20090259875 | Store Clock and Store Clock Fast Instruction Execution - Two forms of TOD Clock instructions are provided, Store Clock and Store Clock Fast. Execution of the Store Clock Fast instruction may produce a time of day (TOD) result that is exactly the same as a previous TOD result, however execution of Store Clock Fast instructions while the clock is running always produce unique TOD results. | 10-15-2009 |
20120084488 | Dynamic Address Translation With Translation Exception Qualifier - What is provided is an enhanced dynamic address translation facility. In one embodiment, a virtual address to be translated and an initial origin address of a translation table of the hierarchy of translation tables are obtained. Dynamic address translation of the virtual address proceeds. In response to a translation interruption having occurred during dynamic address translation, bits are stored in a translation exception qualifier (TXQ) field to indicate that the exception was either a host DAT exception having occurred while running a host program or a host DAT exception having occurred while running a guest program. The TXQ is further capable of indicating that the exception was associated with a host virtual address derived from a guest page frame real address or a guest segment frame absolute address. The TXQ is further capable of indicating that a larger or smaller host frame size is preferred to back a guest frame. | 04-05-2012 |
