Name
rtapi_outb, rtapi_inb - Perform hardware I/O
Notes
The I/O address should be within a region previously allocated by rtapi_request_region. Otherwise,
another real-time module or the Linux kernel might attempt to access the I/O region at the same time.
Realtime Considerations
May be called from init/cleanup code and from within realtime tasks. Not available in non-realtime
components.
Return Value
rtapi_inb returns the byte read from the given I/O port
