2016-03-15T17:39:22+00:00

Pull x86 microcode updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The biggest change in this cycle was the separation of the microcode
  loading mechanism from the initrd code plus the support of built-in
  microcode images.

  There were also lots cleanups and general restructuring (by Borislav
  Petkov)"

x86/microcode/AMD: Issue microcode updated message later

2016-02-09T10:41:18+00:00

Before this, we issued this message from save_microcode_in_initrd()
which is called from free_initrd_mem(), i.e., only when we have an
initrd enabled. However, we can update from builtin microcode too but
then we don't issue the update message.

Fix it by issuing that message on the generic driver init path.

x86/microcode: Issue update message only once

2016-02-09T10:41:16+00:00

This is especially annoying on large boxes:

  x86: Booting SMP configuration:
  .... node  #0, CPUs:          #1
  microcode: CPU1 microcode updated early to revision 0x428, date = 2014-05-29
     #2
  microcode: CPU2 microcode updated early to revision 0x428, date = 2014-05-29
     #3
  ...

so issue the update message only once.

$ grep microcode /proc/cpuinfo

shows whether every core got updated properly.

x86/cpu: Convert printk(KERN_ ...) to pr_(...)

2016-02-03T09:30:03+00:00

 - Use the more current logging style pr_(...) instead of the old
   printk(KERN_ ...).

 - Convert pr_warning() to pr_warn().

We have the MAINTAINERS file for that. Also, Andreas doesn't
have the time for this work anymore.

x86/microcode: Remove modularization leftovers

2015-10-21T09:22:12+00:00

Remove the remaining module functionality leftovers. Make
"dis_ucode_ldr" an early_param and make it static again. Drop
module aliases, autoloading table, description, etc.

Bump version number, while at it.

x86/microcode: Merge the early microcode loader

2015-10-21T09:22:12+00:00

Merge the early loader functionality into the driver proper. The
diff is huge but logically, it is simply moving code from the
_early.c files into the main driver.

x86/microcode: Unmodularize the microcode driver

2015-10-21T09:22:11+00:00

Make CONFIG_MICROCODE a bool. It was practically a bool already anyway,
since early loader was forcing it to =y.

Regardless, there's no real reason to have something be a module which
gets built-in on the majority of installations out there. And its not
like there's noticeable change in functionality - we still can load late
microcode - just the module glue disappears.
