[PATCH RFC net-next] can: dev: can_skb_get_dll_len(): introduce function to get data length of frame in data link layer

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Vincent Mailhol <mailhol.vincent@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch adds the function can_skb_get_dll_len() which returns the length of
a CAN frame on the data link layer, including Start-of-frame, Identifier,
various other bits, the CRC, the End-of-frame, the Inter frame spacing and the
actual data.

Hello,

while reviewing the etas_es58X driver and hacking on BQL support for the
mcp251xfd driver, it turned out the a function to calculate the length of the
CAN frame that's send over the wire should go into the generic CAN dev code.

Looking at the CAN and OSI layering I think the first layer where we have all
the bits that we see on the wire is the data link layer (DLL).

https://www.can-cia.org/can-knowledge/can/can-data-link-layers

This is why I named the function can_skb_get_dll_len().

I'm planing to add a (better) calculation of the CAN-FD dll_len, depending on
the data and including different CRC lengths.

As this code is copied from the etas_es58X driver, I've added the authors as
Co-developed-by and I'd like to add their S-o-b to this patch.

Please review and commnt on the naming on the functions.

regards,
Marc

+ * is rounded up to a length in bytes.
+ *
+ * Rationale: this function is to be used for the BQL functions
+ * (netdev_sent_queue() and netdev_completed_queue()) which expect a

+ *
+ * Remarks:
+ * a.) The payload of CAN FD frames with BRS flag are sent at a
+ * different bitrate. Currently, the can-utils canbusload tool does
+ * not support CAN-FD yet and so we could not run any benchmark to
+ * measure the impact. There might be possible improvement here.
+ * b.) The macro CAN_DLL_OVERHEAD_EFF and CAN_DLL_OVERHEAD_SFF are
+ * for classical CAN. Need to do the addition for CAN-FD (the value
+ * are expected to be close enough so the impact should be minimal or
+ * none).
