The drivers for MPC5200B's mscan are still in the SocketCAN repository, right. The team is working on getting the patches ready for mainline. rsc -- Dipl.-Ing.

You still need a hardware driver (and one which is SocketCAN compatible). I don't see such a driver for the MSCAN (the hardware on the MPC5200) in the stock 2.6.27 tree. -- Gary Thomas | Consulting for the MLB Associates |Embedded world ___ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
MPC5200B and the CAN interface
Hi Everyone, I am looking for information on how to use the CAN driver for the MPC5200b. I have built the kernel (2.6.27) with the MPC5200b can bus drivers and I see them being initialized on start up. [ 37.122041] can: controller area network core (rev 20071116 abi 8) [ 37.128687] NET: Registered protocol family 29 [ 37.133379] can: raw protocol (rev 20071116) [ 37.137807] can: broadcast manager protocol (rev 20080415) Do I have to define a UDEV rule? Has anyone already written a rule to make the can driver visible in /dev? Any pointers or snippets of code would be greatly appreciated.
