Winbond 83627HF chip I believe BIOS has watchdog disabled otherwise it would have reboot the box. However, the timer just start counting. Comparing to ipmi_watchdog, you can do this: modprobe ipmi_watchdog ... start_now=0 ...action=<> nowayout=1 So it is possible to load the driver without start counting. Notice it is an else, so t is actually 0 already (i.e. expired or never start running): > + } else { > + outb_p(0, WDT_EFDR); /* disable to prevent reboot */ -- - Tony Chung -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
