I am trying to get a Waveshare CAN interface[1] running on an RPi4 using 
meta-raspberrypi with hardknott.

I have added ENABLE_SPI_BUS = “1” and ENABLE_DUAL_CAN = “1” to my local.conf 
and see the following at boot:

[    2.858284] CAN device driver interface
[    2.879431] mcp251x spi0.1 can0: MCP2515 successfully initialized.
[    2.891019] mcp251x spi0.0 can1: MCP2515 successfully initialized.
[  176.170231] can: controller area network core
[  176.178987] can: raw protocol

So, the interfaces are detected.

However, I cannot bring the interfaces up. I am expecting to use something like:

  ip link set can0 up type can bitrate 1000000
  ifconfig can0 up

But that results in :

  ip: either "dev" is duplicate, or "type" is garbage

This appears to be due to the ‘ip’ command not working with Busybox, so I tried 
adding iproute2 to the image, but the command then hangs the system.

I have tried skipping the ‘ip’ command, but ifconfig then reports:

  ifconfig: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Invalid argument

I can get some information for the interface:

  ip -s -d link show can0
    link/can  promiscuity 0 minmtu 0 maxmtu 0 
    can state STOPPED restart-ms 0 
          mcp251x: tseg1 3..16 tseg2 2..8 sjw 1..4 brp 1..64 brp-inc 1
          clock 8000000 
          re-started bus-errors arbit-lost error-warn error-pass bus-off
          0          0          0          0          0          0         
numtxqueues 1 numrxqueues 1 gso_max_size 65536 gso_max_segs 65535 
    RX: bytes  packets  errors  dropped missed  mcast   
    0          0        0       0       0       0       
    TX: bytes  packets  errors  dropped carrier collsns 
    0          0        0       0       0       0       

What do I need to do to bring the interface up?
