bool "Watchdog Timer Support"
help
If you say Y here (and to one of the following options) and create a
character special file /dev/watchdog with major number 10 and minor
number 130 using mknod ("man mknod"), you will get a watchdog, i.e.:
subsequently opening the file and then failing to write to it for
longer than 1 minute will result in rebooting the machine. This
could be useful for a networked machine that needs to come back
on-line as fast as possible after a lock-up. There's both a watchdog
implementation entirely in software (which can sometimes fail to
reboot the machine) and a driver for hardware watchdog boards, which
are more robust and can also keep track of the temperature inside
your computer. For details, read
<file:Documentation/watchdog/watchdog-api.rst> in the kernel source.
The watchdog is usually used together with the watchdog daemon
which is available from
<ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/daemons/watchdog/>. This daemon can
also monitor NFS connections and can reboot the machine when the process
table is full.
If unsure, say N.

help
Say Y here if you want to use the new watchdog timer driver core.
This driver provides a framework for all watchdog timer drivers
and gives them the /dev/watchdog interface (and later also the
sysfs interface).
config WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT
bool "Disable watchdog shutdown on close"
help
The default watchdog behaviour (which you get if you say N here) is
to stop the timer if the process managing it closes the file
/dev/watchdog. It's always remotely possible that this process might
get killed. If you say Y here, the watchdog cannot be stopped once
it has been started.
config WATCHDOG_HANDLE_BOOT_ENABLED
bool "Update boot-enabled watchdog until userspace takes over"
default y
help
The default watchdog behaviour (which you get if you say Y here) is
to ping watchdog devices that were enabled before the driver has
been loaded until control is taken over from userspace using the
/dev/watchdog file. If you say N here, the kernel will not update
the watchdog on its own. Thus if your userspace does not start fast
enough your device will reboot.

Hardware driver for OCTEON's on chip watchdog timer.
Enables the watchdog for all cores running Linux. It
installs a NMI handler and pokes the watchdog based on an
interrupt. On first expiration of the watchdog, the
interrupt handler pokes it. The second expiration causes an
NMI that prints a message. The third expiration causes a
global soft reset.
When userspace has /dev/watchdog open, no poking is done
from the first interrupt, it is then only poked when the
device is written.

This driver adds watchdog support for the integrated watchdog in the
SuperH processors. If you have one of these processors and wish
to have watchdog support enabled, say Y, otherwise say N.
As a side note, saying Y here will automatically boost HZ to 1000
so that the timer has a chance to clear the overflow counter. On
slower systems (such as the SH-2 and SH-3) this will likely yield
some performance issues. As such, the WDT should be avoided here
unless it is absolutely necessary.
