Well, that seems sophisticated resulting in a complex implementation
(may code line) also because hardware filters are very hardware
dependent. Usually just one global filter can be defined. I think that's

  ip link set can0 type can filter <id>:<mask> [<id>:<mask> ...]

would just be fine.

Ok, fair enough. Still I would suggest you first come up with
a reasonable user interface (the one you posted may be just right,
I don't know), and then let someone do the implementation in the
pruss firmware that is the best match for the user interface, rather
than the other way around.
