This has indeed been pretty frustrating. |

As far as I can tell there is no official AMD microcode update page, or any |
| 10 |
kind of official release notes. I'm not sure where linux-firmware actually |
| 11 |
gets the microcode files from (I'm sure they wouldn't load if they weren't |
| 12 |
genuine though). I can find no documentation as to what any of these |
| 13 |
updates actually do. |

It sounds like AMD intends for the microcode updates to be distributed via |
| 16 |
firmware updates, in which case the fixes would be done before boot. That |
| 17 |
is a good thing of course, but they should still release the microcode |
| 18 |
files themselves, and also have release notes for something like this. |
