[PATCH 1/2] watchdog: add gpio watchdog driver

A rather common kind of external watchdog circuit is one that is kept alive by toggling a gpio. Add a driver for handling such a watchdog.
The compatible string is probably a little odd as it has nothing to do with linux per se - however, I chose that to make .dts snippets reusable between device trees used with U-Boot and linux, and this is the (only) compatible string that linux' corresponding driver and DT binding accepts. I have asked whether one should/could add "wdt-gpio" to that binding, but the answer was no:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAL_JsqKEGaFpiFV_oAtE+S_bnHkg4qry+bhx2EDs=NSbVf...
If someone feels strongly about this, I can certainly remove the "linux," part from the string - it probably wouldn't the only place where one can't reuse a DT snippet as-is between linux and U-Boot.

It seems that no other test has claimed gpio_a:7 yet, so use that.
The only small wrinkle is modifying the existing wdt test to use uclass_get_device_by_driver() since we now have to UCLASS_WDT instances in play, so it's a little more robust to fetch the device by driver and not merely uclass+index.

Support for external watchdog fed by toggling a gpio.
please add a bit more detail. How do you configure it? e.g. point to the binding file (which you should add to U-Boot if not there).
You mean add a reference to doc/device-tree-bindings/watchdog/gpio-wdt.txt which is added in the very same patch? I can do that.
No other config option in drivers/watchdog/Kconfig has that, but perhaps that's because there's no mention anywhere of wdt under doc/device-tree-bindings/. And more generally, very few Kconfig files have any such reference.
Well, the thing is....there is a patman warning about adding at least three lines of text to next Kconfig options. I think people should really sit and think for a few minutes about what useful information can be imparted, so users don't need to go to the source code to figure out basic details.
If you don't want to add a mention of the binding, perhaps you could mention that the pin needs to be toggled each xx ms otherwise the board will be reset? I'm not sure, but what you have provided gives me very little idea about how it works :-)

bool "External gpio watchdog support"
depends on WDT
depends on DM_GPIO
help
Support for external watchdog fed by toggling a gpio.
please add a bit more detail. How do you configure it? e.g. point to the binding file (which you should add to U-Boot if not there).
You mean add a reference to doc/device-tree-bindings/watchdog/gpio-wdt.txt which is added in the very same patch? I can do that.
No other config option in drivers/watchdog/Kconfig has that, but perhaps that's because there's no mention anywhere of wdt under doc/device-tree-bindings/. And more generally, very few Kconfig files have any such reference.
Well, the thing is....there is a patman warning about adding at least three lines of text to next Kconfig options. I think people should really sit and think for a few minutes about what useful information can be imparted, so users don't need to go to the source code to figure out basic details.
If you don't want to add a mention of the binding,
It's not that I don't want to, I was just pointing out that no other WDT drivers have that, nor a binding to refer to. I'll add a ref.
perhaps you could
mention that the pin needs to be toggled each xx ms otherwise the board will be reset?
Well, that part depends on which particular watchdog circuit the hardware guys have decided to put on the board - these are very generic components. I'll add the hw_margin_ms property to the .txt file.

The compatible string is probably a little odd as it has nothing to do with linux per se - however, I chose that to make .dts snippets reusable between device trees used with U-Boot and linux, and this is the (only) compatible string that linux' corresponding driver and DT binding accepts. I have asked whether one should/could add "wdt-gpio" to that binding, but the answer was no:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAL_JsqKEGaFpiFV_oAtE+S_bnHkg4qry+bhx2EDs=NSbVf...
If someone feels strongly about this, I can certainly remove the "linux," part from the string - it probably wouldn't the only place where one can't reuse a DT snippet as-is between linux and U-Boot.

I'm noticing that you don't have a "start" function. How is this GPIO watchdog enabled? Is it "always on"? Or does it start with the first triggering?
Perhaps it makes sense to add a note about this into the driver to make this clear.
Thanks, Stefan

I have yet to encounter one of these that isn't always-running - it's more or less the only reason one would add an external watchdog circuit instead of relying on whatever the SOC has.
Perhaps it makes sense to add a note about this into the driver to make this clear.
Will do. But I now see a much bigger problem due to some refactoring in wdt-uclass that basically requires a ->start method or GD_FLG_WDT_READY won't be set. Sigh.
I was actually hoping to get this small driver in first, then start doing the promised "handle _all_ registered watchdogs in wdt_uclass' watchdog_reset", because testing that is much easier once the sandbox test has two distinct "devices". I guess I'll just provide a dummy start method to work around that. Then when I equip wdt_uclass with some uclass-priv data that will contain not only the reset_period and last_reset metadata, but also keep track of whether the device is running (and then wdt_start() can be a no-op in that case, while the gpio driver can set that flag in its probe function).

Sounds very promising. Looking forward to your work on this.

Yes, I have a larger set of patches pending that includes these, but also the "handle all DM watchdogs in watchdog_reset()". Will send in the next few days.
