Subject: [PATCH 8/10 -tip] x86: Add cpufeature for Microcode update
Date: Tue, 12 May 2009 21:13:16 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1242142996.2547.22.camel@ht.satnam> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1242142941.2547.21.camel@ht.satnam>
Setting microcode update feature to friendly access of UCODE MSRs like:
1. IA32_PLATFORM_ID (Intel)
2. IA32_UCODE_WRITE (Intel)
3. IA32_UCODE_REV (Intel)
4. MSR_AMD64_PATCH_LEVEL (AMD)
5. MSR_AMD64_PATCH_LOADER (AMD)
