How often do you really need to feed the watchdog? Why do you have an
additional MCU taking care of capturing the level change, what else is
it doing? Can this MCU firmware be upgraded without external hardware?

With gpio_wdt driver when you're using LEVEL mode the GPIO will be
pulsed (high level for 1 us (microsecond!)) each time the watchdog is
pinged. With TOGGLE mode the GPIO will be toggled each ping.

Default watchdog ping frequency in procd is 5 seconds.

You can see more info on [0].

It's not a matter of testing, it's a matter of understanding what's
really going on.
