KVM is probably the main reason for the storage-key-removal facility. Allows
hardware price to be much cheaper as it cannot run the traditional mainframe
workloads (z/OS, etc).
How would the instrction be interruptable?
How would the lengths of the source and destinations be specified?

Isn't that in parallel with DAT?

Not if the code is executing in a getmained area. I've often put code in such
areas for various reasons (e.g. OPEN exits, I/O error exits. etc.), and it's
annoying to have to set up base registers.
But I confess I think an "MVCRL" instruction where *both* source and
destination are relative to
If the source is relative to the instruction address, the code would most like
be non-reentrant.

Is this because there's no instruction format with two RI fields and a length?
