Did not see watchdog option in menuconfig or .dts file of Processor SDK, also no see in driver list.

The version using is: ti-processor-sdk-linux-am335x-evm-05.00.00.15

Please guide us how to config and use the watchdog.

Thanks.

Kemal,

Why not list watchdog in processor SDK kernel driver list?

Tony,

We use the standard Linux watchdog driver with very little to any modification. Therefore, there is nothing to add to the docs already provided by the kernel and referred to in the above post.

I can understand your point that we should probably list it for completeness. Thanks for the feedback.
