Get the Canonical Intel platform team on this, please. This is not a simple matter of updating a package: upstream DID NOT release the required microcode updates yet on the usual Linux microcode update channel, and there is no public information about the microcode updates. OTOH, apparently some microcode updates also require changes to the BIOS. Without some help from @intel, (or, supposedly, access to NDA'ed developer channel information), we don't know which ones have this sort of dependency. Hopefully, the Canonical platform team has contacts @intel to find out which Haswell, Broadwell and Skylake microcode update revisions are safe for the operating system to update to, and why Intel has not issued Linux microcode updates since January 21st, 2015... -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
