Yes, an aquisition system. The real work has not started yet, I was just trying to figure out
how to go about it.

It'd be best to know what you're trying to do. But generally, pushing to
the kernel from userspace (yeah, I know, twice the fun) is better than
even remotely thinking about using sys_* from in-kernel. Rule is:
* If you're using sys_<insert function here>, it's wrong.
But tell us more about what you're trying to do. Do you just need a
userspace library to parse some config data and shove it into the kernel
or do you need a high performance, high throughput data stream for some
highly reliable hardware acquisition system?
