SocketCAN - Controller Area Network

|
Overview / What is SocketCAN
|
|
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The socketcan package is an implementation of CAN protocols
|
|
|
|
(Controller Area Network) for Linux. CAN is a networking technology
|
|
|
|
which has widespread use in automation, embedded devices, and
|
|
|
|
automotive fields. While there have been other CAN implementations
|
|
|
|
for Linux based on character devices, SocketCAN uses the Berkeley
|
|
|
|
socket API, the Linux network stack and implements the CAN device
|
|
|
|
drivers as network interfaces. The CAN socket API has been designed
|
|
|
|
as similar as possible to the TCP/IP protocols to allow programmers,
|
|
|
|
familiar with network programming, to easily learn how to use CAN
|
|
|
|
sockets.

Motivation / Why Using the Socket API
|
|
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There have been CAN implementations for Linux before SocketCAN so the
|
|
|
|
question arises, why we have started another project. Most existing
|
|
|
|
implementations come as a device driver for some CAN hardware, they
|
|
|
|
are based on character devices and provide comparatively little
|
|
|
|
functionality. Usually, there is only a hardware-specific device
|
|
|
|
driver which provides a character device interface to send and
|
|
|
|
receive raw CAN frames, directly to/from the controller hardware.
|
|
|
|
Queueing of frames and higher-level transport protocols like ISO-TP
|
|
|
|
have to be implemented in user space applications. Also, most
|
|
|
|
character-device implementations support only one single process to
|
|
|
|
open the device at a time, similar to a serial interface. Exchanging
|
|
|
|
the CAN controller requires employment of another device driver and
|
|
|
|
often the need for adaption of large parts of the application to the
|
|
|
|
new driver's API.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
SocketCAN was designed to overcome all of these limitations. A new
|
|
|
|
protocol family has been implemented which provides a socket interface
|
|
|
|
to user space applications and which builds upon the Linux network
|
|
|
|
layer, enabling use all of the provided queueing functionality. A device
|
|
|
|
driver for CAN controller hardware registers itself with the Linux
|
|
|
|
network layer as a network device, so that CAN frames from the
|
|
|
|
controller can be passed up to the network layer and on to the CAN
|
|
|
|
protocol family module and also vice-versa. Also, the protocol family
|
|
|
|
module provides an API for transport protocol modules to register, so
|
|
|
|
that any number of transport protocols can be loaded or unloaded
|
|
|
|
dynamically. In fact, the can core module alone does not provide any
|
|
|
|
protocol and cannot be used without loading at least one additional
|
|
|
|
protocol module. Multiple sockets can be opened at the same time,
|
|
|
|
on different or the same protocol module and they can listen/send
|
|
|
|
frames on different or the same CAN IDs. Several sockets listening on
|
|
|
|
the same interface for frames with the same CAN ID are all passed the
|
|
|
|
same received matching CAN frames. An application wishing to
|
|
|
|
communicate using a specific transport protocol, e.g. ISO-TP, just
|
|
|
|
selects that protocol when opening the socket, and then can read and
|
|
|
|
write application data byte streams, without having to deal with
|
|
|
|
CAN-IDs, frames, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Similar functionality visible from user-space could be provided by a
|
|
|
|
character device, too, but this would lead to a technically inelegant
|
|
|
|
solution for a couple of reasons:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* **Intricate usage:** Instead of passing a protocol argument to
|
|
|
|
socket(2) and using bind(2) to select a CAN interface and CAN ID, an
|
|
|
|
application would have to do all these operations using ioctl(2)s.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* **Code duplication:** A character device cannot make use of the Linux
|
|
|
|
network queueing code, so all that code would have to be duplicated
|
|
|
|
for CAN networking.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* **Abstraction:** In most existing character-device implementations, the
|
|
|
|
hardware-specific device driver for a CAN controller directly
|
|
|
|
provides the character device for the application to work with.
|
|
|
|
This is at least very unusual in Unix systems for both, char and
|
|
|
|
block devices. For example you don't have a character device for a
|
|
|
|
certain UART of a serial interface, a certain sound chip in your
|
|
|
|
computer, a SCSI or IDE controller providing access to your hard
|
|
|
|
disk or tape streamer device. Instead, you have abstraction layers
|
|
|
|
which provide a unified character or block device interface to the
|
|
|
|
application on the one hand, and a interface for hardware-specific
|
|
|
|
device drivers on the other hand. These abstractions are provided
|
|
|
|
by subsystems like the tty layer, the audio subsystem or the SCSI
|
|
|
|
and IDE subsystems for the devices mentioned above.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to implement a CAN device driver is as a character
|
|
|
|
device without such a (complete) abstraction layer, as is done by most
|
|
|
|
existing drivers. The right way, however, would be to add such a
|
|
|
|
layer with all the functionality like registering for certain CAN
|
|
|
|
IDs, supporting several open file descriptors and (de)multiplexing
|
|
|
|
CAN frames between them, (sophisticated) queueing of CAN frames, and
|
|
|
|
providing an API for device drivers to register with. However, then
|
|
|
|
it would be no more difficult, or may be even easier, to use the
|
|
|
|
networking framework provided by the Linux kernel, and this is what
|
|
|
|
SocketCAN does.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The use of the networking framework of the Linux kernel is just the
|
|
|
|
natural and most appropriate way to implement CAN for Linux.

SocketCAN Concept
|
|
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As described in :ref:`socketcan-motivation` the main goal of SocketCAN is to
|
|
|
|
provide a socket interface to user space applications which builds
|
|
|
|
upon the Linux network layer. In contrast to the commonly known
|
|
|
|
TCP/IP and ethernet networking, the CAN bus is a broadcast-only(!)
|
|
|
|
medium that has no MAC-layer addressing like ethernet. The CAN-identifier
|
|
|
|
(can_id) is used for arbitration on the CAN-bus. Therefore the CAN-IDs
|
|
|
|
have to be chosen uniquely on the bus. When designing a CAN-ECU
|
|
|
|
network the CAN-IDs are mapped to be sent by a specific ECU.
|
|
|
|
For this reason a CAN-ID can be treated best as a kind of source address.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _socketcan-receive-lists:

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Receive Lists
|
|
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The network transparent access of multiple applications leads to the
|
|
|
|
problem that different applications may be interested in the same
|
|
|
|
CAN-IDs from the same CAN network interface. The SocketCAN core
|
|
|
|
module - which implements the protocol family CAN - provides several
|
|
|
|
high efficient receive lists for this reason. If e.g. a user space
|
|
|
|
application opens a CAN RAW socket, the raw protocol module itself
|
|
|
|
requests the (range of) CAN-IDs from the SocketCAN core that are
|
|
|
|
requested by the user. The subscription and unsubscription of
|
|
|
|
CAN-IDs can be done for specific CAN interfaces or for all(!) known
|
|
|
|
CAN interfaces with the can_rx_(un)register() functions provided to
|
|
|
|
CAN protocol modules by the SocketCAN core (see :ref:`socketcan-core-module`).
|
|
|
|
To optimize the CPU usage at runtime the receive lists are split up
|
|
|
|
into several specific lists per device that match the requested
|
|
|
|
filter complexity for a given use-case.

Local Loopback of Sent Frames
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As known from other networking concepts the data exchanging
|
|
|
|
applications may run on the same or different nodes without any
|
|
|
|
change (except for the according addressing information):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code::

|
-----------------(1)- CAN bus -(2)---------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To ensure that application A receives the same information in the
|
|
|
|
example (2) as it would receive in example (1) there is need for
|
|
|
|
some kind of local loopback of the sent CAN frames on the appropriate
|
|
|
|
node.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Linux network devices (by default) just can handle the
|
|
|
|
transmission and reception of media dependent frames. Due to the
|
|
|
|
arbitration on the CAN bus the transmission of a low prio CAN-ID
|
|
|
|
may be delayed by the reception of a high prio CAN frame. To
|
2018-05-06 22:00:11 +07:00
|
|
|
reflect the correct [#f1]_ traffic on the node the loopback of the sent
|
2018-01-24 17:19:11 +07:00
|
|
|
data has to be performed right after a successful transmission. If
|
|
|
|
the CAN network interface is not capable of performing the loopback for
|
|
|
|
some reason the SocketCAN core can do this task as a fallback solution.
|
|
|
|
See :ref:`socketcan-local-loopback1` for details (recommended).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The loopback functionality is enabled by default to reflect standard
|
|
|
|
networking behaviour for CAN applications. Due to some requests from
|
|
|
|
the RT-SocketCAN group the loopback optionally may be disabled for each
|
|
|
|
separate socket. See sockopts from the CAN RAW sockets in :ref:`socketcan-raw-sockets`.

Network Problem Notifications
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The use of the CAN bus may lead to several problems on the physical
|
|
|
|
and media access control layer. Detecting and logging of these lower
|
|
|
|
layer problems is a vital requirement for CAN users to identify
|
|
|
|
hardware issues on the physical transceiver layer as well as
|
|
|
|
arbitration problems and error frames caused by the different
|
|
|
|
ECUs. The occurrence of detected errors are important for diagnosis
|
|
|
|
and have to be logged together with the exact timestamp. For this
|
|
|
|
reason the CAN interface driver can generate so called Error Message
|
|
|
|
Frames that can optionally be passed to the user application in the
|
|
|
|
same way as other CAN frames. Whenever an error on the physical layer
|
|
|
|
or the MAC layer is detected (e.g. by the CAN controller) the driver
|
|
|
|
creates an appropriate error message frame. Error messages frames can
|
|
|
|
be requested by the user application using the common CAN filter
|
|
|
|
mechanisms. Inside this filter definition the (interested) type of
|
|
|
|
errors may be selected. The reception of error messages is disabled
|
|
|
|
by default. The format of the CAN error message frame is briefly
|
|
|
|
described in the Linux header file "include/uapi/linux/can/error.h".

How to use SocketCAN
|
|
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Like TCP/IP, you first need to open a socket for communicating over a
|
|
|
|
CAN network. Since SocketCAN implements a new protocol family, you
|
|
|
|
need to pass PF_CAN as the first argument to the socket(2) system
|
|
|
|
call. Currently, there are two CAN protocols to choose from, the raw
|
|
|
|
socket protocol and the broadcast manager (BCM). So to open a socket,
|
|
|
|
you would write::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
s = socket(PF_CAN, SOCK_RAW, CAN_RAW);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
s = socket(PF_CAN, SOCK_DGRAM, CAN_BCM);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
respectively. After the successful creation of the socket, you would
|
|
|
|
normally use the bind(2) system call to bind the socket to a CAN
|
|
|
|
interface (which is different from TCP/IP due to different addressing
|
|
|
|
- see :ref:`socketcan-concept`). After binding (CAN_RAW) or connecting (CAN_BCM)
|
|
|
|
the socket, you can read(2) and write(2) from/to the socket or use
|
|
|
|
send(2), sendto(2), sendmsg(2) and the recv* counterpart operations
|
|
|
|
on the socket as usual. There are also CAN specific socket options
|
|
|
|
described below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The basic CAN frame structure and the sockaddr structure are defined
|
|
|
|
in include/linux/can.h:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct can_frame {
|
|
|
|
canid_t can_id; /* 32 bit CAN_ID + EFF/RTR/ERR flags */
|
|
|
|
__u8 can_dlc; /* frame payload length in byte (0 .. 8) */
|
|
|
|
__u8 __pad; /* padding */
|
|
|
|
__u8 __res0; /* reserved / padding */
|
|
|
|
__u8 __res1; /* reserved / padding */
|
|
|
|
__u8 data[8] __attribute__((aligned(8)));
|
|
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The alignment of the (linear) payload data[] to a 64bit boundary
|
|
|
|
allows the user to define their own structs and unions to easily access
|
|
|
|
the CAN payload. There is no given byteorder on the CAN bus by
|
|
|
|
default. A read(2) system call on a CAN_RAW socket transfers a
|
|
|
|
struct can_frame to the user space.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The sockaddr_can structure has an interface index like the
|
|
|
|
PF_PACKET socket, that also binds to a specific interface:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct sockaddr_can {
|
|
|
|
sa_family_t can_family;
|
|
|
|
int can_ifindex;
|
|
|
|
union {
|
|
|
|
/* transport protocol class address info (e.g. ISOTP) */
|
|
|
|
struct { canid_t rx_id, tx_id; } tp;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* reserved for future CAN protocols address information */
|
|
|
|
} can_addr;
|
|
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To determine the interface index an appropriate ioctl() has to
|
|
|
|
be used (example for CAN_RAW sockets without error checking):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
int s;
|
|
|
|
struct sockaddr_can addr;
|
|
|
|
struct ifreq ifr;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
s = socket(PF_CAN, SOCK_RAW, CAN_RAW);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
strcpy(ifr.ifr_name, "can0" );
|
|
|
|
ioctl(s, SIOCGIFINDEX, &ifr);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
addr.can_family = AF_CAN;
|
|
|
|
addr.can_ifindex = ifr.ifr_ifindex;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
bind(s, (struct sockaddr *)&addr, sizeof(addr));
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(..)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To bind a socket to all(!) CAN interfaces the interface index must
|
|
|
|
be 0 (zero). In this case the socket receives CAN frames from every
|
|
|
|
enabled CAN interface. To determine the originating CAN interface
|
|
|
|
the system call recvfrom(2) may be used instead of read(2). To send
|
|
|
|
on a socket that is bound to 'any' interface sendto(2) is needed to
|
|
|
|
specify the outgoing interface.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reading CAN frames from a bound CAN_RAW socket (see above) consists
|
|
|
|
of reading a struct can_frame:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct can_frame frame;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
nbytes = read(s, &frame, sizeof(struct can_frame));
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
if (nbytes < 0) {
|
|
|
|
perror("can raw socket read");
|
|
|
|
return 1;
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* paranoid check ... */
|
|
|
|
if (nbytes < sizeof(struct can_frame)) {
|
|
|
|
fprintf(stderr, "read: incomplete CAN frame\n");
|
|
|
|
return 1;
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* do something with the received CAN frame */
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Writing CAN frames can be done similarly, with the write(2) system call::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
nbytes = write(s, &frame, sizeof(struct can_frame));
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the CAN interface is bound to 'any' existing CAN interface
|
|
|
|
(addr.can_ifindex = 0) it is recommended to use recvfrom(2) if the
|
|
|
|
information about the originating CAN interface is needed:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct sockaddr_can addr;
|
|
|
|
struct ifreq ifr;
|
|
|
|
socklen_t len = sizeof(addr);
|
|
|
|
struct can_frame frame;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
nbytes = recvfrom(s, &frame, sizeof(struct can_frame),
|
|
|
|
0, (struct sockaddr*)&addr, &len);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* get interface name of the received CAN frame */
|
|
|
|
ifr.ifr_ifindex = addr.can_ifindex;
|
|
|
|
ioctl(s, SIOCGIFNAME, &ifr);
|
|
|
|
printf("Received a CAN frame from interface %s", ifr.ifr_name);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To write CAN frames on sockets bound to 'any' CAN interface the
|
|
|
|
outgoing interface has to be defined certainly:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
strcpy(ifr.ifr_name, "can0");
|
|
|
|
ioctl(s, SIOCGIFINDEX, &ifr);
|
|
|
|
addr.can_ifindex = ifr.ifr_ifindex;
|
|
|
|
addr.can_family = AF_CAN;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
nbytes = sendto(s, &frame, sizeof(struct can_frame),
|
|
|
|
0, (struct sockaddr*)&addr, sizeof(addr));
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An accurate timestamp can be obtained with an ioctl(2) call after reading
|
|
|
|
a message from the socket:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct timeval tv;
|
|
|
|
ioctl(s, SIOCGSTAMP, &tv);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The timestamp has a resolution of one microsecond and is set automatically
|
|
|
|
at the reception of a CAN frame.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Remark about CAN FD (flexible data rate) support:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Generally the handling of CAN FD is very similar to the formerly described
|
|
|
|
examples. The new CAN FD capable CAN controllers support two different
|
|
|
|
bitrates for the arbitration phase and the payload phase of the CAN FD frame
|
|
|
|
and up to 64 bytes of payload. This extended payload length breaks all the
|
|
|
|
kernel interfaces (ABI) which heavily rely on the CAN frame with fixed eight
|
|
|
|
bytes of payload (struct can_frame) like the CAN_RAW socket. Therefore e.g.
|
|
|
|
the CAN_RAW socket supports a new socket option CAN_RAW_FD_FRAMES that
|
|
|
|
switches the socket into a mode that allows the handling of CAN FD frames
|
|
|
|
and (legacy) CAN frames simultaneously (see :ref:`socketcan-rawfd`).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The struct canfd_frame is defined in include/linux/can.h:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct canfd_frame {
|
|
|
|
canid_t can_id; /* 32 bit CAN_ID + EFF/RTR/ERR flags */
|
|
|
|
__u8 len; /* frame payload length in byte (0 .. 64) */
|
|
|
|
__u8 flags; /* additional flags for CAN FD */
|
|
|
|
__u8 __res0; /* reserved / padding */
|
|
|
|
__u8 __res1; /* reserved / padding */
|
|
|
|
__u8 data[64] __attribute__((aligned(8)));
|
|
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The struct canfd_frame and the existing struct can_frame have the can_id,
|
|
|
|
the payload length and the payload data at the same offset inside their
|
|
|
|
structures. This allows to handle the different structures very similar.
|
|
|
|
When the content of a struct can_frame is copied into a struct canfd_frame
|
|
|
|
all structure elements can be used as-is - only the data[] becomes extended.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When introducing the struct canfd_frame it turned out that the data length
|
|
|
|
code (DLC) of the struct can_frame was used as a length information as the
|
|
|
|
length and the DLC has a 1:1 mapping in the range of 0 .. 8. To preserve
|
|
|
|
the easy handling of the length information the canfd_frame.len element
|
|
|
|
contains a plain length value from 0 .. 64. So both canfd_frame.len and
|
|
|
|
can_frame.can_dlc are equal and contain a length information and no DLC.
|
|
|
|
For details about the distinction of CAN and CAN FD capable devices and
|
|
|
|
the mapping to the bus-relevant data length code (DLC), see :ref:`socketcan-can-fd-driver`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The length of the two CAN(FD) frame structures define the maximum transfer
|
|
|
|
unit (MTU) of the CAN(FD) network interface and skbuff data length. Two
|
|
|
|
definitions are specified for CAN specific MTUs in include/linux/can.h:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#define CAN_MTU (sizeof(struct can_frame)) == 16 => 'legacy' CAN frame
|
|
|
|
#define CANFD_MTU (sizeof(struct canfd_frame)) == 72 => CAN FD frame

RAW Protocol Sockets with can_filters (SOCK_RAW)
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using CAN_RAW sockets is extensively comparable to the commonly
|
|
|
|
known access to CAN character devices. To meet the new possibilities
|
|
|
|
provided by the multi user SocketCAN approach, some reasonable
|
|
|
|
defaults are set at RAW socket binding time:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The filters are set to exactly one filter receiving everything
|
|
|
|
- The socket only receives valid data frames (=> no error message frames)
|
|
|
|
- The loopback of sent CAN frames is enabled (see :ref:`socketcan-local-loopback2`)
|
|
|
|
- The socket does not receive its own sent frames (in loopback mode)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These default settings may be changed before or after binding the socket.
|
|
|
|
To use the referenced definitions of the socket options for CAN_RAW
|
|
|
|
sockets, include <linux/can/raw.h>.
|
|

|
|

|
|
.. _socketcan-rawfilter:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RAW socket option CAN_RAW_FILTER
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The reception of CAN frames using CAN_RAW sockets can be controlled
|
|
|
|
by defining 0 .. n filters with the CAN_RAW_FILTER socket option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The CAN filter structure is defined in include/linux/can.h:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct can_filter {
|
|
|
|
canid_t can_id;
|
|
|
|
canid_t can_mask;
|
|
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A filter matches, when:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<received_can_id> & mask == can_id & mask
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
which is analogous to known CAN controllers hardware filter semantics.
|
|
|
|
The filter can be inverted in this semantic, when the CAN_INV_FILTER
|
|
|
|
bit is set in can_id element of the can_filter structure. In
|
|
|
|
contrast to CAN controller hardware filters the user may set 0 .. n
|
|
|
|
receive filters for each open socket separately:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct can_filter rfilter[2];
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
rfilter[0].can_id = 0x123;
|
|
|
|
rfilter[0].can_mask = CAN_SFF_MASK;
|
|
|
|
rfilter[1].can_id = 0x200;
|
|
|
|
rfilter[1].can_mask = 0x700;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
setsockopt(s, SOL_CAN_RAW, CAN_RAW_FILTER, &rfilter, sizeof(rfilter));
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To disable the reception of CAN frames on the selected CAN_RAW socket:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
setsockopt(s, SOL_CAN_RAW, CAN_RAW_FILTER, NULL, 0);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To set the filters to zero filters is quite obsolete as to not read
|
|
|
|
data causes the raw socket to discard the received CAN frames. But
|
|
|
|
having this 'send only' use-case we may remove the receive list in the
|
|
|
|
Kernel to save a little (really a very little!) CPU usage.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CAN Filter Usage Optimisation
|
|
|
|
.............................
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The CAN filters are processed in per-device filter lists at CAN frame
|
|
|
|
reception time. To reduce the number of checks that need to be performed
|
|
|
|
while walking through the filter lists the CAN core provides an optimized
|
|
|
|
filter handling when the filter subscription focusses on a single CAN ID.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For the possible 2048 SFF CAN identifiers the identifier is used as an index
|
|
|
|
to access the corresponding subscription list without any further checks.
|
|
|
|
For the 2^29 possible EFF CAN identifiers a 10 bit XOR folding is used as
|
|
|
|
hash function to retrieve the EFF table index.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To benefit from the optimized filters for single CAN identifiers the
|
|
|
|
CAN_SFF_MASK or CAN_EFF_MASK have to be set into can_filter.mask together
|
|
|
|
with set CAN_EFF_FLAG and CAN_RTR_FLAG bits. A set CAN_EFF_FLAG bit in the
|
|
|
|
can_filter.mask makes clear that it matters whether a SFF or EFF CAN ID is
|
|
|
|
subscribed. E.g. in the example from above:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
rfilter[0].can_id = 0x123;
|
|
|
|
rfilter[0].can_mask = CAN_SFF_MASK;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
both SFF frames with CAN ID 0x123 and EFF frames with 0xXXXXX123 can pass.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To filter for only 0x123 (SFF) and 0x12345678 (EFF) CAN identifiers the
|
|
|
|
filter has to be defined in this way to benefit from the optimized filters:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct can_filter rfilter[2];
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
rfilter[0].can_id = 0x123;
|
|
|
|
rfilter[0].can_mask = (CAN_EFF_FLAG | CAN_RTR_FLAG | CAN_SFF_MASK);
|
|
|
|
rfilter[1].can_id = 0x12345678 | CAN_EFF_FLAG;
|
|
|
|
rfilter[1].can_mask = (CAN_EFF_FLAG | CAN_RTR_FLAG | CAN_EFF_MASK);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
setsockopt(s, SOL_CAN_RAW, CAN_RAW_FILTER, &rfilter, sizeof(rfilter));
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RAW Socket Option CAN_RAW_ERR_FILTER
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As described in :ref:`socketcan-network-problem-notifications` the CAN interface driver can generate so
|
|
|
|
called Error Message Frames that can optionally be passed to the user
|
|
|
|
application in the same way as other CAN frames. The possible
|
|
|
|
errors are divided into different error classes that may be filtered
|
|
|
|
using the appropriate error mask. To register for every possible
|
|
|
|
error condition CAN_ERR_MASK can be used as value for the error mask.
|
|
|
|
The values for the error mask are defined in linux/can/error.h:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
can_err_mask_t err_mask = ( CAN_ERR_TX_TIMEOUT | CAN_ERR_BUSOFF );
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
setsockopt(s, SOL_CAN_RAW, CAN_RAW_ERR_FILTER,
|
|
|
|
&err_mask, sizeof(err_mask));
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RAW Socket Option CAN_RAW_LOOPBACK
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To meet multi user needs the local loopback is enabled by default
|
|
|
|
(see :ref:`socketcan-local-loopback1` for details). But in some embedded use-cases
|
|
|
|
(e.g. when only one application uses the CAN bus) this loopback
|
|
|
|
functionality can be disabled (separately for each socket):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
int loopback = 0; /* 0 = disabled, 1 = enabled (default) */
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
setsockopt(s, SOL_CAN_RAW, CAN_RAW_LOOPBACK, &loopback, sizeof(loopback));
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RAW socket option CAN_RAW_RECV_OWN_MSGS
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the local loopback is enabled, all the sent CAN frames are
|
|
|
|
looped back to the open CAN sockets that registered for the CAN
|
|
|
|
frames' CAN-ID on this given interface to meet the multi user
|
|
|
|
needs. The reception of the CAN frames on the same socket that was
|
|
|
|
sending the CAN frame is assumed to be unwanted and therefore
|
|
|
|
disabled by default. This default behaviour may be changed on
|
|
|
|
demand:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
int recv_own_msgs = 1; /* 0 = disabled (default), 1 = enabled */
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
setsockopt(s, SOL_CAN_RAW, CAN_RAW_RECV_OWN_MSGS,
|
|
|
|
&recv_own_msgs, sizeof(recv_own_msgs));
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _socketcan-rawfd:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RAW Socket Option CAN_RAW_FD_FRAMES
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CAN FD support in CAN_RAW sockets can be enabled with a new socket option
|
|
|
|
CAN_RAW_FD_FRAMES which is off by default. When the new socket option is
|
|
|
|
not supported by the CAN_RAW socket (e.g. on older kernels), switching the
|
|
|
|
CAN_RAW_FD_FRAMES option returns the error -ENOPROTOOPT.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once CAN_RAW_FD_FRAMES is enabled the application can send both CAN frames
|
|
|
|
and CAN FD frames. OTOH the application has to handle CAN and CAN FD frames
|
|
|
|
when reading from the socket:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CAN_RAW_FD_FRAMES enabled: CAN_MTU and CANFD_MTU are allowed
|
|
|
|
CAN_RAW_FD_FRAMES disabled: only CAN_MTU is allowed (default)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[ remember: CANFD_MTU == sizeof(struct canfd_frame) ]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct canfd_frame cfd;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
nbytes = read(s, &cfd, CANFD_MTU);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
if (nbytes == CANFD_MTU) {
|
|
|
|
printf("got CAN FD frame with length %d\n", cfd.len);
|
|
|
|
/* cfd.flags contains valid data */
|
|
|
|
} else if (nbytes == CAN_MTU) {
|
|
|
|
printf("got legacy CAN frame with length %d\n", cfd.len);
|
|
|
|
/* cfd.flags is undefined */
|
|
|
|
} else {
|
|
|
|
fprintf(stderr, "read: invalid CAN(FD) frame\n");
|
|
|
|
return 1;
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* the content can be handled independently from the received MTU size */
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
printf("can_id: %X data length: %d data: ", cfd.can_id, cfd.len);
|
|
|
|
for (i = 0; i < cfd.len; i++)
|
|
|
|
printf("%02X ", cfd.data[i]);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When reading with size CANFD_MTU only returns CAN_MTU bytes that have
|
|
|
|
been received from the socket a legacy CAN frame has been read into the
|
|
|
|
provided CAN FD structure. Note that the canfd_frame.flags data field is
|
|
|
|
not specified in the struct can_frame and therefore it is only valid in
|
|
|
|
CANFD_MTU sized CAN FD frames.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Implementation hint for new CAN applications:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build a CAN FD aware application use struct canfd_frame as basic CAN
|
|
|
|
data structure for CAN_RAW based applications. When the application is
|
|
|
|
executed on an older Linux kernel and switching the CAN_RAW_FD_FRAMES
|
|
|
|
socket option returns an error: No problem. You'll get legacy CAN frames
|
|
|
|
or CAN FD frames and can process them the same way.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When sending to CAN devices make sure that the device is capable to handle
|
|
|
|
CAN FD frames by checking if the device maximum transfer unit is CANFD_MTU.
|
|
|
|
The CAN device MTU can be retrieved e.g. with a SIOCGIFMTU ioctl() syscall.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RAW socket option CAN_RAW_JOIN_FILTERS
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The CAN_RAW socket can set multiple CAN identifier specific filters that
|
|
|
|
lead to multiple filters in the af_can.c filter processing. These filters
|
|
|
|
are indenpendent from each other which leads to logical OR'ed filters when
|
|
|
|
applied (see :ref:`socketcan-rawfilter`).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This socket option joines the given CAN filters in the way that only CAN
|
|
|
|
frames are passed to user space that matched *all* given CAN filters. The
|
|
|
|
semantic for the applied filters is therefore changed to a logical AND.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is useful especially when the filterset is a combination of filters
|
|
|
|
where the CAN_INV_FILTER flag is set in order to notch single CAN IDs or
|
|
|
|
CAN ID ranges from the incoming traffic.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RAW Socket Returned Message Flags
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When using recvmsg() call, the msg->msg_flags may contain following flags:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MSG_DONTROUTE:
|
|
|
|
set when the received frame was created on the local host.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MSG_CONFIRM:
|
|
|
|
set when the frame was sent via the socket it is received on.
|
|
|
|
This flag can be interpreted as a 'transmission confirmation' when the
|
|
|
|
CAN driver supports the echo of frames on driver level, see
|
|
|
|
:ref:`socketcan-local-loopback1` and :ref:`socketcan-local-loopback2`.
|
|
|
|
In order to receive such messages, CAN_RAW_RECV_OWN_MSGS must be set.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Broadcast Manager Protocol Sockets (SOCK_DGRAM)
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Broadcast Manager protocol provides a command based configuration
|
|
|
|
interface to filter and send (e.g. cyclic) CAN messages in kernel space.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Receive filters can be used to down sample frequent messages; detect events
|
|
|
|
such as message contents changes, packet length changes, and do time-out
|
|
|
|
monitoring of received messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Periodic transmission tasks of CAN frames or a sequence of CAN frames can be
|
|
|
|
created and modified at runtime; both the message content and the two
|
|
|
|
possible transmit intervals can be altered.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A BCM socket is not intended for sending individual CAN frames using the
|
|
|
|
struct can_frame as known from the CAN_RAW socket. Instead a special BCM
|
|
|
|
configuration message is defined. The basic BCM configuration message used
|
|
|
|
to communicate with the broadcast manager and the available operations are
|
|
|
|
defined in the linux/can/bcm.h include. The BCM message consists of a
|
|
|
|
message header with a command ('opcode') followed by zero or more CAN frames.
|
|
|
|
The broadcast manager sends responses to user space in the same form:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct bcm_msg_head {
|
|
|
|
__u32 opcode; /* command */
|
|
|
|
__u32 flags; /* special flags */
|
|
|
|
__u32 count; /* run 'count' times with ival1 */
|
|
|
|
struct timeval ival1, ival2; /* count and subsequent interval */
|
|
|
|
canid_t can_id; /* unique can_id for task */
|
|
|
|
__u32 nframes; /* number of can_frames following */
|
|
|
|
struct can_frame frames[0];
|
|
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The aligned payload 'frames' uses the same basic CAN frame structure defined
|
|
|
|
at the beginning of :ref:`socketcan-rawfd` and in the include/linux/can.h include. All
|
|
|
|
messages to the broadcast manager from user space have this structure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note a CAN_BCM socket must be connected instead of bound after socket
|
|
|
|
creation (example without error checking):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
int s;
|
|
|
|
struct sockaddr_can addr;
|
|
|
|
struct ifreq ifr;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
s = socket(PF_CAN, SOCK_DGRAM, CAN_BCM);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
strcpy(ifr.ifr_name, "can0");
|
|
|
|
ioctl(s, SIOCGIFINDEX, &ifr);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
addr.can_family = AF_CAN;
|
|
|
|
addr.can_ifindex = ifr.ifr_ifindex;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
connect(s, (struct sockaddr *)&addr, sizeof(addr));
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(..)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The broadcast manager socket is able to handle any number of in flight
|
|
|
|
transmissions or receive filters concurrently. The different RX/TX jobs are
|
|
|
|
distinguished by the unique can_id in each BCM message. However additional
|
|
|
|
CAN_BCM sockets are recommended to communicate on multiple CAN interfaces.
|
|
|
|
When the broadcast manager socket is bound to 'any' CAN interface (=> the
|
|
|
|
interface index is set to zero) the configured receive filters apply to any
|
|
|
|
CAN interface unless the sendto() syscall is used to overrule the 'any' CAN
|
|
|
|
interface index. When using recvfrom() instead of read() to retrieve BCM
|
|
|
|
socket messages the originating CAN interface is provided in can_ifindex.

Broadcast Manager Operations
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The opcode defines the operation for the broadcast manager to carry out,
|
|
|
|
or details the broadcast managers response to several events, including
|
|
|
|
user requests.

|
|
|
|
|
|
TX_EXPIRED:
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Receive Operations (user space to broadcast manager):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
RX_DELETE:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Broadcast Manager Message Flags
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When sending a message to the broadcast manager the 'flags' element may
|
|
|
|
contain the following flag definitions which influence the behaviour:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
SETTIMER:
|
|
|
|
Set the values of ival1, ival2 and count
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
STARTTIMER:
|
|
|
|
Start the timer with the actual values of ival1, ival2
|
|
|
|
and count. Starting the timer leads simultaneously to emit a CAN frame.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
TX_COUNTEVT:
|
|
|
|
Create the message TX_EXPIRED when count expires
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
TX_ANNOUNCE:
|
|
|
|
A change of data by the process is emitted immediately.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
TX_CP_CAN_ID:
|
|
|
|
Copies the can_id from the message header to each
|
|
|
|
subsequent frame in frames. This is intended as usage simplification. For
|
|
|
|
TX tasks the unique can_id from the message header may differ from the
|
|
|
|
can_id(s) stored for transmission in the subsequent struct can_frame(s).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RX_FILTER_ID:
|
|
|
|
Filter by can_id alone, no frames required (nframes=0).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RX_CHECK_DLC:
|
|
|
|
A change of the DLC leads to an RX_CHANGED.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RX_NO_AUTOTIMER:
|
|
|
|
Prevent automatically starting the timeout monitor.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RX_ANNOUNCE_RESUME:
|
|
|
|
If passed at RX_SETUP and a receive timeout occurred, a
|
|
|
|
RX_CHANGED message will be generated when the (cyclic) receive restarts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
TX_RESET_MULTI_IDX:
|
|
|
|
Reset the index for the multiple frame transmission.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RX_RTR_FRAME:
|
|
|
|
Send reply for RTR-request (placed in op->frames[0]).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Broadcast Manager Transmission Timers
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Periodic transmission configurations may use up to two interval timers.
|
|
|
|
In this case the BCM sends a number of messages ('count') at an interval
|
|
|
|
'ival1', then continuing to send at another given interval 'ival2'. When
|
|
|
|
only one timer is needed 'count' is set to zero and only 'ival2' is used.
|
|
|
|
When SET_TIMER and START_TIMER flag were set the timers are activated.
|
|
|
|
The timer values can be altered at runtime when only SET_TIMER is set.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Broadcast Manager message sequence transmission
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Up to 256 CAN frames can be transmitted in a sequence in the case of a cyclic
|
|
|
|
TX task configuration. The number of CAN frames is provided in the 'nframes'
|
|
|
|
element of the BCM message head. The defined number of CAN frames are added
|
|
|
|
as array to the TX_SETUP BCM configuration message:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* create a struct to set up a sequence of four CAN frames */
|
|
|
|
struct {
|
|
|
|
struct bcm_msg_head msg_head;
|
|
|
|
struct can_frame frame[4];
|
|
|
|
} mytxmsg;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(..)
|
|
|
|
mytxmsg.msg_head.nframes = 4;
|
|
|
|
(..)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
write(s, &mytxmsg, sizeof(mytxmsg));
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With every transmission the index in the array of CAN frames is increased
|
|
|
|
and set to zero at index overflow.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Broadcast Manager Receive Filter Timers
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The timer values ival1 or ival2 may be set to non-zero values at RX_SETUP.
|
|
|
|
When the SET_TIMER flag is set the timers are enabled:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ival1:
|
|
|
|
Send RX_TIMEOUT when a received message is not received again within
|
|
|
|
the given time. When START_TIMER is set at RX_SETUP the timeout detection
|
|
|
|
is activated directly - even without a former CAN frame reception.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ival2:
|
|
|
|
Throttle the received message rate down to the value of ival2. This
|
|
|
|
is useful to reduce messages for the application when the signal inside the
|
|
|
|
CAN frame is stateless as state changes within the ival2 periode may get
|
|
|
|
lost.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Broadcast Manager Multiplex Message Receive Filter
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To filter for content changes in multiplex message sequences an array of more
|
|
|
|
than one CAN frames can be passed in a RX_SETUP configuration message. The
|
|
|
|
data bytes of the first CAN frame contain the mask of relevant bits that
|
|
|
|
have to match in the subsequent CAN frames with the received CAN frame.
|
|
|
|
If one of the subsequent CAN frames is matching the bits in that frame data
|
|
|
|
mark the relevant content to be compared with the previous received content.
|
|
|
|
Up to 257 CAN frames (multiplex filter bit mask CAN frame plus 256 CAN
|
|
|
|
filters) can be added as array to the TX_SETUP BCM configuration message:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/* usually used to clear CAN frame data[] - beware of endian problems! */
|
|
|
|
#define U64_DATA(p) (*(unsigned long long*)(p)->data)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct {
|
|
|
|
struct bcm_msg_head msg_head;
|
|
|
|
struct can_frame frame[5];
|
|
|
|
} msg;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
msg.msg_head.opcode = RX_SETUP;
|
|
|
|
msg.msg_head.can_id = 0x42;
|
|
|
|
msg.msg_head.flags = 0;
|
|
|
|
msg.msg_head.nframes = 5;
|
|
|
|
U64_DATA(&msg.frame[0]) = 0xFF00000000000000ULL; /* MUX mask */
|
|
|
|
U64_DATA(&msg.frame[1]) = 0x01000000000000FFULL; /* data mask (MUX 0x01) */
|
|
|
|
U64_DATA(&msg.frame[2]) = 0x0200FFFF000000FFULL; /* data mask (MUX 0x02) */
|
|
|
|
U64_DATA(&msg.frame[3]) = 0x330000FFFFFF0003ULL; /* data mask (MUX 0x33) */
|
|
|
|
U64_DATA(&msg.frame[4]) = 0x4F07FC0FF0000000ULL; /* data mask (MUX 0x4F) */
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
write(s, &msg, sizeof(msg));
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Broadcast Manager CAN FD Support
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The programming API of the CAN_BCM depends on struct can_frame which is
|
|
|
|
given as array directly behind the bcm_msg_head structure. To follow this
|
|
|
|
schema for the CAN FD frames a new flag 'CAN_FD_FRAME' in the bcm_msg_head
|
|
|
|
flags indicates that the concatenated CAN frame structures behind the
|
|
|
|
bcm_msg_head are defined as struct canfd_frame:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct {
|
|
|
|
struct bcm_msg_head msg_head;
|
|
|
|
struct canfd_frame frame[5];
|
|
|
|
} msg;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
msg.msg_head.opcode = RX_SETUP;
|
|
|
|
msg.msg_head.can_id = 0x42;
|
|
|
|
msg.msg_head.flags = CAN_FD_FRAME;
|
|
|
|
msg.msg_head.nframes = 5;
|
|
|
|
(..)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When using CAN FD frames for multiplex filtering the MUX mask is still
|
|
|
|
expected in the first 64 bit of the struct canfd_frame data section.

SocketCAN Core Module
|
|
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The SocketCAN core module implements the protocol family
|
|
|
|
PF_CAN. CAN protocol modules are loaded by the core module at
|
|
|
|
runtime. The core module provides an interface for CAN protocol
|
|
|
|
modules to subscribe needed CAN IDs (see :ref:`socketcan-receive-lists`).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
can.ko Module Params
|
|
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- **stats_timer**:
|
|
|
|
To calculate the SocketCAN core statistics
|
|
|
|
(e.g. current/maximum frames per second) this 1 second timer is
|
|
|
|
invoked at can.ko module start time by default. This timer can be
|
|
|
|
disabled by using stattimer=0 on the module commandline.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- **debug**:
|
|
|
|
(removed since SocketCAN SVN r546)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
procfs content
|
|
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As described in :ref:`socketcan-receive-lists` the SocketCAN core uses several filter
|
|
|
|
lists to deliver received CAN frames to CAN protocol modules. These
|
|
|
|
receive lists, their filters and the count of filter matches can be
|
|
|
|
checked in the appropriate receive list. All entries contain the
|
|
|
|
device and a protocol module identifier::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
foo@bar:~$ cat /proc/net/can/rcvlist_all
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
receive list 'rx_all':
|
|
|
|
(vcan3: no entry)
|
|
|
|
(vcan2: no entry)
|
|
|
|
(vcan1: no entry)
|
|
|
|
device can_id can_mask function userdata matches ident
|
|
|
|
vcan0 000 00000000 f88e6370 f6c6f400 0 raw
|
|
|
|
(any: no entry)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In this example an application requests any CAN traffic from vcan0::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
rcvlist_all - list for unfiltered entries (no filter operations)
|
|
|
|
rcvlist_eff - list for single extended frame (EFF) entries
|
|
|
|
rcvlist_err - list for error message frames masks
|
|
|
|
rcvlist_fil - list for mask/value filters
|
|
|
|
rcvlist_inv - list for mask/value filters (inverse semantic)
|
|
|
|
rcvlist_sff - list for single standard frame (SFF) entries
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additional procfs files in /proc/net/can::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stats - SocketCAN core statistics (rx/tx frames, match ratios, ...)
|
|
|
|
reset_stats - manual statistic reset
|
|
|
|
version - prints the SocketCAN core version and the ABI version
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Writing Own CAN Protocol Modules
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To implement a new protocol in the protocol family PF_CAN a new
|
|
|
|
protocol has to be defined in include/linux/can.h .
|
|
|
|
The prototypes and definitions to use the SocketCAN core can be
|
|
|
|
accessed by including include/linux/can/core.h .
|
|
|
|
In addition to functions that register the CAN protocol and the
|
|
|
|
CAN device notifier chain there are functions to subscribe CAN
|
|
|
|
frames received by CAN interfaces and to send CAN frames::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
can_rx_register - subscribe CAN frames from a specific interface
|
|
|
|
can_rx_unregister - unsubscribe CAN frames from a specific interface
|
|
|
|
can_send - transmit a CAN frame (optional with local loopback)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For details see the kerneldoc documentation in net/can/af_can.c or
|
|
|
|
the source code of net/can/raw.c or net/can/bcm.c .

CAN Network Drivers
|
|
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Writing a CAN network device driver is much easier than writing a
|
|
|
|
CAN character device driver. Similar to other known network device
|
|
|
|
drivers you mainly have to deal with:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- TX: Put the CAN frame from the socket buffer to the CAN controller.
|
|
|
|
- RX: Put the CAN frame from the CAN controller to the socket buffer.

|
|
|
for writing CAN network device driver are described below:
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
General Settings
|
|
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: C
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
dev->type = ARPHRD_CAN; /* the netdevice hardware type */
|
|
|
|
dev->flags = IFF_NOARP; /* CAN has no arp */
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
dev->mtu = CAN_MTU; /* sizeof(struct can_frame) -> legacy CAN interface */
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
or alternative, when the controller supports CAN with flexible data rate:
|
|
|
|
dev->mtu = CANFD_MTU; /* sizeof(struct canfd_frame) -> CAN FD interface */
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The struct can_frame or struct canfd_frame is the payload of each socket
|
|
|
|
buffer (skbuff) in the protocol family PF_CAN.

.. _socketcan-local-loopback2:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Local Loopback of Sent Frames
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As described in :ref:`socketcan-local-loopback1` the CAN network device driver should
|
|
|
|
support a local loopback functionality similar to the local echo
|
|
|
|
e.g. of tty devices. In this case the driver flag IFF_ECHO has to be
|
|
|
|
set to prevent the PF_CAN core from locally echoing sent frames
|
|
|
|
(aka loopback) as fallback solution::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
dev->flags = (IFF_NOARP | IFF_ECHO);
|
|
|

To reduce the interrupt load on deep embedded systems some CAN
|
|
|
|
controllers support the filtering of CAN IDs or ranges of CAN IDs.
|
|
|
|
These hardware filter capabilities vary from controller to
|
|
|
|
controller and have to be identified as not feasible in a multi-user
|
|
|
|
networking approach. The use of the very controller specific
|
|
|
|
hardware filters could make sense in a very dedicated use-case, as a
|
|
|
|
filter on driver level would affect all users in the multi-user
|
|
|
|
system. The high efficient filter sets inside the PF_CAN core allow
|
|
|
|
to set different multiple filters for each socket separately.
|
|
|
|
Therefore the use of hardware filters goes to the category 'handmade
|
|
|
|
tuning on deep embedded systems'. The author is running a MPC603e
|
|
|
|
@133MHz with four SJA1000 CAN controllers from 2002 under heavy bus
|
|
|
|
load without any problems ...

The Virtual CAN Driver (vcan)
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Similar to the network loopback devices, vcan offers a virtual local
|
|
|
|
CAN interface. A full qualified address on CAN consists of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- a unique CAN Identifier (CAN ID)
|
|
|
|
- the CAN bus this CAN ID is transmitted on (e.g. can0)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
so in common use cases more than one virtual CAN interface is needed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The virtual CAN interfaces allow the transmission and reception of CAN
|
|
|
|
frames without real CAN controller hardware. Virtual CAN network
|
|
|
|
devices are usually named 'vcanX', like vcan0 vcan1 vcan2 ...
|
|
|
|
When compiled as a module the virtual CAN driver module is called vcan.ko
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since Linux Kernel version 2.6.24 the vcan driver supports the Kernel
|
|
|
|
netlink interface to create vcan network devices. The creation and
|
|
|
|
removal of vcan network devices can be managed with the ip(8) tool::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Create a virtual CAN network interface:
|
|
|
|
$ ip link add type vcan
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Create a virtual CAN network interface with a specific name 'vcan42':
|
|
|
|
$ ip link add dev vcan42 type vcan
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Remove a (virtual CAN) network interface 'vcan42':
|
|
|
|
$ ip link del vcan42
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The CAN Network Device Driver Interface
|
|
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The CAN network device driver interface provides a generic interface
|
|
|
|
to setup, configure and monitor CAN network devices. The user can then
|
|
|
|
configure the CAN device, like setting the bit-timing parameters, via
|
|
|
|
the netlink interface using the program "ip" from the "IPROUTE2"
|
|
|
|
utility suite. The following chapter describes briefly how to use it.
|
|
|
|
Furthermore, the interface uses a common data structure and exports a
|
|
|
|
set of common functions, which all real CAN network device drivers
|
|
|
|
should use. Please have a look to the SJA1000 or MSCAN driver to
|
|
|
|
understand how to use them. The name of the module is can-dev.ko.

Netlink interface to set/get devices properties
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The CAN device must be configured via netlink interface. The supported
|
|
|
|
netlink message types are defined and briefly described in
|
|
|
|
"include/linux/can/netlink.h". CAN link support for the program "ip"
|
|
|
|
of the IPROUTE2 utility suite is available and it can be used as shown
|
|
|
|
below:

|
|
LISTEN-ONLY, or TRIPLE-SAMPLING.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"state ERROR-ACTIVE"
|

"ERROR-WARNING", "ERROR-PASSIVE", "BUS-OFF" or "STOPPED"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"restart-ms 100"
|
|
|
|
Automatic restart delay time. If set to a non-zero value, a

|
|
|
restart of the CAN controller will be triggered automatically
|
|
|
|
in case of a bus-off condition after the specified delay time

in milliseconds. By default it's off.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"bitrate 125000 sample-point 0.875"
|
|
|

|
|
|
range 0.000..0.999. If the calculation of bit-timing parameters
|
|
|
|
is enabled in the kernel (CONFIG_CAN_CALC_BITTIMING=y), the
|
|
|
|
bit-timing can be defined by setting the "bitrate" argument.
|
|
|
|
Optionally the "sample-point" can be specified. By default it's
|
|
|
|
0.000 assuming CIA-recommended sample-points.

|
|
|
|
|
|
"tq 125 prop-seg 6 phase-seg1 7 phase-seg2 2 sjw 1"

|
Shows the time quanta in ns, propagation segment, phase buffer
|
|
|
|
segment 1 and 2 and the synchronisation jump width in units of
|
|
|
|
tq. They allow to define the CAN bit-timing in a hardware
|
|
|
|
independent format as proposed by the Bosch CAN 2.0 spec (see
|
|
|
|
chapter 8 of http://www.semiconductors.bosch.de/pdf/can2spec.pdf).

Shows the bit-timing constants of the CAN controller, here the
|
|
|
|
"sja1000". The minimum and maximum values of the time segment 1
|
|
|
|
and 2, the synchronisation jump width in units of tq, the
|
|
|
|
bitrate pre-scaler and the CAN system clock frequency in Hz.
|
|
|
|
These constants could be used for user-defined (non-standard)
|
|
|
|
bit-timing calculation algorithms in user-space.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"re-started bus-errors arbit-lost error-warn error-pass bus-off"
|
|
|
|
Shows the number of restarts, bus and arbitration lost errors,
|
|
|
|
and the state changes to the error-warning, error-passive and
|
|
|
|
bus-off state. RX overrun errors are listed in the "overrun"
|
|
|
|
field of the standard network statistics.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setting the CAN Bit-Timing
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The CAN bit-timing parameters can always be defined in a hardware
|
|
|
|
independent format as proposed in the Bosch CAN 2.0 specification
|
|
|
|
specifying the arguments "tq", "prop_seg", "phase_seg1", "phase_seg2"
|
|
|
|
and "sjw"::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ ip link set canX type can tq 125 prop-seg 6 \
|
|
|
|
phase-seg1 7 phase-seg2 2 sjw 1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the kernel option CONFIG_CAN_CALC_BITTIMING is enabled, CIA
|
|
|
|
recommended CAN bit-timing parameters will be calculated if the bit-
|
|
|
|
rate is specified with the argument "bitrate"::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ ip link set canX type can bitrate 125000
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that this works fine for the most common CAN controllers with
|
|
|
|
standard bit-rates but may *fail* for exotic bit-rates or CAN system
|
|
|
|
clock frequencies. Disabling CONFIG_CAN_CALC_BITTIMING saves some
|
|
|
|
space and allows user-space tools to solely determine and set the
|
|
|
|
bit-timing parameters. The CAN controller specific bit-timing
|
|
|
|
constants can be used for that purpose. They are listed by the
|
|
|
|
following command::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ ip -details link show can0
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
sja1000: clock 8000000 tseg1 1..16 tseg2 1..8 sjw 1..4 brp 1..64 brp-inc 1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Starting and Stopping the CAN Network Device
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A CAN network device is started or stopped as usual with the command
|
|
|
|
"ifconfig canX up/down" or "ip link set canX up/down". Be aware that
|
|
|
|
you *must* define proper bit-timing parameters for real CAN devices
|
|
|
|
before you can start it to avoid error-prone default settings::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ ip link set canX up type can bitrate 125000
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A device may enter the "bus-off" state if too many errors occurred on
|
|
|
|
the CAN bus. Then no more messages are received or sent. An automatic
|
|
|
|
bus-off recovery can be enabled by setting the "restart-ms" to a
|
|
|
|
non-zero value, e.g.::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ ip link set canX type can restart-ms 100
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, the application may realize the "bus-off" condition
|
|
|
|
by monitoring CAN error message frames and do a restart when
|
|
|
|
appropriate with the command::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ ip link set canX type can restart
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that a restart will also create a CAN error message frame (see
|
|
|
|
also :ref:`socketcan-network-problem-notifications`).

CAN FD (Flexible Data Rate) Driver Support
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CAN FD capable CAN controllers support two different bitrates for the
|
|
|
|
arbitration phase and the payload phase of the CAN FD frame. Therefore a
|
|
|
|
second bit timing has to be specified in order to enable the CAN FD bitrate.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additionally CAN FD capable CAN controllers support up to 64 bytes of
|
|
|
|
payload. The representation of this length in can_frame.can_dlc and
|
|
|
|
canfd_frame.len for userspace applications and inside the Linux network
|
|
|
|
layer is a plain value from 0 .. 64 instead of the CAN 'data length code'.
|
|
|
|
The data length code was a 1:1 mapping to the payload length in the legacy
|
|
|
|
CAN frames anyway. The payload length to the bus-relevant DLC mapping is
|
|
|
|
only performed inside the CAN drivers, preferably with the helper
|
|
|
|
functions can_dlc2len() and can_len2dlc().
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The CAN netdevice driver capabilities can be distinguished by the network
|
|
|
|
devices maximum transfer unit (MTU)::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MTU = 16 (CAN_MTU) => sizeof(struct can_frame) => 'legacy' CAN device
|
|
|
|
MTU = 72 (CANFD_MTU) => sizeof(struct canfd_frame) => CAN FD capable device
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The CAN device MTU can be retrieved e.g. with a SIOCGIFMTU ioctl() syscall.
|
|
|
|
N.B. CAN FD capable devices can also handle and send legacy CAN frames.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When configuring CAN FD capable CAN controllers an additional 'data' bitrate
|
|
|
|
has to be set. This bitrate for the data phase of the CAN FD frame has to be
|
|
|
|
at least the bitrate which was configured for the arbitration phase. This
|
|
|
|
second bitrate is specified analogue to the first bitrate but the bitrate
|
|
|
|
setting keywords for the 'data' bitrate start with 'd' e.g. dbitrate,
|
|
|
|
dsample-point, dsjw or dtq and similar settings. When a data bitrate is set
|
|
|
|
within the configuration process the controller option "fd on" can be
|
|
|
|
specified to enable the CAN FD mode in the CAN controller. This controller
|
|
|
|
option also switches the device MTU to 72 (CANFD_MTU).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first CAN FD specification presented as whitepaper at the International
|
|
|
|
CAN Conference 2012 needed to be improved for data integrity reasons.
|
|
|
|
Therefore two CAN FD implementations have to be distinguished today:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- ISO compliant: The ISO 11898-1:2015 CAN FD implementation (default)
|
|
|
|
- non-ISO compliant: The CAN FD implementation following the 2012 whitepaper
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Finally there are three types of CAN FD controllers:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. ISO compliant (fixed)
|
|
|
|
2. non-ISO compliant (fixed, like the M_CAN IP core v3.0.1 in m_can.c)
|
|
|
|
3. ISO/non-ISO CAN FD controllers (switchable, like the PEAK PCAN-USB FD)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The current ISO/non-ISO mode is announced by the CAN controller driver via
|
|
|
|
netlink and displayed by the 'ip' tool (controller option FD-NON-ISO).
|
|
|
|
The ISO/non-ISO-mode can be altered by setting 'fd-non-iso {on|off}' for
|
|
|
|
switchable CAN FD controllers only.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example configuring 500 kbit/s arbitration bitrate and 4 Mbit/s data bitrate::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ ip link set can0 up type can bitrate 500000 sample-point 0.75 \
|

|
|
|
|
clock 80000000
|
|
|
|
|
|

Example when 'fd-non-iso on' is added on this switchable CAN FD adapter::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
can <FD,FD-NON-ISO> state ERROR-ACTIVE (berr-counter tx 0 rx 0) restart-ms 0
