But wouldn't be great if the PoO could just be fed into a software emulator
creator (in machine-readable format, of course) and out would come a software
emulator. And the another process could create all the chips and microcode.
That way the PoO would always exactly match the processor.

Subject: Re: z14 PoO Available - VFLL instruction
All,
In the new PoO, on page 24-26, Programming Note for VFLL instruction,
there is what seems to be another copy-paste error. I quote:
* Programming Note*: If a trapping IEEE exception is
encountered during execution of VECTOR LOAD
LENGTHENED it is model dependent if the VIX in
the VXC field is the index of the source or target element
unless the IBM z/Architecture Principles of
Operation is installed in which case it is always the
index of the source element.
Beats me how the PoO could be installed in the processor,
but maybe I'm taking things too literally?
Can it be it should have referred to the vector-enhancement
facility 1 ?
Kind regards,
Abe Kornelis
