Tools based on libpcap (such as tcpdump) expect the SIOCSHWTSTAMP ioctl call to be supported. This is also specified in the kernel doc [1]. The purpose of this ioctl is to toggle the hardware timestamps. Currently, CAN devices which support hardware timestamping have those always activated. can_eth_ioctl_hwts() is a dumb function that will always succeed when requested to set tx_type to HWTSTAMP_TX_ON or rx_filter to HWTSTAMP_FILTER_ALL.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
