| |
Intel spec says: 'The processor flags in the 48-byte header and the processor flags field associated with the extended processor signature structures may have multiple bits set.'
Make sure processor flags of the new microcode intersect with current cpu's. Comparing with old microcode's pf can't guarantee this.
