[PATCH v3] watchdog: add driver for StreamLabs USB watchdog device

From: Alexey Klimov
Date: Fri Feb 17 2017 - 04:25:55 EST


This patch creates new driver that supports StreamLabs usb watchdog
device. This device plugs into 9-pin usb header and connects to
reset pin and reset button on common PC.

USB commands used to communicate with device were reverse
engineered using usbmon.

Signed-off-by: Alexey Klimov <klimov.linux@xxxxxxxxx>

Changes in v3:
-- coding style cleanups and rebase;
-- buffer is allocated with separate allocation;
-- adding comments about max/min limits;
-- rework start/stop commands implementation;
-- fix first if-check in probe() function;

+ This is the driver for the USB Watchdog dongle from StreamLabs.
+ If you correctly connect reset pins to motherboard Reset pin and
+ to Reset button then this device will simply watch your kernel to make
+ sure it doesn't freeze, and if it does, it reboots your computer
+ after a certain amount of time.

+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+ module will be called streamlabs_wdt.

+ Most people will say N. Say yes or M if you want to use such usb device.
