If you say Y here, you will be able to update the microcode on
certain Intel and AMD processors. The Intel support is for the
- IA32 family, e.g. Pentium Pro, Pentium II, Pentium III,
- Pentium 4, Xeon etc. The AMD support is for family 0x10 and
- 0x11 processors, e.g. Opteron, Phenom and Turion 64 Ultra.
- You will obviously need the actual microcode binary data itself
- which is not shipped with the Linux kernel.

This option selects the general module only, you need to select
at least one vendor specific module as well.
