109 ---------------------------------
111 -- As noted in the private part of the spec of System.Aux_DEC, the
112 -- AST_Handler type is simply a pointer to a procedure that takes
113 -- a single 64bit parameter. The following is a local copy
114 -- of that definition.
116 -- We need our own copy because we need to get our hands on this
117 -- and we cannot see the private part of System.Aux_DEC. We don't
118 -- want to be a child of Aux_Dec because of complications resulting
119 -- from the use of pragma Extend_System. We will use unchecked
120 -- conversions between the two versions of the declarations.
122 type AST_Handler
is access procedure (Param
: Long_Integer);
124 -- However, this declaration is somewhat misleading, since the values
125 -- referenced by AST_Handler values (all produced in this package by
126 -- calls to Create_AST_Handler) are highly stylized.
128 -- The first point is that in VMS/Alpha, procedure pointers do not in
129 -- fact point to code, but rather to a 48-byte procedure descriptor.
130 -- So a value of type AST_Handler is in fact a pointer to one of these
131 -- 48-byte descriptors.

139 -- it works fine to make a copy of the single allocated descriptor, and
140 -- use the copy itself, and we take advantage of this in the design here.
141 -- The idea is that AST_Handler values will all point to a record with the
142 -- following structure:
144 -- Note: When we say it works fine, there is one delicate point, which
145 -- is that the code for the AST procedure itself requires the original

164 -- and entry number parameters identifying the task entry involved.
166 -- The AST_Handler value returned is a pointer to this record. Since
167 -- the record starts with the procedure descriptor, it can be used
168 -- by the system in the normal way to call the procedure. But now
169 -- when the procedure gets control, it can determine the address of
170 -- the procedure descriptor used to call it (since the ABI specifies
171 -- that this is left sitting in register r27 on entry), and then use
172 -- that address to retrieve the Task_Id and entry number so that it
173 -- knows on which entry to queue the AST request.
175 -- The next issue is where are these records placed. Since we intend
