Great.

The SJA1000 reports:

---- Error-active -> error-warning -> error-passive
---- cable disconnected
-bash-3.2# ./candump -t d any,0:0,#FFFFFFFF

 (0.000000)  can0  20000004  [8] 00 08 00 00 00 00 60 00   ERROR-WARNING
 (0.002588)  can0  20000004  [8] 00 20 00 00 00 00 80 00   ERROR-PASSIVE

I wonder why you get data[1]=28 immediately. Also it's nice to have the
txerr and rxerr in data[6..7].

Also here, you should see:

---- Error-active -> error-warning -> error-passive -> bus-off

-bash-3.2# ./candump -t d any,0:0,#FFFFFFFF
 (0.000000)  can0  20000004  [8] 00 08 00 00 00 00 88 00   ERROR-WARNING
 (0.001362)  can0  20000004  [8] 00 20 00 00 00 00 88 00   ERROR-PASSIVE
 (0.001560)  can0  20000044  [8] 00 00 00 00 00 00 7F 00   BUS-OFF

As the log confirms.

Not yet. Also the output with "berr-reporting on" should be checked. And
the output when you recover from bus-off manually (using "ip link set
type can restart")

Thanks,

Wolfgang.
