Error description

• Your CICS region receives a storage violation reported
  in the following message:
  
  DFHSM0102 applid tran task# A storage violation (code X'0D11')
            has been detected by module DFHSMMF.
  
  When reviewing the dump produced, you notice the following
  exception trace entry examining the trace domain:
  TR 0101 TRPT  *EXC* - OVERLENGTH-ENTRY : CALLING DOMAIN WAS SM :
                        PARAMETER LIST WAS FUNCTION(TRACE_PUT)
                        POINT_ID(D11) DATA1(address, length)
                        DATA2(address , length)
                        DATA3(address , FFFFFFF8)
                        DATA4(address , length)
  
  The piece of storage violated had a length x'100000' or 1M.
  Above notice the negative length FFFFFFF8, which is causing
  the trace domain to put out the above exception.
  Module DFHSMMF is passing this incorrect length in the
  parameter list.

  ****************************************************************
  DFHSMMF storage check failure procedure takes a fullword
  length and manipulates it using a halfword field. This results
  in an invalid negative fullword length parameter being passed to
  DFHTRPT which reports an OVERLENGTH_ENTRY error.
  
  Keywords: 0101 TRPT OVERLENGTH-ENTRY DFHSMMF
  

Problem conclusion

• The length declaration within DFHSMMF storage check failure
  procedure has been changed to allow fullwords.
