  Hi,
  There are a couple of options in the BIOS. There is a reboot the box if the
  bios does not post within 6min as well as Fire the watchdog if the dog 
  has not
  been patted after 5,10 or 15min after the BIOS post.   I tried all 
  combinations
  without luck. If I have the reboot after x min post post, the box will 
  reboot
  on its own.
 
 I'd guess that this kind of option would enable OS use of the watchdog.
 Perhaps you can contact Intel about this issue, either via their official
 support service or via jfv (who is CCed as I see) or both.

Most likely these options are for the watchdog in the BMC that IPMI manages
rather than the watchdog in the ICH.

2010-08-30 Thread Mike Tancsa

Hi Jack,
I was trying to see if your recent commits for the ichwd IDs 
now work with the integrated watchdog for my i5 boards, but no luck.


ichsmb0: Intel PCH SMBus controller port 0x3000-0x301f mem 
0xb1b23000-0xb1b230ff irq 18 at device 31.3 on pci0

ichsmb0: [ITHREAD]
smbus0: System Management Bus on ichsmb0
ichwd0: Intel 3420 watchdog timer on isa0
ichwd0: ICH WDT present but disabled in BIOS or hardware
device_attach: ichwd0 attach returned 6
ppc0: parallel port not found.

This is an actual Intel server MB (INTEL  S3420GPC) and the WD is 
enabled in the bios.  Are you able to actually get it to work on this board ?

My guess is that your motherboard provided another watchdog (like
Winbond based super I/O chips) which requires a driver, you can try this
one if you wish:

I've no idea about your ichwd issue though.

Hi,
Thanks for the link!  I had a look on Intel's site and didnt find 
anything specifically mentioning the type of watchdog.  This is an 
actual intel branded board and not supermicro.


No luck with the driver. However, I will give it a try on some of the 
MBs that do have Winbond WDs. A long time ago I hacked together one 
for the 83697
