[PATCH v1] iTCO_wdt: ignore NMI_NOW bit on register comparison

[PATCH v1] iTCO_wdt: ignore NMI_NOW bit on register comparison

[Oleksandr Ocheretnyi]

Commit da23b6faa8bf ("watchdog: iTCO: Add support for Cannon Lake
PCH iTCO") does not ignore NMI_NOW bit on write operation to TCO1_CNT
register what causes unexpected NMIs due to NMI_NOW bit inversion
during regular crashkernel's workflow with following logs:

iTCO_vendor_support: vendor-support=0
iTCO_wdt iTCO_wdt: unable to reset NO_REBOOT flag, device
                                            disabled by hardware/BIOS

This change clears NMI_NOW bit in the TCO1_CNT register to have no
effect on NMI_NOW bit inversion what can cause NMI immediately.

I suggest adding some #define for the magical number 8 so that it is
easier for anyone looking at this driver to figure out what it is doing.

Otherwise looks good to me, thanks!

Not really; it appears to be hiding a change in code which is supposed to do
something different (it is supposed to set or clear the no_reboot bit),
with no explanation whatsoever. That warrants a comment in the code.
Also, I would prefer
	val = inw(TCO1_CNT(p)) & ~BIT(8);

On top of that, I fail to understand "on register comparison" in the subject.
What register comparison ?

Sorry, one more: The comment will need to explain why clearing bit 8 is needed
here but not for any other writes to TCO1_CNT. Obviously this isn't just "ignore
bit on write" but something more.

[PATCH v2] iTCO_wdt: mask NMI_NOW bit for update_no_reboot_bit() call

[Oleksandr Ocheretnyi]

Commit da23b6faa8bf ("watchdog: iTCO: Add support for Cannon Lake
PCH iTCO") does not mask NMI_NOW bit during TCO1_CNT register's
value comparison for update_no_reboot_bit() call causing following
failure:

   ...
   iTCO_vendor_support: vendor-support=0
   iTCO_wdt iTCO_wdt: unable to reset NO_REBOOT flag, device
                                    disabled by hardware/BIOS
   ...

and this can lead to unexpected NMIs later during regular
crashkernel's workflow because of watchdog probe call failures.

This change masks NMI_NOW bit for TCO1_CNT register values to
avoid unexpected NMI_NOW bit inversions.

The mask variable is not necessary.

[PATCH v3] iTCO_wdt: mask NMI_NOW bit for update_no_reboot_bit() call

[Oleksandr Ocheretnyi]

Commit da23b6faa8bf ("watchdog: iTCO: Add support for Cannon Lake
PCH iTCO") does not mask NMI_NOW bit during TCO1_CNT register's
value comparison for update_no_reboot_bit() call causing following
failure:

   ...
   iTCO_vendor_support: vendor-support=0
   iTCO_wdt iTCO_wdt: unable to reset NO_REBOOT flag, device
                                    disabled by hardware/BIOS
   ...

and this can lead to unexpected NMIs later during regular
crashkernel's workflow because of watchdog probe call failures.

This change masks NMI_NOW bit for TCO1_CNT register values to
avoid unexpected NMI_NOW bit inversions.

[PATCH v3] iTCO_wdt: mask NMI_NOW bit for update_no_reboot_bit() call

Hello Mika,

Are the changes with #define NMI_NOW bit fine for you?

Best regards,
Oleksandr
