There's a set of patches for RPi5 support in U-Boot but they haven't made it into the main upstream distribution yet. https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/105290de-01e2-42e4-a272-cb1f66111...@suse.com/T/#me0d78fc5b7f769e2662c635ad13af283b3cd11fe The EDK2-based firmware (possibly in ACPI mode) maybe a better bet for now but expect there to be a lot that's not working yet: https://github.com/worproject/rpi5-uefi RPi5 has a new IO controller handling a lot of the devices (including USB, Ethernet, GPIO, eMMC/SDIO), https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/rp1-the-silicon-controlling-raspberry-pi-5-i-o-designed-here-at-raspberry-pi/ Overall, unless someone is secretly hacking on it, there's a lot of work left to do before it's going to be much use.
