But an additional question would be as follows: Will SWAREQ still work if SWA=BELOW? Does the SVA mechanism still work in that case? If not, how do I test to determine if JSCBJCTA is an SVA token or a 24-bit pointer? On Sun, 25 May 2025 at 13:09, Steff Gladstone <[email protected]> wrote: > A couple of questions: > > 1.
