Re: Trying to understand SMF30_RAXFLAGS
IBM XL C/C++ library, the ffs (find first set [bit]) function. Not only does it count from the LSb, it counts from one. So ffs(0x04) would return 3. BTW and FWIW, the link garbling was at your end I think. My post survived the round trip to my Outlook just fine except for folding/truncation.

Thanks but it is pretty clear that the bits are X'80' and so forth. The client was seeing 1, 2 and 3 because they were looking at the wrong byte (SMF30MES). Displaying the correct byte they are seeing 128's, which is good -- says audit is on but no usage.
