Additional Information
- The process descriptor table houses the address of the descriptor. Initialization of the process descriptor consists of clearing the first 256 bytes of the descriptor, setting up the state as a system state, and marking as unallocated as much of the DAT image as the system allows—typically, 60-64 kilobytes.
- The call also branches to the F$SRqMem call.
