Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.120
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
When the intel-microcode package is installed and the running kernel
configured with CONFIG_MICROCODE=y, the following message is printed at
boot:
Loading, please wait...
modprobe: module microcode not found in modules.dep
It is likely invisible to most users, but appears immediately before the
cryptsetup prompt if the root filesystem is encrypted.
The cause appears to be that intel-microcode calls `force_load
microcode` from its hook script[1] which unconditionally adds its
arguments to /conf/modules in the initramfs, which results in the above
error when the module is not present.
Although this could be considered a bug in intel-microcode, the other
uses of force_load that I could find do not appear to protect against
this case, so it seems appropriate to fix it there. But do reassign if
you disagree.
Thanks,
Kevin

Description:
intel-microcode - Processor microcode firmware for Intel CPUs
Closes: 814301
Changes:
intel-microcode (3.20151106.2) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Makefile: make the build less verbose.
* debian/changelog: fix error in past entry.
Correct the version of the microcode that caused bug #776431,
in the entry for version 3.20150121.1.
* initramfs: don't force_load microcode.ko when missing.
Detect a missing microcode.ko and don't attempt to force_load() it,
otherwise we get spurious warnings at boot. In verbose mode, log the
fact that the microcode driver is modular. For Linux 4.4 and later,
skip the entire module loading logic, since the microcode driver cannot
be modular for those kernels (closes: #814301).
* initramfs: update copyright notice
* initramfs: use iucode_tool -l for verbose mode
* README.Debian: enhance and add recovery instructions.
Rewrite large parts of the README.Debian document, and add recovery
instructions (use of the "dis_ucode_ldr" kernel parameter).
