To determine the max_timeout value, the below calculation is used. max_timeout = 0x10000000 / clk_rate cat /sys/devices/platform/soc@0/b017000.watchdog/watchdog/watchdog0/max_timeout 8388 However, this is not valid for all the platforms. IPQ SoCs starting from IPQ40xx and recent Snapdragron SoCs also has the bark and bite time field length of 20bits, which can hold max up to 32 seconds if the clk_rate is 32KHz. If the user tries to configure the timeout more than 32s, then the value will be truncated and the actual value will not be reflected in the HW. To avoid this, lets add a variable called max_tick_count in the device data, which defines max counter value of the WDT controller. Using this, max-timeout will be calculated in runtime for various WDT contorllers. With this change, we get the proper max_timeout as below and restricts the user from configuring the timeout higher than this. cat /sys/devices/platform/soc@0/b017000.watchdog/watchdog/watchdog0/max_timeout 32 Signed-off-by: Kathiravan Thirumoorthy <quic_kathirav@quicinc.com> Reviewed-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240116-wdt-v2-1-501c7694c3f0@quicinc.com Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@linux-watchdog.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
