The 0xD1 plane was Windows-host-only: host_cap() answered false and spawn()
was a stub everywhere else, so an Android tier-A client against a Linux host
negotiated the cap off and stayed on wire rumble. The whole downstream
machinery (framer, silence gate, lanes, 0xD1 send) was already capture-
agnostic — only the capturer was WASAPI.
- audio/linux/pad_sink.rs: one Audio/Sink stream node per DualSense-family
pad, minted with the identity the matchers read (ALSA-style node.name with
the pad's pairing MAC, description "Wireless Controller", bus/vendor/
product/form-factor proplist, per-pad serial), 4-ch F32 48 kHz FL FR RL RR,
no default-sink claim, priority.session 50. The process() callback IS the
capture. PUNKTFUNK_PAD_SINK_NAME/_DESC override the strings for field
debugging ({pad}/{mac} expand).
- native/pad_audio.rs: the shared logic and lanes compile on Linux;
pad_audio_thread is generic over the capturer (open-with-backoff kept);
host_cap() Linux arm = client asked + PUNKTFUNK_PAD_AUDIO + a reachable
PipeWire socket; spawn() Linux arm mints the sink lazily in the streamer
thread. spawn() gains an edge flag (Edge identity; ignored on Windows).
- devtest pad-sink-test: mint one sink and capture from it, no client — the
WP3 on-glass gate. Verified on a Bazzite 44 host: identity served through
pipewire-pulse, rear-pair (voice-coil) tone captured bit-exact over both
the native and pulse legs.
- docs: PUNKTFUNK_PAD_AUDIO{,_SLOTS} are no longer (Windows); the roadmap
non-goal narrows to Bluetooth client pads.
Gates (fedora:44 container, natively on the .41 box): cargo build --release
--locked (nvenc+vulkan-encode), clippy --all-targets -D warnings, cargo test
pad_audio+pad_sink 11/11, cargo fmt.
