Keeping in mind that not all devices have a serial number, I've used
the following for all platforms. If this doesn't produce a serial number,
I've dropped back to a Bluetooth or WiFi MAC address, or an IMEI
from a phone.
-------------------------------------------
UInt32 companyID;
char serialNumber[32];
FtrGet(sysFtrCreator,sysFtrNumOEMCompanyID,&companyID);
serialNumber[0] = 0;
if (companyID == 'hspr')
{
UInt16 size = sizeof(serialNumber);
HsGetVersionString(hsVerStrSerialNo,platformInfo.serialNumber,&size);
}
else
{
UInt8 *p;
UInt16 size;
if (SysGetROMToken(0,sysROMTokenSnum,&p,&size) == 0 &&
size > 0 && *p != 0xFF)
{
if (size > sizeof(serialNumber)-1)
size = sizeof(serialNumber)-1;
MemMove(serialNumber,p,size);
serialNumber[size] = 0;
}
}
-------------------------------------------
