Once again, can I strongly suggest that you pause your functionality
development for a while and invest some time into :

(prob/sup and TCB/SRB).
This routine should focus on grabbing diagnostic information into a s

Since you do not have z/XDC, taking this advice from Rob will save you
hundreds of hours of debugging later, PLUS ensure that your final product
is reliable and as error free as you can make it.

Yeah, it could go on for a decade or two but with far fewer programmers (most

I agree with Ray Mullins, Assembler is a niche market and shrinking.

Thanks! So the main points are (as I already thought) that an SRB isn't
related to any TCB's and is dispatched before any TCB's, or even if
there are no TCB's ready for work.
And (what I think you're saying) is that an IRB is related to a
particular TCB, which makes it quite different from an
STIMER(M) w/o (without) WAIT.
WAIT just places the RB in a wait so no IRB is required.

Johnson is correct.
To U.S. Jews, being Jewish is not just about religion
There is no one way that American Jews think about being Jewish, as the survey

ancestry or culture, some Jewish respondents pick each of those t
