That's unsettling. Please do mention it in the commit log, it's an
essential point. Better yet, consider going a bit off-centre after the
regular verification and do a control run on real hardware.

After all, that's what the code is for so if it all possible it's
better to know if it does the actual job before merging (to avoid
noise from follow-up patches like yours which fix something that never
worked because it was never tested).

I would like to request a week's time to integrate a real hardware interface, which will enable me to test and demonstrate end-to-end results. This will also allow me to identify and address any additional issues that may arise during the testing process. Thank you for the feedback.
