Hi, I am looking for the best way to know if a watchdog has been kicked and active. I can see a way is to read timeout(WDIOC_GETTIMEOUT) and timeleft( WDIOC_GETTIMELEFT). If they do not match, it means that wdt is active. But what if we tried to read timeleft just in time when watchdog daemon/or some other application had kicked it. May be we read timeleft twice at the interval of 1 sec. Please let me know if there is any other alternative which could be a better way to know if watchdog is active? Or may be it would be good to implement an ioctl WDIOC_ACTIVE?
