Some Renesas SoCs do not have a reset register and the only way to do a SW controlled reset is to use the watchdog timer. Additionally, since all the WDT timeout options are so quick, a system reset is about the only thing it's good for. For example, the longest WDT overflow you can get with a RZ/A1 (R7S72100) with its 8-bit wide counter is 125ms.
