I just came across the following code ..
(hash)ifdef linux
toolchain_init_irqs();
(hash)endif
Does that imply there is a possibility that the source could be ported to a linux platform?

We have literally no idea what you are talking about...
Given the Nordic Ble Mesh in the SDK is provided as source code, theoretically it is possible to run it on linux, and the softdevice calls can be emulated via a shim.
So one could end up with a Ble Mesh on a Linux machine that is functionaly identical to the one running on an nrf5x as long as the BLE hardware is 4.0 compliant.
Even the PB-GATT could be emulated by chaining on to the Bluez stack
The only thing preventing that from happening is the source code licence. Which states ...
This software, with or without modification, must only be used with a Nordic Semiconductor ASA integrated circuit.
Hi Mahendra,
the linux references are artifacts from early development and/or for unit testing purposes.
So no, as far as I know there are no plans for porting the Nordic Bluetooth Mesh stack to Linux.
Best regards
