Ive no idea actually. I do know microcode is (1) pushed faster to Linux and (2) don't require anything as they can be run at boot time.
These same changes are pushed somewhat later to Windows OS (there was some dull malware a month or two ago) but what testing they do I've no idea. Presumably it is confidential.
You can't get in a muddle with Microcode though - Linux kernel abstracts it and so does Windows. AFAIK anyway.
