Hello Kurt,

thanks for the patch.

I really appreciate this extension.

Some remarks inline ...

+  When using recvmsg() call, the msg->msg_flags may contain following flags:
+
+    MSG_DONTROUTE: set when the frame was sent via the same physical device,
+	ie. a loopback frame.
According the code MSG_DONTROUTE indicates frames that have been originated on
the local host. Nothing more.

Only when you enabled CAN_RAW_RECV_OWN_MSGS and you bound the socket to a
specific CAN interface, the description becomes correct.

Better write:

MSG_DONTROUTE : set when the received frame was created on the local host.

+    MSG_CONFIRM: set when the frame was sent via the socket it is received on.
ok.
+	This flag acts as a 'transmission confirmation'.
Better:

This flag can be interpreted as a 'transmission confirmation' when the CAN
driver supports the echo of CAN frames on driver level, see 3.2 and 6.2
