Netdata v1.47.5 is a patch release to address issues discovered since v1.47.4.

[!IMPORTANT] Not all known bug fixes were included in this patch release. Some fixes involve complex, interdependent changes that couldn’t be easily cherry-picked. These fixes are expected to be part of the next major release (v2).

This patch release provides the following bug fixes and updates:

• Fixed an issue where the build process incorrectly checked for sys/capability.h on non-Linux platforms, potentially leading to build failures on FreeBSD systems (#18849, @ilyam8)
• Added “index” label to GPU charts for easier metric grouping (go.d/nvidia_smi) (#18833, @ilyam8)
• Added delay for collection of virtual network interface statistics. This prevents the creation of unnecessary charts for interfaces that may be mapped to containers (proc/proc_net_dev) (#18812, @ilyam8)
• To ensure timely node registration on parent servers with many children, the node state update is now scheduled after context loading. This prevents archived nodes from appearing offline in the Cloud (#18795, @stelfrag)
• Fixed the storage of repeat fields in the alert hash table to ensure accurate handling of recurring alerts #18760, @stelfrag
• Improved network listeners discovery to handle cases where the local-listeners binary consistently times out. The module now includes a mechanism to gracefully exit after multiple consecutive timeouts, preventing unnecessary resource consumption (go.d.plugin) (#18757, #18774 @ilyam8)
• Fixed sysctl arcstats.p failure on FreeBSD 14 (freebsd.plugin) (#18748, #18758 @ilyam8)
