I've submitted the SocketCAN dissector to the WS Bugzilla:

ID: 4299
https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4299

It's not yet complete as described in the todos:

 * add a check for can.h to confgure.in
 * protect packet-socketcan.h with result for can.h check
 * verify build for non-linux platforms
 * tests for error frame behavior
 * display CAN id in source or destination column

I'm not experienced with the internal WS API, thus I would glad, if
someone could take a look at!
Thanks for hints!

Cheers,

Felix
