getpid() doesn't seem to be available to a kext (I try to include <unistd.h> but it fails).

Can I use <sys/proc.h> and extern_proc with current_proc() to get at the pid?

Close. Use proc_selfpid() from sys/proc.h, there is no need to look at the proc struct. The proc_* KPI accessors access the proc structure for you, so that the kernel developers are free to change its layout without breaking kernel extensions.
