Subject: [PATCH v3 09/10] x86/mm/init.c: Copy ucode from initrd image to memory
Date: Sun, 16 Dec 2012 02:43:28 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1355654609-16800-10-git-send-email-fenghua.yu@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1355654609-16800-1-git-send-email-fenghua.yu@intel.com>
From: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com>
Before initrd image is freed, copy valid ucode patches from initrd image
to kernel virtual memory. The saved ucode will be used to update AP in resume
or hotplug.
