-# AGL CAN binding architecture
-
-It's meant to generate, from a JSON file describing CAN messages and diagnostic
-message \(OBD2 for now\), a cpp file to integrate with the project.
-
-Once generated binding is built with it and result will be a widget file to
-install on an AGL target system.
-
-![From OpenXC firmware to AGL binding](images/OpenXC_to_AGL.png)
-
-Bringing CAN management into the AGL project is more than allowing decode and
-print CAN messages, lot of tools can do that (Wireshark, CAN-utils, ...).
-
-The goal is to provide a common API and abstraction to the CAN bus then you can
-bring some more high level functionalities to the system.
-
-CAN binding will be separated in two parts:
-
-![CAN low and high level bindings mapping](images/CAN_level_mapping.png)
-
-* High level: Binding from which others applications will connect to.
- It provides valuable access to the CAN bus by aggregate signals or providing
- new signals from several originals. For example, a signal exposing whether or
- not a door is open, no matter which one it is. Also, we can imagine an
- application which supervise if there is no one in the car but moving (1m, 2m ?)
- to alert the owner of an unexpected behavior. The high level binding will sends
- a single event representing that behavior to the application which in turn will
- send a phone message to.
-
-* Low level: Decode messages that transit and send event through **Application
- Framework** to the subscribers with human readable message. It provides some
- basic access to the bus + some basic mathematical, statistical features
- (last_values, min, max, timestamps, averaging) as well as basic filter to get
- discerning signal only (This part are not implemented yet in the low level).
-
-![Communication between CAN bindings and third applications](images/CAN_bindings_communication.png)
-
-Last but not least, the low level binding can be shipped as binary only using
-OpenXC inspired [AGL low level CAN binding Generator](http://github.com/iotbzh/can-config-generator).
-
-# Prerequisites
-
-* An AGL system installed with latest Daring Dab version with latest Application
- framework version >= 0.6.
-* Make sure you built the AGL generator else you will not be able to generate
- custom low-level CAN binding.
-It will produce a _application-generated.cpp_ file to paste in the source,
- _CAN-binder/low-can-binding/binding/_, directory.
-* Make sure you already set up the AGL SDK using the following
- [SDK Quick Setup Guide](http://docs.iot.bzh/docs/getting_started/en/dev/reference/setup-sdk-environment.html).
- Alternatively, please refer to official guides available on [AGL Developer Site](http://docs.automotivelinux.org/docs/devguides/en/dev/#guides).
-
-If you need to have the graphic stack inside your SDK, you have to prepare your
- environment with the **iotbzh**, or **Daring Dab** flavor using _prepare_meta_
- tool. To do so, run the following command in your docker image in the step 4
- in place of `... [ prepare build environment ] ...`:
-
-> **NOTE** These commands assume that proprietary graphic drivers for Renesas
-Porter board are located in _/home/devel/share/proprietary-renesas-rcar_ directory.
-
-```bash
-prepare_meta -f iotbzh -o /xdt -l /home/devel/mirror -p /home/devel/share/proprietary-renesas-rcar/ -t m3ulcb -e wipeconfig -e rm_work -e cleartemp
-/xdt/build/m3ulcb/agl-init-build-env
-```
-
-* (Optionnal) An [USB CAN adapter](http://shop.8devices.com/usb2can) connected to
- connector through the [right cable](http://www.mouser.fr/ProductDetail/EasySync/OBD-M-DB9-F-ES/))
-if you want to connect to a real car through the OBD2 connector.
-
-# Getting started
-
-## CAN config generator usage
-
-### Build requirements
-
-* CMake version 3.3 or later
-* G++, Clang++ or any C++11 compliant compiler.
-
-### Compile
-
-```bash
-source /xdt/sdk/environment-setup-aarch64-agl-linux
-export PATH=$PATH:/xdt/sdk/sysroots/x86_64-aglsdk-linux/usr/bin
-export WD=$(pwd)
-git clone --recursive https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/apps/low-level-can-service -b Renesas_delivery_Q2
-git clone --recursive https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/apps/low-level-can-generator
-cd ${WD}/low-level-can-generator
-mkdir -p build
-cd build
-cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" ..
-make
-```
-
-### Naming convention
-
-We chose a doted naming convention because it's a well know schema.
-
-It separates and organize names into hierarchy. From the left to right, you
-describe your names using the more common ancestor at the left then more you go
-to the right the more it will be accurate.
-
-Let's take an example, here is an example about standard PID name following this
-convention:
-
-```bash
-engine.load
-engine.coolant.temperature
-fuel.pressure
-intake.manifold.pressure
-engine.speed
-vehicle.speed
-intake.air.temperature
-mass.airflow
-throttle.position
-running.time
-EGR.error
-fuel.level
-barometric.pressure
-commanded.throttle.position
-ethanol.fuel.percentage
-accelerator.pedal.position
-hybrid.battery-pack.remaining.life
-engine.oil.temperature
-engine.torque
-```
-
-> **NOTE** It's recommended that you follow this naming convention to named
-> your CAN signals.
->
-> There is only character `*` that is forbidden in names because it's used as
-> wildcard for subscription and unsubscription.
->
-> This described in the below chapter.
-
-### Available decoder
-
-You can use some basic decoder provided by default by the binding which are:
-
-* ***decoder_t::noopDecoder*** : Default decoder if not specified, return raw
- value from signal's bitfield.
-* ***decoder_t::booleanDecoder*** : Coerces a numerical value to a boolean.
-* ***decoder_t::stateDecoder***s : Find and return the corresponding string
- state for a CAN signal's raw integer value.
-
-### Generating JSON from Vector CANoe Database
-
-> **CAUTION** This chapter has not been tested since it haven't necessary
-> automotive tools for that.
-
-If you use CANoe to store your `gold standard` CAN signal definitions, you may
-be able to use the OpenXC `xml_to_json.py` script to make your JSON for you.
-First, export the Canoe .dbc file as XML - you can do this with Vector CANdb++.
-Next, create a JSON file according to the format defined above, but only define:
-
-* CAN messages.
-* Name of CAN signals within messages and their generic_name.
-* Optionnaly name of diagnostic messages and their name.
-
-To install the OpenXC utilities and runs `xml_to_json.py` script:
-
-```bash
-sudo pip install openxc
-cd /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/openxc/generator
-```
-
-Assuming the data exported from Vector is in `signals.xml` and your minimal mapping
-file is `mapping.json`, run the script:
-
-```bash
-python -m openxc.utils ./xml_to_json.py signals.xml mapping.json signals.json
-```
-
-The script scans `mapping.json` to identify the CAN messages and signals that
-you want to use from the XML file. It pulls the neccessary details of the
-messages (bit position, bit size, offset, etc) and outputs the resulting subset
-as JSON into the output file, `signals.json`.
-
-The resulting file together with `mapping.json` will work as input to the code
-generation script.
-
-### Generate your config file
-
-To generate your config file you just have to run the generator using the `-m`
-option to specify your JSON file.
-
-```bash
-./can-config-generator -m ../tests/basic.json -o application-generated.cpp
-```
-
-If you omit the `-o` option, then code is generated on the stdout.
-You also can specify a header and a footer file.
-These files must be valid C++ fragment as long as they will be inserted as is.
-Use the `-h` option to display help.
-
-> **CAUTION:** Each `diagnostic_message` must define the same `bus` as the
-> binding will use only one bus.
-
-### Supported OpenXC items
-
-About now, compliance with OpenXC reference is in progress, can-config-generator
-and CAN\_signaling will implement them soon. `initializers`, `loopers`,
-`commands` and `handlers` nodes are ignored for now.
-
-This generator will follow OpenXC support status of the low level CAN signaling
-binding.
-
-> **NOTE**: The `buses` item will not be supported by this generator because
-> the binding use another way to declare and configure buses. Please refer to
-> the binding's documentation.
-
-## Compile and install the binding
-
-### Build requirements
-
-* Kernel >= 4.8
-* CMake version 3.3 or later
-* G++, Clang++ or any C++11 compliant compiler.
-
-### Compile
-
-Clone the binding repository, copy the generated file and updated the git
-submodules.
-
-Execute the following commands from this repository:
-
-```bash
-cd ${WD}/low-level-can-service
-cp ${WD}/low-level-can-generator/build/application-generated.cpp ../low-can-binding/binding
-```
-
-### Installation
-
-```bash
-cd ${WD}/low-level-can-service
-mkdir build
-cd build
-cmake ..
-make
-make widget
-```
-
-To install it manually, you need to copy the _low-can-service.wgt_ file on your
-target, then from it execute the following commands :
-
-On your host, to copy over the network :
-
-```bash
-scp low-can-service.wgt root@<target_IP>:~
-```
-
-On the target, assuming _**wgt**_ file is in the root home directory:
-
-```bash
-afm-util install low-can-service.wgt
-{ "added": "low-can-service@4.0" }
-```
-
-# Configure the AGL system
-
-## Virtual CAN device
-
-Connected to the target, here is how to load the virtual CAN device driver and
-set up a new vcan device :
-
-```bash
-modprobe vcan
-ip link add vcan0 type vcan
-ip link set vcan0 up
-```
-
-You also can named your linux CAN device like you want and if you need name it
-`can0` :
-
-```bash
-modprobe vcan
-ip link add can0 type vcan
-ip link set can0 up
-```
-
-## CAN device using the USB CAN adapter
-
-Using real connection to CAN bus of your car using the USB CAN adapter
-connected to the OBD2 connector.
-
-Once connected, launch `dmesg` command and search which device to use:
-
-```bash
-dmesg
-[...]
-[ 131.871441] usb 1-3: new full-speed USB device number 4 using ohci-pci
-[ 161.860504] can: controller area network core (rev 20120528 abi 9)
-[ 161.860522] NET: Registered protocol family 29
-[ 177.561620] usb 1-3: USB disconnect, device number 4
-[ 191.061423] usb 1-2: USB disconnect, device number 3
-[ 196.095325] usb 1-2: new full-speed USB device number 5 using ohci-pci
-[ 327.568882] usb 1-2: USB disconnect, device number 5
-[ 428.594177] CAN device driver interface
-[ 1872.551543] usb 1-2: new full-speed USB device number 6 using ohci-pci

-[ 1872.809356] usbcore: registered new interface driver usb_8dev
-```
-
-Here device is named `can0`.
-
-This instruction assuming a speed of 500000kbps for your CAN bus, you can try
-others supported bitrate like 125000, 250000 if 500000 doesn't work:
-
-```bash
-ip link set can0 type can bitrate 500000
-ip link set can0 up
-ip link show can0
- can0: <NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP,ECHO> mtu 16 qdisc pfifo_fast state UNKNOWN qlen 10
- link/can
- can state ERROR-ACTIVE (berr-counter tx 0 rx 0) restart-ms 0
- bitrate 500000 sample-point 0.875
- tq 125 prop-seg 6 phase-seg1 7 phase-seg2 2 sjw 1
- sja1000: tseg1 1..16 tseg2 1..8 sjw 1..4 brp 1..64 brp-inc 1
- clock 16000000
-```
-
-On a Rcar Gen3 board, you'll have your CAN device as `can1` because `can0`
-already exists as an embedded device.
-
-The instructions will be the same:
-
-```bash
-ip link set can1 type can bitrate 500000
-ip link set can1 up
-ip link show can1
- can0: <NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP,ECHO> mtu 16 qdisc pfifo_fast state UNKNOWN qlen 10
- link/can
- can state ERROR-ACTIVE (berr-counter tx 0 rx 0) restart-ms 0
- bitrate 500000 sample-point 0.875
- tq 125 prop-seg 6 phase-seg1 7 phase-seg2 2 sjw 1
- sja1000: tseg1 1..16 tseg2 1..8 sjw 1..4 brp 1..64 brp-inc 1
- clock 16000000
-```
-
-## Rename an existing CAN device
-
-You can rename an existing CAN device using following command and doing so move
-an existing `can0` device to anything else and then use another device as
-`can0`. For a Rcar Gen3 board do the following by example:
-
-```bash
-sudo ip link set can0 down
-sudo ip link set can0 name bsp-can0
-sudo ip link set bsp-can0 up
-```
-
-Then connect your USB CAN device that will be named `can0` by default.
-
-# Configure the binding
-
-The binding reads system configuration file _/etc/dev-mapping.conf_ at start to
-map logical name from signals described in JSON file to linux devices name
-initialized by the system. Edit file _/etc/dev-mappping.conf_ and add mapping
-in section `CANbus-mapping`.
-
-Default binding configuration use a CAN bus named `hs` so you need to map it to
-the real one, here are some examples:
-
-* Using virtual CAN device as described in the previous chapter:
-
-```ini
-[CANbus-mapping]
-hs="vcan0"
-ls="vcan1"
-```
-
-* Using real CAN device, this example assume CAN bus traffic will be on can0.
-
-```ini
-[CANbus-mapping]
-hs="can0"
-ls="can1"
-```
-
-* On a Rcar Gen3 board there is an embedded CAN device so `can0` already
- exists. So you might want to use your USB CAN adapter plugged to the OBD2
- connector, in this case use `can1`:
-
-```ini
-[CANbus-mapping]
-hs="can1"
-```
-
-> **CAUTION VERY IMPORTANT:** Make sure the CAN bus\(es\) you specify in your
-> configuration file match those specified in your generated source file with
-> the `CAN-config-generator`.
-
-# Run it, test it, use it
-
-You can run the binding using **afm-util** tool, here is the classic way to go:
-
-```bash
-afm-util run low-can-service@4.0
-1
-```
-
-You can find instructions to use afm-util tool [here](http://docs.iot.bzh/docs/apis_services/en/dev/reference/af-main/afm-daemons.html#using-afm-util),
-as well as documentation about Application Framework.
-
-But you can't control nor interact with it because you don't know security
-token that **Application Framework** gaves it at launch.
-
-So, to test it, it is better to launch the binding manually. In the following
-example, it will use port **1234** and left empty security token for testing
-purpose:
-
-```bash
-afb-daemon --binding=/var/lib/afm/applications/low-can-service/4.0/lib/afb-low-can.so --rootdir=/var/lib/afm/applications/low-can-service/4.0/ --port=1234 --token=1
-NOTICE: binding [/usr/lib/afb/afb-dbus-binding.so] calling registering function afbBindingV1Register
-NOTICE: binding /usr/lib/afb/afb-dbus-binding.so loaded with API prefix dbus
-NOTICE: binding [/usr/lib/afb/authLogin.so] calling registering function afbBindingV1Register
-NOTICE: binding /usr/lib/afb/authLogin.so loaded with API prefix auth
-NOTICE: binding [/var/lib/afm/applications/low-can-service/4.0/libs//low-can-binding.so] calling registering function afbBindingV1Register
-NOTICE: binding /var/lib/afm/applications/low-can-service/4.0/libs//low-can-binding.so loaded with API prefix low-can
-NOTICE: Waiting port=1234 rootdir=/var/lib/afm/applications/low-can-service/4.0/
-NOTICE: Browser URL= http:/*localhost:1234
-```
-
-On another terminal, connect to the binding using previously installed
-_**AFB Websocket CLI**_ tool:
-
-```bash
-afb-client-demo ws://localhost:1234/api?token=1
-```
-
-You will be on an interactive session where you can communicate directly with
-the binding API.
-
-The binding provides at this moment 2 verbs, _subscribe_ and _unsubscribe_,
-which can take argument by a JSON **event** object.
-
-The argument value is the CAN message **generic\_name** as described in the
-JSON file used to generate cpp file for the binding.
-
-To use the _**AFB Websocket CLI**_ tool, a command line will be like the
-following :
-
-```xml
-<api> <verb> <arguments>
-```
-
-Where:
-
-* API : _**low-can**_.
-* Verb : _**subscribe**_ or _**unsubscribe**_
-* Arguments : _**{ "event": "driver.doors.open" }**_
-
-## Subscription and unsubscription
-
-You can ask to subscribe to chosen CAN event with a call to _subscribe_ API
-verb with the CAN messages name as JSON argument.
-
-> **NOTE:** If no argument is provided, then you'll subscribe to all signals at
-> once.
-
-For example from a websocket session:
-
-```json
-low-can subscribe { "event": "doors.driver.open" }
-ON-REPLY 1:low-can/subscribe: {"jtype":"afb-reply","request":{"status":"success","uuid":"a18fd375-b6fa-4c0e-a1d4-9d3955975ae8"}}
-```
-
-Subscription and unsubscription can take wildcard in their _event_ value.
-
-To receive all doors events :
-
-```json
-low-can subscribe { "event" : "doors*" }
-ON-REPLY 1:low-can/subscribe: {"jtype":"afb-reply","request":{"status":"success","uuid":"511c872e-d7f3-4f3b-89c2-aa9a3e9fbbdb"}}
-```
-
-Then you will receive an event each time a CAN message is decoded for the event
-named _doors.driver.open_
-
-```json
-ON-EVENT low-can/messages.doors.driver.open({"event":"low-can\/messages.doors.driver.open","data":{"name":"messages.doors.driver.open","value":true},"jtype":"afb-event"})
-```
-
-Notice that event shows you that the CAN event is named
-_messages.doors.driver.open_ but you ask for event about _doors.driver.open_.
-
-This is because all CAN messages or diagnostic messages are prefixed by the
-JSON parent node name, **messages** for CAN messages and
-**diagnostic\_messages** for diagnostic messages like OBD2.
-
-This will let you subscribe or unsubcribe to all signals at once, not
-recommended, and better make filter on subscribe operation based upon their
-type. Examples:
-
-```json
-low-can subscribe { "event" : "*speed*" } --> will subscribe to all messages with speed in their name. Search will be make without prefix for it.
-low-can subscribe { "event" : "speed*" } --> will subscribe to all messages begin by speed in their name. Search will be make without prefix for it.
-low-can subscribe { "event" : "messages*speed*" } --> will subscribe to all CAN messages with speed in their name. Search will be on prefixed messages here.
-low-can subscribe { "event" : "messages*speed" } --> will subscribe to all CAN messages ending with speed in their name. Search will be on prefixed messages here.
-low-can subscribe { "event" : "diagnostic*speed*" } --> will subscribe to all diagnostic messages with speed in their name. Search will be on prefixed messages here.
-low-can subscribe { "event" : "diagnostic*speed" } --> will subscribe to all diagnostic messages ending with speed in their name. Search will be on prefixed messages here.
-```
-
-You can stop receiving event from it by unsubscribe the signal the same way you
-did for subscribe
-
-```json
-low-can unsubscribe { "event": "doors.driver.open" }
-ON-REPLY 2:low-can/unsubscribe: {"jtype":"afb-reply","request":{"status":"success"}}
-low-can unsubscribe { "event" : "doors*" }
-ON-REPLY 3:low-can/unsubscribe: {"jtype":"afb-reply","request":{"status":"success"}}
-```
-
-### Filtering capabilities
-
-It is possible to limits received event notifications into minimum and maximum
-boundaries as well as doing frequency thinning. This is possible using the
-argument filter with one or more of the filters available :
-
-* frequency: specify in Hertz the frequency which will be used to getting
- notified of new CAN events for the designated signal. If, during the
- blocked time, further changed CAN messages are received, the last valid one
- will be transferred after the lockout with a RX_CHANGED.
-* min: Minimum value that the decoded value needs to be above to get pushed
- to the subscribed client(s).
-* max: Maximum value that the decoded value needs to be below to get pushed to
- the subscribed client(s)
-
-Order doesn't matter neither the number of filters chosen, you can use one, two
-or all of them at once.
-
-Usage examples :
-
-```json
-low-can subscribe {"event": "messages.engine.speed", "filter": { "frequency": 3, "min": 1250, "max": 3500}}
-low-can subscribe {"event": "messages.engine.load", "filter": { "min": 30, "max": 100}}
-low-can subscribe {"event": "messages.vehicle.speed", "filter": { "frequency": 2}}
-```
-
-## Using CAN utils to monitor CAN activity
-
-You can watch CAN traffic and send custom CAN messages using can-utils
-preinstalled on AGL target.
-
-To watch watch going on a CAN bus use:
-
-```bash
-candump can0
-```
-
-Or for an USB CAN adapter connected to porter board:
-
-```bash
-candump can1
-```
-
-Send a custom message:
-
-```bash
-cansend can0 ID#DDDDAAAATTTTAAAA
-```
-
-You can also replay a previously dumped CAN logfiles. These logfiles can be
-found in _can_samples_ directory under Git repository. Following examples use a
-real trip from an Auris Toyota car.
-
-Trace has been recorded from a CAN device `can0` so you have to map it to the
-correct one you use for your tests.
-
-Replay on a virtual CAN device `vcan0`:
-
-```bash
-canplayer -I trip_test_with_obd2_vehicle_speed_requests vcan0=can0
-```
-
-Replay on a CAN device `can0`:
-
-```bash
-canplayer -I trip_test_with_obd2_vehicle_speed_requests can0
-```
-
-Replay on a CAN device `can1` (porter by example):
-
-```bash
-canplayer -I trip_test_with_obd2_vehicle_speed_requests can1=can0
-```
