RIOT implementation of CAN bus relies on SocketCAN model.
Since commit c398e56 (can: add optional DLC element to Classical CAN
frame structure), '__u8 can_dlc' attribute of struct can_frame is
considered as deprecated in SocketCAN and kept for legacy support.
Attribute '__u8 len' should be used instead.
union {
/* CAN frame payload length in byte (0 .. CAN_MAX_DLEN)
* was previously named can_dlc so we need to carry that
* name for legacy support
*/
__u8 len;
__u8 can_dlc; /* deprecated */
};
Moreover, CAN FD frame structure does not support legacy attribute
'can_dlc', making 'len' mandatory for incoming CAN FD support in RIOT.
struct canfd_frame {
canid_t can_id; /* 32 bit CAN_ID + EFF/RTR/ERR flags */
__u8 len; /* frame payload length in byte */
__u8 flags; /* additional flags for CAN FD */
__u8 __res0; /* reserved / padding */
__u8 __res1; /* reserved / padding */
__u8 data[CANFD_MAX_DLEN]
__attribute__((aligned(8)));
};
