This topic provides you with the format of each RMS control block
macro.
The $FAB macro allocates storage for a FAB and initializes
certain FAB fields with defaults and user-specified values. No
value is returned for this assembly-time operation.

The $FAB_STORE macro moves user-specified values into fields of
the specified FAB. The expanded $FAB_STORE code executes at run
time on a previously initialized (allocated) FAB, in contrast to
the $FAB macro, which initializes the FAB at assembly time. The
$FAB_STORE macro must reside in a code program section.

On Alpha systems, the $RAB64 macro allocates storage for a RAB64
and initializes certain RAB64 fields with defaults and user-
specified values. You cannot use this macro within a sequence of
executable instructions. No value is returned for this assembly-
time operation.
The defaults unique to $RAB64 are as follows:
o RAB64$B_BLN is initialized to RAB64$C_BLN64.
o The original longword I/O buffers (KBF, RHB, RBF, and UBF) are
initialized to -1; USZ and RSZ word sizes are initialized to
0.
User-specified values using the CTX, KBF, RHB, RBF, RSZ, UBF,
or USZ keywords are moved into the quadword fields for these
keywords. In contrast, the $RAB macro moves them into the
longword (or word) fields for these keywords.
Format
$RAB64 BKT=bucket-code-number,
CTX=user-context-value,
FAB=fab-address,
KBF=key-buffer-address,

10 - $RAB64 STORE (Alpha Only)

On Alpha systems, the $RAB64_STORE macro moves user-specified
values into fields of the specified RAB64. The expanded $RAB64_
STORE code executes at run time on a previously initialized
(allocated) RAB64. In contrast, the $RAB64 macro allocates and
initializes the RAB64 at assembly time. The $RAB64_STORE macro
must reside in a code program section.
User-specified values that use the CTX, KBF, RHB, RBF, RSZ, UBF,

keywords. In contrast, the $RAB_STORE macro moves them into the
longword (or word) fields for these keywords.
