Hello Mario,
thanks for your patch.

This patch adds initial support for network namespaces. The changes only
enable support in the CAN raw, proc and af_can code. GW and BCM still
have their checks that ensure that they are used only from the main
namespace.
The patch boils down to moving the global structures, i.e. the global
filter list and their /proc stats, into a per-namespace structure and passing
around the corresponding "struct net" in a lot of different places.

Although it does not apply on the latest kernel due to this patch:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=f1712c73714088a7252d276a57126d56c7d37e64
Please rebase your patch to the latest kernel tree and post it again.
Additionally you should post CAN related stuff to the linux-can ML (see
CC) and the CAN maintainers found in the MAINTAINERS file. In this case
cross posting to netdev ML is fine as namespaces are very netdev related.
Do you have an idea how to go with namespace aware virtual CAN
interfaces to link the namespaces?
Regards,
Oliver
