Description

I am trying to test an example that demonstrates YOLOv11 with OpenVINO.

When running inference with OpenVINO on NPU i get the following error:
```
RuntimeError: Exception from src/inference/src/cpp/core.cpp:109:
Exception from src/inference/src/dev/plugin.cpp:53:
Exception from src/plugins/intel_npu/src/plugin/src/plugin.cpp:492:
Exception from src/plugins/intel_npu/src/compiler_adapter/src/ze_graph_ext_wrappers.cpp:314:

[NPU_VCL] Compiler returned msg:

Research direction

Start by reproducing the YOLOv11 OpenVINO example using the reported NPU driver, firmware, Ubuntu, and kernel versions, then inspect the full error chain ending at vclAllocatedExecutableCreate. Compare the result with compatible component versions or a minimal NPU inference case; done means identifying whether the invalid argument is an environment issue or a driver defect and documenting a reproducible diagnosis.
