Someone just started folding using an Nvidia H100 SXM5!!

Yes, some are explicitly blackisted. For example this section in the very old GPUs:

Code: Select all

0x10de:0x084a:::MCP78 [nForce 730a] Blacklist
0x10de:0x084b:::C77 [GeForce 8200]
0x10de:0x084c:::MCP82 [nForce 980a/780a] Blacklist
0x10de:0x084d:::GF110 [Tesla M2070-Q Dual-Slot] 1028 
0x10de:0x084f:::MCP78S [GeForce 8100/nForce 720a] Blacklist

Most of the rest have managed to get that non-whitelisted status as they have aged out of support, but there are some like this.

These can be deleted, for real blacklist

They are from Nvidia, I half expect them to reuse the PCI IDs on some newer card with the justification that those are from nearly 20 years ago and no one uses them anymore.

A GPU that is not in the whitelist is blacklisted by default. I think we could remove all those old entries ... I don't remember why they were added a long time ago.

They are remnant from when those GPUs had potential to be enabled for folding. Very early days of nVidia folding
