1467+ Transmitter Delay Compensation
1468+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1469+
1470+ At high bit rates, the propagation delay from the TX pin to the RX pin of
1471+ the transceiver might become greater than the actual bit time causing
1472+ measurement errors: the RX pin would still be measuring the previous bit.
1473+
1474+ The Transmitter Delay Compensation (thereafter, TDC) resolves this problem
1475+ by introducing a Secondary Sample Point (SSP) equal to the distance, in
1476+ minimum time quantum, from the start of the bit time on the TX pin to the
1477+ actual measurement on the RX pin. The SSP is calculated as the sum of two
1478+ configurable values: the TDC Value (TDCV) and the TDC offset (TDCO).
1479+
1480+ TDC, if supported by the device, can be configured together with CAN-FD
1481+ using the ip tool's "tdc-mode" argument as follow:
1482+
1483+ **omitted **
1484+ When no "tdc-mode" option is provided, the kernel will automatically
1485+ decide whether TDC should be turned on, in which case it will
1486+ calculate a default TDCO and use the TDCV as measured by the
1487+ device. This is the recommended method to use TDC.
1488+
1489+ **"tdc-mode off" **
1490+ TDC is explicitly disabled.
1491+
1492+ **"tdc-mode auto" **
1493+ The user must provide the "tdco" argument. The TDCV will be
1494+ automatically calculated by the device. This option is only
1495+ available if the device supports the TDC-AUTO CAN controller mode.
1496+
1497+ **"tdc-mode manual" **
1498+ The user must provide both the "tdco" and "tdcv" arguments. This
1499+ option is only available if the device supports the TDC-MANUAL CAN
1500+ controller mode.
1501+
1502+ Note that some devices may offer an additional parameter: "tdcf" (TDC Filter
1503+ window). If supported by your device, this can be added as an optional
1504+ argument to either "tdc-mode auto" or "tdc-mode manual".
