OUTB(2)			   Linux Programmer's Manual		       OUTB(2)

NAME
       outb, outw, outl, outsb, outsw, outsl, inb, inw, inl, insb, insw, insl,
       outb_p, outw_p, outl_p, inb_p, inw_p, inl_p - port I/O

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 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
       order from most DOS implementations.
