Hi,

I am wondering what is the best way to provide
some product information for a CAN interface device (hardware version, 
serialno, firmware version)? My favour way is to generate some files
in sysfs as it is typically (but limited) done for USB devices.

Would /sys/class/net/can*/version be suitable?

Any suggestions?

And next question: how should we implement a way to update
the firmware of a CAN interface? Devices might load firmware on
every driver start. This could be handled by Linux' firmware
mechanism. But what kind of interface should be used for 
a flash firmware updater? /sys/class/net/can*/firmware ?

Further suggestions?

Matthias
