Watchdogs shouldn't be triggered in the normal course of events. They are a last line of defense for exceptional circumstances that will render a device inoperative, not a cure-all for poor system design.
- rcxdude 3y agoSure, but a system where a task has ceased to execute is in pretty much all circumstances a system where the watchdog (or some other assert) should trigger. (the whole toyota case involved them getting raked over the coals because their system did not in fact detect a failed task and do this).
