I may try it on my local machine. But I have no time this week.

Could you take a try by moving SetTimer () out of StartupAllAPs() and 
StartupThisAp() functions into InitMpSystemData() and don't disable timer more? 
  To check if it is helpful.

Yes, CheckThisAPStatus() seems to work ok. 
but I found gBS->SetTimer() seems not accurate. when I ran StartCore.efi, I 
found sometimes I needed a long time to wait for that case finished. I will 
investigate that.

And I had done a test cases list today. please see attached.
Unfortunately, StartupAllAPs works weak.


Thanks,
Chen
