We check the PTF instruction.

You could test some very basic things as well:

- you get a privileged pgm int in problem state,
- reserved bits in first operand cause specification pgm int,
- reserved FC values result in a specification pgm int,
- second operand is ignored.

Which second operand?

Sorry got it

I was a little fast in my answer, twice.
If the second operand is ignored, how would you like to check something like that? We can check that the result of the instruction is identical for the known effects the user can check what ever we put in there but how can we know if it is really ignored?






- We do not expect to support vertical polarization.

- We do not expect the Modified Topology Change Report to be

Forgive me if I'm missing something, but why _Modified_ Topology Change
Report?

Why list fc here again?
