[ubuntu/vivid-proposed] intel-microcode 3.20140913.1 (Accepted)

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

intel-microcode (3.20140913.1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream microcode data file 20140913
    + New Microcodes:
      sig 0x000306f2, pf mask 0x6f, 2014-09-03, rev 0x0029, size 28672
    + Updated Microcodes:
      sig 0x000306c3, pf mask 0x32, 2014-07-03, rev 0x001c, size 21504
      sig 0x00040651, pf mask 0x72, 2014-07-03, rev 0x001c, size 20480
      sig 0x00040661, pf mask 0x32, 2014-07-03, rev 0x0012, size 23552
    + WARNING: UNSAFE TO BE APPLIED AT RUNTIME (lp#1370352)
  * Microcode updates are now applied only through the early initramfs
    + Bump major version number
    + Requires Linux kernel v3.10 or later, other kernels unsupported
    + postinst: don't apply microcode update
    + kernel preinst: stop loading microcode module
    + modprobe.d: blacklist microcode module from autoloading outside
      of the initramfs.  Still load it inside the initramfs for logging
    + initramfs: always use early initramfs mode, reject kernels before
      v3.10
    + README.Debian, NEWS.Debian: update
  * add a microcode best-effort blacklist.  This is a reactive blacklist
    which renames problematic microcode data files in such a way they
    will only be used for the [early] initramfs.  Use it to blacklist
    all Haswell microcode updates
  * Allow a non-Intel box to generate an early initramfs with microcode
    for an Intel box if the /etc/default/intel-microcode defaults are
    changed:
    + postinst: always attempt to update the initramfs
    + initramfs: on auto mode, do nothing in a non-intel box. In
      forced "early" mode, attempt to run iucode-tool.  This will do
      nothing (add no microcode) unless the default configuration is
      changed in /etc/default/intel-microcode
    + default: update comments
  * source: remove superseded upstream data file: 20140624
  * README.source: remove information about lenny, oldstable
  * debian/control: bump standards vesion to 3.9.6
  * lintian-overrides: remove
  * debian/copyright: update upstream copyright dates
  * postrm: avoid use of test -a
