Hi Oliver/Wolfgang, > Hello, > > here comes v2 of the patch series posted some time ago. See > > http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=123507025810612&w=4. > > Changes since v1: > > - The SysFS interface has been replaced by the Netlink interface as > suggested by Patrick. For further information have a look to > chapter 6.5 of "Documentation/networking/can.txt" and the header > file "include/linux/can/netdev.h". The patch for the "ip" program of > the iproute2 utility suite will be provided separately. > > - The restart function is now properly protected by "dev->tx_lock" > using the "netif_tx_[lock|unlock]" functions. > > - For the restart, the device driver must now handle CAN_MODE_STOP as > well, apart from CAN_MODE_START to avoid race conditions. > > - The "irq_lock" member of "struct can_priv" has been removed. The CAN > controller driver may should provide its own synchronization if > necessary. > > - The restart function is now protected by "dev->tx_lock" using the > "netif_tx_lock/unlock" functions. > > - Cleanup timer usage for the restart function. > > - The unused do_set/get_ctrlmode member of "struct can_priv" have been > removed. > > - "const" has been added to "struct net_device" for some functions not > allowed to touch that structure. > > - The library functions "can_set_bittiming" and "can_close_cleanup" have > been renamed to the more general names "open_candev" and > "close_candev", respectively. > > - Use "del_timer_sync" instead of "del_timer" for the re-start timer. > > - The macro "ND2D()" has been replaced by "dev->dev.parent" as it does > not make the code more readable. > > - Fix improper BTR setting for triple-sampling for the SJA1000 as > pointed out by Oliver. > > - Dont use __u8 but __u32 as before for some members of "struct > can_bittiming[_const]" to avoid alignment trouble. > > - Definitions shared with user-space applications have been moved to > "include/linux/can/netlink.h". > > - Various other minor correction suggested on the netdev ML. > > - The MSCAN driver for the MPC5200 has been removed. It needs to be > presented on the Linuxppc-dev and Devicetree-discuss ML as well, > which will be done by a sub-sequent patch. > > - Add more source code documentation, especially for the structures > and functions related to bit-timing. > > The PF_CAN protocol family for the Controller Area Network is available > in the kernel since version 2.6.25 but drivers for real CAN devices are > still missing. This patch series adds a generic CAN network device > driver interface and, as a start, a few drivers. It is the result of the > on-going discussion and development of the Socket-CAN project hosted at > the BerliOS web-server (http://developer.berlios.de/projects/socketcan). > The patch series consists of the following patches: > > 1/8) can: Documentation for the CAN device driver interface > 2/8) can: Update MAINTAINERS and CREDITS file > 3/8) can: CAN Network device driver and Netlink interface > 4/8) can: Driver for the SJA1000 CAN controller > 5/8) can: SJA1000 generic platform bus driver > 6/8) can: SJA1000 driver for EMS PCI cards > 7/8) can: SJA1000 driver for Kvaser PCI cards
Would you also like to send a patch to update the testcases for CAN in LTP (http://ltp.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/ltp/ltp/testcases/network/can/filter-tests/) ? These tests were originally picked up from: http://svn.berlios.de/wsvn/socketcan/trunk/test/?rev=877&sc=1 Regards-- Subrata > > Please consider these patches for inclusion. > > Thanks, > > Wolfgang. > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The NEW KODAK i700 Series Scanners deliver under ANY circumstances!
