Presently CP returns the CPU type for os.uname().sysname and os.uname().nodename. For cpython compatibility os.uname().nodename should return the board's hostname and os.uname().sysname should return circuitpython or something similar.

These choices were from a time when there was no network support. This kind of identifying information is spread around among:

  • os.uname()
  • sys.platform
  • sys.version
  • sys.version_info
  • platform (top-level module not turned on in CircuitPython but available in MicroPython)
