+Docker remains the source of truth for GPU injection. The driver selects opaque
+CDI device IDs from `driver_config.cdi_devices` or the daemon's discovered CDI
+inventory, then passes the same IDs to Docker with a CDI `DeviceRequest`.
+
+For a GPU sandbox, the driver writes those IDs and projected CDI spec directory

+It bind-mounts the daemon-reported spec directories read-only into the workload.
+The sandbox runtime resolves the selected devices in that mount namespace before
+it launches agent processes and derives Landlock paths and supplemental groups
