Hi guys ,
I tested kernel 4.6 with the built in microcode method , following
Documentation/x86/early-microcode.txt.
The kernel config[1] has :
CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL=y
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="intel-ucode/06-1a-05"
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR="/lib/firmware"
also
CONFIG_MICROCODE=y
CONFIG_MIC
22 matches
