MACRO, /MIGRATION, Page-Related Calculations, $NEXT PAGE

Computes the virtual address of the first byte in the next page.
Format
$NEXT_PAGE source_va, dest_va, clearbwp=NO,
user_pagesize_addr, user_mask_addr, quad=YES
source_va
Source virtual address.
dest_va
Destination of virtual address within next page.
clearbwp=NO
If YES, masks the byte-within-page portion of the source virtual
address. The clearbwp=NO option is a performance enhancement,
avoiding unnecessary instructions if you know you are starting
on a page boundary or you are intending to divide by page-size
anyway.
user_pagesize_addr
Location of the page-size value (returned by a call to the
$GETSYI system service specifying the SYI$_PAGESIZE item
descriptor) in the application data area. If this argument is
blank, the macro uses MMG$GL_PAGESIZE (bigpage) or MMG$C-VAX-
PAGE-SIZE (vaxpage).
user_mask_addr
Location of the application-provided byte-within-page mask. If
this argument is blank, the macro uses MMG$GL_BWP_MASK if user_
pagesize_addr is also blank. Otherwise, it subtracts one from the
contents of the user_pagesize_addr and uses that value.
quad=YES
If YES, the conversion supports 64-bit addressing. If NO, the
conversion does not support 64-bit addressing.
