[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH 2/3] x86/amd: Stop updating the Zenbleed mitigation dynamically
This was potentially helpful when the chickenbit was the only mitigation and
microcode had not been released, but that was two years ago.
Zenbleed microcode has been avaialble since December 2023, and the subsequent
Entrysign signature vulnerability means that firmware updates block OS-loading
and more OS-loadable microcode will be produced for Zen2.
i.e. the Zenbleed fix is not going to appear at runtime these days.
No practical change.
