     NAME       : HCPPGEBK
     DESCRIPTION: Page Allocation Management Block
     DSECT      : PGEBK
     FUNCTION   : Maintain a record of virtual pages that have
                  been allocated within the virtual address space
                  used for the ISFC subsystem and within virtual address
                  spaces of applications using ISFC.
                  This control block resides in CP real storage, but
                  the buffer that it represents may reside in CP real
                  storage (in which case, PGEALET will be zero) or in
                  a "permanently" accessed address space (in which case
                  PGEALET will be the ALET of the address space).
     NOTES      : ISFC does not require the application data to start
                  in the first byte of the buffer, or extend to the
                  end of the buffer.  The field PGEDATOF holds the
                  offset of the data, and the field PGEDATLN holds
                  the length of the data.  Some communications protocols
                  (for example, SNA) may need to wrap the data with a
                  header and/or trailer after the data is in the buffer.
                  If the mailbox initializes PGEDATOF and PGEDATLN when
                  the data is placed in the buffer, it can add header
                  and/or trailer records later (without the cost of
                  copying the data to another buffer).
                  The prototypical PL/X basing expression is:
         respecify
           buffer  based(viaptr(pgeALET, pgeVirt+pgeDatOf))
                  Of course, the buffer can only be accessed in AR-mode.
                  Each buffer has a unique creator, and a current owner.
                  Only the current owner of a buffer may reference and/or
                  modify the buffer and/or the fields in the buffer
                  descriptor -- only the buffer's creator may deallocate the
                  storage occupied by the buffer and/or the PGEBK.  When a
                  buffer has been consumed, it should be returned to its
                  creator by calling the creator's RECLAIM-BUF exit, which
                  is pointed to by the PGECLAIM field.
                  The fields in this control block are initialized by the
                  buffer's creator -- all of them are read-only to everyone
                  else *except* for PGENEXT, PGEDATOF, PGEDATLN, and the
                  owner pointers and words.
     LOCATED BY : When a virtual page is in use, the PGEBK address
                  is stored in an appropriate control block.  For
                  example: The CTCBK contains a table with one
                  PGEBK pointer for each buffer that has been set
                  up for the Read channel program.
     CREATED BY : For ISFC, created by HCPBUT when a new virtual page buffer
                  is requested.  PGEBKs that HCPBUT creates always have
                  host virtual addresses from the ISFC Address Space ass-
                  ociated with them.  PGEBKs are also obtained by other
                  communication transports without using HCPBUT and by
                  applications that use ISFC services.
     DELETED BY : For ISFC, deleted by HCPBUT when the virtual page buffer
                  is released.  PGEBKs obtained by other communications
                  transports without using HCPBUT must not be returned using
                  HCPBUT.  These must be returned using a method appropriate
                  with respect to how they were obtained by the transport.
                  See description of PGECLAIM above.
     SERIALIZED : The ISFC global lock (HCPBDSGL).
