Centralize the client-side loss-range detector in punktfunk-core so every embedder shares one implementation instead of re-deriving the wrapping frame-index arithmetic: - NativeClient::note_frame_index(frame_index) folds each received AU (in receive order) through RfiRecovery::observe, firing a throttled RFI request for the exact lost span [first_missing, frame_index-1] on a forward gap. A host that can RFI (AMD LTR / NVENC) re-references a known-good frame instead of paying a 20-40x IDR spike; the frames_dropped-driven keyframe path stays the backstop for when the recovery frame itself is lost. - Export request_rfi + note_frame_index over the C ABI (Apple client). - Call it from the Android (hw+sw pumps), Apple (StreamPump + Stage2Pipeline via PunktfunkConnection.noteFrameIndex), and Windows in-process pumps. Linux/Deck inherit it through pf-client-core's session pump. - Split the decision into a pure RfiRecovery::observe(frame_index, now) and add 8 unit tests: arming, contiguous runs, exact lost-range, single-frame drop, the 100ms throttle (burst-suppress then re-open), reorder stragglers, and u32 wraparound (contiguous + gap-range).

punktfunk-core
The shared protocol core — the one place where punktfunk's transport, forward error correction, and crypto live. It's linked into the host and every native client, so there's exactly one implementation of the wire format everywhere.
Written in Rust with no async on the per-frame path (native threads only). It exposes both a normal Rust API and a stable, versioned C ABI, so the Swift and Kotlin clients — and any C embedder — link the same code as the Rust ones.
What's in here
- Transport & session (
session.rs,transport/,packet.rs) — thepunktfunk/1data plane over raw UDP: packetization, reassembly (with attacker-bounded limits), pacing, and socket tuning. - FEC (
fec/) — the wall-breaker. Two codes:- GF(2⁸) classic Reed–Solomon with the Cauchy generator matrix — byte-identical to the
nanorslibrary Moonlight uses, so our parity is decodable by a stock Moonlight client. - GF(2¹⁶) Leopard-RS (SIMD, O(n log n)) — up to 65535 shards/block, which removes the ~1 Gbps
FEC ceiling.
punktfunk/1negotiates this one.
- GF(2⁸) classic Reed–Solomon with the Cauchy generator matrix — byte-identical to the
- Crypto (
crypto.rs) — AES-128-GCM session encryption with per-direction nonce salts and sequence-as-AAD; SPAKE2 PIN pairing lives behind thequicfeature. - QUIC control plane (
quic.rs,client.rs, featurequic) — the Hello/Welcome/Start handshake, cert pinning/TOFU, reverse audio, and the embeddableNativeClientconnector. This is the only placetokio/quinnare allowed; the feature is off by default so the core stays runtime-free. - C ABI (
abi.rs) — the versioned surface (punktfunk_abi_version(),PunktfunkConfigcarrying its ownstruct_size) that generatesinclude/punktfunk_core.hvia cbindgen at build time.
Build outputs
The crate builds three ways at once (crate-type = ["lib", "cdylib", "staticlib"]):
| Output | Used by |
|---|---|
lib (rlib) |
the host, probe, and tools link it as a normal Rust crate |
cdylib (.so/.dylib) |
the Swift / Kotlin clients via the C ABI |
staticlib (.a) |
the C test harness and static embedding |
Test
cargo test -p punktfunk-core # unit + proptest + loopback
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
Design invariants (do not regress)
- One core, linked everywhere — protocol/FEC/crypto live only here, behind the stable C ABI.
- No async on the hot path — the per-frame pipeline is native threads only;
quic(tokio/quinn) is control-plane only, feature-gated, off by default. - Security hardening stays intact — the reassembler bounds attacker-controlled fields before
allocating; AES-GCM keeps per-direction nonce salts + seq-as-AAD; the ABI checks
struct_size. Regression tests exist — keep them green.
