@Peter, sometimes it is just intellectual curiosity. I spent a half hour this morning reading the Vector instruction section of the z15 PoOps. I have absolutely zero intent of ever writing a vector-hardware-exploiting program in assembler. But I was just curious about how those instructions worked.
I suspect some folks may have the same sort of curiosity about SIGP.

Curious: in what way is knowing how Linux issues SIGP of much use to anyone? Or the #defines to the order codes (all of those order codes are presumably well documented in the PoP)? Most SIGPs are not intended for use outside of the OS.
