Only CAN_ERR_CRTL_RX_OVERFLOW is currently reported (possible when host
is too slow).
CAN_ERR_CRTL_TX_OVERFLOW is impossible due to the driver design
(tx context + echo).

Which errors are most important to the applications you mentioned?

The hardware does not allow for the sensing of the CAN_ERR_TRX_* errors.
I can sense some  CAN_ERR_PROT_* errors, as well as all CAN_ERR_CRTL_*
errors.

In firmware it is possible to queue error/status frames much like normal
frames. So they would show up in the receive callback... Thats what you
meant by asynchronous right?

Max Schneider.
