    摘要: When an abort of a transaction occurs, a determination is made as to whether diagnostic information is to be stored in one or more transaction diagnostic blocks (TDBs). There are different types of transaction diagnostic blocks to accept diagnostic information depending on the type of abort and other considerations. As examples, there are a program-specified TDB in which information is stored if a valid TDB address is provided in a transaction begin instruction; a program interruption TDB, which is stored into when the program is aborted due to an interruption; and a program interception TDB, which is stored into when an abort results in an interception.

    摘要: A non-quiescing key setting facility is provided that enables manipulation of storage keys to be performed without quiescing operations of other processors of a multiprocessor system. With this facility, a storage key, which is accessible by a plurality of processors of the multiprocessor system, is updated absent a quiesce of operations of the plurality of processors. Since the storage key is updated absent quiescing of other operations, the storage key may be observed by a processor as having one value at the start of an operation performed by the processor and a second value at the end of the operation. A mechanism is provided to enable the operation to continue, avoiding a fatal exception.
