The Xilinx watchdog timer/timebase component supports the Xilinx legacy watchdog timer/timebase and window watchdog timer hardware. More detailed description of the driver operation for each function can be found in the xwdttb.c file.

Initialization & Configuration

The XWdtTb_Config structure is used by the driver to configure itself. Fields inside this structure are properties of XWdtTb based on its hardware build.

To support multiple runtime loading and initialization strategies employed by various operating systems, the driver instance can be initialized in the following way:

XWdtTb_CfgInitialize(InstancePtr, Config, BaseAddr) - Uses a configuration structure provided by the caller. If running in a system with address translation, the parameter EffectiveAddr should be the virtual address.

The Xilinx watchdog timer/timebase driver supports both legacy and window features: Features in legacy watchdog timer:

Polled mode
enabling and disabling (if allowed by the hardware) the watchdog timer
restarting the watchdog.
reading the timebase.

Features in window watchdog timer:

Configurable close and open window periods.
Enabling and disabling Fail Counter (FC).
Enabling and disabling Program Sequence Monitor (PSM).
Enabling and disabling Second Sequence Timer (SST).
Setting interrupt assertion point in second window.
Controlling the write access to the complete address space.
Always enable.

The window watchdog timer always enable feature enables watchdog timer forever. It can only be disabled by applying the reset to the processor or core.

It is the responsibility of the application to provide an interrupt handler for the timebase and the watchdog and connect them to the interrupt system if interrupt driven mode is desired.

The legacy watchdog timer/timebase component ALWAYS generates an interrupt output when:

the watchdog expires the first time
the timebase rolls over and ALWAYS generates a reset output when the watchdog timer expires a second time. This is not configurable in any way from the software driver's perspective.

The window watchdog timer asserts an interrupt when

the watchdog reaches at the interrupt programmed point in second window and ALWAYS generates reset output
when single bad event occur if fail count disable,
if fail counter is 7 and bad event happens.

The Timebase is reset to 0 when the Watchdog Timer is enabled.

If the hardware interrupt signal is not connected, polled mode is the only option (using IsWdtExpired) for the legacy watchdog and GetIntrStatus option for the window watchdog. Reset output will occur for the second watchdog timeout regardless. Polled mode for the timebase rollover is just reading the contents of the register and seeing if the MSB has transitioned from 1 to 0.

The IsWdtExpired function is used for polling the watchdog timebase timer and it is also used to check if the watchdog was the cause of the last reset. In this situation, call Initialize then call IsWdtExpired. If the result is true watchdog timeout caused the last system reset. It is then acceptable to further initialize the component which will reset this bit.

The XWdtTb_GetIntrStatus is used for polling the window watchdog timer and it is used to check if interrupt programmed point has reached.

This driver is intended to be RTOS and processor independent. It works with physical addresses only. Any needs for dynamic memory management, threads or thread mutual exclusion, virtual memory, or cache control must be satisfied by the layer above this driver.
