In addition to CAN_RAW introduced in Python 3.3, it would be really useful to expose the CAN_BCM protocol. Effectively it hands off as much to the kernel as possible which gives Python programs the ability to send and receive many periodic messages with little additional jitter or overhead. I've attached an early stab at a patch to see if there is interest. I'll be putting more examples of using BCM sockets at https://bitbucket.org/hardbyte/python-socket-examples
