Push LIKWID collector fix into main (#98)

* InfiniBandCollector: Scale raw readings from octets to bytes * Fix clock frequency coming from LikwidCollector and update docs * Build DEB package for Ubuntu 20.04 for releases * Fix memstat collector with numa_stats option * Remove useless prints from MemstatCollector * Replace ioutils with os and io (#87) * Use lower case for error strings in RocmSmiCollector * move maybe-usable-by-other-cc-components to pkg. Fix all files to use the new paths (#88) * Add collector for monitoring the execution of cc-metric-collector itself (#81) * Add collector to monitor execution of cc-metric-collector itself * Register SelfCollector * Fix import paths for moved packages * Check if at least one CPU with frequency information was detected * Correct type: /proc/stats -> /proc/stat * Update README.md * Run ipmitool asynchron. Improved error handling. * Corrected some typos * Add running average power limit (RAPL) metric collector * Add running average power limit (RAPL) metric collector * Do not mess up with the orignal configuration * * Corrected json config in numastatsMetric.md * Added some debug output to numastatsMetric.go * Fixed computing number of physical packages for non continous physical package IDs (e.g. on Ampere Altra Q80-30) * Fix kernel panic for receiver config with missing receiver type * Add receiver to gather remote IPMI sensor metrics * Added config option to add ipmi-sensors command line options * Add documentaion for IPMI receiver * Update to latest version of included go modules * Add go.mod to App dependency * Try to use common metric tags across hardware vendors * Add IPMI metric: current * remove prefix enumeration like 01-... * Add IPMI receiver example configuration to receivers.json * Minimal formating changes * Add hostlist package * Added tests for hostlist Expand() * Use package hostlist to expand a host list * Use package hostlist to expand a host list * Some servers return "ConsumedPowerWatt":65535 instead of "ConsumedPowerWatt":null * Updated to latest package versions * Do not allow unknown fields in JSON configuration file * Add workflow to customize packages to docs * NFS I/O Stats Collector (#91) * Initial version * Delete values for vanished mount points and comments * Fix for Likwid collector (#95) * Run LIKWID in separate thread and check metric type * Change LIKWID collector documentation to use 'type' instead of 'scope' * Re-initialize LIKWID after one read is missing due to lock toggle * Register cc-metric-collector at Zenodo (#93) * Add initial version of Zenodo project file * Orcid ID added * Update .zenodo.json Co-authored-by: Holger Obermaier <holger.obermaier@kit.edu> * Update ipmiMetric.go * Use latest LIKWID version for builds * Update README.md * Remove development stuff from Makefile * Add Requires(pre) to RPM SPEC file * Use curly brackets in packaging make targets * Fix for LIKWID collector with separate measurement thread and inotify watcher on the LIKWID lock (#97) Co-authored-by: Holger Obermaier <40787752+ho-ob@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Holger Obermaier <Holger.Obermaier@kit.edu>
