Hi Alexander and Krzysztof,

hope I can reply to both questions here.

What is the condition the watchdog is suspended in WAIT mode? Is this specific
to SoC or platform or something else?



Sorry, what exactly do you mean by condition? When the property "fsl,suspend-in-wait" is set the watchdog is suspended in WAIT mode, so this is defined by the user. Didn't want to apply it for all the supported machines since there could be devices which depend on watchdog triggering in WAIT mode. We stumbled on this problem on imx6 devices, but the same bit (with the same description) is found on imx25, imx35, imx50/51/53, imx7 and imx8.

And what happens else? When it is not suspended in WAIT mode?


When you put the device in "freeze"/"Suspend-To-Idle" low-power mode the watchdog keeps running and triggers a reset after 128 seconds. So the maximum length the device can stay in this mode is limited to 128 seconds.

Hope this answers your questions.

Best regards,
Andrej
