HASHTAB Prolog
Name : HASHTAB Description: Hash Table Complex DSECT : HASHTAB Function : HASHTAB is used exclusively by file management to reduce the paging overhead when searching for a file on a read/write disk. It contains a header plus a pointer array with the address of each hyperblock associated with the disk, and a scatter index table with a 4-byte entry for each file on the disk. HASHTAB is called by the HASHTAB macro.
