[PATCH 6.6 540/603] watchdog: ixp4xx: Make sure restart always works

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



6.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit b4075ecfe348a44209534c75ad72392c63a489a6 ]

The IXP4xx watchdog in early "A0" silicon is unreliable and
cannot be registered, however for some systems such as the
USRobotics USR8200 the watchdog is the only restart option,
so implement a "dummy" watchdog that can only support restart
in this case.
