+ Implements IBRS/IBPB support and enhances LFENCE: mitigation
against Spectre (CVE-2017-5715)
+ Very likely fixes several other errata on some of the processors
* supplementary-ucode-CVE-2017-5715.d/: remove.
+ Downgraded microcodes:
sig 0x000406f1, pf_mask 0xef, 2017-03-01, rev 0xb000021, size 26624
sig 0x000506c9, pf_mask 0x03, 2017-03-25, rev 0x002c, size 16384
+ This removes IBRS/IBPB support for these two platforms when compared
with the previous (and unofficial) release, 20171215. We don't know
why Intel declined to include these microcode updates (as well as
several others) in the release.

I hate these sort of image that are fucking inaccurate.
Anybody who has copied the X86 architecture is vulnerable to spectre, so ARM and AMD are also in that trash compactor.
The only CPUs who have not these are simple other architectures like MIPS or POWER.

>What gains are made by the placement, anyway?
Probably speed. Because they must make the cpu as fast as possible in order to cope with the shit software they are making. To hell with any other considerations, speed is all that matters.
Maybe power efficiency too. Can't have Tyrone running out of battery because he forgot his adaptor like the dumbass he is.
Pretty sick of this shit.

Returning to tonight's biggest story. The World Health Organization today issued an unprecedented recall on augmentation technology. For days, reports of temporary malfunctions and electrostatic disturbances have been flooding in from around the globe. Elizabeth DuClare, spokeswoman for the WHO, confirmed that the cause of these disruptions has been linked to a major malfunction in a multichannel peripheral nerve biochip, a device which transmits neural impulses directly to inorganic tissue. She is urging people to visit their local LIMB clinics immediately to have the faulty chips replaced.

That's what theo promotes and his standard code quality is good but he's a hypocrite about a lot of things like blobs in the kernel or clang or licenses, it's double standards thinking and niggers exploit that all the time.
▶ No.851869
Intel will simply ignore any CPU older than 5 years.
Run "dmesg | grep microcode" and compare your sig value to the changelog if you want to check whether your microcode has actually been fixed against Spectre variant 2:

What blobs in kernel? There's only /etc/firmware/* that get installed into the hardware devices that need it. There's nothing like closed nvidia or broadcom drivers in kernel. If there exists no open-source driver, then your hardware simply isn't supported at all. Anyway the kernel is monolithic with no loadable modules.
