>My guess is that the TLB has not been updated yet. That save performance as
the unallocation can wait until all CPs running in the address space have had
normal interrupts to process the changes.




The unallocation can wait until RSM sees a need to put them onto the available 
frames queue. It may well be that such a frame will be reused upon a later 
GETMAIN, when VSM assigns the same virtual address, I would understand.


The APAR decribes that marking frames as freemained frames avoids signaling all 
processors, which does not scale well with the large number of processors in 
z13 and newer machines. It probably avoids updating the TLBs.
