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.

Certain watchdogs require the watchdog only to be pinged within a
specific time window, pinging too early or too late cause the watchdog
to fire. In cases where this sort of watchdog has been started before
kernel comes up, we must adjust the watchdog keepalive window to match
the actually running timer, so add a new driver API for this purpose.

The FIXME comment has been in-tree since the very first git commit.
The described behavior has been since relied on by some userspace, e.g.
the util-linux wdctl command and has been ignored by some kernelspace,
like the f71808e_wdt driver.
The functionality is useful to have to be able to differentiate between a
driver that doesn't support WDIOF_CARDRESET and one that does, but hasn't
had a watchdog reset, thus drop the FIXME to encourage drivers adopting
this convention.

The contents of those directories were orphaned at the documentation
body.
While those directories could likely be moved to be inside some guide,
I'm opting to just adding their indexes to the main one, removing the
:orphan: and adding the SPDX header.
For the drivers, the rationale is that the documentation contains
a mix of Kernelspace, uAPI and admin-guide. So, better to keep them on
separate directories, as we've be doing with similar subsystem-specific
docs that were not split yet.
For the others, well... I'm too lazy to do the move. Also, it
seems to make sense to keep at least some of those at the main
dir (like kbuild, for example). In any case, a latter patch
could do the move.

This allows setting a default value for the watchdog.open_timeout
commandline parameter via Kconfig.
Some BSPs allow remote updating of the kernel image and root file
system, but updating the bootloader requires physical access. Hence, if
one has a firmware update that requires relaxing the
watchdog.open_timeout a little, the value used must be baked into the
kernel image itself and cannot come from the u-boot environment via the
kernel command line.
Being able to set the initial value in .config doesn't change the fact
that the value on the command line, if present, takes precedence, and is
of course immensely useful for development purposes while one has
console acccess, as well as usable in the cases where one can make a
permanent update of the kernel command line.

The watchdog framework takes care of feeding a hardware watchdog until
userspace opens /dev/watchdogN. If that never happens for some reason
(buggy init script, corrupt root filesystem or whatnot) but the kernel
itself is fine, the machine stays up indefinitely. This patch allows
setting an upper limit for how long the kernel will take care of the
watchdog, thus ensuring that the watchdog will eventually reset the
machine.
A value of 0 (the default) means infinite timeout, preserving the
current behaviour.
This is particularly useful for embedded devices where some fallback
logic is implemented in the bootloader (e.g., use a different root
partition, boot from network, ...).
There is already handle_boot_enabled serving a similar purpose. However,
such a binary choice is unsuitable if the hardware watchdog cannot be
programmed by the bootloader to provide a timeout long enough for
userspace to get up and running. Many of the embedded devices we see use
external (gpio-triggered) watchdogs with a fixed timeout of the order of
1-2 seconds.
The open timeout only applies for the first open from
userspace. Should userspace need to close the watchdog device, with
the intention of re-opening it shortly, the application can emulate
the open timeout feature by combining the nowayout feature with an
appropriate WDIOC_SETTIMEOUT immediately prior to closing the device.

The ICH9 is listed as having TCO v2, and indeed the behavior in the
datasheet corresponds to v2 (for example the NO_REBOOT flag is
accessible via the 16KiB-aligned Root Complex Base Address).
However, the TCO counts twice just like in v1; the documentation
of the SECOND_TO_STS bit says: "ICH9 sets this bit to 1 to indicate
that the TIMEOUT bit had been (or is currently) set and a second
timeout occurred before the TCO_RLD register was written. If this
bit is set and the NO_REBOOT config bit is 0, then the ICH9 will
reboot the system after the second timeout. The same can be found
in the BayTrail (Atom E3800) datasheet, and even HOWTOs around
the Internet say that it will reboot after _twice_ the specified
heartbeat.
I did not find the Apollo Lake datasheet, but because v4/v5 has
a SECOND_TO_STS bit just like the previous version I'm enabling
this for Apollo Lake as well.

The change adds a simple watchdog pretimeout framework infrastructure,
its purpose is to allow users to select a desired handling of watchdog
pretimeout events, which may be generated by some watchdog devices.
A user selects a default watchdog pretimeout governor during
compilation stage.
Watchdogs with WDIOF_PRETIMEOUT capability now have one more device
attribute in sysfs, pretimeout_governor attribute is intended to display
the selected watchdog pretimeout governor.
The framework has no impact at runtime on watchdog devices with no
WDIOF_PRETIMEOUT capability set.

Up to now, the watchdog status function called a driver function,
which was supposed to return the watchdog status. All but one
driver using the watchdog core did not implement this function,
and the driver implementing it did not implement it correctly
(the function is supposed to return WDIOF_ flags). At the same time,
at least some of the status information can be provided by the watchdog
core.
Provide the available status bits directly from the watchdog driver core.
Call the driver status function if it exists to get the boot status, but
always provide WDIOF_MAGICCLOSE and WDIOF_KEEPALIVEPING internally.
This patch makes the 'status' sysfs attribute always available.
This attribute is now displayed as hex number with 0x prepended to be
easier to decode.

For some watchdogs, the watchdog driver handles timeout changes without
explicitly setting any registers. In this situation, the watchdog driver
might only set the 'timeout' variable but do nothing else.
This can as well be handled by the infrastructure, so make the set_timeout
callback optional. If WDIOF_SETTIMEOUT is configured but the .set_timeout
callback is not available, update the timeout variable in the
infrastructure code.

The Zodiac watchdog driver attaches additional sysfs attributes to the
watchdog device. This has a number of problems: The watchdog device
lifetime differs from the driver lifetime, and the device structure
should therefore not be accessed from drivers. Also, creating sysfs
attributes after driver registration results in a potential race condition
if user space expects the attributes to exist but they don't exist yet.
Add support for creating driver specific sysfs attributes to the watchdog
core to solve the problems.

All variables required by the watchdog core to manage a watchdog are
currently stored in struct watchdog_device. The lifetime of those
variables is determined by the watchdog driver. However, the lifetime
of variables used by the watchdog core differs from the lifetime of
struct watchdog_device. To remedy this situation, watchdog drivers
can implement ref and unref callbacks, to be used by the watchdog
core to lock struct watchdog_device in memory.
While this solves the immediate problem, it depends on watchdog drivers
to actually implement the ref/unref callbacks. This is error prone,
often not implemented in the first place, or not implemented correctly.
To solve the problem without requiring driver support, split the variables
in struct watchdog_device into two data structures - one for variables
associated with the watchdog driver, one for variables associated with
the watchdog core. With this approach, the watchdog core can keep track
of its variable lifetime and no longer depends on ref/unref callbacks
in the driver. As a side effect, some of the variables originally in
struct watchdog_driver are now private to the watchdog core and no longer
visible in watchdog drivers.
As a side effect of the changes made, an ioctl will now always fail
with -ENODEV after a watchdog device was unregistered with the character
device still open. Previously, it would only fail with -ENODEV in some
situations. Also, ioctl operations are now atomic from driver perspective.
With this change, it is now guaranteed that the driver will not unregister
a watchdog between a timeout change and the subsequent ping.
The 'ref' and 'unref' callbacks in struct watchdog_driver are no longer
used and marked as deprecated.

Many watchdog drivers register a reboot notifier in order to stop the
watchdog on system reboot. Thus we can factorize this code in the
watchdog core.
For that purpose, a new notifier block is added in watchdog_device for
internal use only, as well as a new watchdog_stop_on_reboot helper
function.
If this helper is called, watchdog core registers the related notifier
block and will stop the watchdog when SYS_HALT or SYS_DOWN is received.
Since this operation can be critical on some platforms, abort the device
registration if the reboot notifier registration fails.

On some hardware platforms, the it87_wdt watchdog resets the machine
despite the watchdog daemon running and writing to /dev/watchdog.
This is due to Consumer IR buffer underrun interrupts being used as
triggers to reset the timer. On some buggy hardware implementations
such as the iEi AFL-12A-N270 single-board computer, this method does
not work.
However, resetting the timer by writing its original timeout value in
its configuration register over and over again suppresses the unwanted
reboots.
Add a module option (nocir), 0 by default in order not to break existing
setups. Setting it to 1 enables the workaround.
Fixes bug #42801 <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42801>.

Interrupt request doesn't use the right API: The TWD watchdog uses a per-cpu
interrupt (usually interrupt #30), and the GIC configuration should flag it as
such. With this setup, request_irq() should fail, and the right API is
request_percpu_irq(), together with enable_percpu_irq()/disable_percpu_irq().
Nothing ensures the userspace ioctl() will end-up kicking the watchdog on the
right CPU.
There are no users of this driver since a long time and it makes more sense to
get rid of it as nobody is looking to fix it.
In case somebody wakes up after this has been removed and needs it, please
revert this driver and pick these updates (These were never pushed to mainline):

If a driver's watchdog_device struct is part of a dynamically allocated
struct (which it often will be), merely locking the module is not enough,
even with a drivers module locked, the driver can be unbound from the device,
examples:
1) The root user can unbind it through sysfd
2) The i2c bus master driver being unloaded for an i2c watchdog
I will gladly admit that these are corner cases, but we still need to handle
them correctly.
The fix for this consists of 2 parts:
1) Add ref / unref operations, so that the driver can refcount the struct
holding the watchdog_device struct and delay freeing it until any
open filehandles referring to it are closed
2) Most driver operations will do IO on the device and the driver should not
do any IO on the device after it has been unbound. Rather then letting each
driver deal with this internally, it is better to ensure at the watchdog
core level that no operations (other then unref) will get called after
the driver has called watchdog_unregister_device(). This actually is the
bulk of this patch.

This patch fixes some potential multithreading issues, despite only
allowing one process to open the /dev/watchdog device, we can still get
called multiple times at the same time, since a program could be using thread,
or could share the fd after a fork.
This causes 2 potential problems:
1) watchdog_start / open do an unlocked test_n_set / test_n_clear,
if these 2 race, the watchdog could be stopped while the active
bit indicates it is running or visa versa.
2) Most watchdog_dev drivers probably assume that only one
watchdog-op will get called at a time, this is not necessary
true atm.

When a set_timeout operation succeeds this does not necessarily mean that
the exact timeout requested has been achieved, because the watchdog does not

The WatchDog Timer Driver Core is a framework
that contains the common code for all watchdog-driver's.
It also introduces a watchdog device structure and the
operations that go with it.
This is the introduction of this framework. This part
supports the minimal watchdog userspace API (or with
other words: the functionality to use /dev/watchdog's
open, release and write functionality as defined in
the simplest watchdog API). Extra functionality will
follow in the next set of patches.

the WDIOC_SETOPTIONS ioctl as a pointer to an integer containing the
values intead of directly in the third ioctl argument. The actual
watchdog drivers in drivers/watchdog don't read the options directly
from the argument but use get_user and copy_from_user.

Currently source files in the Documentation/ sub-dir can easily bit-rot
since they are not generally buildable, either because they are hidden in
text files or because there are no Makefile rules for them. This needs to
be fixed so that the source files remain usable and good examples of code
instead of bad examples.
Add the ability to build source files that are in the Documentation/ dir.
Add to Kconfig as "BUILD_DOCSRC" config symbol.
Use "CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=1 make ..." to build objects from the
Documentation/ sources. Or enable BUILD_DOCSRC in the *config system.
However, this symbol depends on HEADERS_CHECK since the header files need
to be installed (for userspace builds).
Built (using cross-tools) for x86-64, i386, alpha, ia64, sparc32,
sparc64, powerpc, sh, m68k, & mips.

Documentation/watchdog/:
Expose example and tool source files in the Documentation/ directory in
their own files instead of being buried (almost hidden) in readme/txt files.
This will make them more visible/usable to users who may need
to use them, to developers who may need to test with them, and
to janitors who would update them if they were more visible.
Also, if any of these possibly should not be in the kernel tree at
all, it will be clearer that they are here and we can discuss if
they should be removed.

Some watchdog drivers have the ability to report the remaining time
before the system will reboot. With the WDIOC_GETTIMELEFT ioctl
you can now read the time left before the watchdog would reboot
your system.
The following drivers support this new IOCTL:
i8xx_tco.c, pcwd_pci.c and pcwd_usb.c .

Some watchdog timers support the concept of a "pretimeout" which
occurs some time before the real timeout. The pretimeout can
be delivered via an interrupt or NMI and can be used to panic
the system when it occurs (so you get useful information instead
of a blind reboot).

PowerPC 40x and Book-E processors support a watchdog timer at the processor
core level. The timer has implementation dependent timeout frequencies
that can be configured by software.
One the first Watchdog timeout we get a critical exception. It is left to
board specific code to determine what should happen at this point. If
nothing is done and another timeout period expires the processor may
attempt to reset the machine.
Command line parameters:
wdt=0 : disable watchdog (default)
wdt=1 : enable watchdog
wdt_period=N : N sets the value of the Watchdog Timer Period.
The Watchdog Timer Period meaning is implementation specific. Check
User Manual for the processor for more details.
This patch is based off of work done by Takeharu Kato.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
