utzig edited a comment on issue #1299: [RFC] [NRF52] Remove uint64_t div in 
watchdog init
URL: https://github.com/apache/mynewt-core/pull/1299#issuecomment-408415181
 
 
   @mkiiskila @wes3 This is mostly a Proof of Concept, based on Marko's 
comments here: https://github.com/runtimeco/mcuboot/pull/322
   
   Some numbers, based on mcuboot loader:
   
   Without watchdog initialization linked in the size is `9660` bytes. With the 
current watchdog initialization it is `10568`. This amount is due to this code 
generated because of the `uint64_t` division:
   
   ```
   /* Convert msec timeout to counts of a 32768 crystal */                      
      
   expiration = ((uint64_t)expire_msecs * 32768) / 1000;                        
      
    85c:»··f44f 727a »·mov.w»··r2, #1000»··; 0x3e8                              
      
    860:»··2300      »·movs»···r3, #0                                           
      
    862:»··03c0      »·lsls»···r0, r0, #15                                      
      
    864:»··0c49      »·lsrs»···r1, r1, #17                                      
      
    866:»··f001 fdd9 »·bl»·241c <__aeabi_uldivmod>                              
      
   NRF_WDT->CRV = (uint32_t)expiration;
   ```
   
   With the updated code the size is `9860` bytes. I suppose the change would 
be less significant in a final firmware where `__aeabi_uldivmod` might be 
linked in anyway, so leaving this here for RFC only now!
