69472ffa65 watchdog/pseries-wdt: initial support for H_WATCHDOG-based watchdog timers
PAPR v2.12 defines a new hypercall, H_WATCHDOG.  The hypercall permits
guest control of one or more virtual watchdog timers.  The timers have
millisecond granularity.  The guest is terminated when a timer
expires.

This patch adds a watchdog driver for these timers, "pseries-wdt".

pseries_wdt_probe() currently assumes the existence of only one
platform device and always assigns it watchdogNumber 1.  If we ever
expose more than one timer to userspace we will need to devise a way
to assign a distinct watchdogNumber to each platform device at device
registration time.

cef9572e9a watchdog: add support for adjusting last known HW keepalive time
Certain watchdogs require the watchdog only to be pinged within a
specific time window, pinging too early or too late cause the watchdog
to fire. In cases where this sort of watchdog has been started before
kernel comes up, we must adjust the watchdog keepalive window to match
the actually running timer, so add a new driver API for this purpose.

d51d3852d1 docs: watchdog: codify ident.options as superset of possible status flags
The FIXME comment has been in-tree since the very first git commit.
The described behavior has been since relied on by some userspace, e.g.
the util-linux wdctl command and has been ignored by some kernelspace,
like the f71808e_wdt driver.

The functionality is useful to have to be able to differentiate between a
driver that doesn't support WDIOF_CARDRESET and one that does, but hasn't
had a watchdog reset, thus drop the FIXME to encourage drivers adopting
this convention.

113094f743 docs: add some directories to the main documentation index
The contents of those directories were orphaned at the documentation
body.

While those directories could likely be moved to be inside some guide,
I'm opting to just adding their indexes to the main one, removing the
:orphan: and adding the SPDX header.

For the drivers, the rationale is that the documentation contains
a mix of Kernelspace, uAPI and admin-guide. So, better to keep them on
separate directories, as we've be doing with similar subsystem-specific
docs that were not split yet.

For the others, well... I'm too lazy to do the move. Also, it
seems to make sense to keep at least some of those at the main
dir (like kbuild, for example). In any case, a latter patch
could do the move.

487e4e0822 watchdog: introduce CONFIG_WATCHDOG_OPEN_TIMEOUT
This allows setting a default value for the watchdog.open_timeout
commandline parameter via Kconfig.

Some BSPs allow remote updating of the kernel image and root file
system, but updating the bootloader requires physical access. Hence, if
one has a firmware update that requires relaxing the
watchdog.open_timeout a little, the value used must be baked into the
kernel image itself and cannot come from the u-boot environment via the
kernel command line.

Being able to set the initial value in .config doesn't change the fact
that the value on the command line, if present, takes precedence, and is
of course immensely useful for development purposes while one has
console acccess, as well as usable in the cases where one can make a
permanent update of the kernel command line.

4d1c6a0ec2 watchdog: introduce watchdog.open_timeout commandline parameter
The watchdog framework takes care of feeding a hardware watchdog until
userspace opens /dev/watchdogN. If that never happens for some reason
(buggy init script, corrupt root filesystem or whatnot) but the kernel
itself is fine, the machine stays up indefinitely. This patch allows
setting an upper limit for how long the kernel will take care of the
watchdog, thus ensuring that the watchdog will eventually reset the
machine.

A value of 0 (the default) means infinite timeout, preserving the
current behaviour.

This is particularly useful for embedded devices where some fallback
logic is implemented in the bootloader (e.g., use a different root
partition, boot from network, ...).

There is already handle_boot_enabled serving a similar purpose. However,
such a binary choice is unsuitable if the hardware watchdog cannot be
programmed by the bootloader to provide a timeout long enough for
userspace to get up and running. Many of the embedded devices we see use
external (gpio-triggered) watchdogs with a fixed timeout of the order of
1-2 seconds.

The open timeout only applies for the first open from
userspace. Should userspace need to close the watchdog device, with
the intention of re-opening it shortly, the application can emulate
the open timeout feature by combining the nowayout feature with an
appropriate WDIOC_SETTIMEOUT immediately prior to closing the device.

1fccb73011 iTCO_wdt: all versions count down twice
The ICH9 is listed as having TCO v2, and indeed the behavior in the
datasheet corresponds to v2 (for example the NO_REBOOT flag is
accessible via the 16KiB-aligned Root Complex Base Address).

However, the TCO counts twice just like in v1; the documentation
of the SECOND_TO_STS bit says: "ICH9 sets this bit to 1 to indicate
that the TIMEOUT bit had been (or is currently) set and a second
timeout occurred before the TCO_RLD register was written. If this
bit is set and the NO_REBOOT config bit is 0, then the ICH9 will
reboot the system after the second timeout.  The same can be found
in the BayTrail (Atom E3800) datasheet, and even HOWTOs around
the Internet say that it will reboot after _twice_ the specified
heartbeat.

I did not find the Apollo Lake datasheet, but because v4/v5 has
a SECOND_TO_STS bit just like the previous version I'm enabling
this for Apollo Lake as well.

bb292ac1c6 watchdog: Introduce watchdog_stop_on_unregister helper
Many watchdog drivers explicitly stop the watchdog when unregistering it.
While it is unclear if this is actually needed (the whatdog should not be
running at that time if it can be stopped), introduce a helper to
explicitly stop the watchdog in the watchdog core when unregistering it.
This helps reducing driver code size while retaining functionality.

ff84136cb6 watchdog: add watchdog pretimeout governor framework
The change adds a simple watchdog pretimeout framework infrastructure,
its purpose is to allow users to select a desired handling of watchdog
pretimeout events, which may be generated by some watchdog devices.

A user selects a default watchdog pretimeout governor during
compilation stage.

Watchdogs with WDIOF_PRETIMEOUT capability now have one more device
attribute in sysfs, pretimeout_governor attribute is intended to display
the selected watchdog pretimeout governor.

The framework has no impact at runtime on watchdog devices with no
WDIOF_PRETIMEOUT capability set.

9dd8d5f870 Documentation/watchdog: check return value for magic close
A recent commit added a write to the watchdog test code for doing the "magic
close", but that caused a compile-time warning:

Documentation/watchdog/src/watchdog-test.c: In function ‘main’:
Documentation/watchdog/src/watchdog-test.c:94:5: warning: ignoring return value of ‘write’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Wunused-result]

This changes the code to print a runtime warning if the write fails.

90b826f17a watchdog: Implement status function in watchdog core
Up to now, the watchdog status function called a driver function,
which was supposed to return the watchdog status. All but one
driver using the watchdog core did not implement this function,
and the driver implementing it did not implement it correctly
(the function is supposed to return WDIOF_ flags). At the same time,
at least some of the status information can be provided by the watchdog
core.

Provide the available status bits directly from the watchdog driver core.
Call the driver status function if it exists to get the boot status, but
always provide WDIOF_MAGICCLOSE and WDIOF_KEEPALIVEPING internally.
This patch makes the 'status' sysfs attribute always available.
This attribute is now displayed as hex number with 0x prepended to be
easier to decode.

Also display a dot for every ping of the watchdog, so that the user
