These seem to be some reminders of the old Socket-CAN support merged into that tree (master branch). I will clean that up a.s.a.p.

Reading your answer made me hope again, and I just pulled the newest HEAD from the mainline kernel and tried it once more. Now it compiles. Thanks for retriggering me again. All the other's sill have problems, except pengutronix, most of them with an inconsistency (with the socket CAN files?), which shows up as 'struct can_bittime_std' declared inside parameter list in net/can/dev.c:69 So I assume we will switch to the mainline kernel, which we already use for Atom based x86 development on the MEN boards.

Hm, kernel.org's "linux-2.6.34.tar.bz2" builds here just fine with
lite5200b_defconfig and Socket-CAN support enabled for the MSCAN. I can
imaging that there are issues with more recent "-rc" versions due to
Grant's OF platform device generalization. Also the DTS entries entries
for MSCAN in lite5200b.dts seem OK.

Please use the mainline kernel for that board.

You probably already know that it is always best to stay as close to mainline as possible ;) Maybe just the lite-support is slightly bit-rotten? What kind of build-errors do you get with the mainline-kernel?

CAN Subsystem and MPC52xx onboard controller
Hello List Members,
I have tried multiple versions/branches and git repos (torvalds,
benh/{next,master}, denx, pengutronix, ...) to get a 2.6.34 or HEAD
version of that repos that compiles w/o errors when the CAN subsystem
is enabled and the MPC5xxx onboard driver is selected starting with
the lite5200b_defconfig.
Until now I'm out of luck. If other's also have compile problems I can
of course offer to try to dig into the sources.
Q0:
I'm somewhat unsure what repos to use in general to develop using the
2.6 on a Lite5200B compatible board (for the 2.4 we always used the
DENX repos).
Q1:
And which one is "good" or "better" for CAN+MPC52xx if that's
different?
Thanks for any enlightenment
Roman
