The <filename>systemd-boot</filename> class provides functions specific
to the systemd-boot bootloader for building bootable images.
This is an internal class and is not intended to be used directly.
<note>
The <filename>systemd-boot</filename> class is a result from
merging the <filename>gummiboot</filename> class used in previous
Yocto Project releases with the <filename>systemd</filename>
project.
</note>
Set the
<link linkend='var-EFI_PROVIDER'><filename>EFI_PROVIDER</filename></link>
variable to "systemd-boot" to use this class.
Doing so creates a standalone EFI bootloader that is not dependent
on systemd.
