CAN BUS support orange pi zero

The overlay does not load because the device tree path does not contain the necessary path for the OPi3 and OPLite2

Try it without the "clocks" subpath :

target-path = "/";

Thank for replying. 

That was exactly the adjustment I made that successfully loaded the overlay.
This modification ensures that can0 is created with some duplicate error.

Thanks for the tip @martinayotte! This also helped me to deploy successfully the mcp25xxfd CAN_FD driver on the oPi R1.

 

If anyone else decides to move from CAN "classic" to CAN FD, look at:

Hi to all. 

I have Orange Pi PC+ and trying to use MCP2515. It worked well before, but some colleagues use my Orange and now I have "cannot find device can0" error

I found that there is no sun8i-h3-spi0-mcp2515.dtbo file in overlay folders. I tried to compile this file  from https://github.com/armbian/sunxi-DT-overlays but I am receiving this error

 

sudo armbian-add-overlay spi-mcp251x.dts

Sadly I am noob in this, what does it mean?
