     NAME       : HCPDCTBL
     DESCRIPTION: Device Characteristics Table
     DSECT      : DCTBL
     FUNCTION   : The Device CHaracteristics Table is used to
                  map status information for each type of device
                  supported.
     LOCATED BY : VIODDITB - VIOMI pointer containing address of this
                  table.
     CREATED BY : DCTBLs are generated by invoking the HCPDCTGN
                  macro.
     DELETED BY : DCTBLs are never deleted.
     SERIALIZED : DCTBLs are only referenced ('read from') and never
                  altered. Therefore, no serialization is required.
