The version in eoan was superceded by the 20200609 release. In focal and groovy, this change was reverted in 3.20200609.0ubuntu0.20.04.2 because the tmpfiles.d approach, in addition to attmepting to late load early in the boot process, also caused late loading to trigger during package installation.
Enabling late loading by default also makes it more difficult to recover from a problematic microcode update, attempting to boot an earlier kernel/initramfs with a known-good microcode to recover will be thwarted by the late loaded problematic microcode. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1862938 Title: Enable late loading of microcode by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-microcode/+bug/1862938/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
