The code did not work, and appeared to have not worked for a long time. We could not come up with any use for a function that would give control to an ESPIE exit before invoking the Real Storage Manager for a DAT exception. There would not seem to be anything useful that an ESPIE exit could do in that case, since it would not know whether or not the Real Storage Manager would be able to resolve the exception.
The ISVs were notified, and I don't remember any objections. Note that for Program Interrupt Codes x'10', x'11',x'38, x'39,' x'3A', and x'3B', an exception that does not get resolved by the Real Storage Manager will get presented to SPIE/ESPIE exits as interrupt code 4.
