SCABK Prolog
NAME : HCPSCABK DESCRIPTION: System Control Area for Interpretive Execution DSECT : SCABK FUNCTION : Map SCA for SIE virtual MP support LOCATED BY : SIEISCAA in all VMDBKs of the virtual configuration points to label SCASTART in this block. *** NOTES : SIEISCAA does NOT point to the front of the block. CREATED BY : HCPBIESC DELETED BY : HCPBIESC, HCPBIESR SERIALIZED : The existence of the SCABK, and the contents of its pointer, SIEISCAA, are serialized by console function mode. SCAIPLOK is a formal lock managed by HCPLCKAI and HCPLCKRI entry points. SCAMCN is updated under Console-Function Mode. SCAXCALL is updated either in Console-Function Mode, or by compare-and-swap exclusive from CFM. RELOCATION CONSIDERATIONS : This control block is relocated as part of a live guest relocation (LGR). The bits and fields that need to be relocated are defined in the corresponding LGRSCABK COPY file. Whenever changes are made to this control block, consideration must be given to any effects these changes will have on a relocation. If any new fields or bits are defined, they may need to be relocated. If existing bits or fields are changed, corresponding modifications may be required in the LGR version of this control block. Consider also the effects of these changes on a relocation involving a back-level release of CP. COMMENTS : The SCABK maps the architected System Control Area for SIE, used in support of virtual multiprocessing. In addition to the architected block, the SCABK contains a header for CP use. The size of the block is variable, depending on the maximum CPU address defined in the virtual configuration. Because architecture requires a quadword boundary for the SCA, an extra doubleword is allocated, and the SCABK is installed beginning either 0 or 8 bytes into the free-storage area, as needed to satisfy the boundary requirement. To simplify storage allocation, the actual start of the block is saved in the CP prefix portion of the SCABK. The SCABK is located by pointer SIEISCAA in all VMDBKs of the virtual configuration. SIEISCAA points to the architected SCA, at label SCASTART, NOT to the CP header at the front of the SCABK, nor to the start of the free-storage block.
