.. _posix-uname-sample:
POSIX uname()
#############
Overview
********
In this sample application, the POSIX `uname()`_ function is used to acquire system information and
it is output to the console. Additionally, uname is added as a shell command and system information
is displayed according to the option(s) provided for the command.
Building and Running
********************
This project outputs to the console. It can be built and executed on QEMU as follows:
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/posix/uname
:host-os: unix
:board: qemu_x86
:goals: run
:compact:
For comparison, to build directly for your host OS if it is POSIX compliant (for ex. Linux):
.. code-block:: console
cd samples/posix/uname
make -f Makefile.host
The make output file will be located in samples/posix/uname/build.
