There is discussion on another list about the ability to
run MVS software under L/390.

This would seem to me to be similar to what CMS does when running
MVS object or load modules.  One requirement is to emulate
the system SVC's.  Two things are needed:  that Linux doesn't use the
required SVC's (or can pretend not to), and that an interface is
available for a user program to trap an SVC, do the required
processing and return.

Well, that would be for user mode emulation.  It could be done
with kernel emulation of the SVC's, again much easier if the
required SVC's weren't being used by L/390.

thanks,
