* [WATCHDOG] Semi-typical watchdog bug re early misc_register()Alexey Dobriyan2007-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It seems that some watchdog drivers are doing following mistake: rv = misc_register(); if (rv < 0) return rv; rv = request_region(); if (rv < 0) { misc_deregister(); return rv; } But, right after misc_register() returns, misc device can be opened and ioctls interacting with hardware issued, and driver can do outb() to port it doesn't own yet, because request_region() is still pending. Here is my patch, compile-tested only. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be>

* [WATCHDOG] use ENOTTY instead of ENOIOCTLCMD in ioctl()Samuel Tardieu2006-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Return ENOTTY instead of ENOIOCTLCMD in user-visible ioctl() results The watchdog drivers used to return ENOIOCTLCMD for bad ioctl() commands. ENOIOCTLCMD should not be visible by the user, so use ENOTTY instead.

* [PATCH] make more file_operation structs staticArjan van de Ven2006-07-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | Mark the static struct file_operations in drivers/char as const. Making them const prevents accidental bugs, and moves them to the .rodata section so that they no longer do any false sharing; in addition with the proper debug option they are then protected against corruption..

* [WATCHDOG] driver-for-ibm-automatic-server-restart-watchdog-fix2.patchWim Van Sebroeck2005-09-11
| | | | | | | | | | The device/watchdog has a fixed timeout/heartbeat. So we don't support the WDIOC_SETTIMEOUT ioctl call and we also may not set the WDIOF_SETTIMEOUT flag. Cc: Andrey Panin <pazke@donpac.ru> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be>

This patch adds driver for IBM Automatic Server Restart watchdog hardware found in some IBM eServer xSeries machines. This driver is based on the ugly driver provided by IBM. Driver was tested on IBM eServer 226. Signed-off-by: Andrey Panin <pazke@donpac.ru> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org>
