From: Fu Wei <fu.wei@xxxxxxxxxx>
Also update Documentation/watchdog/watchdog-kernel-api.txt to
introduce:
(1)the new elements in the watchdog_device and watchdog_ops struct;
(2)the new API "watchdog_init_timeouts".
Reasons:
(1)kernel already has two watchdog drivers are using "pretimeout":
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_watchdog.c
drivers/watchdog/kempld_wdt.c(but the definition is different)
(2)some other dirvers are going to use this: ARM SBSA Generic Watchdog
drivers

+The watchdog_init_timeouts function allows you to initialize the pretimeout and

+timeout, the second one is for pretimeout) from the device tree(if the module

+Normally, the pretimeout value will affect the limitation of timeout, and it
+is also hardware related. So you can write a function in your driver to update
+the limitation of timeout, according to the pretimeout value. Then pass the
+function pointer by the update_limits parameter. If you driver doesn't
+need this adjustment, just pass NULL to the update_limits parameter.
Is there a reason to believe that the update_limits function is necessary and
can not be handled by the set_pretimeout and set_timeout driver functions,
or possibly by the driver itself after calling watchdog_init_timeouts() ?
+Most of watchdog timers have not pretimeout as the warning signal. They just

support pretimeout to use the new API function ?

+Because of the introduction of pretimeout and watchdog_init_timeouts, this

The last sentence is irrelevant; how watchdog_init_timeout() is implemented
is an implementation detail, not part of the API.
