The sys module provides information about the available functions on the minion

`salt.modules.sysmod.` `argspec`(module='')

  Return the argument specification of functions in Salt execution modules.

  CLI Example:

      salt '*' sys.argspec

`salt.modules.sysmod.` `doc`(*args)

      salt '*' sys.doc sys
      salt '*' sys.doc sys.doc
      salt '*' sys.doc network.traceroute user.info

`salt.modules.sysmod.` `list_functions`(*args, **kwargs)
