Re: write: No buffer space available

[Oliver Hartkopp <socketcan@hartkopp.net>]

Hello Michael,

there are more than one threads handling the "no buffer space" question :-)

Usually there is no correct CAN network attached to the CAN interface, means:

- there is a least a second CAN node which can acknowledge the sent CAN frames
- the bitrate is identical for all CAN nodes
- the CAN bus is terminated properly (with 2x 120 = 60 Ohms)

If you have a working CAN network try to attach your Linux box and read the
data from the working environment first.

So you can be sure, that the bitrate settings and terminations are correct.

Regards,
Oliver
