6 bool "Watchdog Timer Support"
7 ---help---
8 If you say Y here (and to one of the following options) and create a
9 character special file /dev/watchdog with major number 10 and minor
10 number 130 using mknod ("man mknod"), you will get a watchdog, i.e.:
11 subsequently opening the file and then failing to write to it for
12 longer than 1 minute will result in rebooting the machine. This
13 could be useful for a networked machine that needs to come back
14 on-line as fast as possible after a lock-up. There's both a watchdog
15 implementation entirely in software (which can sometimes fail to
16 reboot the machine) and a driver for hardware watchdog boards, which
17 are more robust and can also keep track of the temperature inside
18 your computer. For details, read
19 <file:Documentation/watchdog/watchdog-api.txt> in the kernel source.
20
21 The watchdog is usually used together with the watchdog daemon
22 which is available from
23 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/daemons/watchdog/>. This daemon can
24 also monitor NFS connections and can reboot the machine when the process
25 table is full.
26
27 If unsure, say N.

31 config WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT
32 bool "Disable watchdog shutdown on close"
33 help
34 The default watchdog behaviour (which you get if you say N here) is
35 to stop the timer if the process managing it closes the file
36 /dev/watchdog. It's always remotely possible that this process might
37 get killed. If you say Y here, the watchdog cannot be stopped once
38 it has been started.

1140 This is the driver for the Berkshire Products PCI-PC Watchdog card.
1141 This card simply watches your kernel to make sure it doesn't freeze,
1142 and if it does, it reboots your computer after a certain amount of
1143 time. The card can also monitor the internal temperature of the PC.
1144 More info is available at <http://www.berkprod.com/pci_pc_watchdog.htm>.

1146 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1147 module will be called pcwd_pci.

1155 If you have a PCI-WDT500/501 watchdog board, say Y here, otherwise N.
1156
1157 If you have a PCI-WDT501 watchdog board then you can enable the
1158 temperature sensor by setting the type parameter to 501.
1159
1160 If you want to enable the Fan Tachometer on the PCI-WDT501, then you
1161 can do this via the tachometer parameter. Only do this if you have a
1162 fan tachometer actually set up.

1164 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1165 module will be called wdt_pci.
