Peter Let then be specific
The first thing I do is get the low and high address of the program The program name is being passed as a parm to the Estae routine The case of where the abend happened in the program is handled nicely by file 192 The case of where the error PSW is not in the program range lend themselves to 2 possibiltles 1) a wild branch so if register 15 is zero the following code will yield a next address of 2 in the error PSW BAS R14,2(R15) 2) it would have to match RBOPSW of one of the rb’s in the rb chain If the RB is a SVRB then chain back and look for the PRB RB that called the SVC and that PRB should have the user program abend registers Thanks Joe Reichman On Tue, Nov 28, 2023 at 8:38 AM Peter Relson <rel...@us.ibm.com> wrote: > "Asked to update" does not shed much light.
