Memory buffers allocation

Top  Previous  Next

Memory buffers are the areas where XCICS memory operations are performed (TS, GETMAIN etc.). Five buffer sets are required by XCICS to work: they can be defined using the add bufferset directive.

define bufferset

Defines a memory buffer entry in the XCICS/TS terminal table (TCT).

add bufferset buffers=<value>, size=<value>

This directive adds a set of buffers of the specified size (512 bytes blocks).

buffers

number of buffers in the bufferset.

size

buffer dimension in 512-bytes unit.

WARNING: a maximum of 5 buffers can be added.
