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.

-I, --noident

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

output arrangement is specified, then a default set is used. Use
--help to get list of all supported columns.
-O, --oneline
Print all wanted information on one line in key="value" output
format.
