Without the need of a kernel? Perhaps I did not explain myself

And yes, there is a environment in this context, but it is feasible to
provide the information it contains through module parameters.

Thanks for the advise, but do not worry, the servers run outside the
kernel (preferably outside the host :). It is the client side what is
to be integrated into the kernel.
