally referenced by these buffers may vary per GPU. Needed to add infrastructure to support buffers that duplicate memory per GPU, rather than using driver aliasing of the underlying resource.
* Ray tracing (hang): some buffer bindings weren't using a proper GPU index.
* Nanite (hang): Force initial clear of Nanite.MainAndPostNodesAndClusterBatchesBuffer to run on all GPUs. Solves GPU hang in shadow rendering the first frame (due to shadow rendering running across all GPUs), and later random hangs in view rendering.
* Distance field streaming (assert): GPU readback staging buffers need to be branched per GPU, as the underlying class is single device. GPU readback buffers and textures properly take into account the GPU they were last written on when locking and unlocking. Includes handling an edge case where a write can be queued when a lock is active, due to the deferred way commands are played back in the render graph.
* Distance field streaming (assert): UAV clear wasn't taking into account GPU index.
* GPU scene update needs to run across all GPUs.
* Fix for "DumpGPU" command to avoid assert with MGPU -- arbitrarily pick a GPU (last index) when the GPU mask contains multiple bits. Hope to improve this in the future, but it works.
