+
+The I<dpdkevents plugin> collects events from DPDK such as link status of
+network ports and Keep Alive status of DPDK logical cores.
+In order to get Keep Alive events following requirements must be met:
+- DPDK >= 16.07
+- support for Keep Alive implemented in DPDK application. More details can
+be found here: http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/sample_app_ug/keep_alive.html

+=item B<SendEventOnUpdate> I<true|false>

+If set to true link status value will be dispatched only when it is
+different from previously read value. This is an optional argument - default
+value is true.
+
+=item B<EnabledPortMask> I<Mask>
+
+A hexidecimal bit mask of the DPDK ports which should be enabled. A mask
+of 0x0 means that all ports will be disabled. A bitmask of all F's means
+that all ports will be enabled. This is an optional argument - by default
+all ports are enabled.
+
+=item B<PortName> I<Name>
+
+A string containing an optional name for the enabled DPDK ports. Each PortName
+option should contain only one port name; specify as many PortName options as
+desired. Default naming convention will be used if PortName is blank. If there
+are less PortName options than there are enabled ports, the default naming
+convention will be used for the additional ports.
+
+=item B<SendNotification> I<true|false>
+
+If set to true, link status notifications are sent, instead of link status
+being collected as a statistic. This is an optional argument - default
+value is false.

+=item B<SharedMemObj> I<Mask>
+A string containing the name of the shared memory object that should be used to
+share stats from the DPDK secondary process to the collectd dpdkstat plugin.
+Defaults to dpdk_collectd_stats if no other value is configured.
=item B<EnabledPortMask> I<Mask>
Monitor events are hardware dependant. Monitoring capabilities are detected on
plugin initialization and only supported events are monitored.
+B<Note:> I<intel_rdt> plugin is using model-specific registers (MSRs), which
+require an additional capability to be enabled if collectd is run as a service.
+Please refer to I<contrib/systemd.collectd.service> file for more details.
+
B<Synopsis:>
<Plugin "intel_rdt">
Add a UPS to collect data from. The format is identical to the one accepted by
L<upsc(8)>.
+=item B<ForceSSL> B<true>|B<false>
+
+Stops connections from falling back to unsecured if an SSL connection
+cannot be established. Defaults to false if undeclared.
+
+=item B<VerifyPeer> I<true>|I<false>
+
+If set to true, requires a CAPath be provided. Will use the CAPath to find
+certificates to use as Trusted Certificates to validate a upsd server certificate.
+If validation of the upsd server certificate fails, the connection will not be
+established. If ForceSSL is undeclared or set to false, setting VerifyPeer to true
+will override and set ForceSSL to true.
+
+=item B<CAPath> I/path/to/certs/folder
+
+If VerifyPeer is set to true, this is required. Otherwise this is ignored.
+The folder pointed at must contain certificate(s) named according to their hash.
+Ex: XXXXXXXX.Y where X is the hash value of a cert and Y is 0. If name collisions
+occur because two different certs have the same hash value, Y can be incremented
+in order to avoid conflict. To create a symbolic link to a certificate the following
+command can be used from within the directory where the cert resides:
+
+C<ln -s some.crt ./$(openssl x509 -hash -noout -in some.crt).0>
+
+Alternatively, the package openssl-perl provides a command C<c_rehash> that will
+generate links like the one described above for ALL certs in a given folder.
+Example usage:
+C<c_rehash /path/to/certs/folder>

Socket "/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock"
Interfaces "br0" "veth0"
SendNotification false
+ DispatchValues true
</Plugin>
The plugin provides the following configuration options:
If set to true, OVS link notifications (interface status and OVS DB connection
terminate) are sent to collectd. Default value is false.
+=item B<DispatchValues> I<true|false>
+
+Dispatch the OVS DB interface link status value with configured plugin interval.
+Defaults to true. Please note, if B<SendNotification> and B<DispatchValues>
+options are false, no OVS information will be provided by the plugin.
+

B<Note:> By default, the global interval setting is used within which to
and the sensible setting is a multiple of the B<ReadThreads> value.
If you are not sure, just use the default setting.
+=item B<ExtraStats> B<string>
+
+Report additional extra statistics. The default is no extra statistics, preserving
+the previous behaviour of the plugin. If unsure, leave the default. If enabled,
+allows the plugin to reported more detailed statistics about the behaviour of
+Virtual Machines. The argument is a space-separated list of selectors.
+Currently supported selectors are:
+B<disk> report extra statistics like number of flush operations and total
+service time for read, write and flush operations.
+B<pcpu> report the physical user/system cpu time consumed by the hypervisor, per-vm.
