If you're not traversing stack sections, complications related to header and trailer don't tend to come into play. Consider posting the entire linkage stack from start through time of error, along with the data from the SDWA which the OP indicates is not in the linkage stack. Unlike AI, RTM does not make stuff up. If there is a PSW, RTM found it somewhere, either in an RB/XSB or the linkage stack. If there is a problem marking the PSW as "from a linkage stack entry", that would be good to know. And for that, the information I mentioned above (plus all the data from the RBs/XSBs) would be needed for diagnosis.
