R15=13 A permanent I/O error occurred or an unsupported device
was specified. The two rightmost positions of the
user's Ry register contain the first two sense bytes DIAGNOSE Code X'24' --Device Type and Features DIAGNOSE Code X'24' requests CP to provide a virtual machine with
identifying information and status information atout a specified virtual
device. The virtual machine must specify the virtual device for which
information is requested. CP returns information atout the virtual
device and associated real device in the Rx. Ry, and Ry+l registers. CP also provides a condition code identifying the specific device
information returned to the virtual machine. When a virtual machine issues DIAGNOSE Code X'24', the Rx register must contain the virtual device address for which information is
requested or the value negative 1 (-1). Specify -1 when the device is a
virtual console whose address is unknown to the virtual machine. When CP returns control to the virtual machine,
registers contain device information. The Ry
information about the virtual device and the Ry+l about the real device. If -1 was specified and CP

the Ry, Ry+l, and Bx

CP obtains device information from three control blocks: virtual
device information from the virtual device block (VDEVBLOK), and real
device information from the real device block (RDEVBLOK) and from
NICBLOK. The following diagrams identify specific information returned by CP and show how to locate this information in the Rx, Ry, and Ry+1
registers. The symbolic names used in these diagrams are the symbolic
names used with VDEVBLOK, RDEVBLOK, and NICBLOK in 12gic • Byte 0 RDEVTMCD - or -
