DXDA Prolog

 Name       : HCPDXDA
 Description: Define Extent data area
 DSECT      : DXDA
 Function   : Maps the contents of the Define Extent data
              area.
 Located by : HCCWADDR - The Define Extent CCW data address field
              contains the address of the define
              extent data area.
 Created by :
              Storage for this control block cannot be
              specifically allocated/deallocated using
              HCPGETST/HCPRELST.
              Paging I/O manager -
              Data area resides in the HCPPAGBK which
              is allocated by HCPRDA.
              Track cache manager -
              Data area is part of a larger free storage
              area used to build ECKD channel programs
              which is allocated in modules HCPFMU/HCPFMP.

              HCPGETST/HCPRELST.
              Paging I/O manager -
              Data area resides in the HCPPAGBK which
              is deallocated by HCPRDD.
              Track cache manager -
              Data area is part of a larger free storage
              area used to build ECKD channel programs
              which is deallocated in modules HCPFMU/HCPFMP.
 Serialized :
              Paging I/O manager -
              EXPLCKFG - The paging I/O manager uses the exposure
              block lock to serialize this data area.
              Track cache manager -
              TCMTSLK  - Track cache lock
 Comments   :
              Paging I/O manager -
              There is one define extent data area for each
              ECKD paging exposure. The data area resides
              in the HCPPAGBK (where the set paging parameter
              CCW would exist (but doesn't for ECKD devices)).
              ALL the Define Extent CCWs in the volume's PIOBKs
              contain the address of this one data area.
              Track cache manager -
              None
