* [PATCH] ppc64: add a watchdog driver for rtasUtz Bacher2005-06-231-0/+696
Add a watchdog using the RTAS OS surveillance service. This is provided as a simpler alternative to rtasd. The added value is that it works with standard watchdog client programs and can therefore also do user space monitoring. On BPA, rtasd is not really useful because the hardware does not have much to report with event-scan. The driver should also work on other platforms that support the OS surveillance rtas calls.
