10 | Controller Area Network (CAN) is a slow (up to 1Mbit/s) serial | |
26bca9fe RD |
11 | communications protocol. Development of the CAN bus started in |
12 | 1983 at Robert Bosch GmbH, and the protocol was officially | |
13 | released in 1986. The CAN bus was originally mainly for automotive, | |
14 | but is now widely used in marine (NMEA2000), industrial, and medical | |
15 | applications. More information on the CAN network protocol family | |
16 | PF_CAN is contained in <Documentation/networking/can.rst>. | |

18 | If you want CAN support you should say Y here and also to the | |
19 | specific driver for your controller(s) below. | |

26 | ---help--- |
27 | The raw CAN protocol option offers access to the CAN bus via | |
28 | the BSD socket API. You probably want to use the raw socket in | |
29 | most cases where no higher level protocol is being used. The raw | |
30 | socket has several filter options e.g. ID masking / error frames. | |
31 | To receive/send raw CAN messages, use AF_CAN with protocol CAN_RAW. | |

36 | ---help--- |
37 | The Broadcast Manager offers content filtering, timeout monitoring, | |
38 | sending of RTR frames, and cyclic CAN messages without permanent user | |
39 | interaction. The BCM can be 'programmed' via the BSD socket API and | |
40 | informs you on demand e.g. only on content updates / timeouts. | |
41 | You probably want to use the bcm socket in most cases where cyclic | |
42 | CAN messages are used on the bus (e.g. in automotive environments). | |
43 | To use the Broadcast Manager, use AF_CAN with protocol CAN_BCM. | |

48 | ---help--- |
49 | The CAN Gateway/Router is used to route (and modify) CAN frames. | |
50 | It is based on the PF_CAN core infrastructure for msg filtering and | |
51 | msg sending and can optionally modify routed CAN frames on the fly. | |
52 | CAN frames can be routed between CAN network interfaces (one hop). | |
53 | They can be modified with AND/OR/XOR/SET operations as configured | |
54 | by the netlink configuration interface known e.g. from iptables. | |
