An EFI stub (aka EFI boot stub)[1] is a kernel that is an EFI executable, i.e. that can directly be booted from the UEFI firmware. This means a bootloader is not necessary for them. (But it is also possible to use a bootloader.)

  1. ↑ The kernel doc lacks unification in the terminology. The doc page [1] is titled "(the) EFI Boot Stub", but the word "EFI stub" is also used.
