53 * Board: Super Micro Computer Inc. 370SSE+-OEM1/P3TSSE
56 * Code contributed by: R. Seretny <lkpatches@paypc.com>
57 * Documentation obtained by R. Seretny from SuperMicro Technical Support
59 * To enable Watchdog function:
60 * BIOS setup -> Power -> TCO Logic SMI Enable -> Within5Minutes
61 * This setting enables SMI to clear the watchdog expired flag.
62 * If BIOS or CPU fail which may cause SMI hang, then system will
63 * reboot. When application starts to use watchdog function,
64 * application has to take over the control from SMI.
66 * For P3TSSE, J36 jumper needs to be removed to enable the Watchdog
69 * Note: The system will reboot when Expire Flag is set TWICE.
70 * So, if the watchdog timer is 20 seconds, then the maximum hang
71 * time is about 40 seconds, and the minimum hang time is about

97 * Board: Some Intel ICHx based motherboards
100 * Some Intel motherboards have a broken BIOS implementation: i.e.
101 * the SMI handler clear's the TIMEOUT bit in the TC01_STS register
102 * and does not reload the time. Thus the TCO watchdog does not reboot
105 * These are the conclusions of Andriy Gapon <avg@icyb.net.ua> after
106 * debugging: the SMI handler is quite simple - it tests value in
107 * TCO1_CNT against 0x800, i.e. checks TCO_TMR_HLT. If the bit is set
108 * the handler goes into an infinite loop, apparently to allow the
109 * second timeout and reboot. Otherwise it simply clears TIMEOUT bit
110 * in TCO1_STS and that's it.
111 * So the logic seems to be reversed, because it is hard to see how
112 * TIMEOUT can get set to 1 and SMI generated when TCO_TMR_HLT is set
113 * (other than a transitional effect).
115 * The only fix found to get the motherboard(s) to reboot is to put
116 * the glb_smi_en bit to 0. This is a dirty hack that bypasses the
117 * broken code by disabling Global SMI.
119 * WARNING: globally disabling SMI could possibly lead to dramatic
120 * problems, especially on laptops! I.e. various ACPI things where
121 * SMI is used for communication between OS and firmware.
123 * Don't use this fix if you don't need to!!!
