the PF_CAN protocol family for the Controller Area Network is available
in the kernel since version 2.6.25 but drivers for real CAN devices are
still missing. This patch series adds a generic CAN network device
driver interface and, as a start, a few drivers. It is the result of the
ongoing discussion and development of the Socket-CAN project hosted at
the BerliOS web-server (http://developer.berlios.de/projects/socketcan).
The patch series consists of the following patches:

[PATCH 1/8] can: Documentation for the CAN device driver interface
[PATCH 2/8] can: Update MAINTAINERS and CREDITS file
[PATCH 3/8] can: CAN Network device driver and SYSFS interface
[PATCH 4/8] can: Driver for the SJA1000 CAN controller
[PATCH 5/8] can: SJA1000 generic platform bus driver
[PATCH 6/8] can: SJA1000 driver for EMS PCI cards
[PATCH 7/8] can: SJA1000 driver for Kvaser PCI cards
[PATCH 8/8] can: Driver for the Freescale MSCAN controller

Please consider these patches for inclusion.

Thanks,

Wolfgang.
