Comment (by bdubbs@…):
I put xmlto on anduin and pointed to that. I did look for other places,
but couldn't find anything. The package was last updated Nov 2015.
I also updated the liberation fonts reference to Ken's URL.
Revision 18434.
I'm still ponder what to do about microcode_ctl. I have a copy of a
tarball for version 1.17, but I don't like how it works. It is only a
singleton microcode_ctl.c (and a .8 man page that doesn't provide any
useful information), but I don't like the Makefile. Really the only thing
needed is:
gcc -g -Wall -O2 -o intel-microcode_ctl intel-microcode_ctl.c
The data file can be found at
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26400/Linux-Processor-Microcode-
Data-File. That file looks like microcode-20161104.tgz, but expands to
microcode.dat in the current directory. Then
microcode_ctl <filename>
extracts the data and places it into a subdirectory named intel-ucode/.
Those are the details. The question remains about how to present it in
the firmware page of the book.
