I might be confused, but I thought microcode updates on consumer
processors is handled by BIOS update from the motherboard manufacturer,
the AGESA part of the BIOS version, currently 1.0.0.7. I'm not sure if
we'll see a late-load .bin for the consumer processors. If anybody can
confirm or deny, please speak up.
BLFS shows how to update the microcode in an initrd. That's really just
having the kernel do what the BIOS update would do.
On my latest build (yesterday), I have:
menuentry 'LFS SVN-20180106 kernel 4.14.12' {
linux /vmlinuz-4.14.12-lfs-SVN-20180106 root=/dev/sda9 ro
initrd /microcode-06-5e-03.img
}
