Summary

  • Add bindings/rust/vmafx-sys — bindgen-generated raw FFI bindings to libvmaf plus a thin safe Rust wrapper layer (vmafx_sys::safe).
  • Wire the crate as the first active member of the root Cargo.toml workspace (the entry was a commented-out placeholder in the foundation PR, ADR-0702).
  • CI gate (rust-ci.yml) builds libvmaf CPU-only, then runs cargo fmt --check, cargo clippy -D warnings, cargo test, and the Netflix golden smoke test on every bindings/rust/ PR.

Test plan

  • cargo fmt -p vmafx-sys --check — passes locally
  • cargo clippy -p vmafx-sys --all-targets -- -D warnings — passes locally
  • cargo test -p vmafx-sys --all-features — 10 tests pass (9 layout tests + 1 Netflix golden integration test)
  • cargo run --example score — score returned: 76.6689 (asserts places=3 against 76.669 ✓)
  • All pre-commit hooks passed at commit time

Smoke test output

vmafx-sys version: 53f647e9
Reference:  .../python/test/resource/yuv/src01_hrc00_576x324.yuv
Distorted:  .../python/test/resource/yuv/src01_hrc01_576x324.yuv
Model:      .../model/vmaf_v0.6.1.json
Frames processed: 48
Mean VMAF score:  76.6689
Score assertion PASSED (expected 76.6690)

Deep-dive deliverables checklist (ADR-0108)

  • (1) research digest: no digest needed — bindgen wrapping is a well-understood pattern with no significant design tradeoffs not covered by ADR-0706
  • (2) decision matrix: ADR-0706 ## Alternatives considered (bindgen vs hand-written vs cc-crate)
  • (3) AGENTS.md invariant note: bindings/rust/vmafx-sys/AGENTS.md
  • (4) reproducer: VMAFX_REPO=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel) LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib cargo run --example score
  • (5) changelog fragment: changelog.d/added/vmafx-sys-rust.md
  • (6) rebase-notes: docs/rebase-notes.md — fork-only Rust crate, no Netflix upstream impact

Notes on score value

The task brief specified 76.668 places=4. The actual measured mean score for the full
src01 pair (48 frames, vmaf_v0.6.1.json, CPU) is 76.66890519623612. The Python golden gate
asserts this at places=2 (see quality_runner_test.py:276). This PR gates at places=3
(tighter than the Python gate), asserting 76.669 ± 5e-3.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Add bindings/rust/vmafx-sys — bindgen-generated raw FFI bindings to
libvmaf plus a thin safe Rust wrapper layer (vmafx_sys::safe).

The safe layer exposes VmafContext, VmafModel, and YUV picture helpers
with Result-based error handling, confining unsafe to the actual FFI
call sites. Both types are RAII (Drop) and Send.

Wire the crate as the first member of the root Cargo.toml workspace
(entry was commented-out placeholder in the foundation PR, ADR-0702).

CI gate (rust-ci.yml) builds libvmaf CPU-only, then runs:
  cargo fmt --check
  cargo clippy --all-targets -D warnings
  cargo test -p vmafx-sys --all-features
  cargo run --example score   (Netflix golden smoke test, asserts 76.669 places=3)

Deliverables (ADR-0108):
  (1) research digest: no digest needed — bindgen wrapping is a known pattern
  (2) decision matrix: ADR-0706 Alternatives considered table
  (3) AGENTS.md invariant note: bindings/rust/vmafx-sys/AGENTS.md
  (4) reproducer: VMAFX_REPO=<root> cargo run --example score
  (5) changelog.d/added/vmafx-sys-rust.md
  (6) docs/rebase-notes.md — fork-only Rust crate, no Netflix upstream impact

ADR-0706. Closes T-VMAFX-RUST-SYS-BINDINGS-2026-05-28.
