Netdata spamming logs with

Jun 13 16:29:51 192.168.4.1 netdata[9824]: PROCFILE: Cannot open file '/proc/sysvipc/shm'

for six minutes at a time, every 20 minutes. For instance, it starts at
04:42:25 and ends at 04:48:51 in a repeated cycle that would start again at 5:02. I can’t tell why it started, and the cycle is based on netdata.

But /proc/sysvipc/shm isn’t there and I’m not sure what creates it. This only started sometime after I upgraded to 5.0

Turris OS 5.0 is released!

yep, i had the same. You have to modify the netdata.conf in /etc/netdata . I changed this part :

# per plugin configuration

[plugin:proc]
	# netdata server resources = yes
	# /proc/pagetypeinfo = no
	# /proc/stat = yes
	# /proc/uptime = yes
	# /proc/loadavg = yes
	# /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail = yes
	# /proc/interrupts = yes
	# /proc/softirqs = yes
	# /proc/vmstat = yes
	# /proc/meminfo = yes
	# /sys/kernel/mm/ksm = yes
	# /sys/block/zram = yes
	# /sys/devices/system/edac/mc = yes
	# /sys/devices/system/node = yes
	# /proc/net/dev = yes
	# /proc/net/sockstat = yes
	# /proc/net/sockstat6 = yes
	# /proc/net/netstat = yes
	# /proc/net/snmp = yes
	# /proc/net/snmp6 = yes
	# /proc/net/sctp/snmp = yes
	# /proc/net/softnet_stat = yes
	# /proc/net/ip_vs/stats = yes
	# /proc/net/stat/conntrack = yes
	# /proc/net/stat/synproxy = yes

	# /proc/mdstat = yes
	# /proc/net/rpc/nfsd = yes
	# /proc/net/rpc/nfs = yes
	# /proc/spl/kstat/zfs/arcstats = yes
	 /sys/fs/btrfs = no
	 ipc = no
	# /sys/class/power_supply = yes

More details https://github.com/openwrt/packages/issues/8968. The config file is generated dynamically depending on the device and needs to be modified manually as @DIKKEHENK said. Those messages are harmless even though it you can see it a lot in system log.
