    55The intention to provide generic CAN subsystem for RTEMS was initial idea for Jin Yang GSoC 2013 project. But lack
    6 of common environment for code and RTEMS testing lead to goal change to provide environment which provides
    7 complete emulated environment for testing and RTEMS GSoC slot has been donated to work on CAN hardware
    8 emulation on QEMU.

    10 The PCI addon card hardware has been selected as the first CAN interface to implement because
     6of common environment for code and RTEMS testing lead to of GSoC goal change. The new goal focused
     7on preparation of complete emulated environment for CAN drivers testing and RTEMS GSoC slot has been
     8in fact donated to work on CAN hardware emulation implementation for QEMU project.

     10The PCI addon card hardware has been selected as the first CAN interface to be implement because
    1111such device can be easily connected to systems with different CPU architectures (x86, PowerPC, ARM, etc.).
    12 We decided to focus on SJA1000 chip, because it is spread standalone controller variant. As for the
    13 concrete card we have selected Kvaser PCI which we (mentors from [http://www.cvut.cz/ Czech Technical University] [http://dce.fel.cvut.cz/en/department/organizational-structure/industrial-informatics-group IIG group]) because we have more these cards in

    1414our project and can compare emulated HW behavior with real hardware. We selected interfacing
