Please test and/or review a new watchdog driver for watchdog timer found in SB600 and SB7xx south bridges, and also for watchdog hardware advertised/described via WDRT ACPI table. A tar file with the source file and module Makefile: http://people.freebsd.org/~avg/amdsbwd.tgz A full diff of the new driver against head source tree: http://people.freebsd.org/~avg/amdsbwd.diff If you have the mentioned hardware or if your ACPI provides WDRT table, please try this driver. WDRT presence can be checked with this command: acpidump -t | fgrep WDRT I am interested in what the driver prints to dmesg with debug.bootverbose=1, if it succesfully attaches and, obviously, if the driver does its job (i.e. resets system on timeout). That could be tested, for example, in single user mode with this command: watchdog -t 4 Thanks! -- Andriy Gapon
