    They have been sort of cracked, but it doesn't matter. The web or chain of trust of those updates from the vendor to the processor is what matters. They're at least CRC checked to prevent loading corrupt files.

    6-94-3 would become 6-5E-3. https://github.com/intel/Intel-Linux-Processor-Microcode-Data-Files/blob/6c0c4691e5bb446e0e428ebca595164709c59586/intel-ucode/06-5e-03

    I just want to update my CPU's microcode. I'm following Intel's official instructions. It says go to to their GitHub repository and download the file matching my CPU's --.

    Is it anymore of a "magic incantation" than the linux-image-XYZ package which controls which OS kernel is installed?

    If you want to see when Intel issues new microcode updates, it is all available on their GitHub: https://github.com/intel/Intel-Linux-Processor-Microcode-Dat...

  • iwlwifi beware - bullseye
    2 projects | /r/debian | 18 Aug 2021
    5.1.20 Intel CPU microcode issues The intel-microcode package currently in bullseye and buster-security (see DSA-4934-1 (https: //www.debian.org/security/2021/dsa-4934)) is known to contain two significant bugs. For some CoffeeLake CPUs this update may break network interfaces (https://github.com/intel/ Intel-Linux-Processor-Microcode-Data-Files/issues/56) that use firmware-iwlwifi, and for some Skylake R0/D0 CPUs on systems using a very outdated firmware/BIOS, the system may hang on boot (https://github.com/intel/Intel-Linux-Processor-Microcode-Data-Files/ issues/31). If you held back the update from DSA-4934-1 due to either of these issues, or do not have the security archive enabled, be aware that upgrading to the intel-microcode package in bullseye may cause your system to hang on boot or break iwlwifi. In that case, you can recover by disabling microcode loading on boot; see the instructions in the DSA, which are also in the intel-microcode README.Debian.

    For what it's worth, revision 0xea of the microcode for the affected CPUs works as far as the boot hangs are concerned (see near the bottom of issue #31 for confirmation.)

    It isn't clear if Haswell has this optimization. As an easy test you could run the zero-fill-bench linked in the post and check the fill0 vs fill1 numbers. If they are the same, Haswell probably never had this optimization in the first place.

    Based on the Intel microcode release note [1] it doesn't seem like client HSW got any update this time, only HSX (Haswell Xeon).
