Subject: [PATCH] doc: watchdog simple example: don't fail on fsync()
Date: Mon, 22 Mar 2010 13:22:37 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1269260557-18150-1-git-send-email-me@mortis.eu> (raw)

Don't terminate the watchdog daemon when fsync() fails because no
watchdog driver actually implements the fsync() syscall.
