z/OS Security Server RACF Callable Services
SA23-2293-00
This service is intended only for use by the MVS™ BCP.
The key is meaningful only when the following subpools are used:
129–132
227–231
241
The following user security information is propagated from the
parent address space to the child address space:
Controlled status
Keep-controlled indicators
Saved messages
Note: Only a subset of this information is copied
during the first call to R_fork. A second call may be necessary. RACF® reason code 4 indicates that
there is additional security information related to the parent address
space that should be propagated to the child address space. If a reason
code 4 is received when a flag value of 0 was passed, R_fork should
be called again with a flag value of 2 specified. If a reason code
4 is received when a flag value of 1 was passed, R_fork should be
called again with a flag value of 3 specified.
This service uses task-level support when z/OS UNIX has indicated in the task's
ACEE that this is a task-level process.
