The follow up series which introduces CAN XL is nearly completed but
will be sent only once this one is approved: one thing at a time, I do
not want to overwhelm people (including myself).

If you want a preview of the full CAN XL, you can have a look at my work in
progress here:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mailhol/linux.git/
log/?h=b4/canxl-netlink
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mailhol/iproute2-next.git/log/?h=canxl-netlink

The kernel part is nearly completed, but I am still playing some whack-a-mole to
find potential gaps in the configuration validation. I also need to rewrite or
fine tune the commit description.

The iproute2 part is still under development. It has the PWM interface but I
have not added all the control modes yet.


Thanks Vincent!

The repos are very helpful.

With "missing" control modes you refer to CAN_CTRLMODE_XL_ERR_SIGNAL, CAN_CTRLMODE_XL_RRS and CAN_CTRLMODE_RESTRICTED, right?

Best regards,
Oliver

Regardless, the two links above are just an FYI. Beware that there will be some
random force pushes without any notice. You can play with it but it is
*not* opened for comments until the preparation series is approved.

Looking forward for your comments on this CAN XL preparation series, it took me
a fair amount of effort :)


Yours sincerely,
Vincent Mailhol
