int swtd_close(int fd)

Description:

Close the file handle.

Input :

int fd - the file handle from swtd_open() return value.

Output:

OK will be zero.

The other has some error, to get error code from errno().

4. Special Note

When you “kill the application with -9” or “kill without option” or “Ctrl+c” the kernel will
change to auto ack the sWatchDog.

When your application enables the sWatchDog and does not ack, your application may have a
logical error, or your application has made a core dump. The kernel will not change to auto
ack. This can cause a serious problem, causing your system to reboot again and again.

5. User application example

Example 1:

#include
#include
#include
#include

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int fd;

fd = swtd_open();
if ( fd < 0 ) {
printf(“Open sWatchDog device fail !\n”);
exit(1);
}
swtd_enable(fd, 5000); // enable it and set it 5 seconds
while ( 1 ) {
// do user application want to do
…..
….
swtd_ack(fd);
