Error description

  • CICS TS 4.2
    When formatting a CICS auxillary trace dataset which contains
    trace points RZ 0145 and RZ 0146 ( CICS RZ domain) an
    overlength trace data exception occurs as following :
    TR 0101 TRPT  *EXC* OVERLENGTH-ENTRY : CALLING DOMAIN WAS RZ :
    PARAMETER LIST WAS FUNCTION(TRACE_PUT) POINT_ID(145)
                   DATA1(1E4857D8 , 00000040)
                   DATA2(1EC8AF50 , 1EC8AF50)
    .
    Data 2 , parm2 has the length 1EC8AF50 which is too long .
    DFHRZTCX is being called by DFHMRXM
    with function init_xm_client passing dfhxmac_arg.
    .
    DFHMRXM has passed a bad length of DATA2 to DFHRZTCX. When the
    data is formatted offline the overlength exception occurs.
    Trace points RZ 0145 Entry and RZ 0146 Exit are
    not produced, only the overlength exception trace
    TR 0101 TRPT  *EXC* OVERLENGTH-ENTRY appears.
    .

    ****************************************************************
    DFHMRXM getmains an rztx block before calling the RZ domain
    during MRXM INIT processing. The request stream block is held in
    Register 9. There is code within the generated assembler routine
    which modifies R9 to contain the address of the rztx after it is
    getmained. When the DFHXMAC plist is set up to call the RZ
    domain, the length of the rztx is passed as data item 2 on the
    call. The compiler uses the value in R9 when setting the length
    as it is unaware that the generated code modified the value in
    the register. When DFHRZTC is called, the entry trace call fails
    with TR 0101 TRPT  *EXC* - OVERLENGTH-ENTRY as the length value
    is invalid.

Problem conclusion

  • DFHMRXM has been changed to correctly decorate the generate
    statement and associated label with the appropriate REFS, SETS
    and FLOWS compiler directives.
