Hi everyone,

In the latest Debian's minor update (12.7) it was updated the "amd64-microcode" package, during the update process a message that it said: "The cpu microcode will be updated at the next reboot" was showed.

The issue is that I'm running an homemade Kernel image that it had the CONFIG_MICROCODE_AMD item disabled by me mistakenly, so I'm not sure that the microcode of my CPU was updated. Of course I've rebuild and installed a new kernel with that item enabled before rebooting.

I've read the lscpu's man-page but I didn't find anything about the CPU microcode version, the following command shows:

$ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep microcode | head -1
microcode       : 0x6000822

the value returned is from an updated microcode? How can I verify that the microcode was updated or not?

Thanks for any hints, kind regards
