We fully support microcode updates (as does FreeBSD). kldload cpuctl
pkg install devcpu-data cpucontrol -u /dev/cpuctl0 cpucontrol -u /dev/cpuctl1 ... (iterate all cpus) If you download a microcode update that isn't yet in the devcpu-data package, you will wind up with a microcode.dat file from Intel which you have to break up using a tool that is in devcpu-data's build directory. cd /usr/dports/sysutils/devcpu-data make cd /usr/obj/dports/sysutils/devcpu-data/devcpu-data-1.9 use the ./ucode-tool binary. Urm. I think something like: ./ucode-tool -i <location_of_intel_microcode_dat_file> and then move all the *.fw files to /usr/local/share/cpucontrol Then cpucontrol -u can find them. You need the latest master (the cpuctl device needed a larger buffer to handle newer cpu's larger microcodes). -Matt On Sun, Jan 7, 2018 at 4:32 PM, Lars Schotte <[email protected]> wrote: > Not if it runs counter clockwise. > > On Mon, 8 Jan 2018 01:16:29 +0200 > PeerCorps Trust Fund <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Even a broken watch is right twice a day! > > > > (I've always wanted to use that :) > > > -- > Lars Schotte > Mudroňova 13 > 92101 Piešťany >
