|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm wbwd
|
|
.Nd device driver for watchdog timer found on Winbond Super I/O chips
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your
|
|
kernel configuration file:
|
|
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
|
|
.Cd "device wbwd"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following
|
|
line in
|
|
.Xr loader.conf 5 :
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
wbwd_load="YES"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver provides
|
|
.Xr watchdog 4
|
|
support for the watchdog interrupt timer present on at least the following
|
|
Winbond Super I/O chips:
|
|

.Sh SYSCTL VARIABLES
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver provides the following options as
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variables.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "xxxxxx"
|
|
.It Va dev.wbwd.0.timeout_override
|
|
This variable allows to program the timer to a value independent on the one
|
|
provided by the
|
|
.Xr watchdog 4
|
|
framework while still relying on the regular updates from e.g.
|
|
.Xr watchdogd 8 .
|
|
This is particularly useful if your system provides multiple watchdogs and
|
|
you want them to fire in a special sequence to trigger an NMI after a shorter
|
|
period than the reset timeout for example.
|
|
The value set must not be lower than the sleep time of
|
|
.Xr watchdogd 8 .
|
|
A value of 0 disables this feature and the timeout value provided by
|
|
.Xr watchdog 4
|
|
will be used.
|
|
.It Va dev.wbwd.0.debug_verbose
|
|
If set this sysctl will tell the driver to log its current state before and
|
|
after the timer reset on each invocation from
|
|
.Xr watchdog 9
|
|
to the kernel message buffer for debugging.
|
|
.It Va dev.wbwd.0.debug
|
|
This read-only value gives the state of some registers on last update.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver also provides further sysctl options that are hidden by default.
|
|
