Hm, that's unusual. Cable disconnected and then send a message:

$ grep /proc/interrupts; sleep 10; /proc/interrupts

should make things clear. But maybe it's a clever chip and it does stop
sending error messages if the error counter does not change any more.
After bus-off, the chip is quiet, of course. Should have a closer look
to the CAN standard.


The interrupt count does not increment after device reaches
tx-error-passive (with cable disconnected).

OK, then there is no good reason connecting the STAT interrupt pin.
