PAPR v2.12 defines a new hypercall, H_WATCHDOG.  The hypercall permits
guest control of one or more virtual watchdog timers.  The timers have
millisecond granularity.  The guest is terminated when a timer
expires.

This patch adds a watchdog driver for these timers, "pseries-wdt".

pseries_wdt_probe() currently assumes the existence of only one
platform device and always assigns it watchdogNumber 1.  If we ever
expose more than one timer to userspace we will need to devise a way
to assign a distinct watchdogNumber to each platform device at device
registration time.

This one should go before 4/4 in the series for bisectability.

What is platform_device_register_simple("pseries-wdt",...) going to do
without the driver?

This is a chicken-and-egg problem without an obvious solution.  A
device without a driver is a body without a soul.  A driver without a
device is a ghost without a machine.

... or something like that, don't quote me :)

Absent some very compelling reasoning, I would like to keep the
current order.  It feels logical to me to keep the powerpc/pseries
patches adjacent and prior to the watchdog driver patch.

PSERIES_WDTQ_RESERVED is not needed as there is a comment above.

The *_RESERVED macros are from your draft patch.  I will remove them,
though, we aren't actually using them.


Well, I was thinking of testing the reserved bits to be all zero but the interface may grow so yeah, drop it.


I will trim up the big comment for v2, too.  It's just going to rot
otherwise.  You need to read the PAPR to review the hypercalls,
anyway.

0644 here and below?

I do not want these changing at runtime.  0444 is the right thing.


If the driver is compiled into vmlinux, then I'll have to have stuff in /etc/modprobe.d (or kernel cmdline) and reboot the kernel, annoying for testing/debugging. Not a big deal but I just do not see what 0444 buys compared to 0644 or (mostly used for watchdogs) 0.
