//config:	  The watchdog utility is used with hardware or software watchdog
//config:	  device drivers. It opens the specified watchdog device special file
//config:	  and periodically writes a magic character to the device. If the
//config:	  watchdog applet ever fails to write the magic character within a
//config:	  certain amount of time, the watchdog device assumes the system has
//config:	  hung, and will cause the hardware to reboot.
