 If one of these conditions is met, the data is sent to the kernel module via the `data_t` struct that is defined in [`common/include/measurement.h`](common/include/measurement.h).

+It contains a field for the pre-defined sender id, the count of measurements and a pointer to an array that holds the measurements.
 
 The sent data contains the latest received measurements for each measurement id.
 
 ### Kernel module
+To receive data from the userspace, the kernel creates a character device under `/dev/sibyl` where the userspace daemon writes the data to.
+The data that is written to the character device is a pointer to a `data_t` struct, on write the kernel copies the data the pointer points to into kernel space.
+
+When `data_t` is copied, it checkes if the pointer to the measurements array is not `NULL` and the count of measurements in `data_t` is not zero.
+If both applies, it also copies the data from the array pointer to the kernel space.
