Hi,

Can you check which value wdt_disable() returns?

Hi,  Sigurd Hellesvik

wdt_disable return value: -1

Hi,

-1 is EPERM.

From wdt_disable():
"-EPERM – If watchdog can not be disabled directly by application code. "

Maybe an easier way to achieve what you need is to save a Non-Volatile variable keeping track of the watchdog status.
Then enable the watchdog if the variables says so.

Did that make sense?

Hi,

You can not call wdt_disable from you application.

I suggest you do something like this in your code instead:

#define WDT_TMP_DISABLE_ID 1

int wdt_tmp_disabled[1];
nvs_read(fs,WDT_TMP_DISABLE_ID,wdt_tmp_disabled,sizeof(wdt_tmp_disabled));
if(wdt_tmp_disabled){
    wdt_tmp_disabled = 0;
    nvs_write(fs,WDT_TMP_DISABLE_ID,wdt_tmp_disabled,sizeof(wdt_tmp_disabled));
}
else{
    wdt_install_timeout(...)
    wdt_setup(...)
}
// ...
// ...

//If you want to restart temporary withour watchdog:
wdt_tmp_disabled = 1
nvs_write(fs,WDT_TMP_DISABLE_ID,wdt_tmp_disabled,sizeof(wdt_tmp_disabled));
sys_reboot(0)

Did the code example help your understanding?
