 Use a Podman secret in the container either as a file or an environment variable.
 This is equivalent to the Podman `--secret` option and generally has the form `secret[,opt=opt ...]`
 
+### `Sysctl=`
+
+Configures namespaced kernel parameters for the container. The format is `Sysctl=name=value`.
+
+This is a space separated list of kernel parameters. This key can be listed multiple times.

+For example:

 ### `Tmpfs=`
 
 Mount a tmpfs in the container. This is equivalent to the Podman `--tmpfs` option, and
