2013-11-17watchdog: Get rid of MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV statementsJean Delvare
I just can't find any value in MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(WATCHDOG_MINOR) and MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(TEMP_MINOR) statements. Either the device is enumerated and the driver already has a module alias (e.g. PCI, USB etc.) that will get the right driver loaded automatically. Or the device is not enumerated and loading its driver will lead to more or less intrusive hardware poking. Such hardware poking should be limited to a bare minimum, so the user should really decide which drivers should be tried and in what order. Trying them all in arbitrary order can't do any good. On top of that, loading that many drivers at once bloats the kernel log. Also many drivers will stay loaded afterward, bloating the output of "lsmod" and wasting memory. Some modules (cs5535_mfgpt which gets loaded as a dependency) can't even be unloaded! If defining char-major-10-130 is needed then it should happen in user-space.

2012-03-27watchdog: xen: don't clear is_active when xen_wdt_stop() failedJan Beulich
xen_wdt_release() shouldn't clear is_active even when the watchdog didn't get stopped (which by itself shouldn't happen, but let's return a proper error in this case rather than adding a BUG() upon hypercall failure).

2012-03-27watchdog: Use pr_<fmt> and pr_<level>Joe Perches
Use the current logging styles. Make sure all output has a prefix. Add missing newlines. Remove now unnecessary PFX, NAME, and miscellaneous other #defines. Coalesce formats. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be>
2011-03-15watchdog: Xen watchdog driverJan Beulich
While the hypervisor change adding SCHEDOP_watchdog support included a daemon to make use of the new functionality, having a kernel driver for /dev/watchdog so that user space code doesn't need to distinguish non-Xen and Xen seems to be preferable.
