In trying to parse this again, I'm even more confused.
What are you trying to do? Create a socket in userspace and then allow
your kext to read/write on that socket? Or are you trying to
communicate between your process and your kext?
If the former, then use descriptor passing (though you will need a
process in which to use the descriptors).
If the latter, then just use sysctl to communicate. It will work fine
for most things; you don't need or want the overhead of a socket in the
majority of cases.
