Some watchdog drivers implement WDIOF_CARDRESET feature. As example,
see commit b6ef36d2c1 ("watchdog: qcom: Report reboot reason").
This option allows reporting to userspace the cause of the last boot
(POR/watchdog reset), being helpful in e.g. automated test-cases.
Add support for WDIOC_GETBOOTSTATUS in the test code, to be able to:
- check if watchdog drivers properly implement WDIOF_CARDRESET.
- check the last boot status, if WDIOF_CARDRESET is implemented.
Make the `-b, --bootstatus` option one-shot. That means, skip the
keepalive mechanism if `-b` is provided on the command line, as we
are only interested in the boot status information.
Tested on Rcar-H3 Salvator-X board:
********************** Cold boot finished
salvator-x:/home/root# ./watchdog-test -h
Usage: ./watchdog-test [options]
-b, --bootstatus Get last boot status (Watchdog/POR)
-d, --disable Turn off the watchdog timer
-e, --enable Turn on the watchdog timer
-h, --help Print the help message
-p, --pingrate=P Set ping rate to P seconds (default 1)
-t, --timeout=T Set timeout to T seconds
Parameters are parsed left-to-right in real-time.
Example: ./watchdog-test -d -t 10 -p 5 -e
salvator-x:/home/root#
salvator-x:/home/root# ./watchdog-test -b
Last boot is caused by: Power-On-Reset.
salvator-x:/home/root#
salvator-x:/home/root# ./watchdog-test -d -t 1 -p 2 -e
Watchdog card disabled.
Watchdog timeout set to 1 seconds.
Watchdog ping rate set to 2 seconds.
Watchdog card enabled.
Watchdog Ticking Away!
********************** Reboot due to watchdog trigger finished
salvator-x:/home/root# ./watchdog-test -b
Last boot is caused by: Watchdog.
salvator-x:/home/root#
salvator-x:/home/root# reboot
********************** Reboot due to user action finished
salvator-x:/home/root# ./watchdog-test -b
Last boot is caused by: Power-On-Reset.
salvator-x:/home/root#

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
