From 1cac475eeb9f5c46c1b5ddb4ca79f531ad15e1c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kiszka Date: Sun, 1 Aug 2021 09:56:25 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] watchdog: Start watchdog in watchdog_set_last_hw_keepalive only if appropriate [ Upstream commit dbe80cf471f940db3063197b7adb1169f89be9ed ] We must not pet a running watchdog when handle_boot_enabled is off because this will kick off automatic triggering before userland is running, defeating the purpose of the handle_boot_enabled control. Furthermore, don't ping in case watchdog_set_last_hw_keepalive was called incorrectly when the hardware watchdog is actually not running.
