Use DMA based send operation from the transmit buffer instead of the iowrite8_rep based datagram send when DMA datagrams are supported. The outgoing datagram is sent as inline data in the VMCI transmit buffer. Once the header has been configured, the send is initiated by writing the lower 32 bit of the buffer base address to the VMCI_DATA_OUT_LOW_ADDR register. Only then will the device process the header and the datagram itself. Following that, the driver busy waits (it isn't possible to sleep on the send path) for the header busy flag to change - indicating that the send is complete.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
