need to find the right source for the needed kernel module then to compile it and expose it as a custom APK...
all I now yet is that it is a hardware watchdog called something like it8772

maybe this is the right source code: https://code.woboq.org/linux/linux/drivers/watchdog/it87_wdt.c.html ?
no lusk, it supports chips: IT8620, IT8702, IT8712, IT8716, IT8718, IT8720, IT8721, IT8726, IT8728 and IT8783

~# modprobe it87_wdt
it87_wdt: Unknown Chip found, Chip 8772 Revision 0001


To monitor the CPU we have

~# modprobe it87
it87: Found IT8772E chip at 0xa40, revision 1
it87: Beeping is supported
