    摘要: Transactional execution branch indications are placed into one or more transaction diagnostic blocks when a transaction is aborted. Each branch indication specifies whether a branch was taken, as a result of executing a branch instruction within the transaction. As the transaction executes and a branch instruction is encountered, a branch indication is set in a vector indicating whether the branch was taken. Then, if the transaction aborts, the indicators are stored in one or more transaction diagnostic blocks providing a branch history usable in diagnosing the failure.

    摘要: A transaction is initiated via a transaction begin instruction. During execution of the transaction, the transaction may abort. If the transaction aborts, a determination is made as to the type of transaction. Based on the transaction being a first type of transaction, resuming execution at the transaction begin instruction, and based on the transaction being a second type, resuming execution at an instruction following the transaction begin instruction. Regardless of transaction type, resuming execution includes restoring one or more registers specified in the transaction begin instruction and discarding transactional stores. For one type of transaction, the nonconstrained transaction, the resuming includes storing information in a transaction diagnostic block.

    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.

    摘要: A transaction executing within a computing environment ends prior to completion; i.e., execution is aborted. Pursuant to aborting execution, a hardware transactional execution CPU mode is exited, and one or more of the following is performed: restoring selected registers; committing nontransactional stores on abort; branching to a transaction abort program status word specified location; setting a condition code and/or abort code; and/or preserving diagnostic information.
