=============
NPCM Watchdog
=============

The NPCM watchdog driver can report reset-cause information on
``nuvoton,npcm750-wdt`` and ``nuvoton,npcm845-wdt`` systems.

Userspace can read the latched reset cause through
``WDIOC_GETBOOTSTATUS``. When ``CONFIG_WATCHDOG_SYSFS`` is enabled, the
same value is also visible through ``/sys/class/watchdog/watchdogN/bootstatus``.

The mapping is fixed in the driver. It exposes the SoC reset indications
through the generic watchdog bootstatus flags and is not configurable from
Device Tree.

``WDIOF_CARDRESET`` is reported only for the watchdog instance whose own
reset-status bit is latched. On systems with three watchdog instances, this
maps ``WD0RST``, ``WD1RST``, and ``WD2RST`` to ``watchdog0``, ``watchdog1``,
and ``watchdog2`` respectively.

The driver may report ``WDIOF_CARDRESET`` together with one or more of the
reset-cause flags listed above.

On NPCM750, the driver samples ``RESSR``. When reset bits are still latched,
it clears them and stores the sampled value in ``SCRPAD2`` so later watchdog
probes can report the same boot-time state.

On NPCM845, the driver samples ``INTCR2``. When reset bits are still latched,
it clears them and stores the sampled value in ``SCRPAD10`` so later watchdog
probes can report the same boot-time state.

The WPCM450 watchdog continues to operate without this reset-indication
mapping.
