Paolo Bonzini 1fccb73011 iTCO_wdt: all versions count down twice
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.

Guenter Roeck bb292ac1c6 watchdog: Introduce watchdog_stop_on_unregister helper
Many watchdog drivers explicitly stop the watchdog when unregistering it.
While it is unclear if this is actually needed (the whatdog should not be
running at that time if it can be stopped), introduce a helper to
explicitly stop the watchdog in the watchdog core when unregistering it.
This helps reducing driver code size while retaining functionality.

Vladimir Zapolskiy ff84136cb6 watchdog: add watchdog pretimeout governor framework
The change adds a simple watchdog pretimeout framework infrastructure,
its purpose is to allow users to select a desired handling of watchdog
pretimeout events, which may be generated by some watchdog devices.

A user selects a default watchdog pretimeout governor during
compilation stage.

Watchdogs with WDIOF_PRETIMEOUT capability now have one more device
attribute in sysfs, pretimeout_governor attribute is intended to display
the selected watchdog pretimeout governor.

The framework has no impact at runtime on watchdog devices with no
WDIOF_PRETIMEOUT capability set.

Guenter Roeck 90b826f17a watchdog: Implement status function in watchdog core
Up to now, the watchdog status function called a driver function,
which was supposed to return the watchdog status. All but one
driver using the watchdog core did not implement this function,
and the driver implementing it did not implement it correctly
(the function is supposed to return WDIOF_ flags). At the same time,
at least some of the status information can be provided by the watchdog
core.

Provide the available status bits directly from the watchdog driver core.
Call the driver status function if it exists to get the boot status, but
always provide WDIOF_MAGICCLOSE and WDIOF_KEEPALIVEPING internally.
This patch makes the 'status' sysfs attribute always available.
This attribute is now displayed as hex number with 0x prepended to be
easier to decode.

This can as well be handled by the infrastructure, so make the set_timeout

callback is not available, update the timeout variable in the

Guenter Roeck faa584757b watchdog: Add support for creating driver specific sysfs attributes
The Zodiac watchdog driver attaches additional sysfs attributes to the
watchdog device. This has a number of problems: The watchdog device
lifetime differs from the driver lifetime, and the device structure
should therefore not be accessed from drivers. Also, creating sysfs
attributes after driver registration results in a potential race condition
if user space expects the attributes to exist but they don't exist yet.

Add support for creating driver specific sysfs attributes to the watchdog
core to solve the problems.

Guenter Roeck b4ffb19098 watchdog: Separate and maintain variables based on variable lifetime
All variables required by the watchdog core to manage a watchdog are
currently stored in struct watchdog_device. The lifetime of those
variables is determined by the watchdog driver. However, the lifetime
of variables used by the watchdog core differs from the lifetime of
struct watchdog_device. To remedy this situation, watchdog drivers
can implement ref and unref callbacks, to be used by the watchdog
core to lock struct watchdog_device in memory.

While this solves the immediate problem, it depends on watchdog drivers
to actually implement the ref/unref callbacks. This is error prone,
often not implemented in the first place, or not implemented correctly.

To solve the problem without requiring driver support, split the variables
in struct watchdog_device into two data structures - one for variables
associated with the watchdog driver, one for variables associated with
the watchdog core. With this approach, the watchdog core can keep track
of its variable lifetime and no longer depends on ref/unref callbacks
in the driver. As a side effect, some of the variables originally in
struct watchdog_driver are now private to the watchdog core and no longer
visible in watchdog drivers.

As a side effect of the changes made, an ioctl will now always fail
with -ENODEV after a watchdog device was unregistered with the character
device still open. Previously, it would only fail with -ENODEV in some
situations. Also, ioctl operations are now atomic from driver perspective.
With this change, it is now guaranteed that the driver will not unregister
a watchdog between a timeout change and the subsequent ping.

The 'ref' and 'unref' callbacks in struct watchdog_driver are no longer
used and marked as deprecated.

Damien Riegel e131319669 watchdog: core: add reboot notifier support
Many watchdog drivers register a reboot notifier in order to stop the
watchdog on system reboot. Thus we can factorize this code in the
watchdog core.

For that purpose, a new notifier block is added in watchdog_device for
internal use only, as well as a new watchdog_stop_on_reboot helper
function.

If this helper is called, watchdog core registers the related notifier
block and will stop the watchdog when SYS_HALT or SYS_DOWN is received.

Since this operation can be critical on some platforms, abort the device
registration if the reboot notifier registration fails.

Many watchdog drivers implement the same code to register a restart
handler. This patch provides a generic way to set such a function.

The patch adds a new restart watchdog operation. If a restart priority
greater than 0 is needed, the driver can call
watchdog_set_restart_priority to set it.

The watchdog test program is much more useful if it can configure the
timeout value and ping rate.  This will allow you to test actual timeouts.

Adds the -t parameter to set the timeout value (in seconds), and -p to set
the ping rate (number of seconds between pings).

Marc van der Wal 0bcd0b6a47 watchdog: it87_wdt: Work around non-working CIR interrupts
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.
