9. By Henrique de Moraes Holschuh

* Fix M-D-Y issue that leaked to the package version number
* The real upstream release date is 2013-07-10

8. By Henrique de Moraes Holschuh

* New upstream release, received through linux-firmware and LKML
  + updated microcode:
    sig 0x00500F10, id 0x05000029: erratum (+) 784;
    sig 0x00500F20, id 0x05000119: erratum (+) 784;
    sig 0x00600F12, id 0x0600063D: errata (-) 668, (+) 759, 778;
  + new microcode:
    sig 0x00200F31, id 0x02000032: errata 311, 316;
    sig 0x00600F20, id 0x06000822: errata 691, 699, 704, 708, 709, 734,
        740, 778;
  + This update fixes important processor bugs that cause data corruption
    or unpredictable system behaviour. It also fixes a performance issue
    and several issues that cause system lockup.
* Switch to native package, since there is no upstream tarball

7. By Henrique de Moraes Holschuh

* debian/control: update Breaks for new intel-microcode version scheme
* Bump major version number, this will allow us to also update the stable
  branch of amd64-microcode in the future without clashing with the stable
  branch of intel-microcode. The real issue is that amd64-microcode
  1.20120910-3 and intel-microcode 1.20130222.6 have changed (in lockstep)
  to a different initramfs cooperation protocol, but I failed to bump the
  major version at that time
* Urgency high to avoid delaying a series of high-priority intel-microcode
  updates being done at the moment: we need this version in testing before
  I can upload stable backports of intel-microcode or amd64-microcode

6. By Henrique de Moraes Holschuh

* control: remove homepage and update standards-version
* initramfs: update copyright information
* initramfs, postinst: don't do anything on non-AMD systems (Closes: #715518)
* initramfs, postinst: blacklist several kernel versions (Closes: #717185)
* control: add breaks: intel-microcode (<< 1.20130222.6~)
* load microcode module on package install/upgrade

5. By Henrique de Moraes Holschuh

initramfs: work around initramfs-tools bug #688794.
Use "_" in place of "+-." for the initramfs script name. This works
around a PANIC during boot when the initramfs was created in a system
with noexec $TMPDIR.

4. By Henrique de Moraes Holschuh

* AMD microcode release 20120910
  + updated microcode:
    sig 0x00600F12, id 0x06000629: errata (+) 691, 709, 740;
  + new microcode:
    sig 0x00610F01, id 0x06001119: errata 671, 686, 697, 698, 699, 704, 709,
        734, 740;
  + This update adds critical errata fixes for commonly used features.
    The hit probability of these errata is unknown to the Debian maintainer.
* README.Debian: mention module-init-tools, not just kmod. This is useful
  when backporting to Debian Squeeze
* debian/control: add Vcs-* fields

3. By Henrique de Moraes Holschuh

* debian/control: priority of this package should be standard,
  not extra. All AMD-based X86 boxes should install this package
* debian/control: update package description

2. By Henrique de Moraes Holschuh

* AMD microcode release 20120117:
  sig 0x00100F22, id 0x01000083: errata 244, 260, 280, 302, 308, 315, 342;

* Initial upload to Debian, urgency medium because we need this in Wheezy
  to properly support AMD processors. Closes: #676921.
