Fedora 39 Update: microcode_ctl fixes and Intel CPU updates

fedora
Calendar Grey November 22, 2024
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Fedora 39's latest microcode_ctl revisions enhance Intel processor security and stability. Admins should apply patches swiftly to ensure system integrity.
Update to upstream 2.1-47

Summary

The microcode_ctl utility is a companion to the microcode driver written

by Tigran Aivazian .

The microcode update is volatile and needs to be uploaded on each system

boot i.e. it doesn't reflash your cpu permanently, reboot and it reverts

back to the old microcode.
