Apparently, Intel will be issuing a microcode update for this. What is the recommended way to automatically apply these during boot? I see that I have cpupdate-g20180513_4 installed, which appears to be maintained despite the scarily old date in the version number :-) https://www.freshports.org/sysutils/cpupdate/

The servers I'm concerned about are old enough to not receive BIOS updates ever again.


Thanks,
Stefan
