initialization of global variables in u-boot

[Tomek The Messenger <tomekthemessenger@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

As there is none u-boot mailing list anymore I will ask question here. Maybe someone will know answer.

I have two watchdogs in hardware. One is synopsys designware one (so standard u-boot global functions hw_watchdog_init and hw_watchdog_reset are implemented by open source synopsys designware driver. And I have second watchdog for which I implement my own driver and it bases on device tree model. Let's see at below code:

include/watchdog.h  (I added second config and modify macro WATCHDOG_RESET)

[code]

 extern void hw_watchdog_reset(void);
#if defined(CONFIG_DM_HW_WATCHDOG)
     extern void dm_hw_watchdog_reset(void);
#define WATCHDOG_RESET() {hw_watchdog_reset();      dm_hw_watchdog_reset();}
#else
#define WATCHDOG_RESET hw_watchdog_reset
#endif

[/code]

implementation of dm_hw_watchdog_reset function:

[code]

#ifndef CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
struct udevice* wdt = NULL;
void dm_hw_watchdog_reset(void)
{
int ret;
if (wdt) {
    printf("dm_hw_watchdog_reset\n");
    wdt_reset(wdt);
}
else {
    ret = 2+8;
    /*ret = uclass_get_device_by_driver(UCLASS_WDT,       DM_GET_DRIVER(wdt_bmu), &wdt);
    if (ret)
        printf("Lack of watchdog device\n");
    else
        wdt_start(wdt, 60000, 0);*/
    }
}
#else
void dm_hw_watchdog_reset(void)
{
}
#endif  [/code]

What is weird when Uboot is started it prints tens of times:

" dm_hw_watchdog_reset" 

and then hangs on. I have to power on/off the board and recovery it with the aid of jtag. I don't understand why 'wdt' variable isn't NULL and code under if (wdt) is executed. Seems like something uboot specific.
