The following table defines the p1 argument, p2 argument, and p3 argument values when specifying the CSH$_READ_QUANT function code:
| Argument | Access | Description |
|---|---|---|
| p1 | Read | Address of the buffer. |
| p2 | Read | Address of the longword size of the buffer. |
| p3 | --- | Unused. |
The following table defines the p1 argument, p2 argument, and p3 argument values when specifying the CSH$_SET_ATTN_AST function code:
| Argument | Access | Description |
|---|---|---|
| p1 | Read | Address of an AST routine. |
| p2 | Read | Access mode to deliver AST. |
| p3 | --- | Unused. |
The format of the buffer is defined in the $CSHDEF macro. The following table describes the information contained in the buffer:
| Buffer Field | Definition |
|---|---|
| CSHC$L_EPID | Process ID (PID) of the process to affect. |
| CSHC$W_CLASS | Class into which to place the process. Class 65535 (hexadecimal FFFF) has a special interpretation: the associated process is not to be class scheduled and will, therefore, never run out of class quantum. The largest class number is 8191. |
| CSHC$W_WINDFALL | Determines whether the process is to share windfall. A value of 1 permits the process to share windfall; a value of 0 prevents the process from sharing windfall. Values other than 0 and 1 are undefined and can cause unpredictable behavior in future releases of the operating system. |
The following table defines the p1 argument, p2 argument, and p3 argument values when specifying the CSH$_SET_CLASS function code:

The Affect Process Scheduling service is used by class scheduler processes to affect scheduling.Use the func argument to specify which action $SCHED is to perform.
For more information about class scheduling, see the HP OpenVMS Programming Concepts Manual.
ALTPRI is required to affect processes. Group access is required to affect processes in the same UIC group. World access is required to affect processes in different UIC groups. SYSPRV is required to set the timeout value.

$GETJPI, $GETJPIW, $SETPRI
SS$_NORMAL Service completed successfully. SS$_ACCVIO Buffer, length, or size locations not writeable. SS$_BADPARAM Specified a class higher than currently defined, or an element size of 0 was specified. SS$_BUFFEROVF Buffer is too small, only some data transferred. SS$_INCLASS Returned if a process (specified by the input PID) already belongs to a scheduling class. This can happen if the process was previously class scheduled at login through the class scheduler permanent database file, or by issuing the command, SET PROCESS/SCHEDULING_CLASS="class_name". SS$_INSFMEM System dynamic memory is insufficient to complete the service. SS$_NOSUCHUSER Supplied PID is not valid.
The Search service scans a directory file and fills in various NAM block fields. This service should be preceded by the Parse service, in order to initialize the NAM block appropriately.For additional information about this service, see the OpenVMS Record Management Services Reference Manual.
Enables or disables the delivery of asynchronous system traps (ASTs) for the access mode from which the service call was issued.
SYS$SETAST enbflg
int sys$setast (char enbflg);
enbflg
OpenVMS usage: boolean type: byte (unsigned) access: read only mechanism: by value
Value specifying whether ASTs are to be enabled. The enbflg argument is a byte containing this value. The value 1 enables AST delivery for the calling access mode; the value 0 disables AST delivery.
The Set AST Enable service enables or disables the delivery of ASTs for the access mode from which the service call was issued.When an image is executing in user mode, ASTs are always enabled for more privileged access modes. If ASTs are disabled for a more privileged access mode, the operating system cannot deliver ASTs for less privileged access modes until ASTs are enabled once again for the more privileged access mode. Therefore, a process that has disabled ASTs for a more privileged access mode must reenable ASTs for that mode before returning to a less privileged access mode.
None

Establishes a request for notification when an OpenVMS Cluster configuration event occurs.
SYS$SETCLUEVT event ,astadr ,[astprm] ,[acmode] ,[handle]
int sys$setcluevt (unsigned int event, void (*astadr)(__unknown_params), int astprm, unsigned int acmode, struct _generic_64 *handle);
event
OpenVMS usage: event_code type: longword (unsigned) access: read only mechanism: by value
Event code indicating the type of cluster configuration event for which an AST is to be delivered. The event argument is a value indicating which type of event is of interest.Each event type has a symbolic name. The $CLUEVTDEF macro defines the following symbolic names:
Symbolic Name Description CLUEVT$C_ADD One or more OpenVMS nodes have been added to the OpenVMS Cluster system. CLUEVT$C_REMOVE One or more OpenVMS nodes have been removed from the OpenVMS Cluster system. astadr
OpenVMS usage: ast_procedure type: procedure value access: call without stack unwinding mechanism: by reference
Notification AST routine to receive control after a change in OpenVMS Cluster configuration occurs.astprm
OpenVMS usage: user_arg type: longword (unsigned) access: read only mechanism: by value
Optional AST parameter to be passed to the AST service routine. The astprm argument is a longword value containing the AST parameter.acmode
OpenVMS usage: access_mode type: longword (unsigned) access: read only mechanism: by value
Optional access mode at which the configuration event AST is to execute. The acmode argument is a longword containing the access mode.Each access mode has a symbolic name. The $PSLDEF macro defines the following symbols for the four access modes:
Symbol Access Mode PSL$C_KERNEL Kernel PSL$C_EXEC Executive PSL$C_SUPER Supervisor PSL$C_USER User The value of the access mode must not be more privileged than the access mode of the caller.
handle
OpenVMS usage: identifier type: quadword (unsigned) access: write only mechanism: by reference
Optional identifier to receive a value that uniquely identifies this AST request. $SETCLUEVT sets this handle to a unique value so that it can later be used to identify the request in the $CLRCLUEVT and $TSTCLUEVT services.
The Set Cluster Event service establishes a request for notification when a cluster configuration event occurs. The service establishes only one AST notification for a configuration event. To receive AST notification for all cluster configuration events, the $SETCLUEVT service must be reissued within the notification AST routine.The service will verify that the input parameters specify a valid request, allocate appropriate data structures to hold the request, and enqueue the request for notification.
You must specify an event type and an AST address. You can specify an AST parameter, the access mode, and an address into which to place the handle of this request.
Errors will be returned in the following cases:
- If quotas are exceeded, an error identifying the specific quota will be returned. It is important to note that this routine will return an error and will not retry an attempt to get quota if quota is exhausted on the first attempt. See the Condition Values Returned section for types of errors that can be returned.
- If the astadr argument is omitted, SS$_BADPARAM will be returned.
- If the event argument is omitted or incorrectly specified, SS$_BADPARAM will be returned.
- If the access mode parameter is more privileged than the mode of the caller, the mode of the caller will be used.
- If specified, the handle argument must be readable and writable from the mode of the caller. SS$_ACCVIO is returned if this is not the case.

SS$_NORMAL The service completed successfully. SS$_ACCVIO Unable to process parameters for improper use. SS$_BADPARAM The event was improperly specified. SS$_EXASTLM The process exceeded its quota for outstanding AST requests. SS$_INSFMEM The system dynamic memory is insufficient to complete the service.
Allows you to read and change the default directory string for the process. Do not include any device or file name strings in the default directory string; include only the [DIR] syntax. Modify the device portion of the current default directory location through the specification of the SYS$DISK logical name. Redefine this logical name using either the $CRELNM edtsystem service or the LIB$SET_LOGICAL RTL routine.
SYS$SETDDIR [new-dir-addr] ,[length-addr] ,[cur-dir-addr]
int sys$setddir (void *newdiraddr, unsigned short int *lengthaddr, void *curdiraddr);
new-dir-addr
OpenVMS usage: char_string type: character-coded text string access: read only mechanism: by descriptor--fixed-length string descriptor
A descriptor of the new default directory. The new-dir-addr argument is the address of the descriptor that points to the buffer containing the new directory specification that RMS will use to set the new process-default directory. If the default directory is not to be changed, the value of the new-dir-addr argument should be 0.length-addr
OpenVMS usage: word_unsigned type: word (unsigned) access: write only mechanism: by reference
A word that is to receive the length of the current default directory. The length-addr argument is the address of the word that will receive the length. If you do not want this value returned, specify the value 0.cur-dir-addr
OpenVMS usage: char_string type: character-coded text string access: write only mechanism: by descriptor--fixed-length string descriptor
A descriptor of a buffer that is to receive the current default directory string. The cur-dir-addr argument is the address of the descriptor that points to the buffer area that is to receive the current directory string.
The Set Default Directory service allows you to read and change the default directory string for the process. You should restore the previous default directory string to its original state unless you want the changed default directory string to last beyond the exit of your image. The new directory name string is checked for correct syntax.There is no predefined macro of the form $SETDDIR_G or $SETDDIR_S to call this service.
On Alpha and Integrity server systems, the Set Default Directory service attempts to replace the default directory string with a DID abbreviation if the length of the resulting default directory exceeds 255 characters. If this happens, then in addition to the normal syntax check, the entire path to that specification, including the device, is verified and must exist for the call to succeed.

new-def-prot-addr
OpenVMS usage: file_protection type: word (unsigned) access: read only mechanism: by reference
A word that specifies the new default file protection specification. The new-def-prot-addr argument is the address of the word that specifies the desired protection. If you do not want the process-default file protection to be changed, specify the value 0.cur-def-prot-addr
OpenVMS usage: file_protection type: word (unsigned) access: write only mechanism: by reference
A word that is to receive the current default file protection specification. The cur-def-prot-addr argument is the address of the word that receives the current process-default protection. If you do not want the current default file protection, specify the value 0.
The Set Default File Protection service allows you to read and write the default file protection for the process. You should restore the old default file protection specification unless you want the changed default to last beyond the exit of your image.There is no predefined macro of the form $SETDEFPROT_G or $SETDEFPROT_S to call this service.
