OMVS has an API for requesting that an address space become non-swappable.  
It is called oe_env_np ENV_STOR_SERVICE with BPX_SWAP or BPX_NONSWAP as 
parms.  Use of the BPX_NONSWAP parm is controlled by BPX.STOR.SWAP FACILITY 
class in RACF.  The API is described in "z/OS UNIX System Services 
Programming: Assembler Callable Services Reference".

I've never used it myself, just defined the FACILITY class for tasks which 
already are coded to take advantage of the ability.
