If you are using the CAN device and the c_can driver, then implementing the kernel mod and re-building/re-installing would seem to be your only option. If you need to use CAN and can use a USB-to-CAN adapter, or some other serial-to-CAN adapter, then maybe you could get around this problem.

Hello again... Never mind any of the stuff I previously mentioned regarding changing of the kernel config parameters. The problem is rooted in my original comment about the c_can driver. There is a patch that exists that solves this problem. Unfortunately, it was inserted into the mainline

Those config parameters are used for the kernel build. They are part of a huge collection of compiler flags used for controlling how the kernel is built. In your initial post, I noticed that you mentioned you were using a custom kernel; therefore, I assumed that you understood how to modify

The only reason I know we're using a custom kernel is because our former Linux guy told me so. Never recompiled a kernel before but I have a cursory grasp of what's involved. Former coworker's linux laptop has a folder named Robert C Nelson that contains what seems to be the custom kernel mod

My kernel is no longer crashing. Unfortunately, I do not have the exact work-around - as I was messing around with a lot of stuff to try to get this to work. The one thing consistent in all this is the backtrace (/var/log/kern.log) in that the routine c_can_get_berr_counter is doing something

Note that there are plenty of other things in my kernel config. I only showed the differences between the original (when I would get kernel panic) and the modified (no kernel panic). On Wednesday, November 26, 2014 10:07:00 AM UTC-5, beagler001 wrote: My kernel is no longer crashing.

No solution here yet, but I have found some very relevant discussions out there. Something must have changed with the kernel scheduler that requires drivers (CAN in our case) to be updated. I copied the BeagleBone kernel support guru to this post (Robert Nelson). Perhaps he is already aware of

Hello Me Nee, Yes. I am having the same problem. How are you doing on this? Have you figured anything out? I too am using the CAN interface on the BeagleBone Black device. Let me know, and I can update you with my findings if you still need help. On Thursday, November 13, 2014 12:41:48 PM

Haven't figured a software way around this yet. For now we're avoiding the direct CAN interface to the Beaglebone and instead using our external custom hardware to relay serial CAN messages to the Beaglebone. We don't have issues with this format. That said, if you have a fix I'd love to
