What is house keeping in assembler? And explain the
following code
HELLOTSO START 0
* PRINT NOGEN
BEGIN SAVE (14,12)
LR 12,15
USING TYPE,12
ST 13,SAVE+4
LA 11,SAVE
ST 11,8(13)
LR 13,11
Answer Posted / asm noob
To add to John's answer( #2), (the end of this program is
missing), this program will not assemble as R15 and R12
contains the address of the start of this program( LABEL
HELLOTSO). The USING Directive is mapping the label TYPE,
which is not defined in the above piece of code, so the base
address of this program is not established yet and the
variable SAVE is being referred.

In the house keeping section of an MVS assembly language program, like the one below STM R14,R12,12(R13) BASR R12,R0 USING *,R12,R11 LA R11,2048 LA R11,2048(R11,R12) .... .... 1. What if BASR R12,R0 IS NOT PRECEDE USING *,R12,R11? 2. USING (base address), REGISTER does USING directive says assembler to treat particular Register as a base register with the mentioned base address..in the above case * i.e current location counter..well if that is the case why we need BASR R12,R0 ? 3. What if I write like STM R14,R12,12(R13) BASR R12,R0 LA R11,2048 LA R11,2048(R11,R12) USING *,R12,R11 there is no address resolution being calculated in both LA statements so is it a right way to set Base register?..will there be any issues with Domain regarding R11 and R12?
