Stefan Tatschner aecd89e855 can-doc: Add hint about getting timestamps
This patch adds a hint about how to get timestamps of received
CAN frames with ioctl(2). This hint has been applied to the
former SocketCAN Documentation, but it got lost during mainlining
the first bits and pieces to linux kernel.

Oliver Hartkopp ac78a15de4 can: Add documentation for CAN FD driver configuration
With Linux 3.15 the infrastructure for CAN FD hardware drivers had been
introduced into the kernel. Now the M_CAN driver and the peak_usb driver
support CAN FD. Update the documentation to show the latest CAN related
configuration options of 'ip' from iproute2 and describe the CAN FD specific
options to set the data bitrate and protocol version (ISO/non-ISO).

Oliver Hartkopp a5581ef4c2 can: introduce new raw socket option to join the given CAN filters
The CAN_RAW socket can set multiple CAN identifier specific filters that lead
to multiple filters in the af_can.c filter processing. These filters are
indenpendent from each other which leads to logical OR'ed filters when applied.

This socket option joines the given CAN filters in the way that only CAN frames
are passed to user space that matched *all* given CAN filters. The semantic for
the applied filters is therefore changed to a logical AND.

This is useful especially when the filterset is a combination of filters where
the CAN_INV_FILTER flag is set in order to notch single CAN IDs or CAN ID
ranges from the incoming traffic.

As the raw_rcv() function is executed from NET_RX softirq the introduced
variables are implemented as per-CPU variables to avoid extensive locking at
CAN frame reception time.

Oliver Hartkopp 821047c405 can: remove CAN FD compatibility for CAN 2.0 sockets
In commit e2d265d3b5 (canfd: add support for CAN FD in CAN_RAW sockets)
CAN FD frames with a payload length up to 8 byte are passed to legacy
sockets where the CAN FD support was not enabled by the application.

After some discussions with developers at a fair this well meant feature
leads to confusion as no clean switch for CAN / CAN FD is provided to the
application programmer. Additionally a compatibility like this for legacy
CAN_RAW sockets requires some compatibility handling for the sending, e.g.
make CAN2.0 frames a CAN FD frame with BRS at transmission time (?!?).

This will become a mess when people start to develop applications with
real CAN FD hardware. This patch reverts the bad compatibility code
together with the documentation describing the removed feature.

Oliver Hartkopp 1e55659ce6 can-raw: add msg_flags to distinguish local traffic
CAN has no addressing scheme. It is currently impossible for userspace
to tell is a received CAN frame comes from another process on the local
host, or from a remote CAN device.

This patch add support for userspace applications to distinguish between
'own', 'local' and 'remote' CAN traffic. The distinction is made by returning
flags in msg->msg_flags in the call to recvmsg().

The added documentation explains the introduced flags.
