[PATCH 4.4 007/210] x86/microcode/intel: Make early loader look for builtin microcode too

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx>

commit 264285ac01673e70557c43ecee338ce97c4c0672 upstream.

Set the initrd @start depending on the presence of an initrd. Otherwise,
builtin microcode loading doesn't work as the start is wrong and we're
using it to compute offset to the microcode blobs.
