sim f3c512f2ab docs(ppc-manual): check every xenia-rs claim against Canary's source
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Checking them turned up claims that were wrong, not just outdated: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.

# `xori` — XOR Immediate
> **Category:** [Integer ALU](../categories/alu.md) · **Form:** [D](../forms/D.md) · **Opcode:** `0x68000000`
<!-- GENERATED: BEGIN -->
## Assembler Mnemonics
| Mnemonic | XML entry | Flags | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `xori` | `xori` | — | XOR Immediate |
## Syntax
```asm
xori [RA], [RS], [UIMM]
```
## Encoding
### `xori` — form `D`
- **Opcode word:** `0x68000000`
- **Primary opcode (bits 05):** `26`
- **Extended opcode:** —
- **Synchronising:** no
| Bits | Field | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 05 | `OPCD` | primary opcode |
| 610 | `RT` | destination GPR (or RS when storing) |
| 1115 | `RA` | source GPR (0 ⇒ literal 0 for RA0 forms) |
| 1631 | `D/SI/UI` | 16-bit signed or unsigned immediate |
## Operands
| Field | Role | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `RS` | xori: read | Source GPR (alias for RD in some stores). |
| `UIMM` | xori: read | 16-bit unsigned immediate. Zero-extended. |
| `RA` | xori: write | Source GPR (`r0``r31`). |
## Register Effects
### `xori`
- **Reads (always):** `RS`, `UIMM`
- **Reads (conditional):** _none_
- **Writes (always):** `RA`
- **Writes (conditional):** _none_
## Status-Register Effects
_No condition-register or status-register effects._
## Operation (pseudocode)
```
RA <- (RS) ^ (0x0000 || UIMM)
```
## 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
- **No record form.** Like [`ori`](ori.md), there is no `xori.`. To get a CR0 update follow with `cmpwi` or use [`xorx`](xorx.md) with `Rc=1`.
- **Immediate is zero-extended** to 64 bits. Only the low 16 bits of `RA` can be flipped; the high 48 bits are passed through from `RS` unchanged.
- **`xori 0, 0, 0` is a valid NOP encoding** but the canonical NOP is `ori 0, 0, 0`. Disassemblers should still display this as `xori r0, r0, 0` or recognise it as a no-op.
- **64-bit operation in Canary.** `f.Xor(RS, EXTZ16(UI))` on the full `u64`.
- **No `XER`, no `CR`** side effects.
- **`RA = 0` reads `r0`** (not literal zero); see [`ori`](ori.md).
- **Useful for masked toggle.** `xori rA, rS, mask` flips the bits of `rS` indicated by `mask` (low 16 bits only).
