Subject: [patch 0/9] x86: AMD microcode patch loading support
Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2008 18:17:23 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080725161723.636932280@amd.com> (raw)
This patch set introduces microcode patch loading support for AMD processors. It includes refactoring
of existing code to allow code sharing. Vendor specific code has been split off, leading to a
multi-module solution as compared to the current single-module approach.
Thanks,
Peter Oruba

Subject: [patch 1/9] [PATCH 1/9] x86: Moved Intel microcode patch loader declarations to seperate header file.
References: <20080725161723.636932280@amd.com>
Content-Disposition: inline; filename=0001-x86-Moved-Intel-microcode-patch-loader-declarations.patch
Intel specific microcode declarations have been moved to a seperate header file.
There are no code changes to the code itself and no side effects to other parts.
