Automotive stack under Linux

Hi all,

Do you know if there is a CAN (automotive network) stack under Linux ?

Do you know if there is a CAN stack emulator / simulator / analyser under 
Linux ?

I need to experiment CAN under Linux.

TIA & BR,

    Alain.

http://www.embeddedarm.com has a CAN bus card for their embedded boxes. 
  I don't know if they have a driver.

Alain,
I suggest you to use SocketCAN, the newest (and the best) CAN technology
for linux
http://socketcan.berlios.de/

If you are referring to low level CANbus, all you need is a device
driver. For instance the can4linux driver supports a few card types
and uses a standard open/read/write/select interface.

The only high level standard automotive protocols I can think of are
the J1939 engine control protocol and some GPS navigation protocols
which are built on CAN frames.

CANbus is also used as the lower level for industrial protocols such
as CanOpen and DeviceNet.

have a look at these:

Open Components for Embedded Real-time Applications

rtcan - realtime CAN on linux
      http://sourceforge.net/projects/rtcan/
