static bool Task::configure_task_watchdog(timeout_ms, panic_on_timeout)
to initialize / reconfigure the watchdog timer subsystem.bool Task::start_watchdog()
andbool Task::stop_watchdog()

, which can be used (with some caveats mentioned in the docstrings) to get info about tasks which triggered the watchdog.Motivation and Context
