Library /sys$common/syshlp/helplib.hlb  —  MACRO  /MIGRATION  MACRO Compiler Directives, .DEFINE PAL, Parameters
 name

    Name of the PALcode function. The compiler applies the prefix
    EVAX_ to the specified name (for instance, EVAX_MTPR_USP).

 pal_opcode

    Opcode value of the PALcode function.

    Be sure to use angle brackets around the function code when
    specifying it in hexadecimal format (^X). If you specify
    the function code in decimal format, angle brackets are not
    necessary.

 operand_descriptor_list

    A list of operand descriptors that specifies the number of
    operands and the type of each. Up to six operand descriptors are
    allowed in the list. Be careful to specify operands correctly so
    that the compiler can correctly track register and stack usage.
    The following table lists the operand descriptors:

    Access
    Type                              Data Type

                Byte         Word        Longword    Octaword

    Address     AB           AW          AL          AQ
    Read-only   RB           RW          RL          RQ
    Modify      MB           MW          ML          MQ
