Adding a new com32 module to handle cpu information
From : Erwan Velu <erwan.velu@free.fr>
This patch a new com32 module to handle cpu information.
A new "cpu" structure can be filled by calling "detect_cpu(&cpu)".
It provides :
- Vendor name as string
- Model as string
- Vendor as integer
- Model as integer
- Family as integer
- Stepping as Integer
- Flags as boolean
- SMP as boolean
Note that SMP is just a manner to know if the bios annonce an MPTABLE.
This code can't detect each processor.
I've been adding a demo program called cpuidtest to show how it works.
if (cpu.flags.lm == true) printf("This system is x86_64 compatible\n");
This example shows how to test if a system is X86_64 compatible.
I hope it's simple enough ;)
This code is mainly taken from the Linux Kernel.
Greetings for all the guys who wrote it.
Testing and feedback are welcome.

Simple menu system updates
Hi,
I'm attaching a patch to Syslinux dealing with a handful of issues that
were preventing me from using the simple menu interface. Issues covered:
* Enable "MENU ONERROR" as a keyword on par with "ONERROR".
* Enable hidden menu entries to be used as ontimeout and onerror entries
(probably the least estheticalla pleasing part, sorry about that.)
* Make global "IPAPPEND" directives apply also when using menu.c32.
* Memory allocation fix for the ontimeout-variable (unlabel does free()).
* Make menu.c32 add ipappend options at end of kernel commend line, as
pxelinux generally does.
I see 3.30-pre1 is out now, I haven't had time to check applicability of
these patches towards this. Hope they can still be of use.

- SYSTEM
- BASE_BOARD
- PROCESSOR
It's possible and easy to extend to many other Handles.

Both are GPL, my code too.
