2019-06-14docs: watchdog: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rstMauro Carvalho Chehab1-410/+0
Convert those documents and prepare them to be part of the kernel API book, as most of the stuff there are related to the Kernel interfaces. Still, in the future, it would make sense to split the docs, as some of the stuff is clearly focused on sysadmin tasks. The conversion is actually: - add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs; - fix tables markups; - add some lists markups; - mark literal blocks; - adjust title markups. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

2017-05-19iTCO_wdt: all versions count down twicePaolo Bonzini1-1/+1
The ICH9 is listed as having TCO v2, and indeed the behavior in the datasheet corresponds to v2 (for example the NO_REBOOT flag is accessible via the 16KiB-aligned Root Complex Base Address). However, the TCO counts twice just like in v1; the documentation of the SECOND_TO_STS bit says: "ICH9 sets this bit to 1 to indicate that the TIMEOUT bit had been (or is currently) set and a second timeout occurred before the TCO_RLD register was written. If this bit is set and the NO_REBOOT config bit is 0, then the ICH9 will reboot the system after the second timeout. The same can be found in the BayTrail (Atom E3800) datasheet, and even HOWTOs around the Internet say that it will reboot after _twice_ the specified heartbeat. I did not find the Apollo Lake datasheet, but because v4/v5 has a SECOND_TO_STS bit just like the previous version I'm enabling this for Apollo Lake as well.

2014-03-31watchdog: it87_wdt: Work around non-working CIR interruptsMarc van der Wal1-0/+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.

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.

2013-07-11watchdog: delete mpcore_wdt driverViresh Kumar1-8/+0
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>
