Subject: [patch V5 28/39] x86/microcode: Clarify the late load logic
Date: Tue, 17 Oct 2023 23:24:02 +0200 (CEST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231017211723.521532582@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20231017200758.877560658@linutronix.de
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
reload_store() is way too complicated. Split the inner workings out and
make the following enhancements:
- Taint the kernel only when the microcode was actually updated. If. e.g.
the rendezvous fails, then nothing happened and there is no reason for
tainting.
- Return useful error codes
