Is there any interest in a kernel watchdog timer for corosync and, if so,
where should it be petted?
I did a simple test of killing the corosync 1.2.1 daemon in a pacemaker
configuration with shared storage.
Sure enough, the node is declared offline which presents a potential for
corruption.
I know that a stonith device should protect you, but it seems to me that a
watchdog timer would add another layer of protection.
A traditional place to pet the watchdog might be in the receive path,
assuming that there is some loopback message transmitted in regular
intervals.
