The proposed method reuses the existing struct can_ctrlmode and thus do not need a new IFLA_CAN_* entry. Currently, the CAN netlink interface provides no easy ways to check the capabilities of a given controller. The only method from the command line is to try each CAN_CTRLMODE_* individually to check whether the netlink interface returns an -EOPNOTSUPP error or not (alternatively, one may find it easier to directly check the source code of the driver instead...) It appears that can_ctrlmode::mask is only used in one direction: from the userland to the kernel. So we can just reuse this field in the other direction (from the kernel to userland). But, because the semantic is different, we use a union to give this field a proper name: "supported". Below table explains how the two fields can_ctrlmode::supported and can_ctrlmode::flags, when masked with any of the CAN_CTRLMODE_* bit flags, allow us to identify both the supported and the static capabilities: supported & flags & Controller capabilities CAN_CTRLMODE_* CAN_CTRLMODE_* ----------------------------------------------------------------------- false false Feature not supported (always disabled) false true Static feature (always enabled) true false Feature supported but disabled true true Feature supported and enabled Signed-off-by: Vincent Mailhol --- Please refer to below link for the iproute2-next counterpart of this patch: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-can/20211003050147.569044-1-mailhol.vincent@wanadoo.fr/T/#t --- drivers/net/can/dev/netlink.c | 5 ++++- include/uapi/linux/can/netlink.h | 5 ++++- 2 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/can/dev/netlink.c b/drivers/net/can/dev/netlink.c index 26c336808be5..32e1eb63ee7d 100644 --- a/drivers/net/can/dev/netlink.c +++ b/drivers/net/can/dev/netlink.c @@ -475,7 +475,10 @@ static int can_tdc_fill_info(struct sk_buff *skb, const struct net_device *dev) static int can_fill_info(struct sk_buff *skb, const struct net_device *dev) { struct can_priv *priv = netdev_priv(dev); - struct can_ctrlmode cm = {.flags = priv->ctrlmode}; + struct can_ctrlmode cm = { + .supported = priv->ctrlmode_supported, + .flags = priv->ctrlmode + }; struct can_berr_counter bec = { }; enum can_state state = priv->state; diff --git a/include/uapi/linux/can/netlink.h b/include/uapi/linux/can/netlink.h index 75b85c60efb2..b846922ac18f 100644 --- a/include/uapi/linux/can/netlink.h +++ b/include/uapi/linux/can/netlink.h @@ -88,7 +88,10 @@ struct can_berr_counter { * CAN controller mode */ struct can_ctrlmode { - __u32 mask; + union { + __u32 mask; /* Userland to kernel */ + __u32 supported; /* Kernel to userland */ + }; __u32 flags; };
