I don't normally look at CAN patches. Have you considered using devlink? https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/networking/devlink/devlink-info.html fw and asic.id would cover two of your properties. Maybe talk to Jiri about the bootloader. It might make sense to add it is a new common property, or to use a custom property. devlink has the advantage of being a well defined, standardised API, rather than just random, per device sys files. There might also be other interesting features in devlink, once you have basic support. Many Ethernet switch drivers use devlink regions to dump all the registers, for example. Since there is a bootloader, i assume the firmware is upgradeable? devlink supports that. Andrew
