8 If you say Y here (and to one of the following options) and create a
9 character special file /dev/watchdog with major number 10 and minor
10 number 130 using mknod ("man mknod"), you will get a watchdog, i.e.:
11 subsequently opening the file and then failing to write to it for
12 longer than 1 minute will result in rebooting the machine. This
13 could be useful for a networked machine that needs to come back

Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -070015 implementation entirely in software (which can sometimes fail to
16 reboot the machine) and a driver for hardware watchdog boards, which
17 are more robust and can also keep track of the temperature inside

Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -070020
21 The watchdog is usually used together with the watchdog daemon
22 which is available from
23 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/daemons/watchdog/>. This daemon can
24 also monitor NFS connections and can reboot the machine when the process
25 table is full.

34 The default watchdog behaviour (which you get if you say N here) is
35 to stop the timer if the process managing it closes the file
36 /dev/watchdog. It's always remotely possible that this process might
37 get killed. If you say Y here, the watchdog cannot be stopped once
38 it has been started.

707 This is the driver for the built-in watchdog timer on the EPX-C3
708 Single-board computer made by Winsystems, Inc.
709
710 *Note*: This hardware watchdog is not probeable and thus there
711 is no way to know if writing to its IO address will corrupt
712 your system or have any real effect. The only way to be sure
713 that this driver does what you want is to make sure you
Matt LaPlante2621e2a2006-07-05 01:20:51 +0000714 are running it on an EPX-C3 from Winsystems with the watchdog
Calin A. Culianueed65652006-01-14 13:20:46 -0800715 timer at IO address 0x1ee and 0x1ef. It will write to both those
716 IO ports. Basically, the assumption is made that if you compile
717 this driver into your kernel and/or load it as a module, that you
718 know what you are doing and that you are in fact running on an
719 EPX-C3 board!
720
721 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
722 module will be called sbc_epx_c3.
