Everything the 2026-08-03 haptics sweep filed against the pad-audio branch (P2 + P3). Four of them are the difference between a feature that works and one that fails silently. **B6 — nothing ever un-muted the coils.** Every rumble report asserts `HAPTICS_SELECT`, which is SDL's "disable audio haptics" bit: the firmware mutes the very voice coils the 0xD1 stream drives. No code anywhere cleared it again, so ONE rumble left tier-A haptics silent for the rest of that pad's life — no error, nothing in a log, and the host happily streaming into a muted actuator. `DsDevice.ds5AudioHapticsReport` is the documented undo (flag0 with both bits clear); written EP0-direct when the stream starts and again after a rumble stop while a stream is live, because the stop report re-mutes on its way past. **B10 — the desktop mix could reach a controller's coils.** Pad endpoints were filtered out inside `plan()` only. The watchdog, Follow mode and the parked default all go through `judge_default`, which classifies by NAME — and a pad endpoint is deliberately stamped "DualSense Wireless Controller" so games treat it as the pad's speaker. No name rule could ever catch one. It now refuses them by identity. **B27 — an out-of-range pad aliased onto a real slot.** The 0xCD plane's pad is the only u16 index and every consumer narrowed it with `as u8` on an assumption nothing enforced, so wire pad 256 steered pad 0's speaker volumes. Rejected at the decoder, which makes the narrowings lossless by construction. An existing test had pinned the bug in place, asserting that wire pad 513 round-trips; corrected, plus a test for the 256→0 alias specifically. **B7 — caps that arrived late were never announced.** The renderer commits the tier-A trade only once its sink opens, which is well past the arrival burst's two 100 ms ticks, and `set_pad_audio_caps` only stored an atomic. The client believed it had pad audio while the host emitted nothing. The input task now compares the live registry against what the last arrival actually carried and re-arms the burst itself — no new plumbing, and no extra traffic when nothing changed. The rest: `needs_aeb_kick` is finally ACTED on (R4) — a stored-but-not-served endpoint is declined rather than opened, because `AUTOCONVERTPCM` makes it succeed and mis-route; a failed provisioning no longer latches `PROVISIONED` for the process lifetime (R5), and `host_cap` retries, so a host that started while the audio stack was busy recovers at the next connect instead of the next reboot; the loopback init timeout reaps its thread instead of detaching one per ~2 s reopen (R6); kind-change restarts are bounded (R3) since the trigger is a client-sent arrival; the devtest uses the endpoint's real channel mask (B11) instead of letting wasapi derive 0x0F against the endpoint's 0x33; the render loop asks `is_session_ended()` rather than spinning at nice -16 (R12); short writes are counted and reported instead of dropping the tail in silence (R13); and a frame addressed to another pad is dropped before it can seed the gap tracker from a foreign sequence space (R14). Verified: punktfunk-host clippy -D warnings **0 on a real Windows box**; Linux/amd64 clippy 0 with **589 tests** (pf-client-core 114, pf-inject 101, punktfunk-client-android 20, punktfunk-core 345+1+8); Android :kit: tests + :app: compile green; fmt clean. Six punktfunk-host tests fail on that Windows box. FIVE fail identically on a tree with no pad-audio code at all (QUIC `Rejected(SetupFailed)` — the box's network environment); the sixth passes 3/3 in isolation and only failed under the parallel run, on a locally-bound ephemeral port. Neither is this change. Still owed: on-glass. This is a hardware feature and none of it has been on a real DualSense since the merge.
punktfunk-core
The shared protocol core — the one place where punktfunk's transport, forward error correction, and crypto live. It's linked into the host and every native client, so there's exactly one implementation of the wire format everywhere.
Written in Rust with no async on the per-frame path (native threads only). It exposes both a normal Rust API and a stable, versioned C ABI, so the Swift and Kotlin clients — and any C embedder — link the same code as the Rust ones.
What's in here
- Transport & session (
session.rs,transport/,packet.rs) — thepunktfunk/1data plane over raw UDP: packetization, reassembly (with attacker-bounded limits), pacing, and socket tuning. - FEC (
fec/) — the wall-breaker. Two codes:- GF(2⁸) classic Reed–Solomon with the Cauchy generator matrix — byte-identical to the
nanorslibrary Moonlight uses, so our parity is decodable by a stock Moonlight client. - GF(2¹⁶) Leopard-RS (SIMD, O(n log n)) — up to 65535 shards/block, which removes the ~1 Gbps
FEC ceiling.
punktfunk/1negotiates this one.
- GF(2⁸) classic Reed–Solomon with the Cauchy generator matrix — byte-identical to the
- Crypto (
crypto.rs) — AES-128-GCM session encryption with per-direction nonce salts and sequence-as-AAD; SPAKE2 PIN pairing lives behind thequicfeature. - QUIC control plane (
quic.rs,client.rs, featurequic) — the Hello/Welcome/Start handshake, cert pinning/TOFU, reverse audio, and the embeddableNativeClientconnector. This is the only placetokio/quinnare allowed; the feature is off by default so the core stays runtime-free. - C ABI (
abi.rs) — the versioned surface (punktfunk_abi_version(),PunktfunkConfigcarrying its ownstruct_size) that generatesinclude/punktfunk_core.hvia cbindgen at build time.
Build outputs
The crate builds three ways at once (crate-type = ["lib", "cdylib", "staticlib"]):
| Output | Used by |
|---|---|
lib (rlib) |
the host, probe, and tools link it as a normal Rust crate |
cdylib (.so/.dylib) |
the Swift / Kotlin clients via the C ABI |
staticlib (.a) |
the C test harness and static embedding |
Test
cargo test -p punktfunk-core # unit + proptest + loopback
cargo run -p loss-harness # FEC loss-resilience sweep (no network needed)
bash crates/punktfunk-core/tests/c/run.sh # standalone C-ABI link + round-trip proof
Design invariants (do not regress)
- One core, linked everywhere — protocol/FEC/crypto live only here, behind the stable C ABI.
- No async on the hot path — the per-frame pipeline is native threads only;
quic(tokio/quinn) is control-plane only, feature-gated, off by default. - Security hardening stays intact — the reassembler bounds attacker-controlled fields before
allocating; AES-GCM keeps per-direction nonce salts + seq-as-AAD; the ABI checks
struct_size. Regression tests exist — keep them green.
