Dear Subrata,

attached you'll find a major update for the LTP tests dealing with CAN filters
and the CAN frame flow down to the CAN netdevice and vice versa.

The patch removes all the obsolete stuff from the source code directory you
originally picked the tests from. I added two new tools that also reside on
the referenced SVN:

tst-filter: New filter test tool in *one* programm (easy to use & handle)
tst-rcv-own-msgs: Checks the CAN frame flow inside the networking stack

Additionally the virtual CAN driver needs to be loaded with a special
commandline option to perform the CAN frame flow test correctly.

The tests & the scripts are much clearer to me now. If it meets your
requirements consider to apply this patch to the LTP repository.

Best regards,
Oliver
