Why do we have multiple base registers in certain programs?
Answer Posted / mike m
A SINGLE BASE REGISTER ACCOUNTS FOR 4096 BYTES OF STORAGE.
YOU NEED A BASE REG. FOR EACH 4K. IF YOUR PROGRAM IS 12K,
YOU NEED AT LEAST 3 BASE REGS.

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?
