--sdEQJo40s7ofW8iR Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Hey, I'm busy writing a Ziatech 5503 watchdog driver for FreeBSD (and porting all the watchdog stuff to DragonFly BSD) and Plan 9. For my driver, I have no way to identify that the system has the driver, so I wanted to make it conditional on options ZT5503 existing in the kernel configuration file. I have a couple of related questions: 1) Where in the tree should my zt5503wd.c file be placed? 2) Regarding watchdog.h; this device supports other times than those provided from between 250MS to 256S. Hope nobody minds this changing :). 3) To make sure I understand how this works: o The device is compiled in / loaded o watchdogd is used to tell the system to start the timer o I get a bunch of flags in my eventhandler function's 2nd argument that I can then use to write to my device's registers with the proper information The first and third questions are the most important, I think. --Devon --sdEQJo40s7ofW8iR Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFCOvxISkf3jVXOdl0RAhJgAJ9jfPZWGFcjRqKQIY2ISi2Wh+Q/OwCgoFGm XwP5SC5Wix/51xnOsW51qxk= =0b+w -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --sdEQJo40s7ofW8iR--
