I have found this code:

and was planning to use it as a basis, but use UDP for communication.
What is a proper way to do UDP communication from a kernel module?

Best regards and thank you all for the great work you are doing on Linux
Why not use L2TP?  It can operate over UDP (v2 or v3) or directly over IP 
if needed (v3).  L2TPv3 also supports ethernet pseudo-wires.
