DESCRIPTION
This family of functions is used to do low-level port input and output.
The out* functions do port output, the in* functions do port input; the
b-suffix functions are byte-width and the w-suffix functions word-
width; the _p-suffix functions pause until the I/O completes.
They are primarily designed for internal kernel use, but can be used
from user space.
You must compile with -O or -O2 or similar. The functions are defined
as inline macros, and will not be substituted in without optimization
enabled, causing unresolved references at link time.
You use ioperm(2) or alternatively iopl(2) to tell the kernel to allow
the user space application to access the I/O ports in question. Fail-
ure to do this will cause the application to receive a segmentation
fault.
CONFORMING TO
outb() and friends are hardware-specific. The value argument is passed
first and the port argument is passed second, which is the opposite or-
der from most DOS implementations.
