#### ASCE Prolog

     Name       : HCPASCE
     Description: Address-Space-Control Element
     DSECT      : ASCE
     Function   : This DSECT maps an ESAME address-space-control
                  element.  The format of an address-space-control
                  element is architected, and described in the
                  Principles of Operation.
     Located by : CR1      is the ASCE for the primary address space.
                  CR7      is the ASCE for the secondary address space.
                  CR13     is the ASCE for the home address space.
                  ASTASCE  in an ASTE.
                  VMDPASCE is the ASCE for a virtual CPU's current
                  primary address space.
                  PFXSXASC is the ASCE for the system-execution space.
     Created by : HCPASMCR when an address space is created.
                  HCPSSMCR when the system-execution address space is
                  created.
                  HCPFMUSG when the full track cache address space
                  is created.
                  HCPHDTMA when an address space is expanded.
                  HCPHDTNL when an address space is compressed.
     Deleted by : HCPASMDS when the address space is destroyed.
