Thanks a lot Pádraig for your review.

I think we may find half of each (0x2e and 0x4e). I'm reluctant to let
the autodetection routine be the default. What if another peripheral is at
the other address, could bad things happen?

| Is W83697HG a good name?

HF would be equally good. I just named it after the watchdog I had in my
hardware. If there is a preference for HF, I can change it.

Thank you.

Note that the watchdog is enabled only when the device is open and is
signalled during the wdt_enable() routine just after switching the mode
to seconds. The opportunity for the device to reboot while we are in the
middle of open() will exist anyway and would be a very bad luck.

But I buy your argument in order to reduce the risks: setting the
counter to 0 before switching the mode (in wdt_enable()) would decrease
the possibility of bad luck happening :) But I don't think this is worth
a warning; just set the counter to 0 (not counting) before doing the
configuration is benign enough not to be signalled IMO.

Also, wdt_open() has a wdt_ping() just after the wdt_enable() and this
is superfluous, I remove it.

Here is an updated patch with the changes mentionned above. Don't
hesitate to comment on it or request other changes.



Winbond W83697HG watchdog timer

The Winbond SuperIO W83697HG includes a watchdog that can count from
1 to 255 seconds (or minutes). This drivers allows the seconds mode to
be used. It exposes a standard /dev/watchdog interface.

This chip is currently being used on motherboards designed by
VIA and Dedibox. It should be compatible with W83697HF chips as well
according to the datasheet but is untested on those.

By default, the module looks for a chip at I/O port 0x4e. The chip can
be configured to be at 0x2e on some motherboards, the address can be
chosen using the wdt_io module parameter. Using 0 will try to autodetect
the address.
