Interesting question that now has my curiosity up. Before I never cared enough

My first guess is that the LOADPARM data is stored in low memory and a register

HCLSAL is indeed provided and maintained with source code (ASSEMBLE), on
MAINT's 194 disk. It obtains the LOADPARM from a call to HCPGLPRM

It uses the SERVC opcode which does things like read/write to the HMC, set
masks to enable/disable signals like powerdown (how Linux intercepts the signal
shutdown command), get loadparm, get configuration information etc. While some
of the function is generic, I believe some is model specific.
