Rickslab-gpu-utils

* Fixed a compatibility issue with matplotlib 3.x. Converted time string to a datetime object.
* Display version information for pandas, matplotlib, and numpy with the --about option for amdgpu-plot

* Implemented the --plot option for amdgpu-monitor. This will display plots of critical GPU parameters that update at an interval defined by the --sleep N option.
* Errors in reading non-critical parameters will now show a warning the first time and are disabled for future reads.
* Fixed a bug in implementation of compatibility checks and improved usage of try/except.

* Implemented amdgpu-pac feature for type 2 Freq/Voltage controlled GPUs, which includes the Radeon VII.
* Implemented the amdgpu-pac --force_write option, which writes all configuration parameters to the GPU, even if unchanged. The default behavior is changed to now only write changed configuration parameters.
* Indicate number of changes to be written by PAC, and if no changes, don't execute bash file. Display execute complete message in terminal, and update messages in PAC message box.
* Implemented a new GPU type 0, which represent some older cards whose p-states can not be changed.
* Tuned amdgpu-pac window format.

* Fixed and improved Python/Kernel compatibility checks.
* Added Python2 compatible utility to check amdgpu-utils compatibility.
* Fixed confusing mode/level fileptr names.
* Removed CUSTOM PPM mode until I figure out syntax.
* Implemented classification of card type based on how it implements frequency/voltage control. This is reported by amdgpu-ls and alters the behavior of both amdgpu-pac and amdgpu-monitor.
* Changed dpkg error to a warning to handle custom driver installs.
* Initial User Guide - Need contributors!

* Implemented a message box in amdgpu-pac to indicate details of PAC execution and indicate if sudo is pending credential entry.
* Implement more robust classification of card compatibility and only use compatible GPUs in the utilities.
* Official release of amdgpu-pciid which updates a local list of GPU names from the official pci.ids website.
* Optimized refresh of data by moving static items to a different function and only read those that are dynamic.
* Power Cap and Fan parameters can be reset by setting to -1 in the amdgpu-pac interface.
* Initial basic functionality for Radeon VII GPU!

* Major bug fix in the way HWMON directory was determined. This fixes an issue in not seeing sensor files correctly when a some other card is resident in a PCIe slot.
* Implemented logging option --log for amdgpu-monitor. A red indicator will indicate active logging and the target filename.
* Implemented energy meter in amdgpu-monitor.
* Implemented the ability to check the GPU extracted ID in a pci.ids file for correct model name. Implemented a function to extract only AMD information for the pci.ids file and store in the file amd_pci_id.txt which is included in this distribution.
* Optimized long, short, and decoded GPU model names.
* Alpha release of a utility to update device decode data from the pci.ids website.
