Watchdog timer drivers for AMD G series SoC's

amd-gseriessoc-wdt's Issues

no /dev/watchdog on APU1d & Ubuntu 12

Hi there,
I plan to use a hardware watchdog kicked from my application.

Device: PC Engines: APU1d see: http://www.pcengines.ch/apu1d.htm
OS: Ubuntu 12.04
Kernel: 3.2.0-23-generic

So the processor is a "AMD G series T40E" one, which i was trying to use with your code.

I changed the Makefile to compile on Ubuntu, compiled and loaded the module. But i don't get a /dev/watchdog device.

Makefile changed the path to the linux-headers:
KERNEL_SRC := "/lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build/"

There may be a additional problem with the code
Running make:
make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y

Output:
WARNING: /root/amd-gseriessoc-wdt-master/amd_wdt.o(.text+0x22b): Section mismatch in reference from the function amd_wdt_setupdevice() to the variable .devinit.rodata:amd_wdt_pci_tbl
The function amd_wdt_setupdevice() references
the variable __devinitconst amd_wdt_pci_tbl.
This is often because amd_wdt_setupdevice lacks a __devinitconst
annotation or the annotation of amd_wdt_pci_tbl is wrong.

Can you help me with this?
