== Watchdog problems! == The hardware watchdog is enabled per default and reboots the board every 5 minutes. This is why it takes 20+ minutes and four reboots to flash the router. OpenWRT and Linux's watchdog support for the AR2317 chipset apparently is not functioning per default in OpenWRT Attitude Adjustment (possibly not in any version). This means the router will still reboot every 5 minutes after you flash with OpenWRT. The watchdog support is supposed to work like so: *Kernel driver creates /dev/watchdog as interfaces between hardware watchdog and userland *watchdog daemon which is part of busybox writes null characters to /dev/watchdog periodically The kernel code to support the watchdog is in linux-3.3.8/drivers/watchdog/ar2315-wtd.c and the memory mapped register addresses should be the same for the AR2317 as for the AR2315. The code appears to be compiled into OpenWRT Attitude Adjustment. Perhaps it is not loading because it only activates for AR2315 hardware? or perhaps some flag needs to be set at compile time?
