Hercules: version 4.0.0 (4.0.0.8871),
last commit SHA: bec74e3a3dc26acb251eb820b3aeafcee0576b88
Host: Linux 5.0.0-32-generic #34~18.04.2-Ubuntu SMP Thu Oct 10 10:36:02 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Description: Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS
Codename: bionic
Bug description:
In instructions CFEBR(A), CFDBR(A), CGEBR(A), CGDBR(A) a pair check BFPREGPAIR_CHECK(r2, regs) should not be performed.
Details information:
According to z/Architecture Principes of Operation, оnly CFXBR(A) and CGXBR(A) instructions must have this check: "For CFXBR, CFXBRA, CGXBR and CGXBRA, the R2 field must designate a valid floating-point-register pair; otherwise, a specification exception is recognized".
The bug happened during installation Ubuntu 18.10 cosmic on hercules4. After 94% оf installation was completed, i received the following error:
