Re: wdt_mpc8xx documentation

Whilst rummaging about the PPC development tree I came across the
Siemens/SGI/Denx watchdog driver for the mpc8xx. It references a man
page which so far I've not been able to find (man wdt_mpx8xx(4)) so I'm
a bit clueless about what the monitor chain code does.
In the top directory of the Linux source tree, type:

	man Documentation/man4/wdt_mpc8xx.4
It doesn't seem to relate to the generic watchdog_api.txt in the kernel
documentation (at least the defines don't seem to tie in with any of the
  ioctl options).
You are right; this watchdog driver provides  a  very  different  API
with a few pretty powerful options (like escalation strategies etc.)
Any help here appreciated.
Hope this helps.

Best regards,
