Subject: [PATCH 2/9] watchdog: WatchDog Timer Driver Core - Add basic ioctl functionality
Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2011 20:16:33 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1311797800-2706-2-git-send-email-wim@iguana.be> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1311797800-2706-1-git-send-email-wim@iguana.be>
This part add's the basic ioctl functionality to the
WatchDog Timer Driver Core framework. The supported
ioctl call's are:
WDIOC_GETSUPPORT
WDIOC_GETSTATUS
WDIOC_GETBOOTSTATUS
