CanKit.Adapter.SocketCAN

SocketCAN adapter for CanKit. Provides a unified .NET API to Linux SocketCAN interfaces.

Requirements

  • Linux with SocketCAN enabled (can, vcan, vxcan).
  • Ensure libsocketcan/netlink is installed.

简体中文

  • 仅支持 Linux（SocketCAN）。
  • 需安装 libsocketcan。

Install

# Core + SocketCAN adapter
dotnet add package CanKit.Core
dotnet add package CanKit.Adapter.SocketCAN

Endpoint Formats

  • socketcan://can0
  • socketcan://vcan0
  • socketcan://can0#netlink (enable netlink-based configuration)
  • socketcan://can0?rcvbuf=1048576 (set receive buffer)

Quick Start

using CanKit.Core;
using CanKit.Core.Definitions;

// Open can0, set 500 kbps
using var bus = CanBus.Open("socketcan://can0", cfg => cfg.Baud(500_000));

var tx = new CanClassicFrame(0x123, new byte[] { 1, 2, 3 });
bus.Transmit(new[]tx);

foreach (var rx in bus.Receive(1, 100))
{
    var f = rx.CanFrame;
    Console.WriteLine($"RX 0x{f.ID:X} dlc={f.Dlc}");
}

Discover Endpoints

using CanKit.Core.Endpoints;

foreach (var ep in BusEndpointEntry.Enumerate("socketcan"))
{
    Console.WriteLine($"{ep.Title}: {ep.Endpoint}");
}

Notes

  • When using #netlink, the adapter may attempt to set bitrate via libsocketcan; otherwise, ensure the interface is pre-configured (e.g., ip link set can0 up type can bitrate 500000).

0.4.0

**Added**

- **New adapters:** `Vector` and `ControlCAN` adapters are now supported.
- **ZLG safety:** Automatic detection of the hardware **auto-send/throughput limit** to prevent oversend scenarios.

**Improved**

- **CanBus async reads:** Reworked the background async read task for better efficiency and stability.
- **Lower overhead:** Reduced value-copy costs for several method parameters to cut unnecessary allocations and CPU usage.

**Fixed**

- **Race on start/stop:** Eliminated a race condition when **starting** and **stopping** the background read task during initialization/shutdown.

*No breaking API changes are expected in this release.*
