I think security auditors should be happy, provided they have done their
homework.
CSA was wide open to everybody since the beginning, the option to close the
gate (userkeycsa(no)) is available for a decade already and now the gate can be
controlled in detail.

You can ask IBM for the information about CF levels 18 - 22. If structure sizes
need to be increased during a CF level upgrade, this is documented with the CF
level. Add up the increments and you have a good estimate of the Level 22 sizes.

Possible, but still this must run serialized, so both exits cannot run together
and modify each other's view of the message.

Yes, and as s consequence, if he does not receive an 0C4, he will probably be
clearing someone else's storage.
however the relation with 'the other subsystem' is also interesting.

Interesting twist in the problem.
Good to know how you eliminated the problem, but as a real sysprog I am curious
what the cause of the problem was. How could the other subsystem interfere with
the MPF exit? How does it 'trap' the message? It looks like it is not
serialized with the MPF exit, s
The offset in the module is 0DA. In your assembler listing you can see which
instruction it is.
The failing instruction is 4110 D088: LA R1,136(R13)
This is loading the address of a fullword at +136 the workarea. The savearea
goes to +132, so this is @ARGLST.
Not exactly a reason for a 0C4. Do yo
Peter,
Ok, than I misunderstood what was or could be put into the PC microcode.
