Yes, of course. You have enabled the TX loopback feature via kernel option:
config XENO_DRIVERS_CAN_TX_LOOPBACK
depends on XENO_DRIVERS_CAN
bool "Enable TX loopback to local sockets"
default n
help
This options adds support for TX loopback to local sockets.
Normally,
messages sent to the CAN bus are not visible to sockets
listening to
the same local device. When this option is enabled, TX messages are
looped back locally when the transmit has been done by default.
This
behaviour can be deactivated or reactivated with "setsockopt".
Enable
this option, if you want to have a "net-alike" behaviour.
From your output:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/xenomai/bin# cat /proc/rtcan/sockets
fd Name___________ Filter ErrMask RX_Timeout_ns TX_Timeout_ns RX_BufFull
TX_Lo
7 rtcan2 1 0x00008 infinite infinite 0 1
TX_Lo tell you that TX messages are loopback to local sockets.
Wolfgang.
