* watchdog: omap_wdt: early_enable module parameterLars Poeschel2015-07-011-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Add a early_enable module parameter to the omap_wdt that starts the watchdog on module insertion. The default value is 0 which does not start the watchdog - which also does not change the behavior if the parameter is not given.

* watchdog: docs: omap_wdt also understands nowayoutLars Poeschel2015-06-221-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | The omap_wdt kernel driver also understands the nowayout module parameter. This updates the watchdog-parameters.txt to reflect this fact.

* watchdog: it87_wdt: Work around non-working CIR interruptsMarc van der Wal2014-03-311-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On some hardware platforms, the it87_wdt watchdog resets the machine despite the watchdog daemon running and writing to /dev/watchdog. This is due to Consumer IR buffer underrun interrupts being used as triggers to reset the timer. On some buggy hardware implementations such as the iEi AFL-12A-N270 single-board computer, this method does not work. However, resetting the timer by writing its original timeout value in its configuration register over and over again suppresses the unwanted reboots. Add a module option (nocir), 0 by default in order not to break existing setups. Setting it to 1 enables the workaround. Fixes bug #42801 <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42801>. Tested primarily on Linux 3.5.7, applies cleanly on Linux 3.13.5.

* watchdog: Add tegra watchdogAndrew Chew2014-03-311-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a driver for the hardware watchdogs in NVIDIA Tegra SoCs (Tegra30 and later). This driver will configure one watchdog timer that will reset the system in the case of a watchdog timeout. This driver binds to the nvidia,tegra30-timer device node and gets its register base from there.

* watchdog: delete mpcore_wdt driverViresh Kumar2013-07-111-8/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Interrupt request doesn't use the right API: The TWD watchdog uses a per-cpu interrupt (usually interrupt #30), and the GIC configuration should flag it as such. With this setup, request_irq() should fail, and the right API is request_percpu_irq(), together with enable_percpu_irq()/disable_percpu_irq(). Nothing ensures the userspace ioctl() will end-up kicking the watchdog on the right CPU. There are no users of this driver since a long time and it makes more sense to get rid of it as nobody is looking to fix it. In case somebody wakes up after this has been removed and needs it, please revert this driver and pick these updates (These were never pushed to mainline): http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/245998 Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> Acked-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be>

Move the limited watchdog driver help from kernel-parameters.txt to Documentation/watchdog/watchdog-parameters.txt and add info to it for all watchdog drivers except the ones that have driver-specific files already. Correct minor comments and MODULE_PARM_DESC() text in 2 places. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be>
