From: Wolfram Sang <wsa+renesas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Give devices which do not have hardware support for pretimeout at least a software version of it. Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang <wsa+renesas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Change since v1: added 'else' block in softdog_ping(), to actually disable the timer when pretimeout value got cleared. Depends on the V4 pretimeout series from Vladimir. Vladimir: Maybe you could add this patch to the next revision of your pretimeout series? Then people have something to play around with right away. drivers/watchdog/softdog.c | 22 +++++++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 21 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/watchdog/softdog.c b/drivers/watchdog/softdog.c index b067edf246dff2..bab31b8df847a5 100644 --- a/drivers/watchdog/softdog.c +++ b/drivers/watchdog/softdog.c @@ -72,10 +72,27 @@ static void softdog_fire(unsigned long data) static struct timer_list softdog_ticktock = TIMER_INITIALIZER(softdog_fire, 0, 0); +static struct watchdog_device softdog_dev; + +static void softdog_pretimeout(unsigned long data) +{ + watchdog_notify_pretimeout(&softdog_dev); +} + +static struct timer_list softdog_preticktock = + TIMER_INITIALIZER(softdog_pretimeout, 0, 0); + static int softdog_ping(struct watchdog_device *w) { if (!mod_timer(&softdog_ticktock, jiffies + (w->timeout * HZ))) __module_get(THIS_MODULE); + + if (w->pretimeout) + mod_timer(&softdog_preticktock, jiffies + + (w->timeout - w->pretimeout) * HZ); + else + del_timer(&softdog_preticktock); + return 0; } @@ -84,12 +101,15 @@ static int softdog_stop(struct watchdog_device *w) if (del_timer(&softdog_ticktock)) module_put(THIS_MODULE); + del_timer(&softdog_preticktock); + return 0; } static struct watchdog_info softdog_info = { .identity = "Software Watchdog", - .options = WDIOF_SETTIMEOUT | WDIOF_KEEPALIVEPING | WDIOF_MAGICCLOSE, + .options = WDIOF_SETTIMEOUT | WDIOF_KEEPALIVEPING | WDIOF_MAGICCLOSE | + WDIOF_PRETIMEOUT, }; static struct watchdog_ops softdog_ops = { -- 2.9.3
