2009-01-06can: omit unneeded skb_clone() callsOliver Hartkopp
The AF_CAN core delivered always cloned sk_buffs to the AF_CAN protocols, although this was _only_ needed by the can-raw protocol. With this (additionally documented) change, the AF_CAN core calls the callback functions of the registered AF_CAN protocols with the original (uncloned) sk_buff pointer and let's the can-raw protocol do the skb_clone() itself which omits all unneeded skb_clone() calls for other AF_CAN protocols.

2008-12-03can: Fix CAN_(EFF|RTR)_FLAG handling in can_filterOliver Hartkopp
Due to a wrong safety check in af_can.c it was not possible to filter for SFF frames with a specific CAN identifier without getting the same selected CAN identifier from a received EFF frame also. This fix has a minimum (but user visible) impact on the CAN filter API and therefore the CAN version is set to a new date. Indeed the 'old' API is still working as-is. But when now setting CAN_(EFF|RTR)_FLAG in can_filter.can_mask you might get less traffic than before - but still the stuff that you expected to get for your defined filter ... Thanks to Kurt Van Dijck for pointing at this issue and for the review. Signed-off-by: Oliver Hartkopp <oliver@hartkopp.net> Acked-by: Kurt Van Dijck <kurt.van.dijck@eia.be> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-01-28[CAN]: Add PF_CAN core moduleOliver Hartkopp
This patch adds the CAN core functionality but no protocols or drivers. No protocol implementations are included here. They come as separate patches. Protocol numbers are already in include/linux/can.h. Signed-off-by: Oliver Hartkopp <oliver.hartkopp@volkswagen.de> Signed-off-by: Urs Thuermann <urs.thuermann@volkswagen.de> Signed-off-by: David S.
