Hello Marc,
Here are my answers.
VAR-SOM-MX8M-Nano board drives MCP2517FD/MCP2518FD (CAN FD controller) and TCAN332G (CAN FD Transceiver) for CAN FD communication.
1) Which commands have you tried?
2) What are the error messages?
Please see below a), b), c), and d).
a) Based on Bit Rate Switching feature in CAN FD, the bit rate at data phase and arbitration phase (or nominal phase) can be set in CAN FD protocol.
So, I tried below.
- command
ip link set can0 type can dbitrate 1000000
- error message
RTNETLINK answers: Operation not supported
b) To turn on FD mode, I tried below.
- command
ip link set can0 type can fd on
- error message
RTNETLINK answers: Operation not supported
c) To send CAN FD message, I tried below. Th
- command
cansend can0 123##1
- error message
CAN interface is not CAN FD capable - sorry.
- help text for cansend
<can_id>#{R|data} for CAN 2.0 frames
<can_id>##<flags>{data} for CAN FD frames
<can_id> can have 3 (SFF) or 8 (EFF) hex chars
{data} has 0..8 (0..64 CAN FD) ASCII hex-values (optionally separated by '.')
<flags> a single ASCII Hex value (0 .. F) which defines canfd_frame.flags
e.g. 5A1#11.2233.44556677.88 / 123#DEADBEEF / 5AA# / 123##1 / 213##311
1F334455#1122334455667788 / 123#R for remote transmission request.
d) TCAN332G (CAN FD Transceiver) can support 5Mbps at data phase in CAN FD mode.
Current supported maximum bitrate in the driver is now 1Mbps at nominal rate.
(FYI, bit rate in data phase at CAN FD protocol is up to 8Mbps)
Where: BITRATE := { 1..1000000 }
SAMPLE-POINT := { 0.000..0.999 }
TQ := { NUMBER }
PROP-SEG := { 1..8 }
PHASE-SEG1 := { 1..8 }
PHASE-SEG2 := { 1..8 }
SJW := { 1..4 }
RESTART-MS := { 0 | NUMBER }
3) What doesn't work exactly?
I would like to send and receive messages in CAN FD with Bit Rate Switching (Arbitration phase: 1Mbps, Data phase: 5Mbps).
So far, CAN FD mode doesn't turn on with above commands.
Thanks,
Jin

Yes it does support CAN-FD.

Which commands have you tried?
What are the error messages?
What doesn't work exactly?

It should be working.
