[PATCH RFC 0/6] Add support to read the restart reason from IMEM
From: Kathiravan Thirumoorthy
Date: Tue Apr 08 2025 - 04:57:21 EST
In Qualcomm IPQ SoC, if the system is rebooted due to the watchdog
timeout, there is no way to identify it. Current approach of checking
the EXPIRED_STATUS in WDT_STS is not working.
To achieve this, if the system is rebooted due to watchdog timeout, the
information is captured in the IMEM by the bootloader (along with other
reason codes as well).
This series attempts to address this by adding the support to read the
IMEM and populate the information via bootstatus sysfs file. As of now,
we are handling only the non secure watchdog timeout reason.
