Depending on the driver for the accelerometer. Most act like a input device and will populate events when the acceleration changes. But there are different drivers which simply propagate their current state via sysfs, I have also seen drivers which where pure user space implementation. It basicly depends on the driver you are using. If you don't need to do it in the kernel you could use a user space process which uses the android sensor API.
