* Align the interfaces for the various watchdogs and make the interfacen_hibma2006-12-151-25/+69
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | behave as expected. Also: - Return an error if WD_PASSIVE is passed in to the ioctl as only WD_ACTIVE is implemented at the moment. See sys/watchdog.h for an explanation of the difference between WD_ACTIVE and WD_PASSIVE. - Remove the I_HAVE_TOTALLY_LOST_MY_SENSE_OF_HUMOR define. If you've lost your sense of humor, than don't add a define. Specific changes: i80321_wdog.c Don't roll your own passive watchdog tickle as this would defeat the purpose of an active (userland) watchdog tickle. ichwd.c / ipmi.c: WD_ACTIVE means active patting of the watchdog by a userland process, not whether the watchdog is active. See sys/watchdog.h. kern_clock.c: (software watchdog) Remove a check for WD_ACTIVE as this does not make sense here. This reverts r1.181.

This commit has two pieces. One half is the watchdog kernel code which lives primarily in hardclock() in sys/kern/kern_clock.c. The other half is a userland daemon which, when run, will keep the watchdog from firing while the userland is intact and functioning. Approved by: jeff (mentor)
