Re: [PATCH][RFC] Proposal for a new watchdog interface using sysfs

Here my previous proposal for a new sysfs based watchdog interface
revised to:
* change watchdogs to be system devices instead of platform devices
* remove the redundant 'enable' callbacks/files
* change the start/stop/keepalive files to be write-only

I updated the patch to do meet the revised proposal, and also added
two dummy watchdog drivers just to show how the interface would be used
and what it looks like in sysfs with more then one watchdog.

--rusty

The following is a proposal for a new sysfs based watchdog interface
to be used as a replacement for the current char device w/ ioctl api
as described in Documentation/watchdog-api.txt.

Basically, with the help of some watchdog infrastructure code, we could make
each watchdog device register as a sys_device named watchdog, so for
every watchdog on the system there is a /sys/devices/sys/watchdogN/
directory created for it.

Inside each watchdog's device directory, we create a set of files
that coorisponds with the IOCTL's used by the existing watchdog drivers.

For example, the first watchdog device registered on the system would add
the following to sysfs ==>

[root@penguin2 root]# tree /sys/devices/sys/watchdog0/
/sys/devices/sys/watchdog0/
|-- bootstatus
|-- keepalive
|-- name
|-- nowayout
|-- power
|-- start
|-- statistics
|-- status
|-- stop
|-- temperature
|-- temppanic
`-- timeout

0 directories, 12 files
[root@penguin2 root]# ls -l /sys/devices/sys/watchdog0
total 0
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 13 02:38 bootstatus
--w------- 1 root root 4096 Feb 13 02:38 keepalive
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 13 02:38 name
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 13 02:38 nowayout
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 13 02:38 power
--w------- 1 root root 4096 Feb 13 02:38 start
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 13 02:38 statistics
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 13 02:38 status
--w------- 1 root root 4096 Feb 13 02:38 stop
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 13 02:38 temperature
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 13 02:38 temppanic
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 13 02:38 timeout

Where each these files to the following ==>

start (WO)
- store: starts watchdog count, input is ignored

stop (WO)
- store: stops watchdog count, passes input as a magic string
that a driver might use to determine if it watchdog
should really be stopped.

timeout (RW)
- store: expects an integer, changes timeout
- show: prints timeout

keepalive (WO)
- store: pings watchdog, ignores input

nowayout (RW)
- store: expects 0 or 1, changes nowayout flag
- show: prints nowayout boolean flag

status (RO)
- show: prints the current status value

bootstatus (RO)
- show: same as 'status', but valid for just after the last reboot.

temperature (RO)
- show: prints temperature in degrees farenheit

temppanic (RW)
- show: prints 0 or 1 to indicate if an overtemp triggers a panic
- store: expects 0 or 1 to disable or enable

* The 'statistics' file is an example of the device driver adding additional
files to it's device directory.

To keep each driver from having to reimplement all the sysfs code, I created
a simple infrastructure where each watchdog driver would only have to fill
in a structure with function pointers for the features the driver implements.

For example, a driver would have the following:

static struct wdt_ops dummy_ops = {
.start = dummy_start,
.stop = dummy_stop,
.keepalive = dummy_keepalive,
.get_timeout = dummy_get_timeout,
.set_timeout = dummy_set_timeout,
.get_nowayout = dummy_get_nowayout,
.set_nowayout = dummy_set_nowayout,
.get_status = dummy_get_status,
.get_caps = dummy_get_caps,
.get_bootstatus = dummy_get_bootstatus,
.get_temperature = dummy_get_temperature,
.get_temppanic = dummy_get_temppanic,
.set_temppanic = dummy_set_temppanic,
};
decl_wdt_device(dummy, dummy_ops, Dummy Watchdog Timer);

where wdt_ops and wdt_device are defined as:

struct wdt_device {
struct wdt_ops *ops;
struct sys_device dev;
};

struct wdt_ops {
int (*start)(struct wdt_device *);
int (*stop)(struct wdt_device *, const char *);
int (*keepalive)(struct wdt_device *);
int (*get_timeout)(struct wdt_device *, int *);
int (*set_timeout)(struct wdt_device *, int);
int (*get_nowayout)(struct wdt_device *, int *);
int (*set_nowayout)(struct wdt_device *, int);
int (*get_status)(struct wdt_device *, int *);
int (*get_caps)(struct wdt_device *, int *);
int (*get_bootstatus)(struct wdt_device *, int *);
int (*get_temperature)(struct wdt_device *, int *);
int (*get_temppanic)(struct wdt_device *, int *);
int (*set_temppanic)(struct wdt_device *, int);
};

The following patch adds the infrastructure to the 2.5.60 kernel.
I am also attaching a dummy watchdog driver file that uses this
infrastructure.

* NOTE: We could also add code to base.c that would enable one of the
registered watchdog devices to also be a misc char device using
the documented watchdog minor number without the driver doing
anything extra.
