Currently the watchdog core does not initialize the last_hw_keepalive

immediately if enough time has passed from the system boot-up time, and
some types of watchdogs like K3 RTI does not like this.

To avoid the issue, setup the last_hw_keepalive time during watchdog

is called when watchdog device is removed. This also makes handling of
the reboot notifier unified with the handling of the restart handler,
which is freed with unregister_restart_handler() in the same place.

watchdog: make nowayout sysfs file writable

It can be useful to delay setting the nowayout feature for a watchdog
device. Moreover, not every driver (notably gpio_wdt) implements a
nowayout module parameter/otherwise respects CONFIG_WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT,
and modifying those drivers carries a risk of causing a regression for
someone who has two watchdog devices, sets CONFIG_WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT
and somehow relies on the gpio_wdt driver being ignorant of
that (i.e., allowing one to gracefully close a gpio_wdt but not the
other watchdog in the system).

So instead, simply make the nowayout sysfs file writable. Obviously,
setting nowayout is a one-way street.

watchdog: prevent deferral of watchdogd wakeup on RT

When PREEMPT_RT is enabled, all hrtimer expiry functions are
deferred for execution into the context of ksoftirqd unless otherwise
annotated.

Deferring the expiry of the hrtimer used by the watchdog core, however,
is a waste, as the callback does nothing but queue a kthread work item
and wakeup watchdogd.

It's worst then that, too: the deferral through ksoftirqd also means
that for correct behavior a user must adjust the scheduling parameters
of both watchdogd _and_ ksoftirqd, which is unnecessary and has other
side effects (like causing unrelated expiry functions to execute at
potentially elevated priority).

Instead, mark the hrtimer used by the watchdog core as being _HARD to
allow it's execution directly from hardirq context. The work done in
this expiry function is well-bounded and minimal.

A user still must adjust the scheduling parameters of the watchdogd
to be correct w.r.t. their application needs.

This is a common issue when using cdev embedded in a struct.
Fortunately, we already have a mechanism to solve this kind of issue.
Please see commit 233ed09d7fda ("chardev: add helper function to
register char devs with a struct device") for more detail.

In this patch, we choose to embed the struct device into the
watchdog_core_data, and use the API provided by the commit 233ed09d7fda
to make sure that the release of watchdog_core_data and cdev are
in sequence.

compat_ioctl: move WDIOC handling into wdt drivers

All watchdog drivers implement the same set of ioctl commands, and
fortunately all of them are compatible between 32-bit and 64-bit
architectures.

Modern drivers always go through drivers/watchdog/wdt.c as an abstraction
layer, but older ones implement their own file_operations on a character
device for this.

Move the handling from fs/compat_ioctl.c into the individual drivers.

Note that most of the legacy drivers will never be used on 64-bit
hardware, because they are for an old 32-bit SoC implementation, but
doing them all at once is safer than trying to guess which ones do
or do not need the compat_ioctl handling.

watchdog: make the device time out at open_deadline when open_timeout is used

When the watchdog device is not open by userspace, the kernel takes
care of pinging it. When the open_timeout feature is in use, we should
ensure that the hardware fires close to open_timeout seconds after the
kernel has assumed responsibility for the device.

To do this, simply reuse the logic that is already in place for
ensuring the same thing when userspace is responsible for regularly
pinging the device:

- When watchdog_active(wdd), this patch doesn't change anything.

- When !watchdog_active(wdd), the "virtual timeout" should be taken to
be ->open_deadline". When the open_timeout feature is not used or the
device has been opened at least once, ->open_deadline is KTIME_MAX,
and the arithmetic ends up returning keepalive_interval as we used to.

This has been tested on a Wandboard with various combinations of
open_timeout and timeout-sec properties for the on-board watchdog by
booting with 'init=/bin/sh', timestamping the lines on the serial
console, and comparing the timestamp of the 'imx2-wdt 20bc000.wdog:
timeout nnn sec' line with the timestamp of the 'U-Boot SPL ...'
line (which appears just after reset).

watchdog: introduce CONFIG_WATCHDOG_OPEN_TIMEOUT

This allows setting a default value for the watchdog.open_timeout
commandline parameter via Kconfig.

Some BSPs allow remote updating of the kernel image and root file
system, but updating the bootloader requires physical access. Hence, if
one has a firmware update that requires relaxing the
watchdog.open_timeout a little, the value used must be baked into the
kernel image itself and cannot come from the u-boot environment via the
kernel command line.

Being able to set the initial value in .config doesn't change the fact
that the value on the command line, if present, takes precedence, and is
of course immensely useful for development purposes while one has
console acccess, as well as usable in the cases where one can make a
permanent update of the kernel command line.

watchdog: introduce watchdog.open_timeout commandline parameter

The watchdog framework takes care of feeding a hardware watchdog until
userspace opens /dev/watchdogN. If that never happens for some reason
(buggy init script, corrupt root filesystem or whatnot) but the kernel
itself is fine, the machine stays up indefinitely. This patch allows
setting an upper limit for how long the kernel will take care of the
watchdog, thus ensuring that the watchdog will eventually reset the
machine.

A value of 0 (the default) means infinite timeout, preserving the
current behaviour.

This is particularly useful for embedded devices where some fallback
logic is implemented in the bootloader (e.g., use a different root
partition, boot from network, ...).

There is already handle_boot_enabled serving a similar purpose. However,
such a binary choice is unsuitable if the hardware watchdog cannot be
programmed by the bootloader to provide a timeout long enough for
userspace to get up and running. Many of the embedded devices we see use
external (gpio-triggered) watchdogs with a fixed timeout of the order of
1-2 seconds.

The open timeout only applies for the first open from
userspace. Should userspace need to close the watchdog device, with
the intention of re-opening it shortly, the application can emulate
the open timeout feature by combining the nowayout feature with an
appropriate WDIOC_SETTIMEOUT immediately prior to closing the device.

Using scripts/coccinelle/api/stream_open.cocci added in 10dce8af3422
("fs: stream_open - opener for stream-like files so that read and write
can run simultaneously without deadlock"), search and convert to
stream_open all in-kernel nonseekable_open users for which read and
write actually do not depend on ppos and where there is no other methods
in file_operations which assume @offset access.

I've verified each generated change manually - that it is correct to convert -
and each other nonseekable_open instance left - that it is either not correct
to convert there, or that it is not converted due to current stream_open.cocci
limitations. The script also does not convert files that should be valid to
convert, but that currently have .llseek = noop_llseek or generic_file_llseek
for unknown reason despite file being opened with nonseekable_open (e.g.
drivers/input/mousedev.c)

Among cases converted 14 were potentially vulnerable to read vs write deadlock
(see details in 10dce8af3422):

One can also recheck/review the patch via generating it with explanation comments included via

$ make coccicheck MODE=patch COCCI=scripts/coccinelle/api/stream_open.cocci SPFLAGS="-D explain"

(*) This second group also contains cases with read/write deadlocks that
stream_open.cocci don't yet detect, but which are still valid to convert to
stream_open since ppos is not used. For example drivers/pci/switch/switchtec.c
calls wait_for_completion_interruptible() in its .read, but stream_open.cocci
currently detects only "wait_event*" as blocking.

watchdog: core: make sure the watchdog_worker is not deferred

commit 4cd13c21b207e ("softirq: Let ksoftirqd do its job") has the
effect of deferring timer handling in case of high CPU load, hence
delaying the delayed work allthought the worker is running which
high realtime priority.

As hrtimers are not managed by softirqs, this patch replaces the
delayed work by a plain work and uses an hrtimer to schedule that work.

watchdog: core: make sure the watchdog worker always works

When running a command like 'chrt -f 50 dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null',
the watchdog_worker fails to service the HW watchdog and the
HW watchdog fires long before the watchdog soft timeout.

At the moment, the watchdog_worker is invoked as a delayed work.
Delayed works are handled by non realtime kernel threads. The
WQ_HIGHPRI flag only increases the niceness of that threads.

This patch replaces the delayed work logic by kthread delayed work,
and sets the associated kernel task to SCHED_FIFO with the highest
priority, in order to ensure that the watchdog worker will run as
soon as possible.

watchdog: Fix kref imbalance seen if handle_boot_enabled=0

If handle_boot_enabled is set to 0, the watchdog driver module use
counter will not be increased and kref_get() will not be called when
registering the watchdog. Subsequently, on open, this does not happen
either because the code believes that it was already done because the
hardware watchdog is marked as running.

We could introduce a state variable to indicate this state, but let's
just increase the module use counter and call kref_get() unconditionally
if the hardware watchdog is running when a driver is registering itself
to keep the code simple.

watchdog: Fix potential kref imbalance when opening watchdog

If a watchdog driver's open function sets WDOG_HW_RUNNING with the
expectation that the watchdog can not be stopped, but then stops the
watchdog anyway in its stop function, kref_get() wil not be called in
watchdog_open(). If the watchdog then stops on close, WDOG_HW_RUNNING
will be cleared and kref_put() will be called, causing a kref imbalance.
As result the character device data structure will be released, which in
turn will cause the system to crash on the next call to watchdog_open().

watchdog: core: add option to avoid early handling of watchdog

On some systems its desirable to have watchdog reboot the system
when it does not come up fast enough. This adds a kernel parameter
to disable the auto-update of watchdog before userspace takes over
and a kernel option to set the default. The info messages were
added to shorten error searching on misconfigured systems.

watchdog: Introduce watchdog_stop_on_unregister helper

Many watchdog drivers explicitly stop the watchdog when unregistering it.
While it is unclear if this is actually needed (the whatdog should not be
running at that time if it can be stopped), introduce a helper to
explicitly stop the watchdog in the watchdog core when unregistering it.
This helps reducing driver code size while retaining functionality.

watchdog: pretimeout: add option to select a pretimeout governor in runtime

The change converts watchdog device attribute "pretimeout_governor" from
read-only to read-write type to allow users to select a desirable
watchdog pretimeout governor in runtime, e.g.

% echo -n panic > /sys/..../watchdog/watchdog0/pretimeout

To get this working a list of registered pretimeout governors is created
and a new helper function watchdog_pretimeout_governor_set() is exported
to watchdog_dev.c.

If a selected governor is gone, a watchdog device pretimeout notification
is delegated to a default built-in pretimeout governor.
