Fix hardware PWM sync, missing-source fan safety, RX recovery, discovery pagination, and worker shutdown. Add acknowledged AIO switching and bind/unbind results, preserve intentional unbinding across restarts, and reduce RGB retransmission traffic while retaining retries until acknowledgement

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Wireless binding and unbinding now show progress, success, or failure in the GUI.
    • Both TX and RX dongles are required for wireless control.
    • Supported SL V3 fans now offer hardware motherboard PWM synchronization.
    • MB Sync options reflect available hardware and PWM headers.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved reliability of wireless AIO theme changes and RGB uploads.
    • Binding errors are now surfaced instead of silently ignored.
    • Wireless fans run at full speed when PWM sources are unavailable.
    • Saved settings no longer automatically bind unbound groups at startup.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Wireless control now requires an active RX dongle, tracks binding operations and command acknowledgments, reports failures through IPC and the GUI, and supports hardware or software PWM synchronization with explicit fallback behavior.

Changes

Wireless controller runtime

Layer / File(s) Summary
Controller runtime and discovery
crates/lianli-devices/src/wireless/{controller,discovery,transport}.rs
Receiver state stores PWM and discovery pages. Discovery validates responses and uses stop-aware transport recovery. Controller shutdown joins both workers and requires TX, RX, polling, and stop-state checks.
Binding and convergence coordination
crates/lianli-devices/src/wireless/{bind,convergence,controller}.rs, crates/lianli-daemon/src/service/init.rs
Binding uses exclusive guards and fresh observations. Control commands pause for the target device. Rebind candidates require prior intent and a fresh masterless sighting.
Binding operation status flow
crates/lianli-shared/src/ipc.rs, crates/lianli-daemon/src/{ipc,service}, crates/lianli-gui/src/{stores,components,composables}, README.md
Bind and unbind requests return operation IDs. The daemon records completion status. The GUI polls status, preserves pending actions, and reports errors.
Wireless command and synchronization behavior
crates/lianli-devices/src/wireless/{aio,fan_speed,mb_sync,opcodes}.rs, crates/lianli-daemon/src/controllers/{aio,fan,rgb}, crates/lianli-gui/src/components/fans/FanGroupCard.vue
AIO theme commands use sequence acknowledgments and retries. Fan hardware sync uses dedicated packets. Software PWM falls back to full speed when unavailable. Picture and RGB upload acknowledgments use explicit timing and errors.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 627be

The PR improves wireless lifecycle handling, but cloned controllers can still start concurrent RX pollers, risking corrupted wireless state; this reliability issue should be fixed before merge.

In `@crates/lianli-devices/src/wireless/aio.rs`:
- Around line 183-184: Update the boundary assertion in the wireless theme
acknowledgement test to use a timestamp definitively older than ACK_FRESHNESS,
avoiding equality with the freshness threshold and elapsed-time resolution
dependence; keep the existing wireless_theme_acked behavior and test structure
unchanged.

In `@crates/lianli-devices/src/wireless/discovery.rs`:
- Line 384: Update poll_and_discover to accept the stop flag and pass Some(stop)
to with_transport_recovery instead of None; apply the same stop propagation from
both the polling and binding paths so controller shutdown prevents transport
reopening and retries.

In `@crates/lianli-devices/src/wireless/fan_speed.rs`:
- Line 55: The PWM acknowledgement flow around prepare_pwm and
set_hardware_pwm_sync must account for hardware-reported state: when the
expected PWM is the prepare_pwm(None) default, use is_pwm_line_on to acknowledge
the queued AckSignal::Pwm instead of requiring current_pwm to equal [6; 4].
Preserve existing acknowledgements for explicitly reported current PWM values.

Pass poll_stop into discovery transport recovery.

Line 384 passes None, so with_transport_recovery cannot detect normal controller shutdown. If the discovery operation fails after WirelessController::stop sets poll_stop, this path can reopen the RX dongle and retry before the worker exits.

Add the stop flag to poll_and_discover. Pass it as Some(stop) to with_transport_recovery from both the polling and binding paths.

237-237: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Atomically claim the shared RX poller.

The local worker-handle check does not prevent a controller clone from starting a second poll loop. Two clones can both set rx_running and concurrently read, flush, and write to the same RX transport. This can consume another loop's discovery response and publish incorrect device state.

Replace store(true, ...) with compare_exchange(false, true, ...) before spawning the worker.

Proposed fix
-        rx_running.store(true, Ordering::Release);
+        anyhow::ensure!(
+            rx_running
+                .compare_exchange(false, true, Ordering::AcqRel, Ordering::Acquire)
+                .is_ok(),
+            "wireless RX poller already running"
+        );
