Subject: [PATCH 1/2] gpu: nova-core: preserve error information in gpu_name()
Date: Wed, 7 Jan 2026 16:58:10 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260108005811.86014-2-jhubbard@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260108005811.86014-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com>
Change gpu_name() to return a Result instead of an Option. This avoids
silently discarding error information when parsing the GPU name string
from the GSP.
Update the callsite to log a warning with the error details on failure,
rather than just displaying "invalid GPU name".
