[PATCH v0 0/12] x86, microcode, AMD: Per-family patches cache

From: Borislav Petkov
Date: Tue Aug 07 2012 - 13:44:18 EST


Hi all,

here's a set of patches which adds code for caching all microcode
patches which belong to the current family on which we're running. We
look up the patch needed for each core from the cache at application
time instead of holding a single patch per-system.

Also, each commit message should contain additional, hopefully sensible
information about each change.

Patchset has been tested on all families which are supported by the
microcode loader ( >= 0x10).

As always, all comments and suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks.
