        RCCCPUAA:  Array of CPU addresses for online processors
        Function   :  Used to get the CPU address of a CPU with a
                   given PFXINDEX. The PFXINDEX divided by 2 is
                   the displacement of a CPU's entry in this
                   array.  VMDHPLDV can also be used to find a
                   CPU's  entry in this array due to the direct
                   relationship (VMDHDVSH) between VMDHPLDV and
                   PFXINDEX for a given CPU.  Finally, since
                   VMDHPLDV is just the displacement of the
                   PLDV in the array of PLDVs (HCPDSVST), the
                   address of a PLDV can be used to index into
                   this array as well.  The following are useful
                   relationships:
                    1) VMDHPLDV = addr(PLDV) - addr(HCPDSVST)
                    2) PFXINDEX = VMDHPLDV / 2**VMDHDVSH
                    3) RCCCPUAA index = PFXINDEX / 2
        Serialized :
                   This array should be changed only when the
                   VARY lock is held or for the IPL processor
                   at initialization time.
                   No serialization needed to examine an entry.
                   When an entry in the array is being examined,
                   a value of x'FFFF' means the processor is no
                   longer available.  Any value other than
                   x'FFFF' means either that the processor is
                   available or that the processor has been
                   varied off but the 2 minute wait interval
                   before its storage is released has not
                   expired.  Do not assume that the processor
                   is available just because its entry in this
                   array is other than x'FFFF'.
008C  140 Signed       2 RCCCPUAA (64)  CPU address array
        STSI response data areas.
        Function   :  A managed, in memory copy of STSI output.
                   The following STSI responses are maintained:
                   1.1.1 and 1.2.2.
                   For STSI 1.1.1 and 1.2.2, an additional pair
                   of data areas is maintained that contains
                   the most recent responses with non-transient
                   states indicated. See SSI1TRNS and HCPSSICC.
                   These are needed for Diagnose x'2E0'.
                   References to these data areas during CP
                   initialization must test the pointers to
                   ensure they are initialized (nonzero pointer)
                   before using the response areas.
                   HCPSSIBK maps the STSI responses.
        Serialized :
                   These data areas are updated only during
                   system initialization while running on a
                   single processor, or later while running on
                   the SYSTEM VMDBK.
                   Each time the STSI responses are updated, a
                   new data area is allocated and the pointers
                   below are updated. The prior response area
                   is released by an MPDFR call to HCPSSIRL to
                   allow existing references to continue to use
                   the old response areas until their next loss
                   of control.
                   No serialization is provided to consumers of
                   these data areas that allows access over a
                   loss of control. The STSI response area may
                   have been released during the loss of control.
                   No form of serialization can provide a
                   self-consistency guarantee for the pair of
                   responses for STSI 1.1.1 and 1.2.2 since
                   changes may occur between the STSI instruction
                   invocations that affect values reported in
                   both STSI responses. For example, changes to
                   capability values reported by STSI 1.2.2 may
                   be explained by corresponding changes to CCR
                   and CAI values reported by STSI 1.1.1.

        RCCEMSxx:  EMSBK Cleanup Counts and Type flags
        Function   :  Track statistics for cleanup of EMSBKs found
                   on the PFXPG of a processor during VARY
                   processing. The individual counts are for
                   different points in the processing of VARY
                   OFF PROC and VARY ON PROC. If the EMSBKs are
                   cleaned up after the HCPMPCFL processing,
                   then the EMSBKs may have been waiting to be
                   processed for 2 minutes or more. This should
                   be avoided because the result will be that
                   the tasks waiting for completion of HCPSGP's
                   processing will appear to hang while the
                   EMSBK is on the PFXEMSAN queue. Currently,
                   this is only the case for HCPSGPNC's callers
                   indicated by RCCEMSNF.RCCEMSNC being on.
                   There should be a count field and flag byte
                   for each caller of HCPSGPDR.

        RCCLFTIM:  Array of CPU-Measurement Facility "counter
                   lifetime" values.
        Function   :  Used to identify separate "lifetimes" for
                   CPU-Measurement Facility counters.  This
                   array is indexed by CPU address shifted 2
                   bits left (multiplied by 4).  These are
                   monotonically incrementing values that
                   indicate when a new "lifetime" begins.
                   Cumulative counter values from two different
                   "lifetimes" should not be used to compute
                   delta values.  New "lifetimes" logically begin
                   any time the counters are reset to zero.
                   For our purposes, we will define a new
                   "lifetime" to begin when we activate CPU-
                   Measurement Facility counters for a given
                   CPU.  The consequence of this is that we will
                   start a new "lifetime" when monitor
                   collection of the counters is stopped and
                   restarted, even if the counters were not
                   reset to zeroes.
        Serialized :
                   This array is serialized by processor local
                   serialization.  Each CPU will only ever
                   update its own entry.
012C  300 Signed       4 RCCLFTIM (64)  Counter lifetime array
        CPU-Measurement Facility buffers
        Function   :  Per CPU pointers to buffers containing the
                   most recent output to Query Counter
                   Information (QCTRI) and Query Sampling
                   Information (QSI).  These pointers are
                   indexed by CPU address.  A value of zero
                   indicates that this CPU has never issued a
                   QCTRI or QSI instruction.  The first time
                   a CPU issues the instruction, it will
                   allocate the buffer and store it into this
                   array.  All subsequent executions of the
                   instruction will reuse the buffer.  These
                   buffers persist as debug information and are
                   never released, once allocated.
        Serialized :
                   This array is serialized by processor local
                   serialization.  Each CPU will only ever
                   update its own entry.  Initially, when a
                   CPU's entry is zero, it will allocate a
                   buffer and store the address in its entry. On
                   subsequent uses, it will find a non-zero
                   value and reuse its buffer.

        STSI 15.1.x response data area & system topology fields
        Function   :  To save System Topology (STSI 15.1.x) data
                   and counters related to how often the data
                   has been updated.  A lock is defined as these
                   fields can only be updated when the lock is
                   held exclusive and can only be read/copied
                   when the lock is held shared.
                   System Topology data is saved in storage for
                   1st level CP systems.  Periodically, CP polls
                   (via PTF FC 2) to determine if the system
                   topology has changed. If it has, STSI 15.1.x
                   is issued to update the System Topology data
                   in storage.
                   When monitor needs to cut a system topology
                   configuration record (D1R26) or an event
                   record (D5R14), the fields are copied while
                   the lock is held shared to ensure the values
                   are not being updated at the time.  The lock
                   is released before the copied data is passed
                   to the monitor routine because monitor might
                   lose control while processing the data.
                   HCPSSIBK maps the STSI responses including
                   the first part of the STSI 15.1.x response.
        Serialized :
                   The following data areas are serialized by
                   the RCCTOPLK lock.  This lock needs to be
                   held as follows to ensure these fields are
                   kept in sync and apply to the same instance
                   of system topology (STSI 15.1.x) response:
