Tools based on libpcap (such as tcpdump) expect the SIOCSHWTSTAMP
ioctl call to be supported. This is also specified in the kernel doc
[1]. The purpose of this ioctl is to toggle the hardware timestamps.

Currently, CAN devices which support hardware timestamping have those
always activated. can_eth_ioctl_hwts() is a dumb function that will
always succeed when requested to set tx_type to HWTSTAMP_TX_ON or
rx_filter to HWTSTAMP_FILTER_ALL.

Add function can_ethtool_op_get_ts_info_hwts(). This function will be
used by CAN devices with hardware TX/RX timestamping support to
implement ethtool_ops::get_ts_info. This function does not offer
support to activate/deactivate hardware timestamps at device level nor
support the filter options (which is currently the case for all CAN
devices with hardware timestamping support).

The fact that hardware timestamp can not be deactivated at hardware
level does not impact the userland. As long as the user do not set
SO_TIMESTAMPING using a setsockopt() or ioctl(), the kernel will not
emit TX timestamps (RX timestamps will still be reproted as it is the
case currently).

Drivers which need more fine grained control remains free to implement
their own function, but we foresee that the generic function
introduced here will be sufficient for the majority.

Because of the loopback feature of socket CAN, hardware TX timestamps
are nothing else than the hardware RX timespamp of the corresponding
loopback packet. This patch simply reuses the hardware RX timestamp.

The rationale to clone this timestamp value is that existing tools
which rely of libpcap (such as tcpdump) expect support for both TX and
RX hardware timestamps in order to activate the feature (i.e. no
granular control to activate either of TX or RX hardware timestamps).

Upcoming changes on slcan driver will require you to specify a bitrate
of value -1 to prevent the open_candev() from failing but at the same
time highlighting that it is a fake value. In this case the command
`ip --details -s -s link show' would print 4294967295 as the bitrate
value. The patch change this value in 0.

<title>can: netlink: allow configuring of fixed data bit rates without need for do_set_data_bittiming callback</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch is similar to 7e193a42c37c ("can: netlink: allow
configuring of fixed bit rates without need for do_set_bittiming
callback") but for data bit rates instead of bit rates.

Usually CAN devices support configurable data bit rates. The limits
are defined by struct can_priv::data_bittiming_const. Another way is
to implement the struct can_priv::do_set_data_bittiming callback.

If the bit rate is configured via netlink, the can_changelink()
function checks that either can_priv::data_bittiming_const or struct
can_priv::do_set_data_bittiming is implemented.

In commit 431af779256c ("can: dev: add CAN interface API for fixed
bitrates") an API for configuring bit rates on CAN interfaces that
only support fixed bit rates was added. The supported bit rates are
defined by struct can_priv::bitrate_const.

However the above mentioned commit forgot to add the struct
can_priv::data_bitrate_const to the check in can_changelink().

In order to avoid to implement a no-op can_priv::do_set_data_bittiming
callback on devices with fixed data bit rates, extend the check in
can_changelink() accordingly.

Frames can be directly injected to a can driver via the packet
socket. By doing so, it is possible to reach the
net_device_ops::ndo_start_xmit function even if the driver is
configured in listen only mode.

Add a check in can_dropped_invalid_skb() to discard the skb if
CAN_CTRLMODE_LISTENONLY is set.

The functions can_dropped_invalid_skb() and can_skb_headroom_valid()
grew a lot over the years to a point which it does not make much sense
to have them defined as static inline in header files. Move those two
functions to the .c counterpart of skb.h.

can_skb_headroom_valid()'s only caller being
can_dropped_invalid_skb(), the declaration is removed from the
header. Only can_dropped_invalid_skb() gets its symbol exported.

While doing so, do a small cleanup: add brackets around the else block
in can_dropped_invalid_skb().

Only a few drivers rely on the CAN rx offload framework (as of the
writing of this patch, only four: flexcan, m_can, mcp251xfd and
ti_hecc). Split it out of can-dev and add a new config symbol:
CAN_RX_OFFLOAD.

The drivers relying on CAN rx offload are in different sub
folders. Make CAN_RX_OFFLOAD an hidden option and tag all the drivers
depending on that feature with "select CAN_RX_OFFLOAD" so that the
option gets automatically enabled if and only if one of those drivers
is chosen.

The canonical way to select or deselect an object during compilation
is to use this pattern in the relevant Makefile:

bar-$(CONFIG_FOO) := foo.o

bittiming.c instead uses some #ifdef CONFIG_CAN_CALC_BITTIMG.

Create a new file named calc_bittiming.c with all the functions which
are conditionally compiled with CONFIG_CAN_CALC_BITTIMG and modify the

In the next patches, the software/virtual drivers (slcan, v(x)can)
will depend on drivers/net/can/dev/skb.o.

This patch changes the scope of the can-dev module to include the
above mentioned drivers.

To do so, we reuse the menu "CAN Device Drivers" and turn it into a
configmenu using the config symbol CAN_DEV (which we released in
previous patch). Also, add a description to this new CAN_DEV
menuconfig.

The symbol CAN_DEV now only triggers the build of skb.o. For this
reasons, all the macros from linux/module.h are deported from
drivers/net/can/dev/dev.c to drivers/net/can/dev/skb.c.

Finally, drivers/net/can/dev/Makefile is adjusted accordingly.
