That's because _outp() and _inp() don't exist. However outp() and inp()
(without the underscores) do exist and can be used in their place.
Alternatively, you could check on outportb(), inportb() etc. which
are placed in-line in code instead of as functions (and are thus
faster and more space efficient).
