kernel TCP socket routines?

i'm writing a kernel module with the goal of enabling two kernels on
two different machines to communicate with each other. my question:
is there a kernel interface to set up & work with TCP sockets? maybe
the linux/net/ipv4/af_inet.c stuff?

currently i'm just writing my own kernel socket routines which take hints
from linux/net/socket.c. it's a drag to have to do this, because i have to
mess with all the file descriptor stuff that socket.c sets up, which i don't
really need, since my module is happy to work with "struct socket"s
exclusively and keep track of them.

any help would be appreciated.
