What about implementing the standard id/mask approach?

if (canid & mask == id & mask)
        aceept();
else
        discard();

To keep the hot-path as small as possible, the id & mask operation is
done during setup, only one. This is probably just an additional "and"
operation (the "& mask"). This opens the way to act like a normal can
controller.

As long as we don't have any support for hardware filters in socketcan,
it's a good choice to use sysfs to configure your filters.

Have a look at [1] and [2] for how to use sysfs files.

cheers, Marc
