+# Build the punktfunk-host / punktfunk-client / punktfunk-web pacman packages from
+# packaging/arch/PKGBUILD and publish them to Gitea's Arch package registry, so Arch boxes
+# get new builds via `pacman -Syu`. Counterpart to deb.yml (apt) and rpm.yml (dnf/rpm-ostree).
+# Arch is rolling, so the packages build against whatever the archlinux:base-devel container
+# resolves today — the same sonames an up-to-date Arch box runs.
+#
+# Registry (public, unom org) — box setup (once), see packaging/arch/README.md. The registry
+# SIGNS the DB + packages, so the box imports the registry key first (pacman-key --add +
+# --lsign-key), then no SigLevel line is needed (pacman's default Required verifies):
+#   [punktfunk]                         # or [punktfunk-canary] for main-push builds
+#   Server = https://git.unom.io/api/packages/unom/arch/$repo/$arch
+#
+# REGISTRY_TOKEN: repo Actions secret, a PAT with write:package scope (shared with docker.yml).
+# NOTE: this token + the registry-held private key are the trust root — a token holder can
+# publish a validly-signed package (the signature attests "via the registry", not "built by CI").

+title: Arch Linux
+description: Install a punktfunk host on Arch (and Arch-derived distros) from the signed pacman binary repo.
+---
+
+Set up a punktfunk host on **Arch Linux** (or an Arch-derived distro like CachyOS/EndeavourOS). The
+host installs from a **signed pacman binary repo**, so it updates with `pacman -Syu` like the rest
+of your system — no building required. Host encode is **NVENC on NVIDIA** and **VAAPI on
+AMD/Intel** (`PUNKTFUNK_ENCODER=auto` picks per GPU).
+
+> New here? Read [Security & Safe Use](/docs/security) first — a streaming host is remote control of
+> the machine, so keep it on a trusted LAN or VPN and require pairing.
+
+> Prefer to build it yourself? A split `PKGBUILD` (host + client + optional web console) is in the
+> repo at `packaging/arch/` — see the [appendix](#appendix--build-from-source-pkgbuild). The binary
+> repo below is the supported path.
+
+## 1. GPU prerequisites
+
+- **NVIDIA:** `sudo pacman -S --needed nvidia-utils` (provides NVENC + the EGL/CUDA zero-copy path).
+  Arch's stock `ffmpeg` already has NVENC built in — no RPM-Fusion-style swap like Fedora needs.
+- **AMD / Intel:** the Mesa stack (`mesa`, `libva-mesa-driver` for AMD, `intel-media-driver` for
+  Intel) provides the VAAPI encoder — usually already installed on a desktop.
+
+## 2. Add the signed repo
+
+The registry **signs its database and every package**, so first trust its key once (after this,
+packages install signature-verified):
+
+```sh
+# Trust the registry signing key.
+curl -fsS https://git.unom.io/api/packages/unom/arch/repository.key \
+  | sudo pacman-key --add -
+sudo pacman-key --lsign-key E0CA04465C99C936E0B0C6510A317015A34DDD69
+
+# Add the repo (append to /etc/pacman.conf). No SigLevel line needed — pacman's default
+# verifies signed packages against the key you just trusted.
+sudo tee -a /etc/pacman.conf >/dev/null <<'EOF'
+
+[punktfunk]
+Server = https://git.unom.io/api/packages/unom/arch/$repo/$arch
+EOF
+```
+
+> **Stable vs canary.** `[punktfunk]` is the **stable** channel — it moves only when a `vX.Y.Z`
+> release is cut. For the latest `main` build, use `[punktfunk-canary]` instead (same `Server` line,
+> just the repo name). Enable exactly one. See [Release Channels](/docs/channels).
+
+## 3. Install the host
+
+```sh
+sudo pacman -Sy punktfunk-host      # the streaming host
+sudo pacman -S  punktfunk-web       # optional: the browser management console (pairing + status)
+sudo usermod -aG input "$USER"      # /dev/uinput access for virtual gamepads (re-login to apply)
+```
+
+`punktfunk-client` (the GTK4 couch/Deck client) is in the same repo if this box is also a client.
+The host package ships the systemd **user** units, the udev rule, the UDP socket-buffer sysctl
+tuning, and example configs. Updates later are just `sudo pacman -Syu`.
+
+## 4. Configure and run
+
+The host runs as a systemd **`--user`** service — it needs your session's PipeWire and D-Bus.
+Copy a starting config, enable the service, and enable linger so it starts at boot without a login:
+
+```sh
+mkdir -p ~/.config/punktfunk
+cp /usr/share/punktfunk/host.env.example ~/.config/punktfunk/host.env   # then edit
+systemctl --user daemon-reload
+systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-host
+sudo loginctl enable-linger "$USER"
+```
+
+Which compositor the host captures depends on your desktop — it drives a per-client virtual output
+via KWin (Plasma), Mutter (GNOME), or wlroots (Sway), or spawns a headless **gamescope** session
+per connect. For a headless appliance, the package also ships `punktfunk-kde-session.service`
+(a dedicated `kwin --virtual` session, same as the [Fedora KDE](/docs/fedora-kde#3-kwin-streaming-session)
+guide — `cp /usr/share/punktfunk/host.env.kde ~/.config/punktfunk/host.env` and enable it alongside
+the host). See [Configuration](/docs/configuration) for every knob and
+[Running as a Service](/docs/running-as-a-service) for the service model.
+
+Check it came up:
+
+```sh
+systemctl --user status punktfunk-host          # active
+journalctl --user -u punktfunk-host -f          # watch a client connect
+```
+
+### Web console
+
+The console (status, paired devices, arm pairing) ships as `punktfunk-web` — enable it, then open
+`http://<host-ip>:47992`:
+
+```sh
+systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-web
+```
+
+#### Console login password
+
+On first start `punktfunk-web-init` generates a random login password and saves it to
+`~/.config/punktfunk/web-password` (as `PUNKTFUNK_UI_PASSWORD=…`). Read it back at any time:
+
+```sh
+journalctl --user -u punktfunk-web-init | sed -n 's/.*password generated: //p'
+sed -n 's/^PUNKTFUNK_UI_PASSWORD=//p' ~/.config/punktfunk/web-password
+```
+
+To set your own, edit that file and `systemctl --user restart punktfunk-web`. Forgot it? See
+[Forgot your Password?](/docs/forgot-password).
+
+## 5. Connect a client
+
+From any [client](/docs/clients), `--discover` finds the host on the LAN. On first connect, complete
+the **PIN pairing** — arm it from the host's web console, which displays a 4-digit PIN to type into
+the client. (Pairing is required by default; pass `serve --open` only if you deliberately want to
+disable it.) See [Clients](/docs/clients) and [Pairing](/docs/pairing).
+
+## Appendix — build from source (PKGBUILD)
+
+To build instead of using the binary repo, use the split `PKGBUILD` in `packaging/arch/` (produces
+`punktfunk-host` + `punktfunk-client`; set `PF_WITH_WEB=1` to also build `punktfunk-web`, which needs
+`bun`):
+
+```sh
+git clone https://git.unom.io/unom/punktfunk.git && cd punktfunk/packaging/arch
+# Build the working tree (no git fetch):
+PF_SRCDIR="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)" makepkg -f --holdver
+sudo pacman -U punktfunk-host-*.pkg.tar.zst
+```
+
+NVENC/EGL come from the NVIDIA driver (`nvidia-utils`); on a GPU-less builder, symlink the CUDA
+stub into the link path first (the `PKGBUILD` header documents this). Full details, the
+Fedora→Arch dependency map, and the SteamOS systemd-sysext path are in
+[`packaging/arch/README.md`](https://git.unom.io/unom/punktfunk/src/branch/main/packaging/arch/README.md).

 ## Install

-The host ships as an RPM in punktfunk's **Gitea RPM registry** (public), so a Bazzite / Fedora
-Atomic box layers and updates it with `rpm-ostree`. Add the repo, then layer the host plus the web
-console and reboot:
+The host installs as a **systemd system extension (sysext)** — no `rpm-ostree` layering. The
+Bazzite docs treat layering as a last resort (layered packages slow every OS update and can block
+upgrades until removed); a sysext never enters an rpm-ostree transaction: it overlays `/usr`
+read-only from `/var/lib/extensions/`, survives OS updates, installs and updates **without a
+reboot**, and is removable in one command. This is the same mechanism the Fedora Atomic
+maintainers ship via the [fedora-sysexts](https://fedora-sysexts.github.io/) project.

 ```

-`rpm-ostree upgrade` then tracks new builds automatically (Bazzite's auto-update timer does this
-for you). For a fully baked appliance image there's also a **bootc** Containerfile that installs
-the same RPMs from this registry — see `packaging/bootc/` and `packaging/rpm/README.md` in the repo.
-Building from source works too (Bazzite is Fedora Atomic underneath, and its FFmpeg builds the host
-fine — same steps as [Fedora KDE](/docs/fedora-kde)), but the registry is the supported path.
+That downloads the newest image (host + tray + web console, SHA-256-verified over HTTPS from
+punktfunk's package registry), merges it, and applies the udev/sysctl setup on the spot — the
+host is usable immediately, no reboot. From then on:
+
+```sh
+sudo punktfunk-sysext update     # fetch + merge the newest build
+sudo punktfunk-sysext status     # channel, installed vs latest version
+sudo punktfunk-sysext remove     # unmerge and delete — the box is back to stock
+```
+
+Two things to know:
+
+- **After a Bazzite major rebase** (Fedora 43 → 44) the old image **refuses to load** rather than
+  run against mismatched system libraries — run `sudo punktfunk-sysext update` once and it fetches
+  the image built for the new base.
+- **Already layering punktfunk?** Install the sysext (it shadows the layered copy immediately),
+  then drop the layer so it stops slowing your updates:
+  `sudo rpm-ostree uninstall punktfunk punktfunk-web && systemctl reboot`.
+
+For a fully baked appliance image there's also a **bootc** Containerfile that installs the RPMs
+from the registry at image-build time — see `packaging/bootc/` in the repo. Plain `rpm-ostree`
+layering from the [RPM registry](https://git.unom.io/unom/-/packages) keeps working too (see
+`packaging/bazzite/README.md`), but the sysext is the supported default. Building from source
+also works (Bazzite is Fedora Atomic underneath — same steps as [Fedora KDE](/docs/fedora-kde)).

+There are three paths on Bazzite, driven by different files in `packaging/`:

 | Path | Driven by | What it does | Best for |
 |---|---|---|---|
-| **A — rpm-ostree layering** | `packaging/copr/README.md` + `packaging/rpm/punktfunk.spec` | Layers the `punktfunk` RPM onto your existing Bazzite deployment with `rpm-ostree install` | One host, quick iteration |
+| **A — systemd-sysext** ✅ recommended | `packaging/bazzite/punktfunk-sysext.sh` + `build-sysext.sh` (published by `.gitea/workflows/rpm.yml`) | Overlays the host onto `/usr` as a system extension — no layering, no reboot, one-command updates | Everyone; the default |
 | **B — bootc / OCI image** | `packaging/bootc/Containerfile` | Bakes punktfunk into a `FROM bazzite-nvidia` image once; you `bootc switch` any number of hosts onto it | Fleets, reproducible appliances, no per-host drift |
+| **C — rpm-ostree layering** (legacy) | `packaging/rpm/` + the Gitea RPM registry | Layers the `punktfunk` RPM onto your deployment with `rpm-ostree install` | Only if you specifically want the RPM database to own the files |

-**Trade-off:** Path A is a per-host package layer — simple, but each host accumulates its own
-layered-package state. Path B builds one image (RPM Fusion + the Gitea RPM repo + the host and
-**web console** + udev rule pre-installed) that you push to a registry and rebase hosts onto
-atomically — no per-host `rpm-ostree install` drift, at the cost of running a `podman build`/`push`
-pipeline. Both require the **same first-run setup** (sections 3–6); note Path B installs from the
-**Gitea RPM registry** (which carries `punktfunk-web`), whereas Path A's COPR builds host+client
-only — for the web console on Path A, layer from the Gitea registry instead (`../rpm/README.md`).
+**Why A over C:** the Bazzite docs treat layering as a last resort — every layered package makes
+every OS update slower and can **block upgrades entirely** until removed. A sysext never enters an
+rpm-ostree transaction: it merges/unmerges at runtime, survives OS updates, and updating punktfunk
+is one command with **no reboot** (layering needs one per update). It's the mechanism the Fedora
+Atomic maintainers ship via [fedora-sysexts](https://fedora-sysexts.github.io/). All paths require
+the **same first-run setup** (sections 3–6).

-### Path A — rpm-ostree layering from the COPR
+### Path A — systemd-sysext (recommended)
+
+Run on the Bazzite host:
+
+```sh
+# One-time bootstrap; afterwards the tool is on PATH as `punktfunk-sysext` (it ships inside
+# the image). `--channel canary` for rolling main-branch builds instead of releases.
+curl -fsSLO https://git.unom.io/unom/punktfunk/raw/branch/main/packaging/bazzite/punktfunk-sysext.sh
+sudo bash punktfunk-sysext.sh install
+```
+
+This downloads the newest image for your Fedora base (host + tray + **web console**,
+SHA-256-verified from the feed `…/packages/unom/generic/punktfunk-sysext/f<ver>[-canary]/`),
+installs it as `/var/lib/extensions/punktfunk.raw`, merges it, and immediately applies what the
+RPM scriptlets would have (udev reload, sysctl) plus the two `/etc` files a sysext can't carry
+(the gamescope-session drop-in and the tray autostart entry, staged under
+`/usr/share/punktfunk/etc/`). No reboot at any point. Day-2:
+
+```sh
+sudo punktfunk-sysext update    # fetch + merge the newest build (then restart the user service)
+sudo punktfunk-sysext status    # merged?, installed vs latest, channel/feed
+sudo punktfunk-sysext remove    # unmerge + delete; ~/.config/punktfunk is left alone
+```
+
+Details worth knowing:
+
+- The image embeds `ID=fedora` + `VERSION_ID` (matched through Bazzite's `ID_LIKE`), so after a
+  **major Bazzite rebase** (F43 → F44) the old image is **refused** instead of merging
+  soname-broken binaries — `punktfunk-sysext update` then fetches the image built for the new
+  base (feeds exist per Fedora major, from the same CI matrix as the RPM groups).
+- SELinux labels are baked into the image at build time (squashfs pseudo-xattrs computed from
+  the targeted policy) — without them udev couldn't read the gamepad rule under enforcing.
+  Validated live on Bazzite 43.
+- **Migrating from layering (path C):** install the sysext (it shadows the layered copy at
+  once), then `sudo rpm-ostree uninstall punktfunk punktfunk-web && systemctl reboot`.
+
+### Path B — bootc image (`FROM bazzite-nvidia`)
+
+The image is built **off-host** (on any machine with `podman`) from
+`packaging/bootc/Containerfile`, which bases on `ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite-nvidia:stable`
+(override with `--build-arg BASE_IMAGE=…`), enables RPM Fusion free + nonfree, adds the Gitea RPM
+repo (`--build-arg PUNKTFUNK_RPM_GROUP=…`, default `bazzite`), and installs the host **and the web
+console** (`punktfunk punktfunk-web`). It uses the Gitea registry rather than the COPR specifically

enricobuehler	d6a659a1ee	feat(packaging/arch): distribute binary packages via the Gitea Arch registry New arch.yml builds the split PKGBUILD (host/client/web, PF_WITH_WEB=1) in an archlinux:base-devel container on every push and publishes to the pacman repos 'punktfunk' (tags) / 'punktfunk-canary' (main, X.Y.Z-0.<run#> — pkgrel allows only digits+dots, so the run number carries the ordering). Consumers add one pacman.conf section; no more build-it-yourself as the only Arch path. PKGBUILD: pkgver/pkgrel env-driven (PF_PKGVER/PF_PKGREL), source=() when PF_SRCDIR is set (a canary version has no tag to clone), stale NVENC-only header fixed, and options=('!lto' '!debug') — makepkg's lto option injects -flto=auto into CFLAGS, aws-lc-sys compiles its C with it, and rust's lld cannot read GCC LTO bitcode: 'undefined symbol: aws_lc_*' at link (reproduced minimally on Arch + rust 1.90). Full build + clean-container install smoke-tested locally (binaries run, payload + scriptlets intact). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-04 16:39:01 +00:00
enricobuehler	2190dad2ad	feat(packaging/bazzite): systemd-sysext replaces rpm-ostree layering as the primary install path Layering is a last resort per the Bazzite docs (slows every OS update, can block upgrades until removed); a sysext never enters an rpm-ostree transaction, survives OS updates, and installs/updates with no reboot — the mechanism Fedora Atomic ships via fedora-sysexts. - build-sysext.sh wraps the built host+web RPMs into punktfunk-<V-R>-x86-64.raw: /etc payload relocated to /usr/share/punktfunk/etc (a sysext carries only /usr), the punktfunk-sysext helper embedded, ID=fedora + VERSION_ID pinned (merges on Bazzite via ID_LIKE; REFUSED after a major rebase instead of running soname-broken binaries — both behaviors validated live on Bazzite 43). SELinux labels are baked in as squashfs pseudo-xattrs from matchpathcon: unlabeled files run fine for user units but system daemons are DENIED (udev couldn't read the gamepad rule under enforcing) — validated on-glass. Refuses duplicate input package names (a stale noarch punktfunk-web next to the x86_64 one built a chimera image with the dead node launcher once). - punktfunk-sysext.sh: install/update/status/remove against per-Fedora-major feeds (…/generic/punktfunk-sysext/f43[-canary]), SHA-256-verified, applies the udev/sysctl scriptlet work + /etc copies, prints the layering-migration hint. Live-validated on the .41 Bazzite box incl. service restart + web console. - publish-sysext-feed.sh + rpm.yml: build + publish the image per matrix leg (fedver 43/44), canary feeds pruned to 6, stable release assets attached. - update-punktfunk.sh warns when the sysext shadows a layered install.

enricobuehler	7930d2f0f4	fix(core): split WIRE_VERSION from ABI_VERSION — new clients locked out of every deployed host ABI_VERSION was doing double duty: the embeddable C surface AND the punktfunk/1 Hello/Welcome version that hosts equality-check. The WoL feature's v3 bump added a client-local FFI function without changing a single wire byte — and every new client started refusing against every deployed host ("ABI mismatch: client 3 host 2", observed live Deck → Bazzite). The wire now carries its own WIRE_VERSION (still 2); ABI_VERSION stays 3 for the C header and the mgmt API's informational field. Bump WIRE_VERSION only when the handshake/planes actually change incompatibly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-04 14:29:33 +00:00
