Today at 1:30pm, Spencer Ogden expounded:

++ On a related note. The program I am writing to do this requires access to I/O
++ addresses, which means it needs to run as root. What is the proper way to do
++ this from userland? have daemon running which other apps can poll for
++ numbers?

To do this from userland, see ioperm (2) and outb (2) and inb (2) and some
others. IIWY, I would have a well-known pipe that the daemon writes to and
other processes read from.
