Summary

Points the gamescope payload at 20261103.4. Master (#2327, payload 20261103.3) carries the shim with the cap-rate regression that @joshuatam's capture found: under a cap equal to the panel rate the shim declared FIFO and kept the vblank-grid acquire gate, and a game whose frame takes close to a period settles at 40 fps on a 60 Hz panel (1,2,1,2 vblank intervals). The fix is GameNative/gamenative-drm#47 (merged, master bf2757b): FIFO with the gate off in that cell, master's behaviour before the change, and a late start under a below-rate cap is released at the next grid instant.

What ships

• GamescopePayload.VERSION = 20261103.4. No other change; the daemon in jniLibs is unchanged (already the master daemon since gamescope: the present mode follows the container, the cap on the display's vsync grid (payload 20261103.1) #2327).
• Payload gamescope-gamenative-20261103.4.tzst: 14307540 B, sha256 5126c4ee8f042a69e287a3bde16e3be5a79de0cc052aaeadff5554b6a09fe7b9, on both CDN hosts and verified. It is 20261103.3 with only lib/libadrenotools_gamescope.so replaced: shim sha256 6355ee9ecdd1d8d8d6e6128d5e06c68536c085bebeaaaa28e70af517b2af9035, build string 2026110307122567925 (the same change as drm master 1cc98e1). gamescope 65d024fc… and Xwayland 4dded856… unchanged.

Verified

Retroid Pocket 6, Dave the Diver in game (diving), cap 60, in-game VSync on, panel switched live from 120 to 60 Hz, this payload: census declared=fifo source=cap-rate cap=60 gate=off; SurfaceFlinger 374 of 377 intervals a single vblank, median 16.71 ms; app fps 59.9 / 60.1 / 60.0 at GPU 51-53 %; daemon 596-598 publishes per 600 vsyncs, late 0-2. On 20261103.3 the same switch gave 40 fps in JT's capture (shim commits 400 per 10 s = daemon publishes 400/600, gate_late 400/400, skipped +200 per 10 s).

Test

Install, launch a gamescope container; expect Gamescope payload 20261103.4 ready and ICD loaded [shim 202611030712 2567925]. With the limiter at 60 on a 60 Hz panel the census reads source=cap-rate gate=off; on a 120 Hz panel declared=mailbox source=env gate=vsync.

Summary by cubic

Bumps the gamescope payload to 20261103.4, fixing a cap-rate regression where a cap equal to the panel rate made the shim declare FIFO while keeping the vblank-grid acquire gate on, settling games at 40 fps on a 60 Hz panel.

The fix turns the gate off in that cell (matching master's prior behavior) and releases a late start under a below-rate cap at the next grid instant.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the main change: bumping the gamescope payload to 20261103.4 and removing the gate under the cap-rate FIFO declaration. The changeset is a one-line VERSION constant bump, and the description and objectives tie that bump to the shim fix. The title is specific, but it is long (74 characters) and uses internal jargon such as 'cap-rate FIFO declaration' that a scanning teammate may not parse at once.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the template's main content. The Description section explains what changed and why, with the payload version, the fix source, and the verification steps. It has no Recording section content and no Type of Change selection, and the checklist is not ticked. The Recording section is missing an attached recording, and the Type of Change boxes are unchecked. The description is mostly complete, so the check passes, but the template sections should be filled in.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

No eligible functions found in the changed files. Skipping docstring coverage check. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 0 functions across 1 files.

Follow-up Comments

Consider asserting the shim in the payload tests.

14-14: Trivial · Maintainability & Code Quality · Low value

The download and install tests check availability, installability, and readiness. Neither test reads lib/libadrenotools_gamescope.so. A release whose archive still carries the previous shim would pass both tests. The production install path functions as written, and no current runtime defect is shown.

Consider asserting the shim in the payload tests.

The install test can check lib/libadrenotools_gamescope.so after extraction. Recording the expected SHA-256 next to VERSION would let the test detect a stale shim. This is optional coverage. The on-device census check in the PR remains a separate verification step.

Suggested test addition

Extend the payload install test to verify the extracted
lib/libadrenotools_gamescope.so matches its expected SHA-256, recording that
expected digest alongside VERSION in GamescopePayload. Keep the check scoped to
the payload tests; leave the separate on-device census verification unchanged.
