The concept of the watchdog daemon is pretty simple. It has a config file /etc/watchdog.conf where you can specify various tests. If one of those tests fail, it will stop writing to /dev/watchdog causing the system to reboot. These included tests for memory, number of processes in the process table, test for a particular process, etc. A simple way to get this up and running on your target is to initially install the "watchdog" package on your host. Then simple do a "man watchdog" and "man watchdog.conf" to read up on the various options this daemon provides. HTH, -- Shuveb Hussain B I N A R Y K A R M A Chennai, India.

See src/busybox-xyz/miscutils/watchdog.c > One more doubt.. whether the device shown in /dev/watchdog is a > softdog or hardware watchdog. Normally it is a software. But you can link it with hardware by loading proper device driver. The watchdog daemon which comes with busybox is a very simple one. It just kick the dog for every T secs. I hope, even the new version, only the -t option is supported. (I use busybox-1.01). If you want this watchdog to monitor your apps, then apps needs to create apps.pid file at starting stage and this watchdog needs to be modified to check the pid file(s) regularly at T sec. If any of the apps/pid not responding then watchdog must reboot the board. You can check up the normal watchdog src to get more idea about this implementation.
