Hi,
I want to use both CAN ports on my iMX6 Quad Plus + Sabre Automotive Base Board (+ Atheros GBit Ethernet).
The problem is that only a single one (CAN2) is available in Linux (as "can0").
I'm using bitbake from the Yocto project to build the SD-card image with Linux.
BSP: FSL Community BSP
Build Configuration file "local.conf" (excerpt):
MACHINE ??= 'imx6qpsabreauto'
DISTRO_FEATURES_remove = "x11 wayland directfb "
IMAGE_INSTALL_append = "iproute2 libsocketcan canutils"
Build command:
bitbake core-image-minimal
According to some other answers in this community portal I've added "can0" to the kernel boot arguments, but it does not help.
The boot log contains only a message that a single can device was registered.
root@imx6qpsabreauto:~# dmesg | grep can
Kernel command line: console=ttymxc3,115200 root=/dev/mmcblk2p2 rootwait rw can0
2094000.can supply xceiver not found, using dummy regulator
flexcan 2094000.can: device registered (reg_base=f0238000, irq=143)
can: controller area network core (rev 20120528 abi 9)
can: raw protocol (rev 20120528)
can: broadcast manager protocol (rev 20120528 t)
can: netlink gateway (rev 20130117) max_hops=1
CAN2 is available as "can0" in Linux and works after configuration:
root@imx6qpsabreauto:~# ifconfig -a

How can I enable CAN1 ?
Thank You.
