+* SBSA (Server Base System Architecture) Generic Watchdog
+
+The SBSA Generic Watchdog Timer is used to force a reset of the system
+after two stages of timeout have elapsed. A detailed definition of the
+watchdog timer can be found in the ARM document: ARM-DEN-0029 - Server
+Base System Architecture (SBSA)
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Should at least contain "arm,sbsa-gwdt".
+
+- reg: Each entry specifies the base physical address of a register frame
+ and the length of that frame; currently, two frames must be defined,
+ in this order:
+ 1: Watchdog control frame;
+ 2: Refresh frame.
+
+- interrupts: Should contain the Watchdog Signal 0 (WS0) SPI (Shared
+ Peripheral Interrupt) number of SBSA Generic Watchdog.
+
+Optional properties
+- timeout-sec: Watchdog timeout values (in seconds).
+
+Example for FVP Foundation Model v8:
+
+watchdog@2a440000 {
+ compatible = "arm,sbsa-gwdt";
+ reg = <0x0 0x2a440000 0 0x1000>,
+ <0x0 0x2a450000 0 0x1000>;
+ interrupts = <0 27 4>;
+ timeout-sec = <30>;
+};
