I've made a server with an arduino DUE and a home made ethernet card using a W5500 working with ethernet lib.
There is a hardware watchdog on the ethernet card and, unfortunately, when transactions are too slow, the watchdog is not trigger'd and the system boot occurs. There is no issue when I disconnect the watchdog, but it's needed.
I spend some time to understand the ethernet lib, I found the socketSend() function, and it's not clear for me if (or where) a time out is managed. client.print() can take a long time when no acknowledge comes.
As yield() is used in the waiting loop in socketSend(), I wish to include a watchdog trigger inside.
Should I juste add that in my code (without to fear "colateral effects") ?
void yield()
{
trigwd();
}
Later I will bufferise all HTTP transactions and out them in background. Not a simple job, there is many clients for http, udp, ntp working at the same time.

Are you sure you’ve chosen the right hardware? Sounds to me as if a Linux based board (e.g. Raspberry Pi) would have been a better choice. Remember the WizNet chip is able to handle 4 sockets (aka connections) at most.

Thx for your interest, W5500 handle 8 sockets and my system consumption is about 350mW (a little too much). I don't know if that is possible with a linux based system. When the software will be stabilized, I'll design a board with an STM32L for lower power (the goal is under 150mW).
No infos about yield ?
