Subscribe

APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The tls_model __attribute__ settings is not used for a specific
    configuration.
    
    When accessing TLS data within a thread local struct that is
    >32kb in size, incorrect data is returned.
    

Local fix

  • N/A
    

Problem summary

  • PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
    Incorrect code is sometimes generated when any one TLS data
    structure is >32kb.  In these cases, setting the tls_model
    attribute does not not affect the model setting used by the
    compiler.
    
    USERS AFFECTED:
    Those using TLS with fast relocation access.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The issue was corrected, and TLS data structures >32kb are
    automatically made to use non-fast relocation access models.
    

Temporary fix
