watchdog: Collect hostboot dump when watchdog times out
The hostboot dump collection to be initiated by watchdog_timeout
is disabled by default. When watchdog times out, only error
message corresponding to watchdog timeout is logged. To enable
hostboot dump collection whenever watchdog times out, the meson
option 'hostboot-dump-collection' must be enabled.
Testing - with meson option 'hostboot-dump-collection' enabled:
Ran watchdog_timeout:
case-1: CurrentHostState - off, AutoReboot - false
- Verified PEL object was not created
- Verified hostboot dump was not created
- Verified the Host State changed to Quiesce
case-2: CurrentHostState - off, AutoReboot - true
- Verified PEL object was created
- Verified hostboot dump was not created
- Verified the Host State changed to Running
case-3: CurrentHostState - Running, AutoBoot - false
- Verified PEL object was not created
- Verified hostboot dump was not created
- Verified the Host State changed to Quiesce
case-4: CurrentHostState - Running, AutoBoot - true, default timeout = 300s
- Verified PEL object was created
- Verified hostboot dump was created
- Observed Host state moving to either Running or Quiesce
case-5: CurrentHostState - Running, AutoBoot - true, specified timeout = 5s
- Verified PEL object was created
- Verified hostboot dump was created
- Observed Host state moving to either Running or Quiesce
