Subject: ip link valid options checking
Date: Wed, 7 Jul 2021 13:45:16 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <002501d77357$d93c36b0$8bb4a410$@gmail.com> (raw)

Good Afternoon,

Do any of you know a way to check what options are valid when setting up a
CAN device with the ip link commands, either from bash or through C++? I'm
working on a piece of code that will get used on systems with varying CAN
drivers and for instance one of them doesn't support CAN-FD, so how would I
be able to know that setting the fd flag or dbitrate value would fail before
calling the setup command and seeing it fail?

Thanks,

Josh Q
