                                           application). The default
                                           behavior for one or more pages in
                                           V86 memory has been modified and
                                           the _GetV86PageableArray service
                                           returns at least one nonzero bit
                                           in the array.
 
                   VMStat_V86IntsLocked    Virtual machine locks any V86
                                           memory that is not pageable.
                                           Locking regardless of the pager
                                           type has been enabled for the
                                           virtual machine.
 
                   VMStat_TS_Sched         Virtual machine is scheduled by
                                           the time slicer.
 
                   VMStat_Idle             Virtual machine has released its
                                           time slice.
 
                   VMStat_Closing          Virtual machine has received a
                                           Close_VM message.
 
CB_High_Linear     Specifies the liner address in the VMM linear address
                   space of the virtual machine memory. Virtual devices can
                   add a V86 linear address to this value calculate the
                   location of a virtual machine memory in the VMM address
                   space.
 
CB_Client_Pointer  Specifies the address of a Client_Reg_Struc structure
                   containing the register values for the virtual machine.
 
CB_VMID            Specifies the virtual machine identifier.
