Kumar Gala	39cdc4bfb5	[PATCH] ppc32: Cleaned up global namespace of Book-E watchdog variables ... Renamed global variables used to convey if the watchdog is enabled and periodicity of the timer and moved the declarations into a header for these variables Signed-off-by: Matt McClintock <msm@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <kumar.gala@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>	20 years ago
Kumar Gala	a2f40ccd29	[PATCH] ppc32: Added support for the Book-E style Watchdog Timer ... PowerPC 40x and Book-E processors support a watchdog timer at the processor core level. The timer has implementation dependent timeout frequencies that can be configured by software. One the first Watchdog timeout we get a critical exception. It is left to board specific code to determine what should happen at this point. If nothing is done and another timeout period expires the processor may attempt to reset the machine. Command line parameters: wdt=0 : disable watchdog (default) wdt=1 : enable watchdog wdt_period=N : N sets the value of the Watchdog Timer Period. The Watchdog Timer Period meaning is implementation specific. Check User Manual for the processor for more details. This patch is based off of work done by Takeharu Kato.

Utz Bacher	031f7edecf	[PATCH] ppc64: add a watchdog driver for rtas ... Add a watchdog using the RTAS OS surveillance service. This is provided as a simpler alternative to rtasd. The added value is that it works with standard watchdog client programs and can therefore also do user space monitoring. On BPA, rtasd is not really useful because the hardware does not have much to report with event-scan. The driver should also work on other platforms that support the OS surveillance rtas calls.

Linus Torvalds	1da177e4c3	Linux-2.6.12-rc2 ... Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!	20 years ago
