I'm referencing the PDC manual from HP, "PA-RISC 1.1 I/O Firmware 
Architecture Reference Specification", Version 1.0, Aug 22 2001.

Go to http://h21007.www2.hp.com/dev/, click in left hand menu
"technical resources", click in middle menu beneath "technical 
documentation" item "references and manuals" and there scroll
down to headline "pa-risc". Click on "pa-risc 1.1 I/O firmware
architecture reference specification" and you get to the manuals
i reference. 

Especially for the documentation for PDC_SYSMAP fetch item 4. on
that page, "4. PDC Procedures PDF 304 KB" and you'll find on 
pp 4-78 the related documentation and the naming of the arguments.

In the same document on pp 4-24 you'll find the reason for renaming
one of the PDC_CHASSIS constants.
