Not public, no, the problem is that you'd need a CAN adapter as well.

The test is simple, sending CAN frames with an increasing counter and a
random length payload:

[ tx thread rx thread ]
| ^
v |
[ interface 0 ] ---- cable ----> [ interface 1 ]

I'll see if I can come up with a UDP testcase that works with normal
ethernet interfaces.

Here you go:

root@rk3399-q7:~# tc -s qdisc show dev can0
qdisc pfifo_fast 0: root refcnt 2 bands 3 priomap 1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1
1 1 1 1 1
Sent 0 bytes 0 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
backlog 0b 0p requeues 0

Will do.

Thanks,
