[riot-devel] Device ID feature in RIOT

2015-06-19 Thread ROUSSEL Kévin

Hello everyone,

I just wanted to know if there was already a feature to determine a 
mote's unique ID (when available) in RIOT.


Such a feature can be highly desirable when running a test on many 
devices (I think about IoT-LAB testbed, for example), to automatically 
assign/compute node addresses, or seed RNGs with numbers really specific 
to each device.


If there is none, I can provide the one I have just built for my ongoing 
tests on IoT-LAB M3 motes: other users could then implement it for other 
motes later...


Best,

Hello,

I've just made a branch with this.

I'll PR it, so everyone can see what I mean.

And indeed, I think it's related to #3221, since it would be way to have 
a seed (hopefully) unique for every mote/device.


Regards,

Thanks for the proposal. Can you give a brief sketch of your idea?
I think this is related to https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT/issues/3221
There were indeed some discussions about this some months ago, but I
can't find a pointer to that.
Anyone has some pointers to such discussions?

Best

Emmanuel
