Extended Segment for Control Structures
Extended Segment for Control Structures
For various control and data structures, GDSX allocates an extended segment with a size
determined by the configuration parameters. Unless you specify a different segment by
means of the SEGMENTID configuration parameter, segment ID 1024 is allocated.
(See "Descriptions of Configuration Parameters" on page 2-47.) If the space is not
available, GDSX will not run, and an internal error message is created (abend error 30).
See Figure 2-2 for a summary of the contents of the extended segment. Areas illustrated
in this table have distinct boundaries and appear in the order shown, except for those
areas in the diagram from the table of checkpointed buffers down to and including the
statistics table (or the $RECEIVE queue if the statistics table is not allocated), which are
typically intermingled and checkerboarded over the space allocated for all of them.
A user task is assigned space in the table of checkpointed buffers when it first calls
^CHECKPOINT(2). A user task is assigned space in the stack image area when it is
started; an equal amount of space will be allocated at the task’s first call to
^CHECKPOINT. The statistics table is allocated only if stats^flag is set (see the
description of "CONTROLFLAGS" on page 2-49); space in this table is assigned when
a LINE or a preconfigured SU is added. Unprinted log messages are stored in the LOG
message queue.
