I have those can-utils in my target code so I just copied cangw.c there and added it to the Makefile.... Then I rewrote the Makefile to be less talking and more informative... Then I hardened the compiler flags and then I was busy to remove all those double- and shadow-declarations from all of the tools, including cangw.c...

Ready! Normally, as I just like to mirror vcan0<->can0, my rule should be easy like #cangw -A -s can0 -d vcan0 #cangw -A -s vcan0 -d can0 -e and I run slave and master on vcan0. I don't see the need for any filtering, are you? A first simple compare of candump -ta can0 and candump -ta vcan0 looks pretty fine! Disconnected plug from can0... vcan0 still active -> Good! Reconnecting the debugger... can0 active again -> Good! CanOPEN LEDs constantly showing green... -> Not so perfect but that's one for the next release :) So I guess this is the correct setup?

After cleaning it up I can send you the code or a diff if you like. A big thanks!
