Initializing a device

Hi!

When opening a capture device, is it possible to hand off some
initialization data to the libpcap handler?

For example, I have just added a handler for a canusb device. When
opening the device, it would be nice if it was possible to set the
baud rate, etc.
Would it be possible to use the BPF filter for this? (btw, I don't
really understand what BPF filters are, where can I get some
documentation on this?)

is the inject_op operation for sending data through the device?
