u-boot is too old and does not fully support UEFI booting

[ausil]

The provided u-boot dates from a time when UEFI support was being implemented. There is currently not enough support in the old version of u-boot to boot a system using the generic distro boot functionality. I would like to request that u-boot be moved to the current mainline version

I have managed to successfully compile and use a pretty new u-boot version based on 2023.04 on my Clearfog base system.

You may be able to re-use some of my work. I am pulling from this code base:

And I am applying the attached patch. This patch has a mix of required modifications to support clearfog base systems, and some of the customizations I need it to work on my platform.
