I don't think IBM will be rewriting the HLASM macro assembler using 64 bit
arithmetic. I know I will not be rewriting z390 macro assembler because its
written entirely in J2SE Java which uses 32 bit default arithmetic in source
statements.

I am not sure what you are asking.
The RMFINTERVAL is defined in 2 places (as far as I am aware).
The first is the SYNC parameter in ERBRMF00. This is (by custom) usually set to
10 or 15 minute intervals (with 1 sample/second).
SYNC(SMF) is a common value which says to use the INTVAL parameter

Most of them are locked, and since you can only see a few words of the

If you substitute 'free' with 'included with the OS' you have software and
tools that you can depend on to be available at any site you find yourself
working at. Debug tool, HLASM toolkit, and all other ISV's may or may not be
available.

If his code is running in key 0, then he can also set the appropriate bit in
the DEB and thus avoid the S306 ABEND. Or at least get past the S306 ABEND and
advance through system code until the next type of ABEND is uncovered.
