A software watchdog
The watchdog program writes to /dev/watchdog every ten seconds. If
the device is opened but not written to within a minute, the machine
will reboot. This feature is available when the kernel is built with
'software watchdog' support (standard in Debian kernels).
.
The ability to reboot will depend on the state of the machine
and interrupts.

Changes: watchdog (5.6-8~bpo50+1) lenny-backports; urgency=low
.
* Rebuild for lenny-backports.
.
watchdog (5.6-8) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Next try in getting the dependencies right, wd_keepalive is supposed to be
started as early as possible to cope with system that boot with the
watchdog device open and watchdog is supposed to be started as late as
possible to be able to monitor other process. For the very same reason
watchdog should be stopped very early before the other process stop.
.
watchdog (5.6-7) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Added rsyslog config option to watchdog.conf manpage, closes: #544671
.
watchdog (5.6-6) unstable; urgency=low
.
* wd_keepalive must not be started before portmap because /usr could be nfs
mounted. In the process of fixing this some more dependencies were added.
.
watchdog (5.6-5) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Fixed wd_keepalive init script LSB header to specify no stop level. Also
removed superfluous dependencies and old links, closes: #540390
* Also made sure that watchdog itself is stopped as early as possible. This
needs an insserv version that processes $all in stop lines. Bumped
* Standards-Version to 3.8.3 no changes needed.
.
watchdog (5.6-4) unstable; urgency=low
.
* wd_keepalive immediately terminates if no watchdog device is given,
therefore it cannot be stopped when starting watchdog. Make sure we do not
print an error in this case, closes: #533608
* Bumped Standards-Version to 3.8.2 no changes needed.
* Remove path specification from command in maintainer script.
.
watchdog (5.6-3) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Prevent usage of unset variable by applying upstream patch, closes: #530843
* Made initscript use lsb functions.
* Added status argument to init script.
.
watchdog (5.6-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Accept config lines with arbitrary length, closes: #529891
.
watchdog (5.6-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream version, closes: #517419
* Bumped Standards-Version to 3.8.1, no change needed.
* Added homepage field.
* Added watch file.
.
watchdog (5.5-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream version.
.
watchdog (5.4-11) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Updated Japanese debconf translation, closes: #512872
* Made init scripts cope with empty variable, closes: #514256
* Added upstream patch to prevent rare segfault on shutdown, closes: #514295
* Do not install stop links for wd_keepalive, closes: #506435, #506436
* Do not call init scripts from init scripts. Instead call
start-stop-daemon directly.
