Here is a script I got from the "honorable" Mark Leith. Run this as SYS.

set echo on
spool parm1
select

a.ksppinm "Parameter",
a.ksppdesc "Description",
b.ksppstvl "Session Value",
c.ksppstvl "Instance Value"

from

x$ksppi a,
x$ksppcv b,
x$ksppsv c

where
a.indx = b.indx
and a.indx = c.indx
and a.ksppinm like '/_%' escape '/'
/
spool off

You know this Chinese proverb, about giving a man a fish and feeding him once vs teaching him how to fish, and feeding him for all his life? The place where you should angle is V$FIXED_VIEW_DEFINITION, it will tell you how GV$PARAMETERS is built, which is the X$ table it accesses - and how it filters undocumented parameters out.
