| |
Hello everyone, I have an Intel board (D915GEV/D915GRF) with an onboard i8xx TCO timer watchdog on it. I compiled a kernel and tried to make it reset my machine, but it simply doesn't. I use Linus Linux tree (GIT HEAD), the following watchdog related configuration:
CONFIG_WATCHDOG=y CONFIG_WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT=y CONFIG_I6300ESB_WDT=y CONFIG_I8XX_TCO=y
I tried to test the watchdog using the following:
cat > /dev/watchdog
and wait a few minutes, but that doesn't reset my machine. dmesg shows the following:
(webfarm) [~] dmesg | grep TCO i8xx TCO timer: heartbeat value must be 2<heartbeat<39, using 30 i8xx TCO timer: initialized (0x0460). heartbeat=30 sec (nowayout=1)
lspci is this:

Has somone any ideas, did I do something wrong? From looking at the source code it looks like the watchdog is enabled as soon as I open the device. And if I don't feed anything in, it shouldn't reload the timer.
