.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.I x86
|
|
implementation provides functions to allow kernel code
|
|
written in C to access the I/O address space.
|
|
On several other architectures such as the PowerPC and Strongarm,
|
|
the platform-dependent code provides similar functions to access
|
|
devices with an I/O space interface, even when that is memory mapped, to encourage portability of device drivers.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.IR Inb ,
|
|
.I ins
|
|
and
|
|
.I inl
|
|
apply the corresponding hardware instruction to fetch the next byte, short or long
|
|
from the I/O
|
|
.IR port .
|
|
.IR Outb ,
|
|
.I outs
|
|
and
|
|
.I outl
|
|
output a
|
|
.I value
|
|
to the I/O
|
|
.IR port .
|
|
.PP
|
|
The remaining functions transfer
|
|
.I count
|
|
bytes, shorts, or longs using programmed I/O between a memory
|
|
.I address
|
|
and
|
|
.IR port .
|
|
Functions
|
|
.B insX
|
|
copy values into memory; functions
|
|
.B outsX
|
|
copy values from memory.
|
|
The
|
|
.I count
|
|
is in elements, not bytes.
