The HiFive 1 rev b includes a watchdog module based on a 32-bit counter. The watchdog timer is in the always-on domain device of HiFive 1 rev b, so this patch added the AON device to the sifive_e machine. This patch only implemented the functionality of the watchdog timer, not all the functionality of the AON device.
You can test the patchset by the QTest tests/qtest/sifive-e-aon-watchdog-test.c Changes since v1 ( Thank Alistair for the feedback ): - Use the register field macro. - Delete the public create function. The board creates the aon device itself. - Keep all variable declarations at the top of the code block. Changes since v2 ( Thank Alistair for the feedback ): - Delete the declaration and definition of the create function. Changes since v3 ( Thank Alistair and Thomas for the feedback ): - Use `device_class_set_props()` for the properties in sifive_e_aon device. - Add SPDX identifier in QTEST. - Use libqtest.h in QTEST. - Let the statements on one line as long as they still fit into 80 columns. Changes since v4 ( Thank Phil for the feedback ): - Improve code style consistency. - Move the timer create function to the sifive_e_aon_init. - Allocate the sifive_e_aon device state in the SoC.
