Package: needrestart Version: 3.1-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
When I run needrestart just after a reboot I obtain : Processor microcode update The currently running processor microcode revision is 0x7000012 which is not the expected microcode revision 0xe000009. Restarting the system to load the new processor microcode will not be handled automatically, so you should consider rebooting. Some informations on my system : # /usr/sbin/iucode_tool -tr -Sl /usr/sbin/iucode_tool: system has processor(s) with signature 0x00050663 # zgrep 0x00050663 /usr/share/doc/intel-microcode/changelog.gz sig 0x00050663, pf_mask 0x10, 2018-01-22, rev 0x7000012, size 22528 sig 0x00050663, pf_mask 0x10, 2017-12-16, rev 0x7000011, size 22528 sig 0x00050663, pf_mask 0x10, 2016-10-12, rev 0x700000d, size 20480 # grep microcode /proc/cpuinfo microcode : 0x7000012 # /usr/sbin/iucode_tool -tr -Sl /boot/initrd.img-4.16.0-1-amd64 /usr/sbin/iucode_tool: system has processor(s) with signature 0x00050663 microcode bundle 1: /boot/initrd.img-4.16.0-1-amd64 selected microcodes: 001/001: sig 0x00050662, pf_mask 0x10, 2018-01-22, rev 0x0015, size 31744 001/002: sig 0x00050663, pf_mask 0x10, 2018-01-22, rev 0x7000012, size 22528 001/003: sig 0x00050664, pf_mask 0x10, 2018-01-22, rev 0xf000011, size 22528 001/004: sig 0x00050665, pf_mask 0x10, 2018-01-22, rev 0xe000009, size 18432 These informations show that reboot is not due.
