I think the gpio watchdog on some > systems has a similar low hardware timeout. While I'm going to try that for the RZ/A1, I have a question for you guys (or anyone else that has an opinion about end applications) If I were going to make a request to the chip designers to make the timeout longer for the next RZ/A chip, what would be a good max timeout for common Linux applications? Looking through the drivers in the watchdog directly, I see default timeouts of 20, 30, 60, and 120 seconds.
