SMF signatures include metadata describing both the record contents and the
number of records per type and subtype that are written during each interval.
Validation processing ensures that neither the record contents nor the counts
have changed.

Blessedly, the rules are different for NFS because the server handles integrity.

Since they drop the register addressing with PSW relative addressing
they execute faster. Does somebody have a list of S/370 instructions

Yep. Digital Research had a contract with all their prior customers.
If they cut the price for a new customer, they change the price and
REFUND the difference on all previous sales.

In some cases individual instuctions can't be directly replaced but code
sequences can. IAC, for someone who precedes z, a look at the current PoOps can
be an eye opener. I know that the mantra is "Those new instructions are just
for compilers.", but some of them warm the cockles of this old as
