	Sigma: four-bank, four-port, interleaved memory, allowed CPU and three
I/O Processors to chase each other through memory. IOPs came in two types
SIOP and MIOP (it's been too long, I don't recall if SIOPs were used with
tape-drives, and MIOPs with disks and other random devices)

	It's still a case of determining what really generated the interrupt --
from within the interrupt handler, and then dispatching to the correct
sub-handler.

360/370 had svc, i/o, program, external/timer, machine-check interrupts
... loaded new psw (instruction address) from low store at same time as
storing old psw (interrupted instruction address). interrupts stored
information about the interrupt, in the case of i/o interrupt, it stored
the interrupting device address (channel, controller, device) and the
status (channel status word).

old ios3270 version of "green card" that I did q&d convert to html

low store layout for interrupting, old/new psw, csw, etc
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/gcard.html#4

channel status word (for i/o interrupt)
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/gcard.html#6

certain kinds of remote terminals had several termainals connected to
single device address/port/line ... so there was additional work to find
out which of several remote terminals ... sharing same line ... was
responsible.

note that 360/370 interrupts didn't save/restore registers ... so there
was standard interrupt handlers to store registers of the interrupted
process and load registers for the interrupt handler.

FWIW, my green card and my flowcharting template are both in my Struble

re:
http://manana.garlic.com/~lynn/2016d.html#93 Is it a lost cause?

closer to the sigma was series/1. the series/1 peachtree processor
was significant more capable than what was selected for the 37x5
communication controllers. early 70s, the science center ...
some past posts
http://manana.garlic.com/~lynn/subtopic.html#545tech 

strongly lobbied the communication group to choose the preachtree
processor for the 3705 (rather than the processor they were designing)
... and lost.

the folklore is that the official series/1 RPS system had been done by
some former kingston os/360 MFT people that moved to boca and tried to
reimplement os/360 MFT ... which wasn't good match for the series/1. The
folklore for the alternative EDX system was originally done by some
summer co-op students at IBM San Jose Research physics lab.

Late 70s, early 80s, one of the baby bells did a 37x5/NCP emulator on
series/1 .... the encapsulated SNA RUs in real network, emulated SNA
sessions as "cross domain" (i.e. VTAM emulation with
no-single-point-of-failue session management out in distributed
series/1). Mid-80s, I got sucked into turning it into type-1 product.
We tried to put in brickwalls anticipating the corporate dirty tricks
that the communication group was well known for. What the communication
group then did can only be described as truth is stranger than fiction.

Old post with part of presentation that I gave in Raleigh at SNA

continue the lost cause theme ... periodically repeated, in the late
80s, a senior disk engineer got a talk scheduled at the world-wide,
internal-only, annual, communication group conference, supposedly on
3174 performance ... but opened the talk with the statement that the
communication group was going to be responsible for the demise of the
disk division. The issue was that the communication group had corporate
strategic "ownership" of everything that crossed datacenter walls and
they were strongly fighting off client/server and distributed computing
trying to preserve their (emulated) dumb termina paradigm and install
base. The disk division was seeing data fleeing the datacenter to more
distributed computing platforms with drop in disk sales. The disk
division had come up with a number of solutions to address the problem,
but they were constantly vetoed by the disk division. some past posts
http://manana.garlic.com/~lynn/subnetwork.html#terminal

a few short years later, the company goes into the red and was being
reorged into the 13 "baby blues" ... in preparation for breaking up the
company.

That was true only of the 1901..1903 processors.
More powerful processors had flip flop registers,
but still addressable as words 0..8, rather like thePDP 10.

Exactly. And I suspect the PC was flip flop based in all machines.

All machines of the ICL 1900 series, no doubt. Machines like the PDP-5 are few

I found a valid reason to use "execute":
execute MVC for a variable number of bytes

After using a 32 bit machine (IBM 360),
I found Z80 weak and tedious to program in assembler :-/
"C" to the rescue!


Years later, I finally used a 68000 based trainer in assembler.
Bliss!

For better or for worse, the VAX had a *very* rich instruction set. 
Probably the richest ever.

And it had proper direct 32 bit adsdressing, although of course memory 
was cheaper by then.

I REALLY, REALLY miss Execute on x86.

Which are nothing alike.  OTOH x86 can be clean today if you confine
yourself to a subset of instructions.

Execute is the lightest model of self-modifying code, which
is a least a bad habit, if not a clear no-no.

It was no accident that execute was not included in x86's. The
main need for it was in variable-port I/O, and it was corrected
by having I/O addressed via DX.

Agreed, but it got into early COBOL as the ALTER ... TO PROCEED TO ... 
statement. IMO its the worst misfeature that ever got into a high level 
language. I've seen it used in the past about once, in the worst-written 
system I've ever had the misfortune to see. Apart from ALTER statements 
it had:

- meaningless data names (all records and fields over 4 tape files called 
  MTnn where nn incremented in each successive line) and so on for 
  CFnn (cards), LPnn (line printer) and WSnn (working storage).

- no sections in PROCEDURE DIVISION, only paragraphs which all had 5
  digit numeric names, but not in any detectable sequence or meaningful
  order.

The outfit I worked for had unfortunately bought it. It was immediately 
scrapped when  we saw the code and we wrote an equivalent but much better 
system from scratch, but I digress....

ALTER was declared obsolete in COBOL 1985 and removed from the 
specification in 2002 but apparently is still supported by some compilers.

Sounds fun.

Do you mean you could permanently alter a goto statement as it were?

It was pretty fun on the PDP-10 and 360, but it was more of a band-aid
for holes in the instruction set.  On the 360 I think the vast
majority of EX instructions were to get the effect of a MVC or other
storage to storage instruction with a variable length operand.  That
was certainly what they had in mind when they made it modify the
second byte of the instruction.

Yup.  Fortran provided the same bad idea with assigned GOTOs:

222   ASSIGN 666 TO HELL
666   GO TO HELL,(666,222)
      END

(In most flavors of Fortran the list of statement numbers in the
assigned goto was optional.)

The original Fortran system didn't have subroutines, so you faked them
with assigned gotos.

FWIW, in APL you can generate an arbitrary string, store it in a 
variable, and try to execute the variable.  If the string is valid APL 
then it will execute.  APL being APL a line of code can do a tremendous 
lot, including editing the function in which it is contained.

The shell 'eval' is a similar concept:
submit a command to the interpreter
but with some degree of isolation so errors can be caught externally.
Often used to re-evaluate things like shell variables,
for auto-generated command lines.

The FORTRAN GOTO listed the possibilities, AIR, the COBOL one didn't.  I
never used it except in a "structured" way, but it would seem like bad
programmers could have had a lot of fun with it.

The real problem with ALTER was that the ALTER statements were often 
quite distant from the GO TOs they affected. In a badly written program 
it could be surprisingly difficult to work out whether a particular GO TO 
was the target of an ALTER statement, particularly of the program also 
included code from a COPY library.

Anyway, I think its justification was based on a false premise, that the 
sort of conditionals an ALTER would replace were so expensive to execute 
that merely using ALTERs would make a measurable difference to run times.

As you say, the simple approach was to write structured code and not use 
ALTERs, but remember that when COBOL was introduced, the concept of 
structured code was scarcely a gleam in the eye of Djikstra or Wirth.

And remember also that COBOL was designed to do very simple processing 
on very large data sets.

A COBOL *PROGRAMMER* is the lowest of the low. It is the analyst who 
does the real work, translating the business problem into code module 
and data dictionary specifications.
