Hi Stefan,

it appears that since commit 06985289d45 ("watchdog: Implement generic
watchdog_reset() version") - by default - the first watchdog is started
unconditionally if CONFIG_WDT is set but never stopped before booting
the operating system.

Shouldn't it also be stopped uncondionally? What's worse is that on one
board/arch the watchdog is stopped in arch_preboot_os() which is never
called in the bootefi case. So even if I'd do a workaround and stop it
manually in my board code, I couldn't do that consistently for
bootm/bootefi.

Or am I missing something here?

Define CONFIG_WATCHDOG.
This takes care of resetting wdt.

Yes as along as you're inside the bootloader, but when u-boot hands
control over the OS the watchdog is not serviced anymore; which wouldn't
be a problem per se, but it is enabled unconditionally by u-boot.
