New Benchmarks

Added Video Transcoding Benchmark

Bug Fixes

DjangoBench:

Fixed patching logic to make sure patches were properly applied when installing on Ubuntu.
Fixed the bug that Ctrl+C might not end the benchmark.
Made sure the cleanup command will succeed regardless of the status of kill.

FeedSim:

Solved unstable multi-instance runs on large core count CPUs and prevented fall-back to fixed-QPS runs, thus saving benchmark execution time.
Fixed potential un-synchronized final 5-min benchmarking phase among mutliple instances.

In Perf monitoring hook:

Handled topdown errors to prevent blocking results reporting.

TaoBench:

Ensured TaoBench client would be linked with the openssl 1.1 that came with tao_bench package and not the openssl in the system.

Feature Improvements

DjangoBench

Added Standalone mode to enable running DjangoBench on single node
Added a parameter bind_ip to DjangoBench's db role so that we will be able to bind Cassandra DB to a custom IP address using Benchpress CLI command.
Raised siege concurrency upper limit to 1024 to make sure it will scale up.
Try infer a JAVA_HOME before starting Cassandra to reduce the chance of Cassandra not being able to find JVM

TaoBench

Added Standalone mode to enable running TaoBench on single machine
Introduced bind_cpu and bind_mem parameters in TaoBench to let user choose whether to bind NUMA nodes

Perf Monitoring hook

Also monitor CPU frequency reported by cpuinfo_cur_freq in addition to scaling_cur_freq.
Monitor power consumption if the system supports power reporting through hwmon.
Use ARM's topdown-tool to monitor non-NVIDIA ARM CPU's micro-arch and topdown telemetries
