+Description
+-----------
+
+The wdt command is used to control watchdog timers.
+
+The 'wdt list' command shows a list of all watchdog devices.
+
+The 'wdt dev' command called without argument shows the current watchdog device.
+The current device is set when passing the name of the device as argument.
+
+The 'wdt start' command starts the current watchdog timer.
+
+The 'wdt stop' command stops the current watchdog timer.
+
+The 'wdt reset' command resets the current watchdog timer without stopping it.
+
+The 'wdt expire' command let's the current watchdog timer expire immediately.
+This will lead to a reset.
+
