17 * Added nowayout module option to override CONFIG_WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT
18 * Can't add timeout - driver doesn't allow changing value
22 * Theory of Operation:
23 * The Watch-Dog Timer is provided to ensure that standalone
24 * Systems can always recover from catastrophic conditions that
25 * caused the CPU to crash. This condition may have occurred by
26 * external EMI or a software bug. When the CPU stops working
27 * correctly, hardware on the board will either perform a hardware
28 * reset (cold boot) or a non-maskable interrupt (NMI) to bring the
29 * system back to a known state.
31 * The Watch-Dog Timer is controlled by two I/O Ports.
32 * 443 hex - Read - Enable or refresh the Watch-Dog Timer
33 * 043 hex - Read - Disable the Watch-Dog Timer
35 * To enable the Watch-Dog Timer, a read from I/O port 443h must
36 * be performed. This will enable and activate the countdown timer
37 * which will eventually time out and either reset the CPU or cause
38 * an NMI depending on the setting of a jumper. To ensure that this
39 * reset condition does not occur, the Watch-Dog Timer must be
40 * periodically refreshed by reading the same I/O port 443h.
41 * The Watch-Dog Timer is disabled by reading I/O port 043h.
43 * The Watch-Dog Timer Time-Out Period is set via jumpers.
44 * It can be 1, 2, 10, 20, 110 or 220 seconds.
48 * Includes, defines, variables, module parameters, ...
