+ </Plugin>
+
+The C<connectivity plugin> queries interface status using netlink (man 7 netlink) which provides information about network interfaces via the NETLINK_ROUTE family (man 7 rtnetlink). The plugin translates the value it receives to collectd's internal format and, depending on the write plugins you have loaded, it may be written to disk or submitted to another instance.
+The plugin listens to interfaces enumerated within the plugin configuration (see below). If no interfaces are listed, then the default is for all interfaces to be monitored.
+
+This example shows C<connectivity plugin> monitoring all interfaces.

+
+This example shows C<connectivity plugin> monitoring 2 interfaces, "eth0" and "eth1".

=head2 Plugin C<conntrack>
This plugin collects IP conntrack statistics.

+=head2 Plugin C<gpu_nvidia>
+
+Efficiently collects various statistics from the system's NVIDIA GPUs using the
+NVML library. Currently collected are fan speed, core temperature, percent
+load, percent memory used, compute and memory frequencies, and power
+consumption.
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<GPUIndex>
+
+If one or more of these options is specified, only GPUs at that index (as
+determined by nvidia-utils through I<nvidia-smi>) have statistics collected.
+If no instance of this option is specified, all GPUs are monitored.
+
+=item B<IgnoreSelected>
+
+If set to true, all detected GPUs B<except> the ones at indices specified by
+B<GPUIndex> entries are collected. For greater clarity, setting IgnoreSelected
+without any GPUIndex directives will result in B<no> statistics being
+collected.

=head2 Plugin C<grpc>
The I<grpc> plugin provides an RPC interface to submit values to or query
if there is only one package and C<pkgE<lt>nE<gt>-coreE<lt>mE<gt>> if there is
more than one, where I<n> is the n-th core of package I<m>.
+=item B<RestoreAffinityPolicy> I<AllCPUs>|I<Restore>
+
+Reading data from CPU has side-effect: collectd process's CPU affinity mask
+changes. After reading data is completed, affinity mask needs to be restored.
+This option allows to set restore policy.
+
+B<AllCPUs> (the default): Restore the affinity by setting affinity to any/all
+CPUs.
+
+B<Restore>: Save affinity using sched_getaffinity() before reading data and
+restore it after.
+
+On some systems, sched_getaffinity() will fail due to inconsistency of the CPU
+set size between userspace and kernel. In these cases plugin will detect the
+unsuccessful call and fail with an error, preventing data collection.
+Most of configurations does not need to save affinity as Collectd process is
+allowed to run on any/all available CPUs.
+
+If you need to save and restore affinity and get errors like 'Unable to save
+the CPU affinity', setting 'possible_cpus' kernel boot option may also help.
