Correct. This feature has to be opt-in on top of watchdogd. If you don't add-in this feature, you won't have this new protection. You have to set hw.ipmi.wd_startup_countdown to activate it. More complicated logic may be possible, but the ipmi driver has no clue if watchdogd is enabled, so I'm not sure I see a path forward to automatically doing the right thing with sensible defaults. Have I overlooked something?
