CAN issue on C6 - Githubissues

Hi. I am trying to get CAN working on a C6 devkitC-1 but not getting anywhere. Both sends and receives hang and then return ESP_ERR_TIMEOUT. It works on a C3 devkit I have but I would like to use the C6 if possible.

What I have done is:

Generated a crate using cargo generate esp-rs/esp-idf-template cargo selected C6 from the list.

Added the following code to main:


use esp_idf_hal::prelude::*;
use esp_idf_hal::can;
use log::*;

fn main() { esp_idf_sys::link_patches(); esp_idf_svc::log::EspLogger::initialize_default();

let peripherals = Peripherals::take().unwrap();
let pins = peripherals.pins;

let filter = can::config::Filter::standard_allow_all();
let timing = can::config::Timing::B250K;
let config = can::config::Config::new().filter(filter).timing(timing);

let mut can = can::CanDriver::new(peripherals.can, pins.gpio4, pins.gpio5, &config).unwrap();

can.start().unwrap();

loop {
    let r = can.receive(1000);
    if let Ok(rx_frame) = &r {
        info!("echoing {}", rx_frame);
        if let Err(e) = can.transmit(&rx_frame, 10) {
            info!("tx error: {}", e);
        }
    } else if let Err(e) = &r {
        info!("rx error {:}", e);
    }
}

}


- Verified that the above code and connections to tranceiver and other test node work using a C3-DevkitC-02 (I simply replace the devkit on my breadboard, leaving all other connections). No issues there, the program echoes the packages as expected.
- I have tried to set up the CAN driver with `config::Mode::NoAck` and sent frames with `can::Flags::SelfReception`. Also works.

I realize that the issue here is a bit fuzzy and could very well be something else related to my CAN bus setup but I am asking anyway in case I am missing something simple. Could there be some configuration step that I have missed for the C6? With the C3 it was plug and play. Can my transceiver (SN65HVD251P) be incompatible with the C6? I noticed that the C6 has two CAN drivers but in my code I don't actively select one of them. Perhaps I need to? Grateful for any pointers.

**[EDIT]** I just did a quick test with [esp-hal](https://github.com/esp-rs/esp-hal) (i.e not idf) and using that I do receive and can send CAN frames with the C6. So I guess I am missing something on the software side, or there is a bug in the bindings. (This example works: https://github.com/esp-rs/esp-hal/blob/main/examples/src/bin/embassy_twai.rs, modified to not use `no_tranceiver` and my GPIOs).
