I'm from GNU/Linux world where "port" does not have additional meaning
it has in *BSD world :)

My patch in 99% is copy-paste of existing code for Free or NetBSD (or,
maybe, even OpenBSD). And code for cpu is taken from code for FreeBSD
which parses /var/run/dmesg.boot as well, I hoped that DFly has better
interface for such info like /proc/cpuinfo in Linux.
