We had this discussion yesterday on irc, but I never really got this in my head. It works ok with microcode.dat, but what happens if Intel release an update in /lib/firmware/intel-ucode/$f-$m-$s format ? The driver will do a request_firmware, but if we build the driver in, we'll be in the initrd, where that file won't exist. To make it work, we'll either have to.. - have the firmware in the initramfs or - pretend the request_firmware didn't happen, and have the initscript continue to do the microcode_ctl Which direction are we moving in ?
