Folks...
I have committed a generic framework for hardware watchdog timers. The
watchdog timer function in the PC-Weasel serial console board for PCs
is currently supported. I'll be adding support for the ICS PCI-WDT501
watchdog timer board shortly.
delphi:thorpej 136$ wdogctl
Available watchdog timers:
weasel, 12 second period [armed, kernel tickle]
delphi:thorpej 137$
I plan on getting these pulled into NetBSD 1.5.1.
See the wdogctl(8) manual page for more information.
Shar and enjoy.
