 NAME       : HCPBIOPG
 DESCRIPTION: DASD Block I/O Storage Management Block
 DSECT      : BIOPG aka BIOBG
 FUNCTION   : Contains header information and room to
              allocate I/O related control blocks for
              DIAGNOSE 18, A4, 250 and *BLOCKIO.
 LOCATED BY : BIOPGNXT and BIOPGPRV links the list together
              (caller must remember the start)
 CREATED BY : HCPDPSGP
 DELETED BY : HCPDPSRP, HCPDPSCU
 COMMENTS   : This block comes in two sizes: 2040 bytes and
              4088 bytes.  The size chosen is determined by
              the length of the request.
              The BIOPG consists of a header and available storage.
              Its used as a source for control blocks.  The HCPDPCUT
              macro will obtain storage from the BIOPG to create
              control blocks such as the IORBK and DVIOPs. This avoids
              the need to call HCPFREE for each needed control block.
              When the storage in one BIOPG is used up, another is
              obtained and linked to the previous using BIOPGNXT.
