21 Sets the system's watchdog timer.
23 @param Timeout The number of seconds to set the watchdog timer to.
24 A value of zero disables the timer.
25 @param WatchdogCode The numeric code to log on a watchdog timer timeout
26 event. The firmware reserves codes 0x0000 to 0xFFFF.

31 string, optionally followed by additional binary data.
