This depends on what you are trying to communicate with in the
kernel. If you are already using IOKit, I would imagine an
IOUserClient would be the way to go. If you're writing a non-IOKit
kext, you may want to look in to a kernel control socket (sys/
kern_control.h).

Hi, what is the best way(s) to send variable length data (around 50
bytes or so) to a kernel extension from a user-land application?
Are there different ways to do this if the kext uses the
IOUserClient schema to talk to user-land apps? If you could also
point me to documentation or a tutorial on how to do this I would
be much obliged!
Thanks,
