Not quite all. The variables tcp_keepcnt and tcp_maxpersistidle are not accessible via sysctl (the latter is not directly related to the current keepalives issue, but it shares the same default value - TCPTV_KEEP_IDLE - as tcp_keepidle). There's also the the minor nit that there's no documentation. RTSL may be OK for developers, but it's not really appropriate for end users. This is aggravated by the timers being in 500ms units - phk tripped over this recently.
