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_giA@mail.gmail.com/

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 fine to me. We share DT bindings with Linux anyway.

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.

Perhaps, though I don't tend to think of the two values a gpio can have
as true/false; it's more like an uint:1, so any integer type that can
represent 0 and 1 (i.e., any) would do. I don't really care either way.

OK, but I don't think that improves readability in such a tiny function
- and checkpatch didn't complain.

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 :-)

It's a U-Boot thing.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I'm looking through the pending watchdog patches right now. Do you plan
to send an updated version of this patchset soon (mostly updates to
documentation)?

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.

Thanks,

+GPIO watchdog timer
+
+Describes a simple watchdog timer which is reset by toggling a gpio.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible: must be "linux,wdt-gpio"
+- gpios: gpio to toggle when wdt driver reset method is called
+
+Example:
+
+	gpio-wdt {
+		gpios = <&gpio0 1 0>;
+		compatible = "linux,wdt-gpio";
