The build was changed to remove usage of microcode .h files when all of the .h files were converted to binary. This is still needed for some builds when microcode binaries aren't in the blobs tree.

Select this option if you do not want CPU microcode included in CBFS.
|
|
Note that for some CPUs, the microcode is hard-coded into the source
|
|
tree and is not loaded from CBFS. In this case, microcode will still
|
|
be updated. There is a push to move all microcode to CBFS, but this
|
|
change is not implemented for all CPUs.
|
|
|
|
This option currently applies to:
|
|
- Intel SandyBridge/IvyBridge
|
|
- VIA Nano
|
|
|
|
Microcode may be added to the ROM image at a later time with cbfstool,
|
|
if desired.

The GOOD:
|
|
Microcode updates intend to solve issues that have been discovered
|
|
after CPU production. The expected effect is that systems work as
|
|
intended with the updated microcode, but we have also seen cases where
|
|
issues were solved by not applying microcode updates.
|
|
|
|
The BAD:
|
|
Note that some operating system include these same microcode patches,
|
|
so you may need to also disable microcode updates in your operating
|
|
system for this option to have an effect.
|
|
|
|
The UGLY:
|
|
A word of CAUTION: some CPUs depend on microcode updates to function
|
|
correctly. Not updating the microcode may leave the CPU operating at
|
|
less than optimal performance, or may cause outright hangups.
|
|
There are CPUs where coreboot cannot properly initialize the CPU
|
|
without microcode updates
|
|
For example, if running with the factory microcode, some Intel
|
|
SandyBridge CPUs may hang when enabling CAR, or some VIA Nano CPUs
|
|
will hang when changing the frequency.
|
|
|
|
Make sure you have a way of flashing the ROM externally before
|
|
selecting this option.
