NAME       : HCPVAABK
 DESCRIPTION: ARCHITECTURE ANCHOR BLOCK
 DSECT      : VAABK        Virtual Architecture Block
 FUNCTION   : Used to anchor the RDMBK and ARDBK structures reference by
              a member of the SSI. The VAABK contains a pointer to a
              table of ARDBKs that represent the maximal architectural
              characteristics for all members of the SSI. These ARDs are
              read from the PDR or updated when a dynamic architecture
              update occurs. The VAABK also contains the member's unique
              SSI index number and its name. Embedded in the VAABK is a
              cross-system lock block (XLKBK), which is used to serialize
              relocation domain operations across the SSI.
              The VAASEQ sequence number is used to synchronize joining/
              re-joining members of the SSI cluster. Every joined member,
              once synchronized, will have the same value of VAASEQ.
 LOCATED BY : HCPARDVA -- The VAABK block is hardcoded into HCPARD at
              this externalized label.  Use an EXTRN and
              an adcon to get its address.  For example:
              L    R1,=A(HCPARDVA)
 SERIALIZED : VAAXLK which is a cross-system global lock that
              is maintained by HCPXLK.
 CREATED BY : HCPARDIN when the member IPLs
 DELETED BY : Never
 RELOCATION CONSIDERATIONS :
              This structure is not relocated. It is instantiated per
              member of the SSI.

                                        (RDMBKs). The second and third
                                        pointers are anchors for chains
                                        of RDMBKs. VAASSIP points to one

                                        this chain is the RDMSRDP field.

                                        The forward pointer for this
                                        chain is the RDMNEXT field.

                                        completes. During a global op,
                                        VAASEQ and VAASEQN are compared;
                                        if equal then VAASEQN is updated
                                        and HCPXLKUU called (opcode 4 =
                                        Work request received).
0024   36 Signed       4 VAASCPQ        Pending queue of RDMBKs defined
                                        by RELOCATION_DOMAIN statements
                                        in SYSTEM CONFIG. These are
                                        integrated or discarded during
                                        join processing. RDMNEXT is used
                                        as the forward chaining field for
                                        this queue. This is the same
                                        field used for the VAARDMP queue
                                        so an RDMBK can't be on both
                                        queues at the same time.
