The hand-written parts of the manual still described how the retired xenia-rs interpreter behaved: its snapshots, Rust casts and helpers. Each of those 490 statements is now either restated as what Canary's emitters and x64 backend actually do (at the pinned canary_experimental commit), or dropped where it only made sense for xenia-rs. Checking them turned up claims that were wrong, not just outdated: - VSCR[SAT] is never modelled in Canary (DID_SATURATE is a stub and mfvscr cannot see it); the pages said saturating ops set it stickily. - Canary does not implement lswi/lswx/stswi/stswx, dcbi, mtfsb0/mtfsb1, vmsum*, vmhaddshs, vupkhpx/vupklpx, and most SPRs; pages described them as working. - Traps evaluate TO in Canary; stvebx/stvehx/stvewx store one element, not 16 bytes; mtmsrd writes only EE; fres/frsqrte/vrsqrtefp precision claims and the stfs "rounds under RN / sets FPSCR" claim contradicted the spec. - Reservations are a 64 KiB block bitmap plus a value compare, not per-address tracking. Claims that neither Canary's source nor a public spec settles are marked unverified (NI at boot, vmaddcfp128 operand order, estimate bit-exactness). Generated regions are untouched; re-running the generator changes nothing. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

## Operation (pseudocode)
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
; No hand-written pseudocode for this instruction yet.
|
||
; The authoritative semantics are the Canary emitter snapshot under
|
||
; Implementation References; about half of Canary's emitters open
|
||
; with the PPC-style definition as a comment (`RD <- (RA) + (RB)`).
|
||
; Every side effect is also enumerated in the Register Effects and
|
||
; Status-Register Effects tables above.
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## C Translation Example
|
||
|
||
```c
|
||
/* No hand-written C yet. Translate the Canary emitter snapshot */
|
||
/* under Implementation References; its HIR maps directly: */
|
||
/* f.LoadGPR(n) / f.StoreGPR(n, v) -> r[n] / r[n] = v */
|
||
/* f.LoadFPR / StoreFPR, f.LoadVR / StoreVR -> f[n], v[n] */
|
||
/* f.Load(ea, T), f.Store(ea, v) -> raw read / write; emitters */
|
||
/* wrap them in f.ByteSwap for the big-endian guest value */
|
||
/* f.UpdateCR(n, v) -> CR field n from v's LOW 32 BITS vs 0 */
|
||
/* f.LoadCA / f.StoreCA -> xer.CA; f.StoreSAT -> vscr.SAT */
|
||
/* i.XO.RA, i.D.DS, ... -> the bit-fields listed under Operands */
|
||
/* The Register Effects and Status-Register Effects tables above */
|
||
/* enumerate every side effect a faithful translation must emit. */

## Special Cases & Edge Conditions
|
||
|
||
- **Bitwise AND-with-complement of the full 128 bits.** `VD = VA & ~VB`. Lane width is irrelevant — the operation is bit-for-bit. Order matters: `vandc VA, VB` is *not* the same as `vandc VB, VA`.
|
||
- **Standard "clear bits in mask" idiom.** Drop bits selected by the mask in `VB`: `vandc VD, VD, vMask`. Equivalent to `VD &= ~vMask`. Cheaper than synthesising the complement first with [`vnor`](vnor.md) and then ANDing.
|
||
- **Compare → mask → mask-out idiom.** A compare produces per-lane all-ones; pair with `vandc` to keep only the lanes where the compare was *false*. The complement avoids an extra [`vnor`](vnor.md) or `vxor` with all-ones.
|
||
- **No flags, no exceptions, no `VSCR` interaction.**
|
||
- **Aliasing legal.** `vandc VD, VD, VD` clears `VD` (`x & ~x = 0`).
|
||
- **VMX128 sibling (`vandc128`).** Identical semantics with the extended 128-register encoding; Canary's `vandc128` shares `vandc`'s body after decoding the 7-bit indices.
|
||
|
||
## Related Instructions
|
||
|
||
- [`vand`](vand.md) — the un-complemented sibling.
|
||
- [`vor`](vor.md), [`vxor`](vxor.md), [`vnor`](vnor.md) — the rest of the bitwise family.
|
||
- [`vsel`](vsel.md) — bitwise select using a third register; useful when the "false" branch is non-zero.
|
||
- [`vcmpequb`](vcmpequb.md) and other compares — natural mask producers.
