tdm_spawn(2) OSS System Calls Reference Manual
In the current RVU, these fields are meaningful:
typedef struct process_extension {
long pe_len;
char *pe_library_name;
char *pe_swap_file_name;
char *pe_extswap_file_name;
short pe_priority;
short pe_cpu;
short pe_name_options;
char filler_1[2];
char *pe_process_name;
char *pe_hometerm;
short pe_memory_pages;
short pe_jobid;
short pe_create_options;
char filler_2[2];
char *pe_defines;
short pe_defines_len;
short pe_debug_options;
long pe_pfs_size;
short pe_OSS_options;
char filler_3[2];
long pe_mainstack_max;
long pe_heap_max;
long pe_space_guarantee;
} process_extension_def;
The input structure passes this information:
pe_len Specifies the size of the structure in bytes. This value is set by #define
DEFAULT_PROCESS_EXTENSION and should not be changed.
pe_library_name
Points to the name of the user library to be bound to the new process. The string
that is pointed to is null-terminated and in OSS pathname format. If the pointer
points to a zero-length string (a NULL character), the new process runs without a
user library file. An equivalent call to the Guardian PROCESS_LAUNCH_ pro-
cedure does this by setting the library filename length to -1.
This field is used only for G-series TNS or accelerated new process image files.
If a value is specified for this field for native object files, the specified value is
ignored.
pe_swap_file_name
Points to a null-terminated string specifying the name of a file in the Guardian
file system to be used as the swap file for the stack segment. For example, if the
Guardian filename is $A.B.C, the name used is /G/a/b/c.
This field is not used in the current RVU of Open System Services. It exists for
compatibility with older RVUs. Any specified value is checked for validity but
otherwise ignored.
