Subject: [PATCH 1/1] watchdog:improve w83627hf_wdt to timeout in minutes
Date: Sun, 24 Mar 2013 21:15:57 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1364184957-32386-1-git-send-email-tonychung00@gmail.com> (raw)
The current maximum of 255 seconds is insufficient.
For example, crash dump could take 5+ minutes.
