The first thing that comes to my mind while thinking of this is sockets, so is there a sockets-like interface which could be used to transfer large amounts of constantly generated data from kernel to a userland application? Any advice on its usage and/or examples? --------------enig141DD0BF8C47E51030DBE612 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.4 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFr/MQldnAQVacBcgRAhnlAJ4o3+Va0uOMZ1gCvorUL7z6kWav+gCgi/D7 Q1OIwNRMYGqIC47xeVNxTAc= =b2f3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig141DD0BF8C47E51030DBE612--
