.. zephyr:code-sample:: posix-uname
   :name: uname()

   Use ``uname()`` to acquire system information and output it to the console.

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.
