2014-03-31watchdog: fix checkpatch warnings and errorJingoo Han
Fix the following checkpatch warnings and error: WARNING: quoted string split across lines WARNING: braces {} are not necessary for single statement blocks WARNING: __initdata should be placed after ibmasr_id_table[] WARNING: please, no space before tabs ERROR: do not initialise statics to 0 or NULL Signed-off-by: Jingoo Han <jg1.han@samsung.com> Reviewed-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be>
2013-12-10watchdog: Drop unnecessary include of miscdevice.hGuenter Roeck
After commit 487722cf2 (watchdog: Get rid of MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV statements) the affected drivers no longer need to include miscdevice.h. Only exception is rt2880_wdt.c which never needed it.

2013-11-17watchdog: Get rid of MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV statementsJean Delvare
I just can't find any value in MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(WATCHDOG_MINOR) and MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(TEMP_MINOR) statements. Either the device is enumerated and the driver already has a module alias (e.g. PCI, USB etc.) that will get the right driver loaded automatically. Or the device is not enumerated and loading its driver will lead to more or less intrusive hardware poking. Such hardware poking should be limited to a bare minimum, so the user should really decide which drivers should be tried and in what order. Trying them all in arbitrary order can't do any good. On top of that, loading that many drivers at once bloats the kernel log. Also many drivers will stay loaded afterward, bloating the output of "lsmod" and wasting memory. Some modules (cs5535_mfgpt which gets loaded as a dependency) can't even be unloaded! If defining char-major-10-130 is needed then it should happen in user-space.

2013-07-11watchdog: softdog: remove replaceable ping operationKim, Milo
In watchdog_ping(), 'start' is called automatically when 'ping' function call is not configured. Softdog driver has same handling in both cases - start and ping, so 'ping' OPS can be removed. Signed-off-by: Milo(Woogyom) Kim <milo.kim@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be>

2011-03-29watchdog: softdog.c: enhancement to optionally invoke panic instead of ↵Anithra P Janakiraman
reboot on timer expiry This is needed for determining the reason for failure when a softdog timeout occurs. We use softdog to watch for critical application failures and at the minimum a snapshot of the system would help to determine the cause. In such a scenario the application could fail but there isn't a softlockup as such, hence the detect softlockup feature does not help. The patch adds a module parameter soft_panic which when set to 1 causes softdog to invoke panic instead of reboot when the softdog timer expires. By invoking panic we execute kdump if it is configured and the vmcore generated by kdump should provide atleast a minimal idea of the reason for failure.

2008-08-06[WATCHDOG] Coding style - Indentation - part 2Wim Van Sebroeck
This brings the watchdog drivers into line with coding style. This patch takes cares of the indentation as described in chapter 1. Main changes: * Re-structure the ioctl switch call for all drivers as follows: switch (cmd) { case WDIOC_GETSUPPORT: case WDIOC_GETSTATUS: case WDIOC_GETBOOTSTATUS: case WDIOC_GETTEMP: case WDIOC_SETOPTIONS: case WDIOC_KEEPALIVE: case WDIOC_SETTIMEOUT: case WDIOC_GETTIMEOUT: case WDIOC_GETTIMELEFT: default: } This to make the migration from the drivers to the uniform watchdog device driver easier in the future.
