getting status of I/O devices




  hi,

   I just wanted to know how to poll for the status of I/O devices from 
kernel module. Do we use the same instructions like intb() and other 
commnads to see whether the status of a device is busy or not. And how do 
u do it for netwrork cards.

 thanks,
raghu.
