     NAME       : HCPSPXBK
     DESCRIPTION: Interface for POSIX ID set requests
     DSECT      : SPXBK
     FUNCTION   : Contain specifications and responses for the
                  "set POSIX IDs" function, Diagnose X'29C'.
     LOCATED BY : none
     CREATED BY : HCPPXI (copied from/to guest storage)
     DELETED BY : HCPPXI
     SERIALIZED : CP's copy of the SPXBK is fetched by
                  HCPVINOP into (VMDVOBUF).  This area
                  is governed by instruction-stream
