Hello Rudolf, First thank your for finding these blobs and the hack to use them, and for testing and validating them. But please could you tell us what was the setup for your tests : - what was your hardware : cpu + mobo (chipset)? - what was your linux kernel version? Thank you beforehand. Best regards, Florentin

Hi, I found new microcode here [1], I used cpu00610F01_ver0600111F_2018-03-05_AC55EB96.bin as a microcode for my Trinity family15h CPU. I hacked together a new microcode header which contains the equivalence table etc to be able to load this microcode into the CPU from Linux. dd if=/lib/firmware/amd-ucode/microcode_amd_fam15h.bin bs=1 count=84 of=header.bin cat header.bin cpu00610F01_ver0600111F_2018-03-05_AC55EB96.bin > microcode_amd_fam15h.bin copy the file to same location and trigger update: echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/microcode/reload [ 6032.948243] microcode: CPU0: new patch_level=0x0600111f [ 6032.964913] microcode: CPU2: new patch_level=0x0600111f Please note that the header.bin does contain a size of the microcode blob, but it happens to be the same, so it works. Normally the container may contain more microcode blobs. But in my case I use just "right" one for my CPU. The new microcode seems to be adding the IBPB feature.
