Title: intel-microcode should be installed by default, when the CPU is GenuineIntel Status in intel: Fix Released Status in Ubuntu Kylin: Fix Released Status in amd64-microcode package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ubuntukylin-meta package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: intel-microcode should be installed by default on the bare-metal systems which are running on GenuineIntel CPUs, by the installers. Similarly other microcode packages for other CPUs brands should be considered for inclusion (e.g. amd64-microcode). I hope that ubuntu-drivers-common can gain ability to detect cpu series and/or vendors, packages that provide microcodes similarly declare support for cpu series and/or vendors, the microcode packages are shipped on the CDs in the pool directory, and installed on to the target machines as part of the installation. This should help with rapid correction of bugs and behaviour of the CPUs in the field. 2017 update, amd64-microcode should also be seeded, as it is useful to have it autoinstallable. In the recent years there have been critical CPU security vulnerabilities which got fixed with microcode updates.
