  91         <description>
  92                 The LinCAN is an implementation of the Linux device driver supporting
  93                 more CAN controller chips and many CAN interface boards. The driver
  94                 roots can be traced to LDDK project. The OCERA version of the LinCAN driver
  95                 adds new features, continuous enhancements and reimplementation of
  96                 structure of the driver. The usage of the driver is tightly coupled to
  97                 the virtual CAN API interface component which hides driver low level
  98                 interface to the application programmers. Driver enables multiple opens
  99                 of each communication objects from more Linux and RT-Linux applications.
 100                 The message processing is based on the oriented graph of FIFOs concept.

 102         <!-- ================================================== Readme -->
 103         <readme>
 104                 The LinCAN version 0.3.x has been successfully tested with
 105                   - PC104 Advantech PCM3680 dual channel board on 2.4 RT-Linux enabled kernel
 106                   - PiKRON ISA card on 2.4.and 2.6 Linux kernels
 107                   - PiKRON CAN extension board for PiMCX1 ARM BCC on 2.6 Linux kernels
 108                   - BfaD DIMM PC card on 2.4 RT-Linux enabled kernel
 109                   - KVASER pcican-q on 2.6 Linux kernel
 110                   - MICROSPACE msmcan on 2.4 Linux kernel with and without RT-Linux support
 111                   - virtual board tested on all systems as well
 112                 There is included support for more than 15 other boards in the LinCAN driver,
 113                 but we do not possess these cards and cannot test support for these cards.

 117                 <!-- Install info if any. Example:-->
 118                 <!-- The code is distributed as a patch file against rtlinux-3.1 source
 119     code plus some new files (examples + doc). In order to install,
 120     please follow next steps:
 121         (1) Configure Makfile variables.
 122                 edit Makefile and set RTLINUX variable
 123                 to your RTLinux copy path.
 124         (2) Type make install
 125         (3) Change to the RTLinux directory. (3.a) type make xconfig. (3.b)
 126                 enable posix signals.
 127                 (3.c)type make clean ; make-->
 128                 The LinCAN make solutions tries to fully automate native
 129                 kernel out of tree module compilation. Make system recurses through
 130                 kernel Makefile to achieve selection of right
 131                 preprocessor, compiler and linker directives.
 132                 The cross-compilation is also possible. Read README file, please.
 133
 134                 Change current directory into the LinCAN driver source root
 135                 directory ("cd lincan-dir") and invoke "make" and "make install".
 136
 137                 Then insert module into the running Linux kernel with parameters
 138                 appropriate to your CAN card ("insmod can.o hw=pip5 irq=4 io=0x8000").
 139                 Please, read associated README file to find full description
 140                 of module parameters.
