    Most of them don't. A class M star CAN'T have an Earthlike planet, anything close enough to a star that cool to have liquid water is going to be tide locked and within flare range - so it's been cooked. Sirius and Canopus, being class A, and Spica as a class B, are too young and too hot - they pass out too much in the way of hard radiation. Lethal. While all may have rocky planets, none can possibly be Earthlike as all would be inimical to life as we know it.
    A class F, G or K is doable. Alpha Centauri is a binary, so any planets will have eccentric orbits, but Tau Ceti is a possibility.
