When ioctls for WDIOC_SETOPTIONS (WDIOS_DISABLECARD or WDIOS_ENABLECARD), WDIOC_SETTIMEOUT, and WDIOC_SETPRETIMEOUT fail, the error path continues to handler watchdog timer until user terminates it. When ioctl returns error, it might not be safe to let the watchdog tick. The error could be due an unsupported ioctl command or some other error. Fix it to handle error paths as oneshot to stop the watchdog ticks and exit right away. Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan (Samsung OSG) <shuah@kernel.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.
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.
