Networking-audit deferred plan §6: - 6.1 client reassembler ceiling derived from the negotiated rate: Welcome::session_config (client role) now sets max_frame_bytes to clamp(4 × bitrate_kbps×125 / refresh_hz, 8 MiB, 64 MiB) instead of the blanket 64 MiB p1_defaults bound — the hostile-header memory ceiling was ~10× larger than any real access unit. Local only (the host never reassembles video; the wire is self-describing); a bitrate-0 (older) host keeps the old bound. Unit-tested floor/derived/host/old-host cases. - 6.2 ProbeState.active is cleared when the host's ProbeResult lands, so the pump stops mirroring receive counters once the burst is over. - 6.3 Android: an AU larger than the codec input buffer is DROPPED with a recovery-keyframe request and a counter, on both the sync (feed) and async (feed_ready) paths — a truncated AU is corrupt input the decoder chews on silently, poisoning the reference chain until the next IDR. The async path recycles the never-queued input slot; the sync path returns the dequeued slot with zero valid bytes. - 6.4 bounded uplink channels: mic_tx at 64 (~320 ms of 5 ms frames; overflow sheds the fresh frame with a debug log — a tokio mpsc can't shed from the head, and past 320 ms of backlog the mic is broken either way; the bound is about memory) and ctrl_tx at 32 (sparse requests; a full queue means a wedged control task, reported as Closed). input_tx stays unbounded per the plan: keyboard/mouse events must never silently drop, and gamepad state is snapshot-healed. - 6.5 (wire version byte says P1 while streaming Gf16): record-only, resolves with the P2 packet revision. include/punktfunk_core.h: cbindgen re-emitted in the new module order after the quic/ split (item 3) — no semantic change beyond the reorder. cargo ndk check (arm64-v8a), workspace clippy, core+host tests green.

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.
