64-bit address terminology

z/OS DFSORT Application Programming Guide
SC23-6878-00

When referring to 64-bit addresses in this chapter:
  • A clean 24-bit address refers to binary zeros in the high-order 5 bytes followed by a 24-bit address in the low-order 3 bytes, that is, X’0000000000aaaaaa’
  • A clean 31-bit address refers to binary zeros in the high-order 4 bytes followed by a 31-bit address in the low-order 4 bytes, that is, X’00000000aaaaaaaa’ where Bit 32 of the 31-bit address must be 0.
  • A 64 bit address uses all 64-bits for the address.
The following summarizes the previous information:
