8 bool "Watchdog Timer Support"
10 If you say Y here (and to one of the following options) and create a
11 character special file /dev/watchdog with major number 10 and minor
12 number 130 using mknod ("man mknod"), you will get a watchdog, i.e.:
13 subsequently opening the file and then failing to write to it for
14 longer than 1 minute will result in rebooting the machine. This
15 could be useful for a networked machine that needs to come back
16 on-line as fast as possible after a lock-up. There's both a watchdog
17 implementation entirely in software (which can sometimes fail to
18 reboot the machine) and a driver for hardware watchdog boards, which
19 are more robust and can also keep track of the temperature inside
20 your computer. For details, read
21 <file:Documentation/watchdog/watchdog-api.rst> in the kernel source.
23 The watchdog is usually used together with the watchdog daemon
24 which is available from
25 <https://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/daemons/watchdog/>. This daemon
26 can also monitor NFS connections and can reboot the machine when the
27 process table is full.
34 tristate "WatchDog Timer Driver Core"
36 Say Y here if you want to use the new watchdog timer driver core.
37 This driver provides a framework for all watchdog timer drivers
38 and gives them the /dev/watchdog interface (and later also the
41 config WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT
42 bool "Disable watchdog shutdown on close"
44 The default watchdog behaviour (which you get if you say N here) is
45 to stop the timer if the process managing it closes the file
46 /dev/watchdog. It's always remotely possible that this process might
47 get killed. If you say Y here, the watchdog cannot be stopped once
50 config WATCHDOG_HANDLE_BOOT_ENABLED
51 bool "Update boot-enabled watchdog until userspace takes over"
54 The default watchdog behaviour (which you get if you say Y here) is
55 to ping watchdog devices that were enabled before the driver has
56 been loaded until control is taken over from userspace using the
57 /dev/watchdog file. If you say N here, the kernel will not update
58 the watchdog on its own. Thus if your userspace does not start fast
59 enough your device will reboot.
61 config WATCHDOG_OPEN_TIMEOUT
62 int "Timeout value for opening watchdog device"
65 The maximum time, in seconds, for which the watchdog framework takes
66 care of pinging a hardware watchdog. A value of 0 means infinite. The
67 value set here can be overridden by the commandline parameter
68 "watchdog.open_timeout".

79 Enable this if you want to use a hrtimer timer based pretimeout for
80 watchdogs that do not natively support pretimeout support. Be aware

82 be able to fire before the actual watchdog fires in some situations.
