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

80 watchdogs that do not natively support pretimeout support. Be aware

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