iucode-tool 1.3-1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

iucode-tool (1.3-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release
    + Make it safe to call iucode_tool with stdout and/or stderr closed
    + Ignore multiple attempts to read microcode data from stdin, as all
      data will have been read by the first attempt
    + Document in the manpage the arbritray maximum limit of 1GiB worth of
      binary data per microcode data file.  The other limits are too large
      to bother documenting
    + Microcode data file loader fixes and enhancements:
      + Improve IO error detection
      + Print the line number when reporting .dat parsing errors
      + Allow comments after valid data for .dat files, previously they
        had to be on a line of their own
      + Rework the .dat parser to make it less convoluted, and optimize it
        for the exact .dat file layout Intel has been using in the last 15
        years
    + Minor build fixes

iucode-tool: Intel processor microcode tool

 iucode_tool is a program to manipulate Intel® X86 and X86-64 processor
 microcode collections, and to use the kernel facilities to upgrade the
 microcode on Intel system processors.
 .
 It can load microcode data files in text and binary format, sort, list and
 filter the microcodes contained in these files, write selected microcodes to a
 new file in binary format, or upload them to the kernel.
 .
 It operates on non-free microcode data downloaded directly from Intel or
 installed by the intel-microcode package.
