Well, only prop_seg+phase_seg=tseg1 is relevant and the pch_can driver sets the allowed minimum "tseg1_min1" currently to 1: static struct can_bittiming_const pch_can_bittiming_const = { .name = KBUILD_MODNAME, .tseg1_min = 1, .tseg1_max = 16, .tseg2_min = 1, .tseg2_max = 8, .sjw_max = 4, .brp_min = 1, .brp_max = 1024, /* 6bit + extended 4bit */ .brp_inc = 1, }; > seg1/seg2/sjw/prop_seg must be more than 1 ? Then "tseg1_min" should be set to *2*. > Also I can see the following kernel error log. > bitrate error 0.7% A clock frequency of 50 MHz is sub-optimal for CAN and some bit-rates cannot be reproduced properly.
