Alexey Dokuchaev 6baab87d1c Add a port of libcpuid, small x86 CPU identification library written in C.
NB: TIMESTAMP line in distinfo should read as follows, but has to stay in
its current form due to a bug in the hook script:
TIMESTAMP (libcpuid-0.3.0.tar.gz) = 1468115631

libcpuid is a small C library for x86 CPU detection and feature extraction.
Using it, you can:
- Get the processor vendor, model, brand string, code name, etc.
- Get information about CPU features such as: number of cores or logical
CPUs, cache sizes, CPU clock, etc.
- Check if the processor implements a specific instruction set such as
SSE2 or 3DNow!
- Execute the CPUID and RDTSC instructions in a portable way
- And have this all in your commercial application, without getting into
trouble, due to permissive license
Reference utility (rather advanced and useful on its own) is also provided.
