The individual busses +can be connected to host system CAN API (at this time only Linux +SocketCAN is supported). + +The concept of busses is generic and different CAN controllers +can be implemented for it but at this time only SJA1000 chip +controller is implemented. + +The PCI addon card hardware has been selected as the first CAN +interface to implement because such device can be easily connected +to systems with different CPU architectures (x86, PowerPC, ARM, etc.). + +The project has been initially started in frame of RTEMS GSoC 2013 +slot by Jin Yang under our mentoring The initial idea was to provide generic +CAN subsystem for RTEMS.
