Hi list, the i.MX28 SoC has a nice "feature" which prevents the "intended" usage of its watchdog.
When the SoC is powered via its 5 V power supply input the watchdog triggers a simple system reset when it barks. But when the SoC is powered via the battery supply input only, the watchdog powers off the whole chip instead, because it resets the PMIC. But we are in luck: a register bit exists to select a system reset or power off for the battery powered case when the watchdog barks. It only defaults to the power off setting after reset. Should we re-program this bit to the system reset setting for all i.MX28 based system (e.g. in the i.MX28 generic part of Barebox) or better on a board by board base? jbe -- Pengutronix e.K. | Juergen Beisert | Linux Solutions for Science and Industry | http://www.pengutronix.de/ | _______________________________________________ barebox mailing list barebox@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/barebox
