Prim generation: fixes from a review of the stack - #567
The fixes from a review of the whole prim generation stack (#556 to #562) for defects, correctness, performance and efficiency. One commit a fix, each with a test that fails without it where one could be written.
A flexible prim never joins its first and last rows. Its first build is on two stations at the origin, so it joined them, and its partial builds kept the join. A one-section flexi (a distant one) never builds in full again and summed its two ends' normals.
A sphere's pole normals follow its twist. They were hard-coded as +x and -x. A half turn of twist at both ends moves each pole to the other end of the axis, so its normal pointed into the sphere.
A generated normal's ownership mark doesn't depend on its edges' w.normalize3_or_mark kept w scaled with the sum, and the sphere placeholder left the w of the mesh rows its resize adds uninitialized. Under FMA, at LOD 2 and 3, its last rows took a neighbour's normal or the whole face got +Z.
A sculpt's doubled inner side keeps all of its quads. This is a sculpt whose parameters carry a square or triangle hole. The pinch search indexed that side as an undoubled grid.
A circle path leaves out a station within a hundredth of a step of its begin cut. About one wire cut in a hundred lands just below a step and left the first row with no height. So did the rounding of the step's size: a torus twisted 1.4 turns has 41 sides at LOD 3, and its first step rounds back onto a cut at 0. Sculpts keep the old station, as they do at the end. So do circle2 spirals, whose stations alternate sides. No point count changes: circle paths count by a formula of their sides.
A quad whose diagonal has no length adds nothing to its corners' normals. A sculpt can fold such a quad. Under FMA its corners off the diagonal took a rounding residue, which a vertex surrounded by such quads normalized into an arbitrary normal.
Mesh decode treats a Normal or TexCoord0 array shorter than the face's positions as absent instead of reading past its end. This was already on develop, not from the stack.
Kernels
grid_quads counts a line's first lane in its own line on compilers that turn its division into a multiply by a reciprocal, which -freciprocal-math lets Clang do. For widths such as 41, 47 and 55 the line's first quad was otherwise dropped from the tangents. I checked the effect, not the transform: a test build that multiplies by the reciprocal drops those quads, but I haven't confirmed in a Clang build that Clang makes the multiply. The new test runs those widths outside the strict TU.
A GLTF primitive is no longer reordered for the vertex cache as it loads. Only the uploader loads GLTF assets. The uploader orders a face too big for 16-bit indices again when it splits it, and every viewer orders mesh faces on decode, so this order reached no one.
Dependencies
meshoptimizer's compatible tangents are linear per vertex (registry baseline a6132ca to 1898932, meshoptimizer 1.3#1 to 1.3#4). 1.3#1 compared every pair of corners at a vertex, so a mesh LOD with a hub vertex cost seconds on a mesh thread. Two examples of hub vertices: a pole whose UVs pinch to a point, or a fan of 20,000 triangles, which the 65,535-vertex face cap allows.
1.3#2 pairs edges and splits groups in linear time, bit for bit as before. A 20k-triangle hub dropped from 145-350 ms to 2-4 ms.
1.3#3 adds a budget. A tangent group whose split of opposite tangents would cost more than 64 tests a corner plus 1,024 is left whole, and every corner takes the group's tangent. A 20k-triangle pinched fan dropped from 1.2 s to 3.4 ms.
Nothing in the mesh cache comes near the budget. All 40,455 faces hash the same out of cacheOptimize as on 1.3#1.
1.3#4 replaces leaving a group whole with an approximate split. That 1.3#3 behaviour hit ordinary content: a UV-sphere pole of 78 or more triangles came out with arbitrary tangents.
Past the budget, each split corner now gets the group's sum without its exactly opposite partners, as the reference computes it, to within rounding. Poles of 78 to 20,000 triangles come within 0.004 degrees of 1.3#1, and a 20k pole takes 15 ms.
Groups are still left whole past a cap that only meshes crafted to crowd near-opposite tangents reach.
1.3#4 also hashes every UV and normal bit in the vertex weld. A crafted face whose UVs collided took 4.6 s; it now takes 1.4 ms.
1.3#4 fixes two NaN edge cases as well.
Everywhere outside groups past the budget, output stays bit for bit 1.3#1's: on the corpus (45,820 faces) and on 1.6M fuzzed meshes, NaN and inf included.
The bump also takes openjpeg 2.5.4#31, which drops only a tile-part walker nothing calls.
Uploader
ALMeshSimplifier is an object that prepares its model once. Before, every call rebuilt the attributes, densities, remap and extent: once per face in Precise and Sloppy modes, and once per attempt in Auto.
A distant LOD made to an error keeps a model that is nothing but small parts. Pruning used to drop all of them, and the uploader then took the whole model as that LOD. The search for dropped parts also had a union-find that linked through a stale root.
A face simplified on its own locks only the vertices it shares with another face. It used to lock every open border, so a skirt meeting a bodice kept its whole hem.
Auto mode falls back to the precise mode that came closest, not always ALL. It also no longer corrects a failed sloppy pass to a negative decimator, which asked for one triangle. Both behaviours were in LL's code before the stack.
Second review pass
A second review of the whole stack, this PR included, found these. Two of them came from this PR's own fixes.
The SIMD kernels are built separately in each file that uses them (an unnamed namespace). They had external linkage, so on GCC and Clang llmath_tests linked the strict kernel test's copies in place of the library's fast-math ones. That covered the library entry points and every prim, sculpt and tangent case in llvolume_test, so no fast-math defect could fail them. The per-tier simd_tests binaries mixed their tier's copies with the tree tier's the same way.
clang-cl now builds the planar kernels and their test strict, through /clang:. It got neither the GCC/Clang options nor MSVC's pragma.
Hair, skirt and eyelashes keep the triangle order of their files. They are drawn blended, so the vertex-cache reorder changed how their layers composite.
A rigged face whose weights run out early gives the remaining vertices no influence. It used to leave them with uninitialized memory, which reached the weld key and skinning.
An out-of-memory in cacheOptimize now fails the LOD. It used to show the alert and raise a fatal error on a mesh thread.
A face with no area keeps no planar normal. A one-section flexi caches its planar normal on its first build, before it has a pose, when every side faces +Z. It never builds in full again, so it went on projecting planar textures along z.
The sphere placeholder is stitched as a sphere whatever the sculpt's stitching. A torus sculpt's placeholder summed its two poles' normals, and a plane's left its seam open.
Vertices that can't take a normal from their own column or row now get one from a single breadth-first search. It replaces a ring search per vertex, which cost about a million checks a face at LOD 3 on a sculpt whose map collapses most of its grid. Among equally near donors, it may pick a different one.
A face simplified on its own is locked only where a face's open border runs through a shared position. This PR's earlier change locked every shared position, which froze faces lying over one another whole, such as a garment's inside copy.
A texture coordinate that is not finite now weighs nothing in the simplifier. One such coordinate used to make the whole face's coordinates weigh nothing: a test plane fell to 6 triangles instead of 29.
Auto mode keeps a sloppy correction that brings it nearer its target. The old check undid every correction that worked. That was in LL's code before the stack.
Not changed, by decision: when a profile begin cut lands one cut quantum short of a step, LL's code drops the begin point and shifts the face IDs by one side. Face numbering has to match the server, so it stays as LL has it.
Left for later
The planar cone test depends on LOD. A cut face's end vertex normals come from the end quad alone, half a partial step inside the true normal. So a curved face spanning about 125 to 175 degrees can be eligible at one LOD and not another, and its planar mapping changes at the switch. Phase 6's exact normals at the cut make the test LOD-invariant; I'm not adding a heuristic here.
Testing
The meshoptimizer bump was verified in its own tree against the 1.3#3 and then the 1.3#4 port. It gives the same llmath_tests results as 1.3#1, the hidden real-corpus test passes on all 8 shards, and a fuzz over 1.2M random meshes and 6M adversarial cases matches 1.3#1 bit for bit with the budget removed. The rest of this section was run here, against the build tree's own meshoptimizer.
Built on Windows x64 (MSVC, RelWithDebInfo, AVX2 tier):
llmath_tests, the baseline, v2 and v4 simd_tests, and llprimitive_tests all pass. That is 45 CTest entries, including the one [!shouldfail] tapered side.
llvovolume.cpp, llmodelpreview.cpp and gltf/primitive.cpp compile, and so does llappearance; the viewer wasn't linked or run.
Each new test fails against a build with its fix reverted.
The kernel test was failed by a build that multiplies by the reciprocal in place of the division.
genNGon's end-station fix left out a station the summed steps bring a
rounding short of the end, for every circle path. A sculpt's path is a
circle path too, its station count the rows of the map it samples, so a
sculpt whose path took one of those side counts, as a map twice as tall
as it is wide does at LOD 1 and up, sampled other rows than before and
than every other viewer, and its shape changed. A sculpted path keeps
the station; a prim's still leaves it out.

A flexible prim's volume is first built on two stations, both at the
origin, before the rebuild gives it a pose: its first and last rows are
one place there, so its sides joined them, and every partial build kept
the join. A flexible prim of one section, as a distant one is drawn,
never builds in full again, and summed the normals of its two ends.
Its path is open, and its sides join no rows.

A sphere's poles took +x at its first column and -x at its last, where
an untwisted half circle puts them. A twist of a half turn at both ends
puts each pole at the other end of the axis, which turned both pole
normals into the sphere, and those of a hollow sphere's inner side out
of it. A pole now takes the axis away from the centre on an outer side
and toward it on an inner one.

A grid normal is the vertex's own where normalize3_or_mark leaves its w
at 0, and it kept w scaled with the sum. The sum's w is the cross
products' rounding of their edges' w, which is nonzero under fused
multiply-add wherever the positions' w differ: the sphere placeholder
wrote only x, y and z into mesh rows its resize leaves as it found
them, and at LOD 2 and 3 its last rows took a neighbour's normal or the
whole face +Z. A normalized vector now has a w of 0, and both
placeholders write theirs.

A sculpt whose parameters carry hollow with a square or triangle hole
has a flat inner side with its corners doubled, which the pinch search
indexed as an undoubled grid: the corners' empty quads went in and the
last real ones were left out. It keeps every quad, as a doubled side of
a prim does.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
grid_quads counted whole lines as floor(lane / width), a division by a
width the loop never changes, which -freciprocal-math lets Clang make a
multiply by a reciprocal taken once before the loop. At a line's first
lane that lands an ulp under the line for widths such as 41, 47 and 55,
and the line's first quad was taken for the padding lane past the end
of the line before it, adding nothing to its corners. The lines are
counted from the middle of the lane, which no rounding of a reciprocal
moves across a line.

…re taken as none
A face's vertex count is its positions', and the decode read that many
normals and texture coordinates from arrays it checked only for being
empty: a shorter one was read past its end. An array short of the
count is taken as none, its zeroes in its place.

getApproximateFaceNormal summed a face's vertex normals. A face that
wraps around holds its seam twice, so its normals summed to the seam's,
and media focus flew the camera round to the seam, behind a cylinder or
sphere from where its user stood. A face that faces one way, as planar
texgen takes it, gives its planar normal; any other gives none, and the
focus looks along the camera as it always did before 65f5954.

…ations
Every simplifyModel and simplifyFace call took the whole model as the
simplifier weighs it again: its attributes, texture densities, position
remap and extent. Precise and Sloppy modes made one call a face, and
Auto up to a dozen a level of detail, sloppy retries included. An
ALMeshSimplifier now holds what one model prepares, for every call made
of it.

With no triangle target, a distant level of detail made to an error
prunes every detached part within it. A model of nothing but such parts
came out with no triangle, which the check that no part past
PRUNE_LIMIT was dropped passed, and the uploader took the whole model
for the level. A pruned simplification left with no triangle now goes
the way of one that dropped too large a part: the parts within
PRUNE_LIMIT are dropped first, and where that leaves nothing, the model
is simplified without dropping any. An error within PRUNE_LIMIT drops
no larger part, and skips the search for one.
The search's union of a triangle's corners linked the third to a root
the second had replaced, splitting the second's part from the rest.

A face that met another took meshoptimizer's LockBorder, which holds
every open border, not only those shared with another face: a skirt
meeting a bodice kept every vertex of its hem. The vertices at a
position another face shares are locked instead, which keeps the seam
between the two closed, and the rest of the border is free.

Auto tried ALL, UV and NONE in turn, and each overwrote the ratio of the
last. Where none reached the target and sloppy did worse, it fell back
to ALL, the mode furthest from the target, and where NONE failed after
ALL had worked, it took the whole model. It keeps the closest mode and
its ratio. A first sloppy pass that failed also asked a correction to a
negative decimator, which asks for a single triangle; the smaller
decimators tried after it are the correction.

Improved rendering of blended avatar features, including hair, skirts, and eyelashes.
Fixed geometry and shading issues affecting sculpted and other 3D objects, including face normals and flexible objects.
Improved handling of incomplete mesh data to reduce invalid geometry and missing attributes.
Improvements
Refined level-of-detail generation to better preserve shared edges and small details, with more consistent results across simplification settings.
Improved mesh ordering and normal calculations for more consistent object appearance.
This pull request updates mesh ordering, model simplification, volume geometry generation, and SIMD kernels. It also changes affected callers and tests, strict floating-point compiler options, and the public registry baseline.
Primitive preparation no longer reorders indices and vertex attributes or removes unused vertices.

…egin cut
A begin cut just short of a step snaps the path's first step to within
a hundredth of a step of the cut, as about one cut the wire carries in a
hundred does, and so does the rounding of the step's size where the cut
is on a step: a torus twisted 1.4 turns has 41 sides at LOD 3, and its
first step rounds back to a cut at 0, a second station at the first's
place. Either leaves the first row no height, whose degenerate triangles
a shared volume drew. The step is the cut's own, as the end's last step
is, and the stations after it keep their places.
A sculpt keeps it, as it keeps the end's: its rows are the rows of its
map. So does a circle2 path, a spiral whose stations alternate sides,
where leaving one out would turn every station after it the other way;
getNumNGonPoints, which counts only circle2 paths, is unchanged, and so
are the circle paths' counts, which a formula of their sides makes.

A quad adds each triangle's cross product at its corner off the shared
diagonal, so that a row or column two of whose corners are one place
gives an edge of no length and a product of exactly zero. A quad whose
diagonal's ends are one place, as a sculpt can fold one, has no area on
either side, but the edges at its corners off the diagonal are each
other's reverse, and under fused multiply-add their product is the
rounding of one of its terms. A vertex with only such quads around it
took that rounding, normalized, as a normal of its own, in an
arbitrary direction, rather than a neighbour's. Such a quad now adds
nothing.

Only the uploader loads GLTF assets, and the order a primitive takes
there reaches no one: the uploader orders a face too large for 16-bit
indices again as it splits it, and every viewer orders a mesh face for
the vertex cache as it decodes it. The ordering cost a remap of eight
attributes for every primitive of every upload.

meshoptimizer 1.3#2 makes its compatible tangents linear around a vertex.
1.3#1 compared every pair of corners at a vertex twice, to pair edges and
to split exactly opposite tangents, so a hub of 20,000 triangles, which the
65,535-vertex face cap allows, took 145 to 350 ms a LOD on a mesh thread;
the same hub now takes 2 to 4 ms. Tangents are bit for bit 1.3#1's: over
the mesh cache, 40,455 faces hash the same out of meshoptimizer and out of
cacheOptimize, and llmath_tests gives the same results on either. The
baseline moves to 9350d75, which also takes openjpeg 2.5.4#31; that drops
only the tile-part walker, which nothing on this branch calls.

meshoptimizer 1.3#3 bounds a mesh's compatible tangents to linear time.
1.3#2 still spent the square of a group's size where its tangents turn all
the way round a vertex, as at a pole whose UVs pinch to a point: a fan of
20,000 triangles pinched so took 1.2 s a LOD on a mesh thread, and a mesh
can be built to make every hub pay it. A group whose split would cost more
than 64 tests a corner plus 1,024 is now left whole, every corner taking
the group's tangent; that fan takes 3.4 ms. The mesh cache comes nowhere
near the budget: its 40,455 faces hash the same out of meshoptimizer and
out of cacheOptimize as on 1.3#1, and llmath_tests gives the same results.
The baseline moves to f007fb7, which changes no other port.

The kernels in alsimdkernels.inl had external linkage, so every file
that included it and used a kernel made the same symbol, and the linker
kept one. The kernel test is built strict on GCC and Clang, and its
copies came first in llmath_tests' link: the library's entry points,
and every prim and sculpt case in llvolume_test, ran the strict build
in place of the one the viewer ships, which no fast-math defect could
fail. Each tier's simd_tests binary folded its tier's copies with the
tree tier's the same way. The kernels now sit in an unnamed namespace,
each file's its own.

alsimdplanar.cpp and the kernel test are built without contraction,
reassociation or reciprocals on GCC and Clang, and MSVC holds the
planar kernels to the same with a float_control pragma. clang-cl took
neither: the pragma is guarded off under Clang, and the options were
given to GCC and Clang alone, so a touch could land a unit in the last
place from its vertex's coordinate. clang-cl now takes the options too,
through /clang:.

The avatar meshes' triangles are ordered for the vertex cache as they
load. Hair, skirt and eyelashes are drawn blended, the hair and skirt
in a first pass that writes no depth with culling off, so their
triangles blend over one another in the order they come: ordering
them for the cache changed how their layers composite. They keep the
order of their files.

A rigged mesh face reads its weights vertex by vertex until the array
runs out, and warned when it ran out early, leaving the vertices past
it with what their allocation held: a weld key and skinning weights of
heap garbage. They take the weight a vertex with no influence gets,
all of it on the first joint.

cacheOptimize caught a bad allocation by showing the out-of-memory
alert and raising a fatal error, on the mesh threads, where neither may
run; a mesh face with an index list of a few hundred megabytes, small
compressed, could raise it. The allocations that throw, the scratch and
meshoptimizer's, are all made before the face's buffers are replaced,
so it now warns and returns false, and the LOD fails to load as any
other bad one does.

A flexible prim is first built before it has a pose, on two stations
at one place, and its sides have no area: every vertex takes +Z, and
the planar normal made from them then was one plane facing +Z, kept
through every partial build. A flexible prim of one section never
builds in full again, so every planar coordinate made after it, on a
texture change, a touch or a normal map's frame, was projected along
z. A face with no area now keeps nothing, and its planar normal is
made again at the next call; a face of one normal still projects along
it. The area leaves out a triangle two of whose corners are one place,
whose cross product a fused multiply-add leaves as rounding.

… stitching
A sculpt whose map is missing or has no area shows a sphere laid out as
a sphere sculpt's map is sampled, but createSide joined its seams and
poles as its own stitching does: a torus sculpt's placeholder summed
its north pole with its south and left both poles' normals level, and
a plane's left its seam open. The placeholder now takes the sphere's
stitching.

A vertex with no normal of its own takes one from its column, or its
row, or failing both from the nearest ring around it, which it searched
ring by ring on its own. A shared sculpt whose map collapses most of
its grid sent nearly every vertex to the rings, about a million checks
a face at LOD 3. Those vertices now take theirs from one search outward
from every normal of its own at once, a ring at a time. Among the
nearest in a ring, the one it gives may be another than the ring search
gave.

A face simplified on its own locked every vertex at a position another
face shares. Faces that lie over one another, as a garment's inside is
a copy of its outside with a material of its own, share every
position, so Precise mode locked them whole and left them at full
detail. A vertex is now locked where a shared position lies on a face's
open border, which keeps the seam between two faces that meet closed,
and a face lying over another is free inside its borders.

One texture coordinate that is not a number made its face's texture
density not a number, which counted as none: the whole face's
coordinates weighed nothing in the simplifier's error, and a plane that
bent texture across it held up at 26 triangles fell to 6. Such a
coordinate is left out of the face's area and least coordinates, and
weighs nothing itself.

A sloppy pass that removed too much is run again at a smaller
decimator, which brings its ratio down, toward the target; the check
that went back to the first pass when the correction did not work went
back whenever the ratio came down, which a correction that worked
always does. It goes back where the correction failed or came out
further from the target.

meshoptimizer 1.3#4 fixes four faults a review found in 1.3#3's compatible
tangents. A sphere's pole whose UVs pinch to one point left its tangent
group whole from 78 triangles, giving its pole corners an arbitrary
direction; such a group is now split as MikkTSpace splits it, to rounding,
still in linear time. One corner whose tangent is not a number no longer
makes its group's tangents so. A triangle that names one vertex twice at a
position that is not a number no longer pairs a corner's two edges with
each other. And the vertex weld, which hashed UVs only as u ^ v, no longer
takes 4.6 s for 65,535 vertices at one position with u == v: it hashes
every bit, and sorts when its table probes too long. Over the mesh cache,
45,820 faces hash the same out of meshoptimizer and out of cacheOptimize
as on 1.3#1, and llmath_tests gives the same results. The baseline moves
to 1898932, which changes no other port.

Stop using a volume marked as loaded when cacheOptimize fails.
LLVolume::unpackVolumeFacesInternal treats a false return from cacheOptimize(true) as fatal. It clears the faces and returns false. The local mesh loader logs the failure and continues. It then calls setMeshAssetLoaded(true) on a volume whose faces were never optimized and may lack tangents. LLVolume asserts that a loaded mesh asset has tangents, so a debug build can trip that assertion. Release builds can reach code that reads mTangents without a null check. A failing cacheOptimize call can return false for a local mesh with a zero component in mNormalizedScale. That state is feasible for user-supplied geometry.
Suggested fix
if (!part.mVolume->cacheOptimize(true))
{
LL_WARNS("LocalMesh") << "cacheOptimize failed for '" << mShortName << "'" << LL_ENDL;
+ continue; // Do not mark this part loaded or keep it.
}
The continue assumes that the enclosing loop owns the part and that part.mVolume is reference-counted. If it is a raw pointer, delete it before continue. If every part fails, the existing parts.empty() branch keeps the previous geometry.

Update the local mesh loading flow that calls LLVolumeFace::cacheOptimize(true)
so a false result prevents that volume from being retained or marked loaded;
preserve the existing failure handling for successfully optimized parts.

The fixes from a review of the whole prim generation stack (#556 to #562) for defects, correctness, performance and efficiency. One commit a fix, each with a test that fails without it where one could be written.
Generation (
llvolume.cpp)normalize3_or_markkept w scaled with the sum, and the sphere placeholder left the w of the mesh rows its resize adds uninitialized. Under FMA, at LOD 2 and 3, its last rows took a neighbour's normal or the whole face got +Z.Kernels
grid_quadscounts a line's first lane in its own line on compilers that turn its division into a multiply by a reciprocal, which-freciprocal-mathlets Clang do. For widths such as 41, 47 and 55 the line's first quad was otherwise dropped from the tangents. I checked the effect, not the transform: a test build that multiplies by the reciprocal drops those quads, but I haven't confirmed in a Clang build that Clang makes the multiply. The new test runs those widths outside the strict TU.Viewer
Media zoom uses the face's planar normal, or the camera's direction where the face has none. Prim normals point straight out of their surfaces, caps face out, and a flexible prim rebuilds in place #556's fix made the summed vertex normals live, and on a closed face they point at its seam.
A GLTF primitive is no longer reordered for the vertex cache as it loads. Only the uploader loads GLTF assets. The uploader orders a face too big for 16-bit indices again when it splits it, and every viewer orders mesh faces on decode, so this order reached no one.
Dependencies
cacheOptimizeas on 1.3#1.Uploader
ALMeshSimplifieris an object that prepares its model once. Before, every call rebuilt the attributes, densities, remap and extent: once per face in Precise and Sloppy modes, and once per attempt in Auto.Second review pass
A second review of the whole stack, this PR included, found these. Two of them came from this PR's own fixes.
llmath_testslinked the strict kernel test's copies in place of the library's fast-math ones. That covered the library entry points and every prim, sculpt and tangent case inllvolume_test, so no fast-math defect could fail them. The per-tiersimd_testsbinaries mixed their tier's copies with the tree tier's the same way./clang:. It got neither the GCC/Clang options nor MSVC's pragma.cacheOptimizenow fails the LOD. It used to show the alert and raise a fatal error on a mesh thread.Not changed, by decision: when a profile begin cut lands one cut quantum short of a step, LL's code drops the begin point and shifts the face IDs by one side. Face numbering has to match the server, so it stays as LL has it.
Left for later
Testing
The meshoptimizer bump was verified in its own tree against the 1.3#3 and then the 1.3#4 port. It gives the same
llmath_testsresults as 1.3#1, the hidden real-corpus test passes on all 8 shards, and a fuzz over 1.2M random meshes and 6M adversarial cases matches 1.3#1 bit for bit with the budget removed. The rest of this section was run here, against the build tree's own meshoptimizer.Built on Windows x64 (MSVC, RelWithDebInfo, AVX2 tier):
llmath_tests, the baseline, v2 and v4simd_tests, andllprimitive_testsall pass. That is 45 CTest entries, including the one[!shouldfail]tapered side.llvovolume.cpp,llmodelpreview.cppandgltf/primitive.cppcompile, and so does llappearance; the viewer wasn't linked or run.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
