When running a command like 'chrt -f 50 dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null', the watchdog_worker fails to service the HW watchdog and the HW watchdog fires long before the watchdog soft timeout. At the moment, the watchdog_worker is invoked as a delayed work. Delayed works are handled by non realtime kernel threads. The WQ_HIGHPRI flag only increases the niceness of that threads. This patch replaces the delayed work logic by kthread delayed work, and sets the associated kernel task to SCHED_FIFO with the highest priority, in order to ensure that the watchdog worker will run as soon as possible.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
