The problem is to identify the cards physically from the information we

The serial number isn't shown for every type of GPU and I'm not sure the
ones shown match the stickers on the GPUs.
If anybody were to know of a practical solution for this, I'd be happy
to read it.
i hadn't seen this proc driver reference before. checking a few of my
A100's and V100's and some off hand Quadro cards, i don't see the
serial number for any of them in the /proc. sadly this would be
pretty handy, does anyone know which cards do support this? i wonder
if there's some obscure something or other that needs to be turned on
to dump out the serial number in /proc instead of running nvidia-smi
Sorry, I didn't state cleary what I was referring to.
I never saw the serial number in /proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/*/information, but
by using nvidia-smi. The information was also sometimes empty:
nvidia-smi -q |grep -E '^\s+Serial Number\s+:'
Serial Number : N/A

That works fine on my boxes
[root@rtx-04 ~]# nvidia-smi -q -i 0 | grep Serial
Serial Number : 1321720....
