									  Support for CAN cards from Softing Gmbh & some cards
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 |

									  from Vector Gmbh.
							 |

							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  Softing Gmbh CAN cards come with 1 or 2 physical busses.
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  Those cards typically use Dual Port RAM to communicate
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  with the host CPU. The interface is then identical for PCI
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  and PCMCIA cards. This driver operates on a platform device,
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  which has been created by softing_cs or softing_pci driver.
							 |

							 | 
							
							
									  Warning:
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  The API of the card does not allow fine control per bus, but
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  controls the 2 busses on the card together.
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  As such, some actions (start/stop/busoff recovery) on 1 bus
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
									  must bring down the other bus too temporarily.
