 NAME       : HCPHALBK
 DESCRIPTION: Host-ART lookaside block
 DSECT      : HALBK
 FUNCTION   : The HALBK maps ALETs to I-ASITs for
              host-access-register translation.
 SERIALIZED : Each task is responsible for its own
              serialization
 RELOCATION CONSIDERATIONS : None
 COMMENTS   : This block is meant to be used with the
              HCPHALM macro. The user must:
              - acquire HALBK storage
              - have an active HCPUSING on the block
              - fill in the header.
              Then HCPHALM may be used to search and
              manipulate entries in this block.
              The count of the number of entries in the HALBK
              must fit in a fullword; that's the only
              restriction on HALBK size. If, however, the
              total size of the HALBK (header + (entry length
              * number of entries)) could be greater than
              509 doublewords, the PAGES=DECIDE option should
              be used on the HCPGETST and HCPRELST macros.
