This is not currently possible without larger modifications to camkes. You would need the ability to describe a connection that gave access to a particular virtual address range of another component. Dataports are implemented by inserting symbols into the ELF that the system intializer knows to fill in with shared memory frames. The linker is left to allocate a virtual address range for this that is private to each component. Camkes ensures that component's memories are isolated by default so there is not an easy way to allow a component access to an arbitrary address of another.
