Hi Hans! I’ve not been following this too closely, so forgive me if the question is a bit naive. Since the sysupgrade process involves replacing procd now, would the watchdog need to be stopped as procd exits so that the hardware doesn’t reset itself during a particularly length update? Let’s say you have a large FLASH with slow write times… that could take a long time and I don’t want a hardware watchdog thinking that the system has hung… Thanks, -Philip _______________________________________________ Lede-dev mailing list Lede-dev@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/lede-dev
