enricobuehler 433a23da7a test(presenter): PUNKTFUNK_HW_FAULT=import demotion hook (phase 2 acceptance)
Faults every dmabuf import so the failure-streak → force_software →
software-decode recovery is exercisable on healthy hardware — the plan's
§8 phase-2 acceptance requires demoting via a deliberately faulted
import rather than waiting for a broken driver.

punktfunk-session

The Vulkan session binary: one stream per invocation in an SDL3 window — no UI toolkit, no widgets, terminal stats. The power-user / gamescope stream client, and the stage-2 presenter of the Linux client re-architecture (punktfunk-planning: linux-client-rearchitecture.md).

punktfunk-session --connect host[:port] [--fp HEX] [--launch id] [--fullscreen] [--stats]

Reads the same identity / known-hosts / settings stores as the desktop client (punktfunk-client) — pair there (or via its headless --pair) first; this binary never connects to a host it has no pinned fingerprint for (--fp HEX overrides the store).

Stdout is the machine interface: {"ready":true} after the first presented frame, stats: … once per second (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S toggles, --stats forces on), one {"error"|"ended": …} JSON line on the way out. Logs go to stderr. Exit codes: 0 clean end, 2 connect failed, 3 trust rejected / pairing required, 4 presenter init failed.

In-stream keys match the desktop client: click captures input (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Q releases), Ctrl+Alt+Shift+D disconnects, F11 toggles fullscreen; the controller escape chord (L1+R1+Start+Select, hold to disconnect) works the same.

Decode follows the Settings preference: VAAPI frames import zero-copy into Vulkan (per-plane dmabuf + the stream's CICP-driven CSC shader); boxes whose driver can't import (NVIDIA proprietary by design) fall back to software decode automatically. Debug/bisect knobs: PUNKTFUNK_DECODER=software|vaapi, PUNKTFUNK_PRESENT_MODE= mailbox|immediate (default FIFO), PUNKTFUNK_VK_DEVICE=<index> (multi-GPU), and PUNKTFUNK_HW_FAULT=import (fault every dmabuf import — proves the three-strike demotion to software on healthy hardware). HDR/P010 and the Skia console UI (--browse) are later phases of the plan.
