Simon Glass has done excellent work with making u-boot run as a coreboot

might help avoid a lot of unnecessary work. Just a thought.
I'm in contact with Simon, thanks for the notice. He also did a lot of
work on getting U-Boot running as a standalone bootloader on some x86
platforms (e.g. MinnowMax). I understand that it is debatable, if this
is "needed" or not. Even though diversity might help all parties - at
least from my point of view.
In this special case, I might have triggered a bug / issue in the Intel
FSP and solving this might also help the coreboot project / community.
Thanks,
Stefan

I think you are actively hurting the overall ecosystem by working on
a different project (FSP in U-Boot) which overlaps with coreboot
efforts.
The only thing that makes sense is for U-Boot to focus on being a
payload that is started by coreboot (this has already been done) and
for your issues to be solved within the coreboot frame.
Anything else is an obviously selfish effort by Denx and I don't see
why the coreboot community would support that. Please know that I
have no bias against Denx, since I had no experience with Denx I
thus far always erred on the side of giving benefit of the doubt.
At the very least, you should have framed your question in a coreboot
setting, if you want to engage with the coreboot community.
That is of course still very much possible.
