9 Driver Notifications

The driver is sometimes required to send an available buffer notification to the device.
驱动程序有时需要向该设备发送一个可用的缓冲区通知。
When VIRTIO_F_NOTIFICATION_DATA has not been negotiated, this notification involves sending the virtqueue number to the device (method depending on the transport).
当VIRTIO_F_NOTIFICATION_DATA尚未协商时，此通知涉及将半虚拟队列virtqueue 队列号发送到设备（方法取决于传输）。
However, some devices benefit from the ability to find out the amount of available data in the queue without accessing the virtqueue in memory: for efficiency or as a debugging aid.
然而，一些设备受益于能够在不访问内存中的半虚拟队列virtqueue 的情况下查找队列中的可用数据量：为了提高效率或作为调试辅助工具。
To help with these optimizations, when VIRTIO_F_NOTIFICATION_DATA has been negotiated, driver notifications to the device in
