Michael, I'm not sure, but it looks like you are using a logical or
where you wanted to make a bitwise or

int padState(int port) {
    return ~(*(bb[port]+3) || * (bb[port]+2) <<8); 
}

Should probably read

int padState(int port) {
    return ~(*(bb[port]+3) | * (bb[port]+2) <<8); 
}

(note the | instead of ||)

See if that helps.

Steven
