microcode.ctl 1.17-13 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu maverick
The microcode_ctl utility is a companion to the IA32 microcode
driver:
.
- it decodes and sends new microcode to the kernel driver for Intel IA32
family (Pentium Pro, PII, Celeron, PIII, Xeon, Pentium 4, etc.) and
Intel x86_64 family processors;
- it signals the kernel driver to release any buffers it may hold.
.
The microcode update does not permanently alter the CPU and must be
performed each time the system is booted.
