-Processor microcode files.
+The microcode data file contains the latest
+microcode definitions for all Intel processors.
+Intel releases microcode updates to correct
+processor behavior as documented
+in the respective processor specification updates.
+While the regular approach to getting
+this microcode update is via a BIOS upgrade,
+Intel realizes that this can be an administrative hassle.
+The Linux Operating System and VMware ESX products
+have a mechanism to update the microcode after booting.
+For example, this file will be used by
+the operating system mechanism if the file is placed
+in the /etc/firmware directory of the Linux system.
