Fact: osfamily

Purpose: Returns the operating system

Resolution:

  Uses the family key of the os structured fact, which itself
  maps operating systems to operating system families, such as Linux
  distribution derivatives. Adds mappings from specific operating systems
  to kernels in the case that it is relevant.

Caveats:

  This fact is completely reliant on the operatingsystem fact, and no
  heuristics are used.
