+ *
+ *	This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or

+ *
+ *	(C) Copyright 2003-2006  Sven Anders <anders@anduras.de>
+ *
+ *  History:
+ *	2003 - Created version 1.0 for Linux 2.4.x.
+ *	2006 - Ported to Linux 2.6, added nowayout and MAGICCLOSE
+ *             features. Released version 1.1
+ *
+ *  Theory of operation:
+ *
+ *      A Watchdog Timer (WDT) is a hardware circuit that can
+ *      reset the computer system in case of a software fault.
+ *      You probably knew that already.
+ *
+ *      Usually a userspace daemon will notify the kernel WDT driver
+ *      via the /dev/watchdog special device file that userspace is
+ *      still alive, at regular intervals.  When such a notification
+ *      occurs, the driver will usually tell the hardware watchdog
+ *      that everything is in order, and that the watchdog should wait
+ *      for yet another little while to reset the system.
+ *      If userspace fails (RAM error, kernel bug, whatever), the
+ *      notifications cease to occur, and the hardware watchdog will
+ *      reset the system (causing a reboot) after the timeout occurs.
+ *
+ * Create device with:
+ *  mknod /dev/watchdog c 10 130
+ *
+ * For an example userspace keep-alive daemon, see:
+ *   Documentation/watchdog/watchdog.txt
