EXTBK Prolog

 NAME       : HCPEXTBK
 DESCRIPTION: Extent Block
 DSECT      : EXTBK
 FUNCTION   : Describes a group of contiguous cylinders or slots
              on a CP-owned DASD containing the same allocation type.
 LOCATED BY : VEXPGEXT
              VEXSPEXT
              VEXTDEXT
              VEXDREXT
              VEXPEEXT
              VEX1SEXT
              EXTMYEXT
              EXTANYEX
 CREATED BY : HCPRDX when a CP-owned device is attached
              to the system
 DELETED BY : HCPRDD when a CP-owned device is detached
              from the system
 REFERENCES : HCPMSABK  - Map for Slot Allocation
              HCPMDISK  - Minidisk block
 SERIALIZED : Allocation locks
 NOTES      : EXTBKs of type PERM use only the following fields:
              EXTVEXBK, EXTSTART, EXTEND, EXTANYEX, and EXTMYEXT.
              EXTBKs are not created for type PARM or UNDF, as
              they are not needed in the internal representation
              of the allocation map.

In cylinders for E/CKD TDSK and DRCT extents. In slots for E/CKD PAGE and SPOL extents and for all FBA extents. Not used for PERM. 0010 16 Signed 4 EXTHIGH Highest slot or cylinder in use in this extent. Used only by TDSK and DRCT extents. This number is relative to the start of the volume. Query Alloc will actually report this number relative to the start of the extent. 0014 20 Signed 4 EXTSTRCT Pointer to a structure which further describes what parts of the extent are in use. For PAGE and SPOL this points to a MSABK. For TDSK, this points to an MDISK block. Equals 0 for DRCT and PERM extents. 0018 24 Signed 4 EXTANYEX Pointer to next extent on volume of any type.

Same as EXTSTART for FBA devices. 0024 36 Signed 4 EXTENSLT Slot number of last slot in EXTBK. Same as EXTEND for FBA devices. 0028 40 Signed 4 EXTFREE Number of free slots in this extent when stopped allocating from this extent.
