摘要:
An instruction is provided to perform clearing of selected address translation buffer entries (TLB entries) associated with a particular address space, such as segments of storage or regions of storage. The buffer entries related to segment table entries or region table entries or ASCE addresses. The instruction can be implemented by software emulation, hardware, firmware or some combination thereof.
摘要:
A translation table entry contains a change recording override field for controlling whether a change bit is to be set on a store or not. Each 4K byte block of main storage has an associated storage key comprising a change bit. The change recording override field controls whether the change bit of the storage key associated with the desired 4K byte block of main storage is set to 1 for a store operation.
摘要:
Processing restrictions of a computing environment are filtered and blocked, in certain circumstances, such that processing continues despite the restrictions. One restriction includes an indication that address translation is prohibited, in response to a buffer miss. When a processing unit of the computing environment is met with this restriction, it performs a comparison of page indices, which indicates whether the address translation can continue. If address translation can continue, the restriction is ignored. The processing unit includes a processor or a pageable entity, as examples.
