8 ---help---
9 Controller Area Network (CAN) is a slow (up to 1Mbit/s) serial
10 communications protocol which was developed by Bosch in
11 1991, mainly for automotive, but now widely used in marine
12 (NMEA2000), industrial, and medical applications.
13 More information on the CAN network protocol family PF_CAN
14 is contained in <Documentation/networking/can.txt>.

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

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

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

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