How To Install microcode_ctl on CentOS 8

microcode_ctl is CPU microcode updates for Intel x86 processors

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install microcode_ctl on CentOS 8.

What is microcode_ctl

This package provides microcode update files for Intel x86 and x86_64 CPUs. The microcode update is volatile and needs to be uploaded on each system boot i.e. it isn’t stored on a CPU permanently; reboot and it reverts back to the old microcode. Package name “microcode_ctl” is historical, as the binary with the same name is no longer used for microcode upload and, as a result, no longer provided.

We can use yum or dnf to install microcode_ctl on CentOS 8. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install microcode_ctl.

Install microcode_ctl on CentOS 8 Using dnf

Update yum database with dnf using the following command.

sudo dnf makecache --refresh

The output should look something like this:
