Two disk-write fixes:
- pf-xusb/pf-dualsense no longer write C:\Users\Public\pf*-driver.log
unconditionally — the file log is now opt-in (debug builds, or the
PFXUSB_DEBUG_LOG / PFDS_DEBUG_LOG system env var), mirroring the audit-§4.4
fix pf-vdisplay already got: a release driver never writes the world-writable
Public file (info-leak/DoS surface), and the per-report OUTPUT/SET_STATE hex
dumps stop being a sustained per-rumble disk-write path during gameplay.
OutputDebugStringA stays unconditional; the host's driver-silence WARN and
the gamepad-driver-health failure-mode table now say the log is opt-in.
- service.log/host.log get one-generation rotation: at each (re)open a file
over 10 MB is renamed to .old, so a crash-restart loop or a RUST_LOG=debug
left in host.env can't grow the append-forever logs without bound. Rotation
runs only before an open (never under a live appender — host.log's handle
lacks FILE_SHARE_DELETE, so a racing rename harmlessly fails).
Windows CI compile/clippy pending (drivers workspace + host are not
Linux-cross-checkable); rides along with the next pad-driver redeploy.

Frame ring (pf-vdisplay) and both gamepad SHM channels move off named Global\
objects (openable by any sibling LocalService) to UNNAMED sections/events whose
handles the host DuplicateHandles into the driver's verified WUDFHost with least
access — frame delivery over the SYSTEM+admins-only IOCTL_SET_FRAME_CHANNEL,
pads over a 32-byte named bootstrap mailbox (pid + handle value only, DoS-bounded;
HID minidrivers have no control device). Driver-validated pad_index kills
cross-pad redirects; v1↔v2 mixes fail closed with diagnosis logs on both sides.
Sibling-LocalService denial proven empirically (design/idd-push-security.md,
design/gamepad-channel-sealing.md).
Driver-side raw ops now live behind pf-umdf-util (checked shm accessors, the
forbid(unsafe_code) ChannelClient state machine, WDF request tokens) — the pad
drivers' logic is 100% safe Rust; whole drivers workspace clippy-gated in CI.
driver install --gamepad now sweeps SWD\punktfunk phantom devnodes: a re-created
SwDevice REVIVES the old devnode with its previously-bound driver (never
re-ranks), so an upgrade otherwise leaves the old driver serving — or, across
the v1→v2 fence, a dead pad (found live on the RTX box).
On-glass validated on the RTX 4090 box: frame path 7007 frames p50 2.06 ms
cross-machine; DualSense + XUSB "sealed pad channel mapped"/proto=2 attach via
both the test harness and a real streaming session; phantom-sweep repro.

The gamepad drivers have no IOCTL plane (hidclass gates the stack), so
until now the host had ZERO visibility into whether a driver ever
bound: a pad could be "created" with no driver installed and nothing
was logged. Two health fields are carved from reserved shm space
(layout-compatible; pf-driver-proto pins the offsets): driver_proto —
stamped by pf-xusb at device add + per serviced XInput IOCTL (movement
= the game-visible path) and by pf-dualsense/DS4 from its ~125Hz timer
— and driver_heartbeat. Host-side, every pad owns a DriverAttach
watcher fed from the existing service() poll: INFO on attach (WARN on
proto mismatch), and after 3s of silence ONE diagnosis WARN combining
a cached pnputil /enum-drivers store check, the devnode's CM problem
code (CM_Locate_DevNodeW/CM_Get_DevNode_Status on the instance id now
captured from the create callback, with plain-language hints: 28 = not
installed, 52 = signature/Memory Integrity, …) and the driver's debug
log path. Also fixes a real bug both SwDeviceCreate wrappers shared:
the 10s WaitForSingleObject result was ignored and the callback
HRESULT zero-initialised, so a PnP timeout read as SUCCESS (now E_FAIL
init + explicit timeout error). Failure-mode table:
design/gamepad-driver-health.md.
Linux workspace green; Windows host + drivers CI-compile only, on-box
recipe at the bottom of the design doc.

Fold the pf-dualsense (DualSense / DualShock 4) and pf-xusb (Xbox 360 / XInput)
UMDF drivers into the in-tree drivers workspace (their source had stale
../../crates/wdk-* path-deps from before the wdk vendoring reorg and could no
longer build at all) and build them from source per release, exactly like
pf-vdisplay - same anti-stale reasoning. One `cargo build --release` now builds
all three drivers against the vendored wdk-sys (incl. the bindgen 0.72 pin), and
build-gamepad-drivers.ps1 signs pf_dualsense + pf_xusb (clear FORCE_INTEGRITY ->
sign dll -> stampinf -> Inf2Cat -> sign cat) with one shared cert + .cer,
matching the layout install-gamepad-drivers.ps1 expects. pack-host-installer.ps1
builds + stages them instead of the retired checked-in binaries.
Validated on the runner: the whole workspace (pf-vdisplay + pf-dualsense +
pf-xusb) builds with CARGO_TARGET_DIR=C:\t set, and build-gamepad-drivers.ps1
produces signed pf_dualsense.{dll,inf,cat} + pf_xusb.{dll,inf,cat} + the .cer.
