microcode-20210608 comes with a new revision 0xea of 06-4e-03/06-5e-03, that seems to solve[1][2] the issue. [1] https://github.com/intel/Intel-Linux-Processor-Microcode-Data-Files/issues/31#issuecomment-857507126 [2] https://github.com/intel/Intel-Linux-Processor-Microcode-Data-Files/issues/47#issuecomment-857815716 06-4e-03 continues to have (possibly unrelated) issues[1]; on the other hand, there are no new reports for 06-5e-03, it can't be reproduced in-house, and enabling microcode-provided protections is more pertinent for it, thus, the bug is re-scoped to include 06-5e-03 only. [1] https://github.com/intel/Intel-Linux-Processor-Microcode-Data-Files/issues/31#issuecomment-861674762 microcode_ctl-20210608-1.el8 passed regression testing, and 06-5e-03 is enabled by default again. Moving to VERIFIED. https://beaker.engineering.redhat.com/jobs/5695954 Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
