Paraphrasing from the
official website:
Relayfs is a filesystem for the Linux operating system that makes per-CPU kernel buffers look like files (that can be mmap'ed and directly read) from non-kernel (i.e., normal) programs. This makes it easy for non-kernel programs to get potentially large amounts of data from the kernel.
[edit] Status
Relayfs was included in Andrew Morton's mm kernel tree from 2.6.11-mm3 until 2.6.15-mm3, when it was added to the mainline kernel version 2.6.14 [1].
