Greetings,
I am sorry if this has been asked before, It does not appear so on the mailing list archive.
I'd like to replace do_reset function with my own custom one, (i.e. resetting by not petting an external hw watchdog).
In previous discussion,

Wolfgang seems to favor creating a custom-board specific command (e.g. wdreset) and calling that
but If I do that, I have to replace all instances of do_reset that matters to my board.
It seems simpler to simply 'hijack and replace/enhance' the existing 'do_reset' to do my bidding.
Is there a recommended way of doing this? Any chance of adding something like this:
/cpu/$some-cpu/cpu.c
do_reset()
{
#ifdef CUSTOM_BOARD_RESET
custom_board_reset();
#endif;
<normal do_reset command>
}
This way each board can define their own "call_custom_board" function.
Thanks for everyone's time
- Richard
