selftests: watchdog: skip ping loop if WDIOF_KEEPALIVEPING not supported
Check if watchdog device supports WDIOF_KEEPALIVEPING option before entering keep_alive() ping test loop. Fix watchdog-test silently looping if ioctl based ping is not supported by the device. Exit from test in such case instead of getting stuck in loop executing failing keep_alive() watchdog_info: identity: m41t93 rtc Watchdog firmware_version: 0 Support/Status: Set timeout (in seconds) Support/Status: Watchdog triggers a management or other external alarm not a reboot Watchdog card disabled. Watchdog timeout set to 5 seconds. Watchdog ping rate set to 2 seconds. Watchdog card enabled. WDIOC_KEEPALIVE not supported by this device without this change Watchdog card disabled. Watchdog timeout set to 5 seconds. Watchdog ping rate set to 2 seconds. Watchdog card enabled. Watchdog Ticking Away! (Where test stuck here forver silently) Updated change log at commit time: Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250914152840.GA3047348@bhairav-test.ee.iitb.ac.in Fixes: d89d08ffd2c5 ("selftests: watchdog: Fix ioctl SET* error paths to take oneshot exit path") Signed-off-by: Akhilesh Patil <akhilesh@ee.iitb.ac.in> Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org>
