The linux-can project has moved from gitorious.org to github.com
This has not been updated in the yocto bitbake recipe for the previous generation fsl-release-bsp-3.10.17_1.0.0
I ran in to this issue while compiling the Freescale Linux release 3.10.17 for the SABRE Smart Devices Platform MCIMX6Q-SDP
This HAS been corrected in the latest Freescale release 3.10.53
The bitbake error looks like this:
ERROR: Function failed: Fetcher failure for URL: 'git://git.gitorious.org/linux-can/can-utils.git;protocol=git'. Unable to fetch URL from any source.
ERROR: Logfile of failure stored in: ....../fsl-release-bsp-3.10.17_1.0.0/build/tmp/work/cortexa9hf-vfp-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi/can-utils/1.0-r0/temp/log.do_fetch.93285

The correction I made was to edit the file .../fsl-release-bsp-3.10.17_1.0.0/sources/meta-fsl-bsp-release/imx/meta-fsl-demos/recipes-connectivity/can-utils/can-utils_1.0.bb

Flint,
Care to submit a patch to meta-fsl-arm list?
Thanks,
