Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: All zDMF 3.4.1 users.                        *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Module GZDCTLM incurs an abend0c4-04    *
    *                      encrypting a PS file.                   *
    ****************************************************************
    GZDCTLM routine to add 8-byte prefix to each record gets called
    multiple times for the same cylinder buffer. Upon each call, the
    a full cylinder buffer length gets copied starting from the next
    track offset into the buffer. This leads to attempts to access
    data beyond the end of the cylinder buffer leading to possible
    various storage access violations (abend0c4 type).
    

Problem conclusion

  • GZDCTLM is modified to call the conversion routine once to add
    the record prefix or suffix data to blocks in a tracck or
    cylinder image buffer.
