 NAME       : HCPPSST
 DESCRIPTION: PTE Serialization Status Tracking block
 DSECT      : PSST
 FUNCTION   : A PTE Serialization Status Tracking block
              describes the PTE serialization that a task
              believes it currently holds on a specific
              PTE. It is not the actual PTE serialization
              state, but rather a record used by a routine
              to keep track of what it currently holds.
 LOCATED BY : N/A.
 CREATED BY : N/A.
              This is not a control block that is allocated, but
              rather a DSECT typically used to redefine a portion
              of a savearea.
 DELETED BY : N/A.
 RELOCATION CONSIDERATIONS : None
 NOTES      : The HCPPGSER, HCPTPGSR, and HCPPTERD macros provide
              a TRACKING parameter which is used with this DSECT.
              HCPPGSER and HCPPTERD assist in maintaining the state
              of the PSST DSECT while HCPTPGSR will verify that the
              TRACKING value is consistent file the actual PTE
              serialization state reflected in the PGSTE.

PSSPGSER is a code that represents the PTE Serialization state that the task currently holds. It is a record of what the task believes it holds, not the actual PTE Serialization state which is in the PGSTE. The value corresponds to a single PTE serialization state unlike the PGSTE which may need to reflect that both PCLONLY and SOFTLONG are held by different tasks. 0001 1 Bitstring 1 PSSPGSER PTE Serialization task holds. 00000000 PSSNONE X'00' PSSNONE No PTE serialization is held. 00000080 PSSPCLONLY PSSPCL PSSPCLONLY X'80' 000000C0 PSSSHORT PSSPCL+PSSPCL2 PSSSHORT X'C0' 000000E0 PSSHARDLONG PSSPCL+PSSPCL2+PSSLTSER PSSHARDLONG X'E0' 00000060 PSSSOFTLONG PSSPCL2+PSSLTSER PSSSOFTLONG X'60' 000000C1 PSSERRSHORT PSSPCL+PSSPCL2+PSSERROR PSSERRSHORT X'C1' 1... ....
