What boards did you test this on?  What driver are you using for the
watchdog?

Please just move the #endif for the #if 0 up instead of putting a C++
style comment here.

Please leave this wrapped in CONFIG_BOOKE_WDT.  I don't agree with
unconditionally enabling this for every 405 chip out there.

Pretty sure you meant || here?  Thought if you just enable the existing
config option, I don't think you'd need to edit this file at all.

Tested on a 405F6 core (Xilinx's variant), the board is custom, and
the control for the watchdog SPRs was bundled into a watchdog driver
for the board's watchdog controller.

What are you concerned with? If some core varient does not put a
watchdog there, then you still get a panic from the default watchdog
exception handler..

Yes, I didn't want to use BOOKE_WDT because I have not tested that
driver, nor do I want that driver included in my kernel.. I think the
watchdog driver in use should be orthogonal to having the exception
wired in?

I'm concerned with the fact that you've moved PIT and now enabled
something that's been enabled for years.  There's no need to do it like
that.

And it certainly can be.  Just make the driver a module and don't
install it or load it.  The #ifdef will still evaluate to true.

Well, just moving the ifdef still keeps the PIT change, and either the
vector is never called and it is harmless to add the new entry point,
or CPUs have been randomly calling into DTLBMiss for years, which
seems worth discovering.

FWIW, this patch has been carried in our tree since about 2.6.14,
mind you we only use two 405 varients.

Well, we use non-modular kernels, but I can certainly patch the driver
out.

If I resend using BOOKE_WDT will you take it?

Thanks,

Looks like you indeed have no choice but move it down, though I dislike
the label name :-)

Look at how we do a similar thing in exceptions-64.S, we basically just
don't use START_EXCEPTION at that location. We put a .=xxxx and a
branch, and use the real exception name at the target label.

Or just name it "pit_exception" if you want to keep things simple. I
just don't like "pit_longer" :-)

Any reason to comment that out ? Better off also branching out of line
to a stub similar to the PIT one that then calls unknown_exception. That
way if it triggers by accident, you'll get a clean trace.

Move it out of line too please. When a given vector "slot" gets crowded,
I prefer moving everything in it out of line to keep things consistent.
