I Cannot find ./elmcan.ko

Sorry, I don't know what you are doing, what you are trying to do, and what environment you're doing that in. There is no question, no problem, no issue description in your text.

Please make sure you have learned about building and loading Linux kernel modules, that you are using the latest code, and that you have read ALL documentation for can327 (formerly elmcan) very carefully. I believe this will enable you to analyse and solve whatever issue you're having.

If you're using a Linux kernel v6.0 or newer, then can327 is a part of it, and popular distributions such as Debian and Ubuntu are shipping the module, pre-built and ready to use. There is no need to build it yourself on these systems.

That aside, when building this module from source, the resulting kernel module would be can327.ko - the elmcan name is gone in all places except for the repository's name. Seeing the "elmcan" name suggests that you're using some outdated code and/or instructions. Please try the most recent code first before filing a ticket.

Good luck and have fun with CAN!

Correction: Seems like can327 is not universally shipped in distributions yet. At least Debian 12 does not include it yet :(
