[PATCH v2] watchdog: Add driver for Altera Watchdog Timer

[PATCH v2] watchdog: Add driver for Altera Watchdog Timer

[Tobias Klauser]

This driver adds support for the Altera Timer in the Watchdog Timer
configuration. This component is usually found on SOPC (System on
Programmable Chip) for Altera FPGAs.

Thanks a lot to Jamie Iles for reviewing the first submitted version of this
driver.

changes for v2:
 - Get driver properties from devicetree (and document them), thus the
   driver depends on OF
 - Do not select WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT, but instead implement a software
   timer resetting the watchdog timer when the device is not open
 - Only support a single instance of the watchdog, so the private data
   can be kept in static data
 - Use devm_* functions in altera_wdt_probe to simplify cleanup and
   error handling
 - Remove empty altera_wdt_shutdown function
 - Add MODULE_LICENSE (GPL)

Hi Tobias,

One very pedantic comment, otherwise looks great!

[PATCH v3] watchdog: Add driver for Altera Watchdog Timer

[Tobias Klauser]

This driver adds support for the Altera Timer in the Watchdog Timer
configuration. This component is usually found on SOPC (System on
Programmable Chip) for Altera FPGAs.

Thanks a lot to Jamie Iles and Walter Goossens for their feedback on v2.

changes for v3:
 - Make altera_wdt_setup static void (as suggested by Jamie)
 - Use const __be32 * for devicetree properties (as suggested by Walter)
changes for v2:
 - Get driver properties from devicetree (and document them), thus the
   driver depends on OF
 - Do not select WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT, but instead implement a software
   timer resetting the watchdog timer when the device is not open
 - Only support a single instance of the watchdog, so the private data
   can be kept in static data
 - Use devm_* functions in altera_wdt_probe to simplify cleanup and
   error handling
 - Remove empty altera_wdt_shutdown function
 - Add MODULE_LICENSE (GPL)

For what this value is used? Why 42? It's never checked in code to such a value.

The value 42 is arbitrary, I used it because other watchdog drivers
implementing software timers to tickle the watchdog are using it that
way too. Its value is not explicitely checked for, it's only checked in
altera_wdt_release for being 0/not 0 to determine whether to stop the
software timer.
