Hello Prashanth S,
the design for the rx data path including the RxFIFO looks promising. If nobody is working on it yet, I would try to implement it. You said it still needs to be approved - who do I have to contact for this?
I think you misunderstood me about the ioctl api. My main question was why command and buffer are not passed to the dev_ioctl here:
bus->can_dev_ops->dev_ioctl(bus->priv, NULL, 0);
Regards

Betreff: Re: CAN driver implementation for Xilinx Zynq
Hello @Carlo Brokering,

All the best for your Internship.

Currently, the CAN framework has minimal rx support. The design of the rx data path in the CAN Framework is ready (You could use that design if approved or you can have your own design).
Note: The tx data path has been implemented, it supports multiple open among different tasks, configurable buffers.

The bsp CAN driver should register the ioctl api with the CAN Framework for device specific commands (To add commands for hardware independent functionality the commands can be added before "if (bus == NULL || bus->can_dev_ops->dev_ioctl == NULL)" statement.
struct can_dev_ops dev_ops (.dev_ioctl member should be registered).

For the overview of the CAN framework, tx, rx, data paths you can refer the docs files in the gitlab link (.puml version of the docs are also available if you needed (https://gitlab.com/slpp95prashanth/gsoc-2022/-/commit/f42e192afefdd94a66456181f9d169f0728d5b4f)).
You can use the gitlab https://gitlab.com/slpp95prashanth/gsoc-2022/-/tree/can-bsp-docs/can-docs link for the design documents.
