The question is what default is. Because when I was adding support for Zynq/ZynqMP/Microblaze this logic is used there. I think that WDT should be there and if you think there are boards which want to have both we can cover that by Kconfig.
As mentioned above, I agree that it makes sense to start the watchdog automatically, if its enabled / selected via CONFIG_WDT. I suggest that I move forward with your suggested change, but it would be fair to Cc the maintainers of boards that have CONFIG_WDT set but CONFIG_WATCHDOG unset. Do you (or anyone else) know of a tool / script to detect such board configurations in U-Boot (one option set and another unset)?
good. Tom?
I've run a Travis job on all boards with an error added for this configuration (CONFIG_WDT set but CONFIG_WATCHDOG unset). Here the list of these boards with their maintainers:
taurus: Heiko Schocher hs@denx.de smartweb: Heiko Schocher hs@denx.de ast2500: Maxim Sloyko maxims@google.com picosam9g45: Erik van Luijk evanluijk@interact.nl mt7623n_bpir2: Ryder Lee ryder.lee@mediatek.com Weijie Gao weijie.gao@mediatek.com mt7629_rfb: Ryder Lee ryder.lee@mediatek.com Weijie Gao weijie.gao@mediatek.com bitmain_antminer_s9: Michal Simek monstr@monstr.eu
On this board disabling watchdog servicing was done by purpose.
And it will stay disabled even with the imply, as the defconfig currently disables CONFIG_WATCHDOG. So no change here.
yup
BTW: bitmain_antminer_s9_defconfig seems to be the only board that disables CONFIG_WATCHDOG.
Possible and that's the board I used for tuning this feature.
