By any chance, do you known anything about microcode driver which
uses standard firmware load interfaces (like those used by wlan card)?
In particular, what format does the driver expect the microcode in?
It didn't accept Tigran's files in past, does it accept them now?

Hi Shao-hua,
Is the tool you mentioned last June [1] available for splitting up the
old firmware files to the new format (eg
/lib/firmware/intel-ucode/06-0d-06), or are updates available from
Intel (or otherwise) in this new format?
