I bet there is a to of existing ways to encode and pass such information - in NOR flash, EEPROM, encoded in the serial number and/or MAC addresses, whatever. I would expect that each major board vendor has his preferred style, and I don't see how this could be changed. Also, pleas ekeep inmind that there are two sides of the issue: - storage device and format for the related information - method and for mat of passing this on to the kernel The Subject: addresses only the second part of this. And as mentioned before, there is a standardized method of passing such infoirmation to the kernel - through the device tree.
