I don't think you can do this test with QEMU and without propietary
software. You need a real CPU and the "propietary software" that
comes inside it from factory. It's basically testing if the
version of microcode shipped from factory works or needs the
updated microcode. I believe we don't know the reasons the
microcode was updated, so we don't know what the bugs solved,
if any, were.
