Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of the IBM Automatic Binary Optimizer * * (ABO) for z/OS, v1.1 with programs with * * multiple CSECTs and alternate entry points. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: In some very rare situations, ABO may * * not be able to correctly optimize * * programs that have multiple CSECTs * * with alternate entry points, resulting * * in an assertion failure and a return * * code of '16'. * * * * The situation arises if an input * * program has a CSECT with an alternate * * entry point name that is the same as * * the CSECT name of another CSECT in the * * same program. Furthermore, this other * * CSECT must occur before the CSECT with * * the alternate entry point name. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF. * * * **************************************************************** ABO was modified to skip optimizing CSECTs that have an alternate entry point name that is the same as some other CSECTs in the program.
Problem conclusion
ABO no longer abends with a return code 16 in these rare instances.
