+.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
+.BI ins x
+copy values into memory; functions
+.BI outs x
+copy values from memory.
+The
+.I count
+is in elements, not bytes.
