relayfs is for that. You can now put relayfs files in any ram

But you can't twiddle relayfs with echo and cat; it's more suited to
high-bandwidth transfers than anything else, no? The idea here would
be to be able to interact with the files in /sys the same way you
always do, but provide a sort of consistency system whereby a program
_or_ sysadmin can attach its view of the /sys/hypervisor directory
tree to a particular snapshot of the system. As far as I can tell
(although I'd be happy to be proven wrong), there is no trivial way
to manually access or shellscript relayfs files, the way you can
"cat /sys/devices/<path-to-device>/dev".
