Provide an interface for cpu/soc id and version #238

Open nashif opened 8 years ago

nashif commented 8 years ago

Reported by Anas Nashif:

Zephyr shall provide a generic interface for getting the cpu id and any other identifying data from the underlying hardware using the HAL supported by the device.

Acceptance Criteria:

For reference, look at qm_identification.h in QMSI, other SoCS from different architecture might have different identifying parts that need to be exposed.

(Imported from Jira ZEP-235)

Acknowledging the extensive discussion on the mailing list, there are open questions on the need for such an API and also on the support burden created over the long term. This feature will be put on hold until we can come to a consensus.
