enricobuehler 5a4305c072 merge: bring current main into the gyro correctness branch
main moved ~60 commits while this branch was in progress, and one of them matters
here: PR #88 (the phone-gyro mirror) landed, touching the same motion path.

One conflicted file, `GamepadCapture.swift`, in three places — all of them the two
changes meeting rather than disagreeing:

- **Slot fields.** #88 added `motionSent` + `lastAccel` for its flush-parks-motion fix;
  this branch removed `lastMotionNs` with the 4 ms drop-throttle. Kept both decisions:
  the parking state stays, the throttle field goes.
- **forwardMotion's head.** #88 added the mirror stand-down (`pad 0` yields while the
  phone speaks for it); this branch deleted the throttle guard. Kept the stand-down,
  dropped the guard.
- **The send.** This branch converts into the DualSense report frame; #88 records what
  went out so `flush` can replay it beside a zero gyro. Both, with the recording placed
  AFTER the conversion — `flush` replays `lastAccel`, so it has to be the vector that
  actually went on the wire, or a still pad's gravity gets parked in the wrong axis.

The two features compose exactly, which is worth stating because it is not luck: this
branch gates motion capture on `hasRotationRate`, and #88 engages the phone mirror when
`hasRotationRate != true`. They are complements — a pad either drives its own gyro or the
phone mirrors for it, never both and never neither.

Everything else auto-merged. Note `DeviceGyroRemapTests` is `#if os(iOS)`, so the macOS
suite reports the same 215 as before the merge rather than gaining #88's six — checked,
not assumed.

Gates re-run against the merged tree rather than trusting either side's: Linux fmt +
build + `clippy --locked --all-targets -D warnings` + punktfunk-core and pf-inject
suites; Apple 215 tests and the iOS-triple typecheck; Android kit + app compile and
tests. All green.

Packaging punktfunk for Fedora / Bazzite

The punktfunk host links system FFmpeg (NVENC on NVIDIA, VAAPI on AMD/Intel, with a GPU-less software-H.264 fallback), PipeWire and Opus. This page covers packaging it for the Fedora Atomic / Bazzite world (rpm-ostree + bootc), where most of those deps are already present; the NVIDIA-specific notes below apply to the NVENC path.

👉 Ubuntu/Debian hosts install via apt from Gitea's package registry — see debian/README.md (apt update && apt upgrade for new builds).

👉 End-to-end Bazzite setup walkthrough (install → udev/group → host.env → service → firewall → verify → troubleshooting): bazzite/README.md. This file is the higher-level packaging rationale.

packaging/
  rpm/punktfunk.spec      # the RPM (builds punktfunk-host from source with cargo)
  bazzite/host.env        # gamescope-default config for a Bazzite appliance
  bazzite/README.md       # step-by-step Bazzite setup guide
  bazzite/*sysext*.sh     # the no-layering path: build/install/publish the systemd-sysext
  bootc/Containerfile     # bake punktfunk into a Bazzite-based atomic image
  copr/                   # COPR build-from-SCM settings

The other packaging targets have their own READMEs: debian/ (apt), arch/ (pacman binary repo + PKGBUILD + SteamOS sysext), flatpak/ (the client), windows/ (host installer + drivers), plus kde/ and linux/ helpers. NixOS / Nix users get a flake (flake.nix at the repo root) with reproducible host + client packages and a services.punktfunk NixOS module — see nix/README.md.

What's needed beyond base Fedora

Dependency Where it comes from
ffmpeg-libs with NVENC RPM Fusion nonfree (ffmpeg, not ffmpeg-free)
NVIDIA driver (libnvidia-encode, libEGL_nvidia) Bazzite -nvidia images ship it; plain Fedora: akmod-nvidia + xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda
gamescope, PipeWire, wireplumber Bazzite ships these; plain Fedora: dnf install gamescope pipewire wireplumber
opus, libei Fedora base / updates

On Bazzite the only genuinely new runtime bits are ffmpeg-libs (RPM Fusion) + opus + libei — the rest of the stack is already there. The default backend is gamescope (packaging/bazzite/host.env), which the host spawns headless per session — no desktop login.

On Bazzite / Fedora Atomic the recommended install is the systemd-sysext image — rpm-ostree layering is a last resort per the Bazzite docs (it slows every OS update and can block upgrades), while a sysext overlays /usr at runtime, survives OS updates, and updates in one command with no reboot. CI wraps the same RPMs below into the image, so content and channels are identical.

curl -fsSLO https://git.unom.io/unom/punktfunk/raw/branch/main/packaging/bazzite/punktfunk-sysext.sh
sudo bash punktfunk-sysext.sh install     # then: sudo punktfunk-sysext update | status | remove

Full walkthrough (incl. the F43→F44 rebase behavior and migration off layering): bazzite/README.md.

Option B — Gitea RPM registry (per-host, rpm-ostree layering)

The host's RPM is published to unom's self-hosted Gitea RPM registry (CI builds it on every push), mirroring the Debian/apt setup. Add one repo file, install, and track updates with rpm-ostree upgrade — no COPR account needed. Full guide: rpm/README.md.

# GPG-signed pkgs + Gitea-signed metadata → gpgcheck=1, repo_gpgcheck=1 (see rpm/README.md)
sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/punktfunk.repo >/dev/null <<'REPO'

REPO
rpm-ostree install punktfunk && systemctl reboot
# updates:  rpm-ostree upgrade && systemctl reboot

Option C — COPR (per-host, rpm-ostree install)

  1. Create a COPR project, enable build-from-SCM pointing at this repo, spec path packaging/rpm/punktfunk.spec (see copr/README.md). Under External Repositories add RPM Fusion nonfree so ffmpeg-devel resolves at build time.
  2. On the Bazzite host:
    # RPM Fusion (for the NVENC ffmpeg) — usually already enabled on Bazzite
    rpm-ostree install \
      https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm \
      https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
    # enable the COPR + install punktfunk
    sudo wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/_copr_punktfunk.repo \
      https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/enricobuehler/punktfunk/repo/fedora-$(rpm -E %fedora)/
    rpm-ostree install punktfunk
    systemctl reboot
    

Option D — bootc (image-based, atomic)

Layer punktfunk into a Bazzite image once, then rebase any number of hosts onto it — no per-host drift. See bootc/Containerfile:

podman build -t ghcr.io/<you>/bazzite-punktfunk -f packaging/bootc/Containerfile .
podman push  ghcr.io/<you>/bazzite-punktfunk
# on the target:
sudo bootc switch ghcr.io/<you>/bazzite-punktfunk && systemctl reboot

First-run setup (all options)

ujust add-user-to-input-group           # virtual gamepads need /dev/uinput (then re-login).
                                        # On Bazzite use ujust, NOT `usermod -aG input` (atomic OS — it won't stick).
mkdir -p ~/.config/punktfunk
cp /usr/share/punktfunk/host.env.bazzite ~/.config/punktfunk/host.env   # edit (gamescope app, etc.)
systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-host

# Management web console (pairing + status) — pulled in by default (the host RPM Recommends it;
# `--no-install-recommends` / headless-only boxes can skip it). Enable it and read the login password:
systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-web
journalctl --user -u punktfunk-web-init | sed -n 's/.*password generated: //p'   # then open https://<host-ip>:47992

Pair a stock Moonlight client (mDNS-discovered), or connect the native punktfunk/1 client — via the web console at https://<host-ip>:47992 or directly.

⚠️ COPR caveat: COPR's mock chroot has no bun, so a COPR build produces only punktfunk + punktfunk-clientnot punktfunk-web. For the console on a COPR/bootc host, install from the Gitea RPM registry (Option B — it carries punktfunk-web; the sysext image includes it too), which is also why bootc/Containerfile installs from there rather than COPR.

Why not Flatpak (for the HOST)?

The host needs unsandboxed access the zero-copy NVENC path, /dev/uinput, the PipeWire graph and the compositor's privileged protocols — a Flatpak sandbox fights all of these. An RPM (or the bootc layer) installs into the host system where those just work.

👉 The client is a different story — it IS shipped as a Flatpak (the only viable Steam Deck install path: SteamOS /usr is read-only and lacks libadwaita/libSDL3). See flatpak/README.md. The client sandbox only needs the GPU render node, Wayland, PipeWire audio, the network and hidraw — all expressible as finish-args.

Building the SRPM/RPM locally (Fedora only)

git archive --format=tar.gz --prefix=punktfunk-0.3.0/ -o ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/punktfunk-0.3.0.tar.gz HEAD
rpmbuild -ba packaging/rpm/punktfunk.spec     # needs the BuildRequires from the spec
# (0.3.0 = the spec's default %{pf_version}; the prefix and tarball name must match it)

(Not buildable on Debian/Ubuntu — use a Fedora toolbox/container or COPR.)
