The Apple client grows full gamepad support and punktfunk/1 learns to negotiate the virtual pad type: - Protocol: Hello carries a GamepadPref byte (offset 21, the same trailing-byte back-compat pattern as the compositor; echoed resolved in Welcome at 54). Host precedence: explicit client choice > PUNKTFUNK_GAMEPAD env > Xbox 360, DualSense (UHID) only where available. ABI: punktfunk_connect_ex2 + punktfunk_connection_gamepad (connect_ex delegates; ABI_VERSION stays 2 — the trailing byte IS the compat mechanism). punktfunk-client-rs gets --gamepad. - Swift client: GamepadManager (app-lifetime discovery + selection — Settings lists every controller with capabilities/battery/"In use"; exactly ONE pad forwards as pad 0, auto = most recently connected, or pinned), GamepadCapture (snapshot-diff button/axis events, DualSense touchpad + ~250 Hz motion on the rich-input plane, held state released on switch/deactivate/stop), GamepadFeedback (rumble → CoreHaptics per-handle engines; lightbar → GCDeviceLight; player LEDs → playerIndex; adaptive-trigger blocks → the table-driven DualSenseTriggerEffect parser → GCDualSenseAdaptiveTrigger, exact for the 10-zone positional modes). The pad type auto-resolves from the physical controller at connect time, user-overridable in Settings. - Host DualSense fixes surfaced by adversarial review against hid-playstation / SDL / Nielk1 ground truth: input-report sensor/touch offsets were off by one (the kernel read garbage motion + phantom touches), the L2/R2 trigger blocks were swapped (the report is right-trigger-first), feedback now gates on the report's valid-flags (a plain rumble write no longer blanks lightbar/ triggers), and the touchpad rescale clamps to the advertised ABS_MT extents. - Tests: Hello/Welcome trailing-byte back-compat, pick_gamepad precedence, byte-exact input-report layout, valid-flag gating, per-mode trigger-parser table (incl. packed 3-bit zones), wire conversions, and a scripted loopback feedback burst (PUNKTFUNK_TEST_FEEDBACK=1) asserted through the xcframework on the rumble + HID-output planes. Validated: cargo test/clippy/fmt green on macOS + Linux (61 host tests), swift build/test green, test-loopback.sh green, tvOS/iOS targets compile. DualSense motion sign/scale is derived from the calibration blob, not yet live-verified (constants isolated in GamepadWire). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
punktfunk
A ground-up low-latency desktop streaming stack, built Linux-first, with a shared Rust protocol core and native clients per platform.
punktfunk is a placeholder codename. The bet: ship a Linux virtual-display streaming
host that speaks the existing Moonlight protocol (every Moonlight/Artemis client works
day one), then break the ~1 Gbps FEC wall with a GF(2¹⁶) Leopard-RS transport as a
negotiated extension. See docs/implementation-plan.md.
Status
| Milestone | State |
|---|---|
M1 — punktfunk-core + C ABI |
✅ done & hardened (FEC, packetization, AES-GCM, session, adversarial-review fixes, punktfunk_core.h) |
| M2 — GameStream host → stock Moonlight | ✅ live end-to-end: pairing, RTSP, audio, per-client virtual output at native res, GPU zero-copy NVENC, gamepads |
M3 — punktfunk/1 native protocol |
✅ validated live: QUIC control + GF(2¹⁶) FEC/AES data plane, SPAKE2 PIN pairing, mid-stream mode renegotiation |
| M4 — client decode + present (Apple) | 🟡 macOS first light: AnnexB→VideoToolbox HEVC on glass + input/pairing over punktfunk/1 (clients/apple); iOS + presenter next |
| Web console + management API | ✅ TanStack web console (web/) over the OpenAPI mgmt API: host status, paired devices, on-demand native pairing (arm → show PIN) |
The GameStream host works with a stock Moonlight client — validated live on NVIDIA
(RTX 5070 Ti & RTX 4090, driver 595): trust-on-first-use pairing that persists, an app
catalog, RTSP/ENet/audio, and video at the client's exact resolution and refresh via a
per-session virtual output (KWin, gamescope, Mutter, Sway backends), encoded with GPU
zero-copy (dmabuf → CUDA/Vulkan → NVENC) at up to 5120×1440@240. The native
punktfunk/1 protocol adds a QUIC control plane and a GF(2¹⁶) Leopard-FEC + AES-GCM data
plane (p50 ~0.8 ms capture→reassembled at 720p120), with a SPAKE2 PIN pairing ceremony. Both
run from one process (serve --native), managed through a REST API + web console. Builds
against FFmpeg 7 or 8; deployed live on Bazzite. Full status: CLAUDE.md;
roadmap: docs/roadmap.md.

Build & test
cargo build --workspace # green on Linux and macOS
cargo test --workspace # unit + loopback + proptest + C ABI harness
cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets
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
The C header regenerates from crates/punktfunk-core/src/abi.rs on every build (cbindgen via
build.rs) into include/punktfunk_core.h.
Design invariants
- One core, linked everywhere. Protocol/FEC/crypto/pacing live in
punktfunk-coreexactly once, exposed over a stable, versioned C ABI (punktfunk_abi_version(),PunktfunkConfigcarries its ownstruct_size). - No async on the hot path. The per-frame pipeline uses native threads only;
tokio/quinnare gated behind the off-by-defaultquicfeature (control plane only). - FEC is the wall-breaker. GF(2⁸) (≤255 shards/block) for Moonlight compat; GF(2¹⁶) (≤65535 shards/block, SIMD, O(n log n)) to push past ~1 Gbps.
