[WATCHDOG] HP ProLiant WatchDog driver
Hp is providing a Hardware WatchDog Timer driver that will only work with the
specific HW Timer located in the HP ProLiant iLO 2 ASIC. The iLO 2 HW Timer
will generate a Non-maskable Interrupt (NMI) 9 seconds before physically
resetting the server, by removing power, so that the event can be logged to
the HP Integrated Management Log (IML), a Non-Volatile Random Access Memory
(NVRAM). The logging of the event is performed using the HP ProLiant ROM via
an Industry Standard access known as a BIOS Service Directory Entry.
