Subject: [PATCH] [v2] watchdog: booke_wdt: clean up status messages
Date: Tue, 8 Feb 2011 17:39:46 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1297208386-15010-1-git-send-email-timur@freescale.com> (raw)
Improve the status messages that are displayed during some operations of the
PowerPC watchdog timer driver. When the watchdog is enabled, the timeout is
displayed as a number of seconds, instead of an obscure "period". The "period"
is the position of a bit in a 64-bit timer register. The higher the value,
the quicker the watchdog timeout occurs. Some people chose a high "period"
value for the timer and get confused as to why the board resets within a
few seconds.
Messages displayed during open and close are now debug messages, so that they
don't clutter the console by default. Finally, printk() is replaced with the
pr_xxx() equivalent.
