Fix emissive volumes generates unexpected fireflies around intersections Discard the whole volume stack on the last bounce (but keep world volume if present). Volumes are expected to be closed manifol meshes, meaning if ray entered the volume there should be an intersection event of ray exisintg the volume. Case when ray hit nothing and there are still non-world volumes in the stack can happen in either of cases. 1. Mesh is not closed manifold. Such configurations are not really supported anyway and should not be used. Previous code would have consider the infinite length of the ray to sample across, so render result wasn't really correct anyway. 2. Exit intersection is more far away than the camera far clip distance. This case also will behave differently now, but previously it wasn't really correct either, so it's not like we're breaking something which was working as expected. 3. We missed exit event due to intersection precision issues. This is exact the case which this patch fixes and avoid fireflies. 4. Volume has Camera only visibility (all the rest visibility is set to off) This is what could be considered a regression but could be solved quite easily by checking volume stack's objects flags and keep entries which doesn't have Volume Scatter visibility (or even better: ensure Volume Scatter visibility for objects with volume closure), Fixes T46108: Cycles - Overlapping emissive volumes generates unexpected bright hotspots around the intersection Also fixes fireflies appearing on the edges of cube with emissive volue.
