NM and CM callable.
Dynamically enters privileged mode. Privileged mode (PM) capability is required.

CAUTION: Normal operating system checks and limitations are bypassed in
privileged mode (PM). It is possible for a PM program to destroy file integrity,
including the operating system software itself. Hewlett-Packard will
investigate and attempt to resolve problems resulting from the use of PM code.
This service, which is not provided under the standard service contract, is
available on a time and materials billing basis. Hewlett-Packard will not
support, correct, or attend to any modification of the operating system software.

Syntax
GETPRIVMODE;
Operation Notes
After a successful call to GETPRIVMODE, the program remains in privileged mode
until a call to GETUSERMODE or the program exits the current procedure. (A
procedure refers to a Pascal procedure or function, a C function, a Fortran
subprogram, an SPL procedure, or a COBOL program). Any procedures called while
in privileged mode will execute in privileged mode. When the procedure that
called GETPRIVMODE exits, the previous privilege level is restored.
Condition Codes
| CCE (2) | Request granted. The program was in nonprivileged mode
at the time of the intrinsic call. |
| CCG (0) | Request granted. The program was already in privileged
mode at the time of the intrinsic call. |
| CCL (1) | Not returned. |
