Dear All, An update just brought on my CenOS 6 boxes updated microcode.dat files: /lib/firmware/microcode.dat Does anybody know off hand what (how critical) is that, as, if it is related to most famous these days trouble with CPU hardware, I will need to reboot relevant boxes to have new microcode loaded. But if it is not that critical, it can wait till next r...

X86 microcode: add S3 micorcode update When wakeup from S3, use per cpu microcode image to update cpu microcode.

From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Hi all, This series adds a new microcode driver for Xen. The Xen hypervisor can deal with all the low-level details of doing a microcode update (Intel vs AMD, doing all the physical CPUs present on the system, current and future, etc), so all the driver has to do is make a hypercall to upload the microcode into Xen. This only works on...

Hi, is there any guide for CPU microcode updates on CentOS6, Xen 4.10, kernel 4.9 ? Thanks Karel

I can't even tell WTF they're recommending not doing in this doc, it's that badly written. You have to infer, by reading two prior docs, that they're referring to microcode. And then you have to as...
