NAME
wdctl - show hardware watchdog status
SYNOPSIS
wdctl [options] [device...]
DESCRIPTION
Show hardware watchdog status. The default device is /dev/watchdog. If more than one
device is specified then the output is separated by one blank line.
If the device is already used or user has no permissions to read from the device, then
wdctl reads data from sysfs. In this case information about supported features (flags)
might be missing.
Note that the number of supported watchdog features is hardware specific.

-n, --noheadings
Do not print a header line for flags table.
-o, --output list

is specified, then a default set is used. Use --help to get list of all supported
columns.
-O, --oneline
