enricobuehler 5c05246098 feat: M10 — FFmpeg is gone from the client
cargo tree -p punktfunk-client-session finds no ffmpeg. The host still does,
which is the whole point: pf-encode keeps libavcodec unconditionally and no
host workflow, packaging script or licence file was touched.

Deleted: crates/pf-ffvk, video_vulkan.rs, video_vaapi.rs, video_libav.rs, the
libavcodec half of video_d3d11.rs, the av_log machinery, ffmpeg::codec::Id as
the decoder's vocabulary (the quic CODEC_* wire constants now serve, which is
why the evidence table was keyed on them), DecodedImage::VkFrame and ::Dmabuf,
the presenter's AVVkFrame lane, and the ffmpeg-fallback feature with
everything behind it. DrmFrameGuard collapses from an enum to a newtype, which
removes an unsafe impl Send. Roughly 25,000 lines.

Then the CI, packaging, licensing and docs work the plan's §6 lists: the
Windows workflows lose FFMPEG_DIR, PF_FFVK_VULKAN_INCLUDE and their PATH
prepend; the MSIX loses its DLL wildcard; the client .deb stops emitting libav
sonames on its own because depends come from dpkg-shlibdeps; arch, flatpak and
nix drop the dependency; and the README's "FFmpeg 7 or 8" contract narrows to
the host.

Three defects reached users' machines in the first cut, and none was in the
deletion itself.

All three desktop Settings UIs offer vulkan, vaapi and d3d11va as stored
decoder values, so those strings sit in shipped settings files today. Refusing
them by name — which is the correct rule for a stale pin — would have bricked
every upgraded client whose owner ever touched that dropdown. They now migrate
onto the native rung for the same hardware family, at decoder construction AND
at each dialog's lookup, because a legacy value that matches no preset
displays as "Automatic" and silently rewrites the user's preference on the
next save.

M9's evidence filter was deleted on the argument that with no libavcodec twin
below, barring an unproven rung removes hardware decode rather than moving
down one rung. That is true on Windows and false on Linux for Intel and every
unknown vendor id, where prefer_vulkan_first is false and the order is
native-vaapi → native-vk: a rung that has decoded nothing anywhere sitting
above one that is 250/250 on three drivers. Every Intel Linux desktop would
have moved from libavcodec VAAPI, shipping for years, onto pf-vaadec by
default — and a rung that constructs and then produces wrong pixels leaves
only by the error-streak demotion, which this codebase already documents as
not tripping on the B580's strobing. The filter is restored as a narrow, pure,
testable rule: an unproven rung yields to a proven one, and to nothing else.
Windows deliberately passes no rung below, because that vendor family is the
one with a measured wrong-pixel report against Vulkan decode, and trading no
evidence for evidence of corruption is the wrong direction.

And the notices still said FFmpeg was bundled. The root file is what both
desktop clients include_str! and what the MSIX ships, three lines under the
new card saying no FFmpeg is bundled; Apple's Acknowledgements said it too, on
iOS, tvOS and macOS. The generator now emits four per-client files scoped by
transitive closure — 0 FFmpeg mentions in each, verified — while the root file
keeps it for the host. That also ends the standing false attribution of
ffmpeg-next, GTK4, windows-rs and the NVENC SDK to an iPhone.

Windows has no reachable box, so it was compiled instead: a cross clippy at
-D warnings on x86_64 and aarch64-pc-windows-msvc with the C toolchain stubbed
so build scripts run without linking. That gate immediately caught an
include_str! path one directory too deep, which nothing else could have.

Gates: container clippy -D warnings, 160 tests, workspace check, both Windows
targets clean, client ffmpeg count 0 and host 2. The four decode crates are
untouched, so the hardware rungs' 250/250 stands.

⚠ Owed and unrun: no GPU has executed any of this milestone. M8's on-glass
software check, M7's D3D11 and VAAPI AV1 hardware legs, and M9's field bake
all still want hardware, and the bake window and criteria remain the user's.

punktfunk-host — RPM (Bazzite / Fedora Atomic) via the Gitea registry

punktfunk-host is published as an RPM to Gitea's RPM package registry in the public unom org (stable groups bazzite/fedora-44, canary groups bazzite-canary/fedora-44-canary), so Bazzite / Fedora Atomic hosts layer and update it with rpm-ostree. CI (.gitea/workflows/rpm.yml) builds and publishes on every push to main (a rolling <next-minor>-0.ciN.g<sha> build — the base is derived from the latest stable tag by scripts/ci/pf-version.sh — to the *-canary groups) and on vX.Y.Z tags (a clean X.Y.Z-1 to the base groups, plus attached to the unified Gitea Release) — separate repos, so a stable box never jumps to a canary build (see Release Channels). The baseurl below subscribes to the bazzite stable group; use bazzite-canary for the latest main builds. The RPM is built in the Fedora 43 image (ci/fedora-rpm.Dockerfile) so its auto-generated library Requires (libavcodec.so.NN, …) match Bazzite's sonames; the NVIDIA driver lib (libcuda.so.1) is excluded — NVENC/EGL come from whatever NVIDIA stack the host runs (a weak Recommends).

This is the same package as the COPR / bootc paths — same spec (punktfunk.spec) — just self-hosted in Gitea instead of COPR, mirroring the Debian/apt setup.

Install on a Bazzite host (one-time)

# Add the repo. Packages are GPG-signed (gpgcheck=1, the packages@unom.io key) AND the repo
# metadata is Gitea-signed (repo_gpgcheck=1); gpgkey lists both so dnf/rpm-ostree imports each.
sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/punktfunk.repo >/dev/null <<'REPO'
[gitea-unom-bazzite]

REPO

# Layer the host + the web console (pairing/status), then reboot into the new deployment.
# (punktfunk Recommends punktfunk-web; list it explicitly so it's pulled regardless of weak-dep
# settings. The registry carries punktfunk-web because CI builds the spec --with web; COPR can't.)
rpm-ostree install punktfunk punktfunk-web
systemctl reboot

If rpm-ostree can't complete the metadata GPG check non-interactively, set repo_gpgcheck=0 (TLS-only trust to the self-hosted registry).

Per-package signing (gpgcheck=1, active)

CI GPG-signs every RPM: packaging/rpm/sign-rpms.sh (run from rpm.yml between build and publish) signs with the dedicated EdDSA key packages@unom.io (AF245C506F4E4763) and self-verifies with rpmkeys --checksig before publishing, so an unsigned/bad build never reaches the registry. The public key is served from the registry (the gpgkey= URL above) and committed at packaging/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY-punktfunk. (This is a GPG/OpenPGP key — a step-ca/X.509 cert can't sign RPMs; step-ca is only for registry/console TLS.)

RPM_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY is an org-level secret on unom, not a repo secret — it will not show up under this repository's Actions secrets. Verify it end to end instead of by its absence there: curl -O <repo-url>/package/punktfunk-web/<ver>/x86_64/…rpm && rpm -qp --qf '%{RSAHEADER:pgpsig}\n' (or rpmkeys --checksig, which reports NOKEY until you import the public key — NOKEY still means signed, just by a key that box doesn't have yet).

On a v* tag build, a missing key fails the build: sign-rpms.sh will not publish unsigned RPMs into a repo whose own instructions say gpgcheck=1, because every user's dnf upgrade would then break on them. Non-release builds still fall through unsigned so forks and local builds work.

How it was set up (and how to rotate the key):

# 1. Generate a DEDICATED, passphrase-less signing key (separate from the Gitea metadata key).
gpg --batch --gen-key <<EOF
%no-protection
Key-Type: eddsa
Key-Curve: ed25519
Name-Real: punktfunk packages
Name-Email: packages@unom.io
Expire-Date: 0
%commit
EOF
gpg --armor --export-secret-keys packages@unom.io   # -> the RPM_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY CI secret
gpg --armor --export             packages@unom.io > packaging/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY-punktfunk  # public half

# 2. Add the armored PRIVATE key as the RPM_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY Gitea Actions secret, at the ORG level
#    (git.unom.io/org/unom/settings/actions/secrets) so every repo's workflows inherit it. Commit
#    the public half and publish it to the registry so the gpgkey= URL resolves:
curl --user "<user>:<write:package-PAT>" --upload-file packaging/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY-punktfunk \
  https://git.unom.io/api/packages/unom/generic/punktfunk-keys/1/RPM-GPG-KEY-punktfunk

Rotating the key means a new generic-registry version (bump punktfunk-keys/1/2 and the gpgkey= URL), since the registry rejects re-uploading an existing file.

This key also signs the Bazzite sysext feed, and a third copy of its public half is baked into packaging/bazzite/punktfunk-sysext.sh (FEED_KEY=) — that script is bootstrapped by curl on machines that have nothing installed yet, so it can't fetch the key from the thing it's authenticating. A rotation must update all three: the CI secret, this directory's RPM-GPG-KEY-punktfunk (+ its registry upload), and FEED_KEY. publish-sysext-feed.sh compares its signing key's fingerprint against FEED_KEY and refuses to sign on a mismatch, so forgetting the third one fails the publish instead of stranding every Bazzite box in front of a feed it can't verify.

After reboot, as the desktop user:

ujust add-user-to-input-group           # virtual gamepads need /dev/uinput (re-login).
                                        # Bazzite is atomic — use ujust, NOT `usermod -aG input`.
mkdir -p ~/.config/punktfunk
cp /usr/share/punktfunk/host.env.bazzite ~/.config/punktfunk/host.env   # gamescope defaults
systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-host
# Web console — enable it and read the auto-generated login password (then open https://<host-ip>:47992):
systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-web
journalctl --user -u punktfunk-web-init | sed -n 's/.*password generated: //p'

(See ../bazzite/README.md for the full appliance walkthrough — udev/group, host.env, the Steam session unit, firewall, verify.)

Updates

rpm-ostree upgrade            # pulls the newest punktfunk with the system update
systemctl reboot             # rpm-ostree changes apply on reboot

Layered packages are re-resolved against their repos on every rpm-ostree upgrade, so the box tracks new builds automatically (Bazzite's auto-update timer does this for you). To pin or stop tracking: rpm-ostree override / rpm-ostree uninstall punktfunk.

Build an RPM locally

PF_VERSION=0.0.1 bash packaging/rpm/build-rpm.sh                # host + client
PF_VERSION=0.0.1 PF_WITH_WEB=1 bash packaging/rpm/build-rpm.sh  # + punktfunk-web (needs bun on PATH)
# -> dist/punktfunk-0.0.1-1.fcNN.x86_64.rpm  (+ punktfunk-web-0.0.1-1.fcNN.x86_64.rpm with PF_WITH_WEB=1;
#    the web subpackage vendors a bun binary, so it's arch-specific, not noarch)

Run it inside the Fedora 43 builder image so the deps resolve and match Bazzite:

docker build -f ci/fedora-rpm.Dockerfile -t punktfunk-fedora-rpm ci
docker run --rm -v "$PWD:/src" -w /src punktfunk-fedora-rpm \
  bash -lc 'git config --global --add safe.directory /src && PF_VERSION=0.0.1 bash packaging/rpm/build-rpm.sh'

A plain rpmbuild/COPR build with no pf_version/pf_release defines produces 0.3.0-1 (the spec defaults).

aarch64 — the client RPM

The client builds for aarch64; the host does not (its encode stack is NVENC/QSV/AMF, all x86). PF_WITHOUT_HOST=1 drops the host binary, the tray, the headless-session data, the firewalld services and the main package's %files, leaving exactly one RPM: punktfunk-client. Omitting the main %files is what keeps rpm from emitting an empty punktfunk next to it.

This is not a cross-compile — %build runs cargo for the host architecture, so run it on an arm64 machine (or an emulated arm64 container, which is very slow):

docker build --platform linux/arm64 -f ci/fedora-rpm.Dockerfile -t punktfunk-fedora-rpm-arm64 ci
docker run --rm --platform linux/arm64 -v "$PWD:/src" -w /src punktfunk-fedora-rpm-arm64 \
  bash -lc 'git config --global --add safe.directory /src && \
            PF_VERSION=0.0.1 PF_WITHOUT_HOST=1 bash packaging/rpm/build-rpm.sh'
# -> dist/punktfunk-client-0.0.1-1.fcNN.aarch64.rpm

PF_WITHOUT_HOST=1 works on x86_64 too, if you only want the client RPM. The flag is orthogonal to the architecture; it is just that aarch64 has no other option.
