Setting UP CAN interface in ICS

Muhammad Salih

Hi,

I am using Android ICS 4.0.3. I am trying the bring up the CAN interface in ICS. While booting the android in the system, its showing the below message in the kernel.

flexcan imx6q-flexcan.0: bit-timing not yet defined

I am trying to set the bitrate using below command:

ip link set can0 type can bitrate 125000

At the time, I am getting the below error as shown:

Garbage instead of arguments "bitrate ...". Try "ip link help".

The interface also not UP as I checked using below command.

#netcfg

lo UP 127.0.0.1/8 0x00000049 00:00:00:00:00:00

can0 DOWN 0.0.0.0/0 0x00000080 00:00:00:00:00:00

eth0 UP 169.254.133.195/16 0x00001043 1e:ed:19:27:1a:b3

sit0 DOWN 0.0.0.0/0 0x00000080 00:00:00:00:00:00

ip6tnl0 DOWN 0.0.0.0/0 0x00000080 00:00:00:00:00:00

Please give me any suggestion to solve this issue. I am strugging with this issue for 20 days.

Thanks in advance,

Hi Vishveshwar,

I added those patches and compiled. Still I am getting the same error. I don't know it was compiled or not. Because in that patch, the can directory is not present in the source.

I don't know how to add the directory in the source to compile. Can you suggest me any solution to solve this. Still I am getting the same.

Thanks in advance

Regards,

Salih

I do not have any experience with CAN on android.

I would suggest you post your query at our rowboat forum to reach a wider audience.
