Is it possible to set PCAN-USB X6 into passive mode using the socket(netdev from Linux mainline kernel) driver, or is it only possible with chardev driver (compiled from peak website)?

Hello,

To confirm:

Do you mean by "passive mode" listen-only, so no interaction with the bus
apart from reading?

Best Regards

Marvin

Yes, you can with the "listen-only" paramenter:

Code: Select all

sudo ip link set canx up type can bitrate 100000 listen-only on
