Should we not do this, we'll have to live with the consequences of supporting the full swoop of sysctls are boot params, whatever consequences those may be.Of course when the first user tries to set some particular sysctl as boot param and finds and reports it doesn't work as intended, then it can be fixed or blacklisted and it can't break anyone else?
Absolutely agreed. I would be really careful to not overengineer this whole thing. -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs
