#### XLDBK Prolog

     NAME       : HCPXLDBK
     DESCRIPTION: eXtent List Definition BlocK.
     DSECT      : XLDBK
     FUNCTION   : The XLDBK is used for parameter passing for
                  diagnose X'244'.
     LOCATED BY : Rx      - Diagnose X'244' Rx register.
     CREATED BY : Created in the guest virtual machine's storage and
                  copied into a buffer page for CP use.
     DELETED BY : Deleted by the guest virtual machine.
     SERIALIZED : Guest Virtual Machine is responsible.
     COMMENTS   : This is a variable size block.
                  Use the following formula to figure out the actual
                  size of the control block.
                  XLDSIZE+(((nnn(XLDENTSZ))+7)/8)= number of doublewords
                  Where: XLDSIZE  - Header size in doublewords.
                  nnn      - Number of contiguous extent entries.
                  XLDENTSZ - Total size in bytes of one extent
                  entry.
