I keep debugging and find out the MCHBAR+0x5400 - MCHBAR+0x7FFC can be accessed. The address below 0x5400 can cause hang.

After the MRC.bin is loaded and run, the board hang at  accessing data in MCHBAR32. If I move MCHBAR32 backward
before the MRC.bin runs, it still hangs. It seems has nothing to do with MRC.bin, does it?


   /* For reference print the System Agent version
     * after executing the UEFI PEI stage.
     */
    post_code(0xb1);
    u32 version = MCHBAR32(0x5034);  //<-------hang here
    post_code(0x1b);
    printk(BIOS_DEBUG, "System Agent Version %d.%d.%d Build %d\n",
        version >> 24 , (version >> 16) & 0xff,
        (version >> 8) & 0xff, version & 0xff);
