Indeed i wonder, if it would make sense to skip the entire struct flexcan_mb approach and fiddle byte-by-byte inside the registers ...You'll have to to 32 bit accesses to get it right on little and big endian. what we can do is: writel(can_data[0] << 24 | can_data[1] << 16 | can_data[2] << 8 | can_data[3], msg_buf + 0x8);This looks easier to understand and makes things clear, when you look into the specification.Ok, I'll change it like this.
OK, even if I do not really share Oliver's concerns. The second write could be suppressed if dlc <= 4. Wolfgang.
