Manage /etc/sysctl.conf

Manage the current configuration of /etc/sysctl.conf while keeping running settings in sync.

Note: This policy currently only ensures that specified settings are present. No statement is made about settings not specified. Thus configuration in the file will remain untouched if the key is not specified in the desired data. For example, if vm.swappiness is set to 10 in /etc/sysctl.conf and vm.swappiness is not specified the desired configuration data the existing entry for vm.swappiness will be left untouched.
