Help text

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.
