Enabling Motion Blur with Cycles OptiX backend yields OPTIX_ERROR_PIPELINE_OUT_OF_CONSTANT_MEMORY
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

System Information
Operating system: Windows 10
Graphics card: Quadro RTX 6000
NVidia Driver Version: 451.82

Blender Version
Broken: 2.92 Alpha - https://github.com/blender/blender/commit/ef5d6e9c457a4265467b6aca588c55ba60689ff0
Worked: 2.91 Beta - a month ago

Short description of error
Selecting the OptiX backend, enabling motion blur on a simple geometry triggers the internal OptiX error OPTIX_ERROR_PIPELINE_OUT_OF_CONSTANT_MEMORY.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
I have attached a file that demonstrates the problem. Rendering a single frame yields the following error:

OPTIX_ERROR_PIPELINE_OUT_OF_CONSTANT_MEMORY in optixPipelineCreate(context, &pipeline_options, &link_options, pipeline_groups, (sizeof(pipeline_groups) / sizeof(pipeline_groups[0])), nullptr, 0, &pipelines[PIP_PATH_TRACE]) (device_optix.cpp:593)

Rendering with CUDA / CPU works fine.

Event Timeline

I'm not able reproduce that on r455 drivers (456.71) with a RTX 2080Ti and a RTX 8000 (which would be equivalent to your 6000). Render completes with OptiX (black head, since there is no light in the scene). Could you try updating the driver on your system? And also recheck with the 2.91 build that worked before. The error points toward a system problem, since I don't believe the launch parameters have changed since 2.91 (and the size of those is the only thing that should be able to cause that error).

False alert, sorry for the trouble: One of the extensions we have in our fork uses tables in constant memory which caused the problem.
