Hello,

A driver supporting TCAN4550 can be found below:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/net/can/m_can

This driver will be supported now in the 5.4 Linux kernel.

Hi Max,

Thanks for your reply.

I heard the Linux driver of TCAN4550 is not yet released officially by TI. Is it True. Whether I can use this drive for my production?

This driver can be used in production. It is supported via the mainline kernel as an update to an existing m_can driver. This process took some time, and so we had previously provided the driver code to be compiled as a kernel module while discussions/edits continued as requested by the m_can driver maintainer. As of last week this has been resolved, though, hence the support in the 5.4 kernel.
