* Add MODULE_ALIAS_MISCDEV(WATCHDOG_MINOR); * Add mandatory WDIOC_GETSTATUS and WDIOC_GETBOOTSTATUS ioctl's. * If unknown ioctl is used we should return -ENOTTY. * All watchdog device drivers are VFSs (Virtual File Systems). We thus return a nonseekable_open(inode, file) when we open the VFS. * Make sure that /dev/watchdog can be opened by 1 parent * Add spin-locking to prevent that forked children can disturb each other's operations.
