| Overview |
| ******** |
| |
| The HW Info API provides access to hardware information such as device |
| identifiers and reset cause flags. |
| |
| Reset cause flags can be used to determine why the device was reset; for example |
| due to a watchdog timeout or due to power cycling. Different devices support different |
| subset of flags. Use `hwinfo_get_supported_reset_cause` to retrieve the flags |
| that are supported by that device. |
