Linux NASM OUTSB SegFault

Question
I'm trying to write byte 0xff
to the parallel port at 0x378
. It compiles and links without issue, but segfaults at the OUTSB
instruction.
section .text
global _start
_err_exit:
mov eax, 1
mov ebx, 1
int 80h
_start:
mov eax, 101 ; ioperm
mov ebx, 0x378 ; Parallel port addr
mov ecx, 2 ; number of bytes to 'unlock'
mov edx, 1 ; enable
int 80h
mov esi, 0xff
mov dx, 0x378
outsb
mov eax, 1 ; exit
mov ebx, 0
int 80h
If I step through it with GDB and check the registers just before the OUTSB
instruction, it doesn't look like there is anything in the DX register? or dx
== edx
in 32bit?
(gdb) info registers
eax 0x0 0
ecx 0x2 2
edx 0x378 888
ebx 0x378 888
esp 0xffffd810 0xffffd810
ebp 0x0 0x0
esi 0xff 255
edi 0x0 0
eip 0x8048090 0x8048090 <_start+36>
eflags 0x246 [ PF ZF IF ]
cs 0x23 35
ss 0x2b 43
ds 0x2b 43
es 0x2b 43
fs 0x0 0
gs 0x0 0
What am I doing wrong here?

EDIT:
The C version of the program works:
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int addr = 0x378;
int result = ioperm(addr,5,1);
outb(0xff, addr);
}
No correct solution
