+Target Hash
+***********
+
+Each BSP must provide an implementation of the :c:func:`rtems_get_target_hash`
+directive.  The
+`default implementation <https://git.rtems.org/rtems/tree/bsps/shared/start/gettargethash-default.c>`_
+is based on the CPU counter frequency.  A BSP-specific implementation may be
+provided which covers also for example the device tree, settings of the memory
+controller, processor and bus frequencies, a serial number of a chip, etc.  For
+a BSP-specific implementation start with the default implementation and add
+more values to the target hash using the functions :c:func:`_Hash_Add_data` and
+:c:func:`_Hash_Add_string`.  The target hash can be used to distinguish test
+suite results obtained from different target systems.
