You can see the kernel parameters in /etc/sysctl.conf file in Linux.
sysctl -a print all the Kernel parameters.we can change the kernel parameters using
the /etc/sysctl.conf file ,which will need reboot or sysctl -p command to take
effect.We can temporarily change the kernel parameters by echoing to the /proc
directory(be careful while doing this,unknown supplied parameters will cuase crash
to the kernel).
