Review comment:
It seems like the bottom line is that you are setting up a timer that is
too short for the system to process properly using nxsig_timedwait(). There
should be protections in place to handle that case, but there are not.
You might consider using a wdog directly and not call nxsig_timedwait();
Perhaps that would set up the timer more quickly. But this is not a clean
solution.
Or this could be a timer resolution issue. What is the LSB resolution of
the system timer?
