16 16 Microcode Management
17 17
18 18 Historically microcode files were delivered by Intel as a single
19 19 microcode file that we would break apart and install with ucodeadm. Each
20 20 individual file represented a single platform's microcode. However,
21 21 recently Intel has changed that policy and is no longer distributing
22 22 microcode in that fashion. Further, we also relied on bootadm to go
23 23 through and turn this microcode into individual files as part of setting
24 24 up the boot environment.
25 25
26 26 Intead of using this method, we will update the microcode and manage
27 27 them in here as individual files. When updating files, please indicate
28 28 the release that the microcode was obtained from here.

34 34 The script "update.intel" in this directory can be used to help automate
35 35 the update by providing a tarball of the above microcode, and takes care
36 36 of updating the manifest as necessary. Be careful about new files.
