Builtin microcode
|
||||
=================
|
||||
|
||||
We can also load builtin microcode supplied through the regular firmware
|
||||
builtin method CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL. Here's an example:
|
||||
|
||||
CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL=y
|
||||
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="intel-ucode/06-3a-09 amd-ucode/microcode_amd_fam15h.bin"
|
||||
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR="/lib/firmware"
|
||||
|
||||
This basically means, you have the following tree structure locally:
|
||||
|
||||
/lib/firmware/
|
||||
|-- amd-ucode
|
||||
...
|
||||
| |-- microcode_amd_fam15h.bin
|
||||
...
|
||||
|-- intel-ucode
|
||||
...
|
||||
| |-- 06-3a-09
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
so that the build system can find those files and integrate them into
|
||||
the final kernel image. The early loader finds them and applies them.
