Refactor and introduce --force option to xen-ucode, which skips microcode version check when updating x86 CPU micocode. A new hypercall introduced with flags field to facilitate the new option and allow for future flags as needed. This change is required to enable developers to load ucode that is the same version as the one already loaded for testing. On top of that Intel is introducing "min rev", which will require a mechanism to override version checks Fouad Hilly (5): x86: Update x86 low level version check of microcode x86: Refactor microcode_update() hypercall with flags x86: Add usage() to print out usage message x86: Use getopt to handle command line args Add --force option to xen-ucode to override microcode version check tools/include/xenctrl.h | 3 +- tools/libs/ctrl/xc_misc.c | 12 +++--- tools/misc/xen-ucode.c | 61 ++++++++++++++++++++++------ xen/arch/x86/cpu/microcode/amd.c | 7 ++-- xen/arch/x86/cpu/microcode/core.c | 15 +++++-- xen/arch/x86/cpu/microcode/intel.c | 10 ++--- xen/arch/x86/include/asm/microcode.h | 3 +- xen/arch/x86/platform_hypercall.c | 12 +++++- xen/include/public/platform.h | 14 +++++++ 9 files changed, 103 insertions(+), 34 deletions(-) -- 2.42.0
