poking around in watchdog support for the first time, and i see
these special device files:

  crw-------. 1 root root  10, 130 Oct 15 04:55 /dev/watchdog
  crw-------. 1 root root 250,   0 Oct 15 04:55 /dev/watchdog0

can someone tell me what part of the boot process creates those
special files?

  i've yet to install the "watchdog" package, so there's no
user space watchdog daemon running yet. i do see the kernel threads:

root        13     2  0 04:55 ?        00:00:00 [watchdog/0]
root        16     2  0 04:55 ?        00:00:00 [watchdog/1]
root        24     2  0 04:55 ?        00:00:00 [watchdog/2]
root        32     2  0 04:55 ?        00:00:00 [watchdog/3]
root        40     2  0 04:55 ?        00:00:00 [watchdog/4]
root        48     2  0 04:55 ?        00:00:00 [watchdog/5]
root        56     2  0 04:55 ?        00:00:00 [watchdog/6]
root        64     2  0 04:55 ?        00:00:00 [watchdog/7]
root        85     2  0 04:55 ?        00:00:00 [watchdogd]

so i was assuming maybe a udev entry was creating them, but i don't
see it. still reading the docs so i'm sure i'll run across it
eventually, but would be nice if i knew who was responsible for
creating them. thanks.
