Nvidia ENTRYPOINT script pollutes stdout

[feltech]

The upstream nvidia/cuda images use a script in their Docker image ENTRYPOINT that prints a banner before executing any command.

This banner is printed to stdout. This is annoying when running a command via a temporary container where the stdout is important (e.g. is expected to be structured output such as XML).

Steps to reproduce

$ docker run --rm aswf/ci-base:2024.1 echo "MY MESSAGE" > message.txt
$ cat message.txt

Mitigation

If inheriting from the image in a new Dockerfile then ENTRYPOINT [] can be used to override and disable the entrypoint script.

If running from the command-line then you can use --entrypoint "" to achieve the same effect.
