Ok.

We currently have different occurrences of the 15765-2 term:
$ git grep "15765-2"
include/uapi/linux/can.h:#define CAN_ISOTP 6 /* ISO 15765-2
Transport Protocol */
include/uapi/linux/can/isotp.h: * Definitions for isotp CAN sockets (ISO
15765-2:2016)
net/can/Kconfig: tristate "ISO 15765-2:2016 CAN transport protocol"
net/can/Kconfig: ISO 15765-2:2016 for 'classic' CAN and CAN FD
frame types.
net/can/isotp.c:/* isotp.c - ISO 15765-2 CAN transport protocol for
protocol family CAN
net/can/isotp.c:MODULE_DESCRIPTION("PF_CAN isotp 15765-2:2016 protocol");
net/can/isotp.c:/* ISO 15765-2:2016 supports more than 4095 byte per ISO
PDU as the FF_DL can
net/can/isotp.c:/* maximum PDU size before ISO 15765-2:2016 extension
was 4095 */
I've sent a patch to remove the ISO 15675-2 specification version/date
where possible:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-can/20240420194746.4885-1-socketcan@hartkopp.net/T/#u
This also makes clear where the ISO 15765-2:2016 remains helpful IMHO.
I would be fine to remove the version/date in the documentation from
Francesco where possible too.
Best regards,
Oliver
