Well, if such an uncommon side-effect is expected of a function with a well-known name it should at least be prominently documented. I like Mike's suggestion to have a central udelay() implementation for that; I'm gonna try to whip up a patch tomorrow. >> I'm using an Atmel AT91-based custom board, and the udelay() function >> can be found in cpu/arm926ejs/at91/timer.c.

You hardly have a choice: After reset the AT91's watchdog timer runs at maximum period (15 seconds), and the control register is one-time writable. If you disable the watchdog in u-boot there's no way to re-enable it later in the OS.
