.TH SYSCTL "8" "2020-02-27" "procps-ng" "System Administration"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
sysctl \- configure kernel parameters at runtime
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B sysctl
|
|
[\fIoptions\fR] [\fIvariable\fR[\fB=\fIvalue\fR]] [...]
|
|
.br
|
|
.B sysctl \-p
|
|
[\fIfile\fR or \fIregexp\fR] [...]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B sysctl
|
|
is used to modify kernel parameters at runtime. The parameters available
|
|
are those listed under /proc/sys/. Procfs is required for
|
|
.B sysctl
|
|
support in Linux. You can use
|
|
.B sysctl
|
|
to both read and write sysctl data.
|
|
.SH PARAMETERS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I variable
|
|
The name of a key to read from. An example is kernel.ostype. The '/'
|
|
separator is also accepted in place of a '.'.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.IR variable = value
|
|
To set a key, use the form
|
|
.IR variable = value
|
|
where
|
|
.I variable
|
|
is the key and
|
|
.I value
|
|
is the value to set it to. If the value contains quotes or characters
|
|
which are parsed by the shell, you may need to enclose the value in double
|
|
quotes.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-n\fR, \fB\-\-values\fR
|
|
Use this option to disable printing of the key name when printing values.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-e\fR, \fB\-\-ignore\fR
|
|
Use this option to ignore errors about unknown keys.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-N\fR, \fB\-\-names\fR
|
|
Use this option to only print the names. It may be useful with shells that
|
|
have programmable completion.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-q\fR, \fB\-\-quiet\fR
|
|
Use this option to not display the values set to stdout.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-w\fR, \fB\-\-write\fR
|
|
Use this option when all arguments prescribe a key to be set.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-p\fR[\fIFILE\fR], \fB\-\-load\fR[=\fIFILE\fR]
|
|
Load in sysctl settings from the file specified or /etc/sysctl.conf if none
|
|
given. Specifying \- as filename means reading data from standard input.
|
|
Using this option will mean arguments to
|
|
.B sysctl
|
|
are files, which are read in the order they are specified.
|
|
The file argument may be specified as regular expression.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-a\fR, \fB\-\-all\fR
|
|
Display all values currently available.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-\-deprecated\fR
|
|
Include deprecated parameters to
|
|
.B \-\-all
|
|
values listing.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-b\fR, \fB\-\-binary\fR
|
|
Print value without new line.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-\-system\fR
|
|
Load settings from all system configuration files. Files are read from
|
|
directories in the following list in given order from top to bottom.
|
|
Once a file of a given filename is loaded, any file of the same name
|
|
in subsequent directories is ignored.

.TP
|

\fB\-r\fR, \fB\-\-pattern\fR \fIpattern\fR
|
|
Only apply settings that match
|
|
.IR pattern .
|
|
The
|
|
.I pattern
|
|
uses extended regular expression syntax.

|
|
.SH DEPRECATED PARAMETERS
|
|
The
|
|
.B base_reachable_time
|
|
and
|
|
.B retrans_time
|
|
are deprecated. The
|
|
.B sysctl
|
|
command does not allow changing values of these
|
|
parameters. Users who insist to use deprecated kernel interfaces should push values
|
|
to /proc file system by other means. For example:
|
|
.PP
|
|
echo 256 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/neigh/eth0/base_reachable_time
