This patch is the userland counterpart of [1]. Indeed, [1] allows the
can netlink interface to report the CAN controller capabilities.
Previously, only the options which were switched on were reported
(i.e. can_priv::ctrlmode). Here, we add two additional pieces of
information to the json report:
- ctrlmode_supported: the options that can be modified by netlink
- ctrlmode_static: option which are statically enabled by the driver
(i.e. can not be turned off)
For your information, we borrowed the naming convention from struct
can_priv[2].
Contrary to the ctrlmode, the ctrlmode_{supported,_static} are only
reported in the json context. The reason is that this newly added
information can quickly become very verbose and we do not want to
overload the default output. You can think of the --details output as
the verbose mode and the --details --json output as the *very* verbose
mode.
*Example:*
This is how the output would look like for a dummy driver which would
have:
- FCAN_CTRLMODE_FD_NON_ISO statically enabled by the driver
- CAN_CTRLMODE_CC_LEN8_DLC turned on by the user
- CAN_CTRLMODE_LOOPBACK, CAN_CTRLMODE_LISTENONLY,
CAN_CTRLMODE_3_SAMPLES, CAN_CTRLMODE_FD, CAN_CTRLMODE_CC_LEN8_DLC
supported by the driver

I tried to think a lot of what would be the best way to report the
ctrlmode_{supported,_static} in the default (non-json) context and
just concluded that this was too much info.
That said, I warmly welcome any ideas of how to add
ctrlmode_{supported,_static} to the default output while keeping
things sexy.
