All other bits in the flags argument are reserved for future use by HP and should be specified as 0. The condition value SS$_IVSECFLG is returned if any undefined bits are set or if an illegal combination of flags is set.

return_va_64


OpenVMS usage: address
type: quadword address
access: write only
mechanism: by 32- or 64-bit reference

The lowest process virtual address into which the global page frame section was mapped. The return_va_64 argument is the 32- or 64-bit virtual address of a naturally aligned quadword that contains the virtual address.

return_length_64


OpenVMS usage: byte count
type: quadword (unsigned)
access: write only
mechanism: by 32- or 64-bit reference

The 32- or 64-bit virtual address of a naturally aligned quadword into which the $MGBLSC_GPFN_64 service returns the length of the virtual address range in bytes.

start_va_64


OpenVMS usage: address
type: quadword address
access: read only
mechanism: by value

The starting virtual address to map the global section. The specified virtual address must be a CPU-specified page-aligned address. If the flag SEC$M_EXPREG is specified, the start_va_64 argument must not be specified or must be specified as 0. If SEC$M_EXPREG is set and the start_va_64 argument is nonzero, the condition value SS$_IVSECFLG is returned.

Always refer to the return_va_64 and return_length_64 arguments to determine the range of virtual addresses mapped.


Description

The Map Global Page Frame Section service establishes a correspondence between pages in the virtual address space of the process and pages occupied by a global page frame section. It adds pages to the virtual address space of the process.

Pages mapped to a global page frame section are not included in or charged against the process's working set; they are always valid. Do not lock these pages in the working set by using $LKWSET; this can result in a machine check if they are in I/O space.

If the condition value SS$_ACCVIO is returned by this service, a value cannot be returned in the memory locations pointed to by the return_va_64 and return_length_64 arguments.

If a condition value other than SS$_ACCVIO is returned, the returned address and returned length indicate the pages that were successfully mapped before the error occurred. If no pages were mapped, the return_va_64 argument will contain the value -1, and a value cannot be returned in the memory location pointed to by the return_length_64 argument.

Required Privileges

Read access is required. If the SEC$M_WRT flag is specified, write access is required.

Required Quota

The working set quota (WSQUOTA) of the process must be sufficient to accommodate the increased length of the process page table required by the increase in virtual address space.

The page file quota (PAGFLQUOTA) of the process must be sufficient to accommodate the increased number of process page tables required by the increase in virtual address space. (Note that this service can return the SS$_EXPGFLQUOTA.)

Condition Values Returned

SS$_NORMAL The service completed successfully.
SS$_ACCVIO The gs_name_64 argument cannot be read by the caller, or the return_va_64 or return_length_64 argument cannot be written by the caller.
SS$_GBLSEC_MISMATCH Global section type mismatch. The specified global section was found; however, it is not a global page frame section.
SS$_ILLRELPAG The specified relative page argument is either larger than the highest page number within the section or is not a valid 32-bit physical page frame number.
SS$_INSFWSL The working set limit of the process is not large enough to accommodate the increased virtual address space.
SS$_IVACMODE The caller's mode is less privileged than the create mode associated with the region.
SS$_IVLOGNAM The specified global section name has a length of 0 or has more than 43 characters.
SS$_IVREGID Invalid region ID specified.
SS$_IVSECFLG An invalid flag, a reserved flag, or an invalid combination of flags was specified.
SS$_IVSECIDCTL The match control field of the global section identification is invalid.

SS$_PAGNOTINREG A page in the specified range is not within the specified region.
SS$_PAGOWNVIO A page in the specified range already exists and cannot be deleted because it is owned by a more privileged access mode than that of the caller.
SS$_REGISFULL The specified virtual region is full; no space is available in the region for the pages created to contain the mapped global section.
SS$_TOOMANYLNAM The logical name translation of the gs_name_64 argument exceeded the allowed depth of 10.
SS$_VA_IN_USE The existing underlying page cannot be deleted because it is associated with a buffer object.

$MOD_HOLDER

Modifies the specified holder record of the target identifier in the rights database.

Format

SYS$MOD_HOLDER id ,holder ,[set_attrib] ,[clr_attrib]


C Prototype

int sys$mod_holder (unsigned int id, struct _generic_64 *holder, unsigned int set_attrib, unsigned int clr_attrib);


Arguments

id


OpenVMS usage: rights_id
type: longword (unsigned)
access: read only
mechanism: by value

Binary value of target identifier whose holder record is modified when $MOD_HOLDER completes execution. The id argument is a longword containing the identifier value.

holder


OpenVMS usage: rights_holder
type: quadword (unsigned)
access: read only
mechanism: by reference

Identifier of holder being modified when $MOD_HOLDER completes execution. The holder argument is the address of a quadword containing the UIC identifier of the holder in the first longword and the value of 0 in the second longword.

set_attrib


OpenVMS usage: mask_longword
type: longword (unsigned)
access: read only
mechanism: by value

Bit mask of attributes to be enabled for the identifier when $MOD_HOLDER completes execution. The set_attrib argument is a longword containing the attribute mask.

The attributes actually enabled are the intersection of those specified and the attributes of the identifier. If you specify the same attribute in set_attrib and clr_attrib, the attribute is enabled.

Symbol values are offsets to the bits within the longword. You can also obtain the values as masks with the appropriate bit set using the prefix KGB$M rather than KGB$V. The following symbols for each bit position are defined in the system macro library ($KGBDEF):

Bit Position Meaning When Set
KGB$V_DYNAMIC Allows holders of the identifier to remove it from or add it to the process rights list by using the DCL command SET RIGHTS_LIST.
KGB$V_NOACCESS Makes any access rights of the identifier null and void. This attribute is intended as a modifier for a resource identifier or the Subsystem attribute.
KGB$V_RESOURCE Allows the holder to charge resources, such as disk blocks, to the identifier.
KGB$V_SUBSYSTEM Allows holders of the identifier to create and maintain protected subsystems by assigning the Subsystem ACE to the application images in the subsystem.

clr_attrib


OpenVMS usage: mask_longword
type: longword (unsigned)
access: read only
mechanism: by value

Bit mask of attributes to be disabled for the identifier when $MOD_HOLDER completes execution. The clr_attrib argument is a longword containing the attribute mask.

If you specify the same attribute in set_attrib and clr_attrib, the attribute is enabled.

Symbol values are offsets to the bits within the longword. You can also obtain the values as masks with the appropriate bit set using the prefix KGB$M rather than KGB$V. The following symbols for each bit position are defined in the system macro library ($KGBDEF):

Bit Position Meaning When Set
KGB$V_DYNAMIC Allows holders of the identifier to remove it from or add it to the process rights list by using the DCL command SET RIGHTS_LIST.
KGB$V_NOACCESS Makes any access rights of the identifier null and void. This attribute is intended as a modifier for a resource identifier or the Subsystem attribute.
KGB$V_RESOURCE Allows the holder to charge resources, such as disk blocks, to the identifier.
KGB$V_SUBSYSTEM Allows holders of the identifier to create and maintain protected subsystems by assigning the Subsystem ACE to the application images in the subsystem.

Description

The Modify Holder Record in Rights Database service modifies the specified holder record in the rights database. Identifier attributes can be added or removed.

When you specify both the set_attrib and clr_attrib arguments, the attribute is cleared first. Thus, if you specify the same attribute bit with each argument, the result is that the bit is set.

Required Access or Privileges

$MOD_IDENT

Modifies the specified identifier record in the rights database.

Format

SYS$MOD_IDENT id ,[set_attrib] ,[clr_attrib] ,[new_name] ,[new_value]


C Prototype

int sys$mod_ident (unsigned int id, unsigned int set_attrib, unsigned int clr_attrib, void *new_name, unsigned int new_value);


Arguments

id


OpenVMS usage: rights_id
type: longword (unsigned)
access: read only
mechanism: by value

Binary value of identifier whose identifier record is modified when $MOD_IDENT completes execution. The id argument is a longword containing the identifier value.

set_attrib


OpenVMS usage: mask_longword
type: longword (unsigned)
access: read only
mechanism: by value

Bit mask of attributes to be enabled for the identifier when $MOD_IDENT completes execution. The set_attrib argument is a longword containing the attribute mask.

The attributes actually enabled are the intersection of those specified and the attributes of the identifier. If you specify the same attribute in set_attrib and clr_attrib, the attribute is enabled.

Symbol values are offsets to the bits within the longword. You can also obtain the values as masks with the appropriate bit set using the prefix KGB$M rather than KGB$V. The following symbols for each bit position are defined in the system macro library ($KGBDEF):

Bit Position Meaning When Set
KGB$V_DYNAMIC Allows holders of the identifier to remove it from or add it to the process rights list by using the DCL command SET_RIGHTS_LIST.
KGB$V_HOLDER_HIDDEN Prevents someone from getting a list of users who hold an identifier, unless they own the identifier themselves.
KGB$V_NAME_HIDDEN Allows holders of an identifier to have it translated---either from binary to ASCII or vice versa---but prevents unauthorized users from translating the identifier.
KGB$V_NOACCESS Makes any access rights of the identifier null and void. This attribute is intended as a modifier for a resource identifier or the Subsystem attribute.
KGB$V_RESOURCE Allows holders of an identifier to charge disk space to the identifier. It is used only for file objects.
KGB$V_SUBSYSTEM Allows holders of the identifier to create and maintain protected subsystems by assigning the Subsystem ACE to the application images in the subsystem.

clr_attrib


OpenVMS usage: mask_longword
type: longword (unsigned)
access: read only
mechanism: by value

Bit mask of attributes to be disabled for the identifier when $MOD_IDENT completes execution. The clr_attrib argument is a longword containing the attribute mask.

If you specify the same attribute in set_attrib and clr_attrib, the attribute is enabled.

Symbol values are offsets to the bits within the longword. You can also obtain the values as masks with the appropriate bit set using the prefix KGB$M rather than KGB$V. The following symbols for each bit position are defined in the system macro library ($KGBDEF):

Bit Position Meaning When Set

KGB$V_HOLDER_HIDDEN Prevents someone from getting a list of users who hold an identifier, unless they own the identifier themselves.
KGB$V_NAME_HIDDEN Allows holders of an identifier to have it translated---either from binary to ASCII or vice versa---but prevents unauthorized users from translating the identifier.
KGB$V_NOACCESS Makes any access rights of the identifier null and void. This attribute is intended as a modifier for a resource identifier or the Subsystem attribute.
KGB$V_RESOURCE Allows holders of an identifier to charge disk space to the identifier. It is used only for file objects.
KGB$V_SUBSYSTEM Allows holders of the identifier to create and maintain protected subsystems by assigning the Subsystem ACE to the application images in the subsystem.

new_name


OpenVMS usage: char_string
type: character-coded text string
access: read only
mechanism: by descriptor--fixed-length string descriptor

New name to be given to the specified identifier. The new_name argument is the address of the descriptor pointing to the identifier name string.

An identifier name consists of 1 to 31 alphanumeric characters, including dollar signs ($) and underscores (_), and must contain at least one nonnumeric character. Any lowercase characters specified are automatically converted to uppercase.

new_value


OpenVMS usage: rights_id
type: longword (unsigned)
access: read only
mechanism: by value

New value to be assigned to the specified identifier. The new_value argument is a longword containing the binary value of the specified identifier. When the identifier value is changed, $MOD_IDENT also changes the value of the identifier in all of the holder records in which the specified identifier appears.

Description

The Modify Identifier in Rights Database service modifies the specified identifier record in the rights database. Identifier attributes can be added or removed. The identifier name or value can be changed. When you specify both the set_attrib and clr_attrib arguments, the attribute is cleared first. Thus, if you specify the same attribute bit with each argument, the result is that the bit is set.
