docs: roadmap — future LIN bus simulator planning - #46
Merged
Conversation
Capture a concrete, phased plan for a LIN bus simulator: independent per-slave goroutines with pluggable/faultable response behavior (wrong checksum, wrong PID, silent slave), multi-slave conflict detection, and a stretch-goal cross-process transport (Unix domain socket) that would double as a mechanism for go-LIN/cpp-LIN/rust-LIN interop testing — mirroring what vcan+can-utils gives go-CAN and CycloneDDS gives the DDS family, neither of which LIN has an equivalent for today. Grounded in the current codebase: virtual.Bus is a single shared map with no fault-injection path, slave.Node has no independent behavior, and master.Node already has a real schedule-table engine that a simulator transport can reuse unmodified.

Summary
virtual.Busis a single shared map (no fault-injection path),slave.Nodehas no independent per-slave behavior, andmaster.Node.Runalready implements a real schedule-table engine that a future simulator transport could reuse unmodified.master.Node, (2) fault injection (wrong checksum, wrong PID, silent slave, injected delay) via a decorator pattern mirroring go-DDS'sFaultPublisher, (3) multi-slave conflict detection incl. LDF cross-validation, (4) stretch-goal cross-process transport (Unix domain socket) that would double as a go-LIN/cpp-LIN/rust-LIN interop-testing mechanism — explicitly not a prerequisite for the simulator's core dev/test value.Test plan
