What changed

  • adds a Foundation controller-arrival capability requesting native DualSense emulation. It claims the top bit (0x8000) of the arrival capabilities field — upstream moonlight-common-c owns the low bits (currently 0x00FF), Foundation extensions stay out of that range
  • a client preference overrides the global gamepad default (including explicit DS4/Xbox 360, logged with a warning); an explicit per-app controller selection stays authoritative
  • falls back to DS4 with a warning when the optional sidecar is unavailable. The preference is best-effort: clients must not assume success or switch to DualSense-exclusive UI on it
  • reallocates an existing controller only when arrival fields that can change the emulated type change (controller type, touchpad/accel/gyro caps, the preference bit); other metadata updates are recorded in place without recreating the virtual device

Why

Windows automatic mode maps generic PlayStation metadata to DS4, and duplicate arrival packets were ignored after a legacy Xbox or DS4 device had already been allocated. This prevented a client from enabling DS5 touchpad emulation during an active stream.

Impact

Foundation clients can request DS5 dynamically. Host precedence: per-app selection > client preference > global config. Existing clients and unknown capability bits retain the previous behavior.

Validation

  • git diff --check
  • verified controller-touch routing through the generic input layer and DualSense sidecar's two-contact 1920x1080 touchpad mapping
  • full CMake build was unavailable because the existing build directory is incomplete and has no generated Makefile

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • 新功能

    • 新增优先使用原生 DualSense 控制器的支持,改善控制器类型识别与模拟体验。
    • 原生 DualSense 不可用时自动回退至 DualShock 4;手动指定 DualSense 时会明确提示不可用。
    • 支持持续传输加速度计和陀螺仪数据。
  • 错误修复

    • 控制器重复连接、重新分配或移除后,会正确清理并重置运行时状态,减少重新连接时的异常。

Walkthrough

本次更新新增 DualSense 偏好能力及设备类型选择能力集合。Windows 分配器支持 DualSense 选择和 DualShock 4 回退。控制器到达事件会比较元数据,并在变化时重置状态后重新分配。

Changes

游戏手柄分配流程

Layer / File(s) Summary
DualSense 能力与分配逻辑
src/platform/common.h, src/platform/windows/input.cpp, src/process.h
新增 GAMEPAD_CAP_PREFER_DS5GAMEPAD_TYPE_SELECTION_CAPS。无显式 per-app 选择时,客户端偏好可覆盖全局模式并优先选择 DualSense。sidecar 不可用或分配失败时回退到 DualShock 4。gamepad_mode 注释新增 4=DualSense
控制器到达后的重新分配
src/input.cpp
gamepad_t 保存控制器到达元数据。元数据未变化时刷新元数据并保留现有设备。元数据变化时重置运行时状态、释放旧手柄并继续分配。移除多控制器时也会先重置运行时状态。

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 15fd3

The PR adds dynamic DualSense preference handling, sidecar fallback, and controller reallocation. The remaining concern is limited to capability-mask naming and version-specific documentation, with no supplied evidence of a current behavioral defect; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks.

cancel any pending back_timeout_id, reset it to zero, and clear the
gamepad_state and back_button_state fields for the affected gamepad. Keep the
existing metadata reallocation flow unchanged.

- Around line 1921-1927: Update the DualSense sidecar-unavailable branch in the
input-selection logic to force a DualShock 4 fallback when client_prefers_ds5 is
true. Set an explicit DS4 fallback state and make the subsequent selection path
choose DualShock4Wired directly, preventing metadata or automatic-selection
branches from choosing Xbox 360; preserve the existing error return when DS5 is
required and the client does not prefer it.

- GAMEPAD_CAP_PREFER_DS5 0x0100 -> 0x8000,避开上游 moonlight-common-c
  继续分配低位能力位的冲突;偏好为尽力而为,sidecar 不可用仍回退 DS4
- arrival 更新仅在类型相关字段(控制器类型、触摸板/加速度/陀螺仪
  能力、偏好位)变化时才重建虚拟设备,其余元数据变化只刷新记录,
  消除串流中因能力位抖动导致的设备销毁重建
- 客户端偏好覆盖非 auto 的主机全局模式时补 warning 日志

请使用命名能力位构造选择掩码,并按本仓库锁定的 moonlight-common-c 版本说明能力位范围。当前 0x0038 依赖上游位布局,注释中的“低位目前为 0x00FF”也可能与实际依赖版本不一致;建议使用 LI_CCAP_TOUCHPAD | LI_CCAP_ACCEL | LI_CCAP_GYRO,并明确 0x8000 在该版本的已分配范围之外,避免上游位布局或依赖版本变化后掩码和说明静默失效。
