It is a container for all F17h - you're simply making the wrong assumption that it would have microcode for *all* F17h out there. Which is not the case, because, well, there's not microcode for all of them ... yet. :-) IOW, there are only two patches released: file offset: 60 (0x3c) Patch 00: type 1, size: 3200 (0xc80) ID: 0x08001227, CPU rev ID: 0x00008012 file offset: 3268 (0xcc4) Patch 01: type 1, size: 3200 (0xc80) ID: 0x0800820b, CPU rev ID: 0x00008082 > Using hex also makes more sense indeed! > [ 44.127941] microcode: verify_and_add_patch: Added patch_id: 0x08001227, > proc_id: 0x8012 > [ 44.127948] microcode: verify_and_add_patch: Added patch_id: 0x0800820b, > proc_id: 0x8082 Yap. > For my hack tests I'd like to replace my 0x0810100b with a 0x08101007. Why would you even want to downgrade the microcode?! -- Regards/Gruss, Boris. Good mailing practices for 400: avoid top-posting and trim the reply.
