+.SH 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.
+.PP
+They are primarily designed for internal kernel use,
+but can be used from user space.
+.\" , given the following information
+.\" in addition to that given in
+.\" .BR outb (9).
+.PP
+You must compile with \fB\-O\fP or \fB\-O2\fP or similar.
+The functions
+are defined as inline macros, and will not be substituted in without
+optimization enabled, causing unresolved references at link time.
+.PP
+You use
+.BR ioperm (2)
+or alternatively
+.BR iopl (2)
+to tell the kernel to allow the user space application to access the
+I/O ports in question.
+Failure to do this will cause the application
+to receive a segmentation fault.
+.SH VERSIONS
+.BR outb ()
+and friends are hardware-specific.
+The
+.I value
+argument is passed first and the
+.I port
+argument is passed second,
+which is the opposite order from most DOS implementations.
+.SH STANDARDS
+None.
