Issues similar to this one have already been raised, but it is not the same problem than in #1 or #25 as the sensor is built here with the patched version of libpfm4 and I have been using the same sensor's container image successfully on other servers.
I suspect it has something to do with the version of the kernel and / or the generation of cpu used, but I couldn't find anything obvious in the libpfm4 source.
