wiz 003523496e Add -x to usage. 2006-08-13 23:24:53 +00:00
wiz 85d38d942b Bump date for new -x. 2006-08-13 23:23:30 +00:00
dyoung a79c18d72f Add a flag to wdogctl(8), -x, that activates a user-mode timer that
is NOT disarmed when wdogctl closes the watchdog device.  The -x
mode protects against the case where the kernel kills wdogctl,
sshd, and other essential userland programs (due to memory exhaustion,
for example), lobotomizing a mission-critical NetBSD system and
necessitating an operator visit to reboot it.

dyoung fab0410101 If ioctl(,WDOGIOC_SMODE,) fails, kill the child process before
killing self, instead of the other way around.

Fixes a bug where the child process would use 100% CPU spinning
while it waited for its parent to arm a non-existent watchdog timer.
Now, the child process gets killed, as was intended.

wiz d68085a6b6 "-offset indent" is fine for option lists -- re-add it,
backing out previous. jmmv does not disagree.

smb ddd2ade252 Add a software watchdog timer facility. Because this slightly
changes the "tickle" model of wdogctl(8), it was modified as well;
while I was in there, I cleaned up the argument parsing.

The code was reviewed by simonb@.

jmmv b635f565e7 Homogenize usage messages: make the 'usage' word all lowercase, as this seems
to be the most common practice in our tree.

thorpej 1384fef106 Note that not all watchdog timers can be disarmed once armed, and that
when such a case is encountered, an error message will be displayed and
the timer will remain armed if an attempt to disarm it is made.
