socket programming in module HOWTO?

hallo all,
My group cerrently working on the 'process migration',so for that we
currently doing socket programming for that we want to do the socket
programming in module.Because the linux kernel is preepmtive so after
doing listen for incoming request from client can kernel performs
another task except other than the listen.

You're really going about this in the wrong way. If you want to wait for
tcp connections, while I suppose its _possible_ to do from kernel space,
you'll really wind up with a better, more stable application if you do
this from user space. I'd investigate the possibility of instead
writing a module, or understanding how current driver modules can report
information to you in user space relevant to a process you wish to
migrate. Then you can just write a user space app to manage the
connections and send the relevant data to peer nodes in the system.
