Abstract
Method and means to provide a mechanism by which a hypervisor can permit a real machine to interpretively execute certain I/O instructions independently of the value of an I-bit in the subchannel. This is necessary as the I-bit covers all I/O instructions that can be interpretively executed; however, there can be instances where the hypervisor cannot allow the interpretive execution of other I/O instructions but can permit the interpretive execution of the SIGA instruction.
