|
Hardware driver for the intel TCO timer based watchdog devices.
|
|
These drivers are included in the Intel 82801 I/O Controller
|
|
Hub family (from ICH0 up to ICH10) and in the Intel 63xxESB
|
|
controller hub.
|
|
|
|
The TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) timer is a watchdog timer
|
|
that will reboot the machine after its second expiration. The
|
|
expiration time can be configured with the "heartbeat" parameter.
|
|
|
|
On some motherboards the driver may fail to reset the chipset's
|
|
NO_REBOOT flag which prevents the watchdog from rebooting the
|
|
machine. If this is the case you will get a kernel message like
|
|
"failed to reset NO_REBOOT flag, reboot disabled by hardware".
|
|
|
|
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
|
|
module will be called iTCO_wdt.
