Brings the cursor channel to Windows hosts. The pf-vdisplay driver declares an IddCx hardware cursor for sessions that negotiated cursor-forward — DWM then EXCLUDES the pointer from the IDD frame and delivers shape/position out-of-band, into the same CursorOverlay → forwarder → wire → client pipeline the Linux portal path uses. - pf-driver-proto v5 (additive, host floor stays 3): AddRequest's spare tail becomes hw_cursor (same size/offsets); IOCTL_SET_CURSOR_CHANNEL delivers a host-created CursorShm section (64-byte seqlock header + 256² shape buffer, layout pinned + tested). No event crosses the boundary — the host polls at encode-tick pace. - driver: wdk-iddcx grows the two cursor DDI wrappers; a per-monitor cursor worker (event wait → QueryHardwareCursor → seqlock publish) starts only when BOTH the ADD asked and the channel arrived, so a failed delivery leaves DWM compositing as today. Shape bytes ship raw (BGRA/masked + pitch); the host converts. - host: the section rides the existing sealed-channel broker (least- privilege dup, remote reap on failure); IddPushCapturer::cursor() seqlock-reads → CursorOverlay (BGRA→RGBA, masked-color approximation, desktop→frame origin shift, per-shape conversion cache). New Capturer::cursor() trait hook — the encode loop prefers it over the frame-attached overlay because hardware-cursor moves produce NO new frame on a static desktop. hw_cursor survives the re-arrival resize (carried on the manager's Monitor). - negotiation: cursor_forward grows the Windows arm (client cap ∧ driver proto ≥ 5, probed once via the control device); SessionPlan carries cursor_forward → OutputFormat.hw_cursor. - drive-by: wdk-probe's two pre-existing same-type casts (clippy) and pf-vdisplay's stale spike-test refs (crate::win_display moved to pf-win-display; tracing-subscriber was never a dep) repaired. Verified: proto tests on Mac AND MSVC (15/15 incl. the CursorShm layout pin); clippy -D warnings for proto/frame/capture/vdisplay/host on Linux (.21) and native Windows (.173); the DRIVER workspace clippy -D warnings green against the real WDK 10.0.26100 bindgen (DDI names, enum variants and IDARG layouts all bind). On-box driver deploy + on-glass validation follow. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
pf-driver-proto
The shared host ↔ driver binary contract for punktfunk's Windows pf-vdisplay virtual display — the control IOCTLs and the IDD-push frame transport, defined exactly once.
It's a path dependency of both the host workspace (crates/punktfunk-host)
and the out-of-workspace driver workspace (packaging/windows/drivers/),
so it must resolve identically from either build graph. That's why it's deliberately self-contained:
no_std (+ alloc), platform-neutral (GUID/LUID are plain integers each side converts to its own OS
type), and free of *.workspace = true inheritance.
Defining every wire struct here — with const size/offset asserts and bytemuck round-trips — turns
host↔driver ABI drift into a compile error instead of a silent frame or IOCTL corruption.
See the crate root (src/) for the wire types; the Windows virtual-display design is in
the internal planning repo (punktfunk-planning: windows-virtual-display-rust-port.md).
