Ed Santiago 4675103c22 Man pages: refactor common options: --sysctl
As promised, harder and harder to review. Please take your time
with this one.

For IPC, I went with the list form. For net, I used the single-
sentence form instead of a one-element list.

The container/pod diffs are clumsy, sorry. Maybe it's time to
start thinking of a more flexible conditional mechanism, but
I'd really like to avoid that so I hope this is acceptable.

In the first sentence I went with 'namespaced' (final 'd') in
all instances. I also got rid of the 'new' in 'new pod' in
pod-clone.

--sysctl=name=value

Configure namespaced kernel parameters <<at runtime|for all containers in the pod>>.

For the IPC namespace, the following sysctls are allowed:

  • kernel.msgmax
  • kernel.msgmnb
  • kernel.msgmni
  • kernel.sem
  • kernel.shmall
  • kernel.shmmax
  • kernel.shmmni
  • kernel.shm_rmid_forced
  • Sysctls beginning with fs.mqueue.*

Note: <<if you use the --ipc=host option|if the ipc namespace is not shared within the pod>>, the above sysctls are not allowed.

For the network namespace, only sysctls beginning with net.* are allowed.

Note: <<if you use the --network=host option|if the network namespace is not shared within the pod>>, the above sysctls are not allowed.
