A user-configurable policy layer above the per-compositor VirtualDisplay
backends: keep-alive, topology, conflict, identity, layout, max-displays —
persisted to display-settings.json, editable from the web console, applied
per connect. Design: design/display-management.md.
Stage 0 stands up the surface and wires the two behaviors the existing code
can already express — the Windows monitor linger duration and the
"make the streamed output the sole desktop" topology — through it; every
other option is stored + echoed but not yet enforced (later stages). An
unconfigured host (no display-settings.json) keeps today's exact behavior.
- vdisplay/policy.rs: pure DisplayPolicy + 5 presets + JSON store (gpu-settings
pattern) + EffectivePolicy; 9 unit tests.
- vdisplay.rs: resolve_topology(Auto); apply_session_env drives *_VIRTUAL_PRIMARY
from the policy only when a settings file exists.
- windows/manager.rs: linger_ms() + should_isolate() read the policy when configured.
- mgmt: GET/PUT /api/v1/display/settings (bearer-only); PUT rejects keep_alive
forever until the lifecycle stage. OpenAPI regenerated.
- web console: Host → Virtual displays card (preset picker + custom fields); en+de.
- docs-site: virtual-displays.md + configuration.md cross-links.

- new crate::gpu (compiled on all platforms so the OpenAPI doc stays
platform-independent): DXGI / sysfs GPU inventory with reboot-stable ids
(PCI vendor:device + occurrence — LUIDs are per-boot), persisted auto/manual
preference (<config>/gpu-settings.json, atomic temp+rename with in-memory
rollback), one selection with precedence console preference >
PUNKTFUNK_RENDER_ADAPTER > max VRAM and graceful fallback when the preferred
GPU is absent, plus a live "in use" record (RAII session guard wrapped around
every encoder open_video returns)
- fix: windows_gpu_vendor derived the encoder backend from DXGI adapter 0
instead of the selected render adapter — on a hybrid box (e.g. Intel iGPU at
index 0 + NVIDIA dGPU) the backend could disagree with the GPU the capture
ring / IddCx render pin sit on. The NVENC 4:4:4 probe now also runs on the
selected adapter (was: OS default), the codec/4:4:4 probe caches are keyed
per selected GPU (were process-lifetime OnceLocks), and an explicit
PUNKTFUNK_ENCODER conflicting with the selected GPU's vendor warns up front
- mgmt API: GET /api/v1/gpus (inventory + mode + preferred + next-session
selection with reason + in-use GPU/backend/session-count) and
PUT /api/v1/gpus/preference (validates mode/gpu_id before writing);
openapi.json regenerated; the vdisplay render pin now also engages for a
console preference (not just the env pin)
- web console: GPU card on the Host page — list with vendor + VRAM,
Automatic / Prefer controls, Preferred / Next session / "In use · backend"
badges, missing-preferred-GPU warning and env-pin note; en + de messages
- Linux: a matched manual preference picks the VAAPI render node and the
NVENC-vs-VAAPI auto choice; auto mode is exactly the previous behavior
Validated live on the hybrid laptop (RTX 3500 Ada + Intel Arc Pro, which
enumerates twice — the occurrence ids disambiguate): enumerate, prefer,
bad-id 400, restart persistence, auto-restore keeping the stored pick.
