Hi, Thanks for the patch! Since the rest of the watchdog related sch56xx-common patches, which introduce this problem in the first place, are going into 3.5 through the watchdog tree, this patch should probably go in through that tree too -> forwarding this to linux-watchdog. Also: Acked-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx> Regards, Hans -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [lm-sensors] [patch] watchdog: sch56xx-common: set correct bits in register() Date: Thu, 24 May 2012 18:58:02 +0300 From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> To: Jean Delvare <khali@xxxxxxxxxxxx> CC: lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, kernel-janitors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx WDOG_NO_WAY_OUT (3) and WDOG_ACTIVE (0) are the bit numbers, not a mask. So "data->wddev.status |= WDOG_ACTIVE;" was intended to set bit zero but it is a no-op.
