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.
