 handle

    OpenVMS usage:handle for the galaxy lock
    type:         quadword (unsigned)
    access:       read
    mechanism:    input by value
    The 64-bit lock handle that identifies the lock on which to
    return information. This value is returned by SYS$CREATE_GALAXY_
    LOCK.

 name

    OpenVMS usage:address
    type:         zero-terminated string
    access:       write
    mechanism:    output by reference
    Pointer to a buffer. This buffer must be large enough to receive
    the name of the lock. Locks names are zero-terminated strings
    with a maximum size of 16 bytes.

 timeout

    OpenVMS usage:address
    type:         longword (unsigned)
    access:       write
    mechanism:    output by reference
    Pointer to a longword. The value returned is the timeout value of
    the lock.

 size

    OpenVMS usage:address
    type:         longword (unsigned)
    access:       write
    mechanism:    output by reference
    Pointer to a longword. The value returned is the size of the lock
    in bytes.

 ipl

    OpenVMS usage:address
    type:         longword (unsigned)
    access:       write
    mechanism:    output by reference
    Pointer to a longword. The value returned is the IPL of the lock.

 rank

    OpenVMS usage:address
    type:         longword (unsigned)
    access:       write
    mechanism:    output by reference
    Pointer to a longword. The value returned is the rank of the
    lock.

 flags

    OpenVMS usage:address
    type:         word (unsigned)
    access:       write
    mechanism:    output by reference
    Pointer to a word. The value returned is the word mask of lock
    flags.

 name_length

    OpenVMS usage:address
    type:         word (unsigned)
    access:       write
    mechanism:    output by reference
    Length of the string returned in the name argument.
