Subject: [PATCH] Documentation/watchdog: add timeout and ping rate control to watchdog-test.c
Date: Mon, 29 Jun 2015 11:46:17 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1435596377-17737-1-git-send-email-timur@codeaurora.org> (raw)

The watchdog test program is much more useful if it can configure the
timeout value and ping rate.  This will allow you to test actual timeouts.

Adds the -t parameter to set the timeout value (in seconds), and -p to set
the ping rate (number of seconds between pings).
