My apologies; I've clarified the details of the testing below.

The verification was performed on a SPR machine. The objective was to
confirm the successful, runtime update of the CPUSVN using a targeted
microcode package.
Steps Taken:
- identified a microcode package version, designed to update CPUSVN
number on the machine;
- initiated a dynamic load of the package during OS runtime;
- confirmed the CPUSVN was upgraded post-load.
