Hello Hilbert,
I have glanced through your full log. It does not tell me direct failure, I see that you are stuck with PCIe 00:1F.3 .
But it does tell me much more than your initial log. Mainly, the first part (good 70%) is MRC algorithm executed in the ROM stage. At the end of the romstage the early PCH init takes place. And, also interesting thing is that DMI links use beneath QPI links, in nutshell seems that DMI links are initially initialized as QPI links, then changed to DMI protocol?!
Then you get to the RAM stage, where an interesting function (enumerating PCIe buses on PCH) gets executed (forgot the name, NotifyPeim-blah... Or similar, it gets called twice):
The interesting part is marked with <<======== :

Please, read the following Coreboot thread: https://mail.coreboot.org/pipermail/coreboot/2016-July/081645.html
You'll see there that there are four (4) CPUIDs for BDX-DE: 0x50661, 0x50662, 0x50663 and 0x50664! I know that 0x50663 is PPR (Pre PR), whilst 0x50664 is PR (Production Release). For 0x50661/2 the story is much more complicated, you do not want to know that/you do not need to know that.
What you should be aware of is the MCU. If you use wrong MCU with the wrong sku, then it'll exibit the similar "features" you have discovered. In other words you have to track for 0x50663 the proper MCUs, and you also might change the sku (to use PR 0x50664, and proper MCUs for it).
And one more (VERY important) thing: you should use for PPR 0x50663 PPR PCH, and for PR 0x50664 PR PCH. Mixtures would not work!
Good Luck! Zoran _______

Hi David,
Yes, actually I have same try like you to comment out the SMBus clock gating. But the result is it started to reboot again after jumping to boot code as attached. I use U-Boot as payload. If grub was used, it just hanged there. Did you have same condition before? Thanks.

Hi Zoran,
I have changed to maximal log level and found SMBus init was failed when enabling clock gating. Do you have any comments about this? Thanks.
Yes, looking back at my notes from earlier that is also how I got past the issue - by commenting out the following lines in src/soc/intel/fsp_broadwell_de/smbus.c: /* Enable clock gating */ reg32 =read32(rcba + 0x341c); reg32 |= (1 << 5); write32(rcba + 0x341c, reg32);
I suspected that reading the register is where it hung, however I did not have a chance to root cause the issue or try to enable clock gating elsewhere. The system worked without clock gating enabled, though.
I also tested another Broadwell-DE device that did not require the same hack, but it used different memory and a different processor stepping (stepping 3 instead of stepping 4) which may have made a difference.
