It's possible there's something the core could do here. It's interesting that we have at least three issues in this area in this release: 1) This NVIDIA GPU issue 2) Daniel's issue with AMD Ryzen5/7 XHCI power-on (https://lore.kernel.org/r/20191014061355.29072-1-drake@xxxxxxxxxxxx) 3) Vidya's issue with Intel 750 NVMe power-on (https://lore.kernel.org/r/20191118172310.21373-1-vidyas@xxxxxxxxxx) Vidya's current patch is the most generic (calling pci_dev_wait() from pci_power_up()). That will print a warning if the device doesn't respond, but we still don't go as far as returning errors to runtime_resume. This is definitely something we should consider improving in the future. > > > + * - sudden shutdowns, as the kernel identified an unrecoverable error after > > > + * userspace tries to access the GPU. > > > > This doesn't fit with the others and more details might be > > informative here as well. > > yeah..

The lspci doesn't need to be after the failure occurs. You can do it immediately after boot. If you can capture any part of the dmesg or console log of these sudden shutdowns, that's all I'm interested in at this point.
