Hardware supports changing the timeout value, however it only updates this during the next window (preload values are picked once user pings the watchdog.) > Second, handling min_hw_heartbeat_ms properly should really be implemented > in the watchdog core.

Yes, it all becomes bit complex if we let the bootloader configure the values freely. Current bootloader implementation does not do this, as it is mostly a copy of the kernel driver. However, I can modify the kernel driver to take all this into account, even if the code becomes a bit more complex due to this. -Tero -- Texas Instruments Finland Oy, Porkkalankatu 22, 00180 Helsinki.
