You would probably use either -net, or -netdev and -device (see
docs/qdev-device-use.txt).

Is this CAN device just an Ethernet device? QEMU does not support other
link-level protocols. Adding them would be possible and interesting,
however it would add a bit to the complexity.

Both would be the same. In the first case, you'd probably use "-netdev
socket" to share a virtual network between two virtual machines. In the
second, you would use something like "-netdev tap" (again assuming it's
just an Ethernet device).
