From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Where do I report AMD microcode issues? (lemmy.ml)

After commit 0bc3126c9cfa0b8c761483215c25382f831a7c6f in linux-firmware my system stopped booting (due to being unable to mount root fs). The bug isn't occurring all the time even with this commit, but I've still successfully tracked it down to this specific commit. Now I'm not sure where I can report it, as I could find info about maintainers of certain Linux subsystems, but not of linux-firmware or its constituent parts (like amd-ucode).

Edit: I've sent it to the person who authored the commit for the time being

I’d also report it to your distro assuming you are running their build as this could escalate it and have a report that others can see and also check to see if there is a bios update for your board as well.

This would work for something like Ubuntu, but I use NixOS so it's not gonna help much (but the NixOS linux-firmware maintainer does know of the issue)
