To map a physical device to linear memory
you must do :

_dpmi_meminfo info;

ADDR=your physical adresse of device here 0x3FF00000;
info.address=ADDR;
info.size=size access of device (exemple frame buffer video 8 Mb)
if(__dpmi_physical_adress_mapping(&info)==-1){
    printf("Physical mapping of address 0x%x failed!\n",(unsigned int)ADDR);

}

 ADDR1=ADDR+ __djgpp_conventionnal_base; //is the virtual adress to access 
device
exemple:
*ADDR1=15; //a white pixel on screen
