Support for CAN cards from Softing Gmbh & some cards
from Vector Gmbh.
2020-09-16 00:34:55 +02:00
Softing Gmbh CAN cards come with 1 or 2 physical buses.
2011-01-11 04:32:31 +00:00
Those cards typically use Dual Port RAM to communicate
with the host CPU. The interface is then identical for PCI
and PCMCIA cards. This driver operates on a platform device,
which has been created by softing_cs or softing_pci driver.
Warning:
The API of the card does not allow fine control per bus, but
2020-09-16 00:34:55 +02:00
controls the 2 buses on the card together.
2011-01-11 04:32:31 +00:00
As such, some actions (start/stop/busoff recovery) on 1 bus
must bring down the other bus too temporarily.

Support for PCMCIA cards from Softing Gmbh & some cards
from Vector Gmbh.
You need firmware for these, which you can get at

https://github.com/linux-can/can-firmware
2011-01-11 04:34:28 +00:00
This version of the driver is written against
firmware version 4.6 (softing-fw-4.6-binaries.tar.gz)
In order to use the card as CAN device, you need the Softing generic
support too.
