The reason I haven't shared it is that it still doesn't solve your problem of
displaying CANFD packets because Wireshark can't tell what they are.

I'm hoping someone can jump in and provide more details as this is not my area
of expertise.  Some links that should be useful:

https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4299 (Original socketCAN
patch, does some explaining about libpcap)

https://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/NetworkMedia (CAN should probably be
listed here too, but provided more to dispel the notion that Wireshark uses
sockets.)
