Reference counting is now implemented in the watchdog core and no longer required in watchdog drivers. Since it was implememented a no-op, and since the local memory is allocated with devm_kzalloc(), the reference counting code in the driver really did not really work anyway, and this patch effectively fixes a bug which could cause a crash on unloading if the watchdog device was still open.

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.

A watchdog driver should not use watchdog subsystem internal flags. Use a driver variable and flag instead to maintain the watchdog state and to determine if a suspend operation is possible or not. Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be>

The watchdog character device is currently created in watchdog_dev.c, and the watchdog device in watchdog_core.c. This results in cross-dependencies, since device creation needs to know the watchdog character device number as well as the watchdog class, both of which reside in watchdog_dev.c. Create the watchdog device in watchdog_dev.c to simplify the code. Inspired by earlier patch set from Damien Riegel.

This watchdog is instantiated in a FPGA that is memory mapped. It is made of only one register, called the feed register. Writing to this register will re-arm the watchdog for a given time (and enable it if it was disable). It can be disabled by writing a special value into it. It is part of a syscon block, and the watchdog register offset in this block varies from board to board. This offset is passed in the syscon property after the phandle to the syscon node.

With the early_enable module parameter the watchdog can be started during driver probe time. If this is requested the bets are good that the timer is already running, so to narrow the gap where the timer is disabled only call the disable function when the timer shouldn't be started.

omap_wdt_start calls pm_runtime_get_sync so dropping a reference just before calling omap_wdt_start doesn't make much sense. Moreover there is no point to use the synchronous variant of pm_runtime_put because the driver doesn't care if the clock is disabled before or after omap_wdt_probe returns.

On 64bit platforms, "(1 << (16 + top)) / clk_get_rate(dw_wdt.clk)" is sign-extended to 64bit then converted to unsigned 64bit, finally divide the clk rate. If the top is the maximum TOP i.e 15, "(1 << (16 +15))" will be sign-extended to 0xffffffff80000000, then converted to unsigned 0xffffffff80000000, which is a huge number, thus the final result is wrong. We fix this issue by giving usigned value(1U in this case) at first. Let's assume clk rate is 25MHZ, Before the patch: dw_wdt_top_in_seconds(15) = -864612050 After the patch: dw_wdt_top_in_seconds(15) = 85 Signed-off-by: Jisheng Zhang <jszhang@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be>

We need few sysfs attributes to know different status of a watchdog device. To do that, we need to associate .dev_groups with watchdog_class. So convert it from pointer to static. Putting this static struct in watchdog_dev.c, so that static device attributes defined in that file can be attached to it.

The core function now calls ops->stop on SYS_HALT and SYS_DOWN. To prevent the watchdog from being stopped on reboot, the "always-running" property must be set, otherwise it will now be stopped.

Damien Riegel authored
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.
