Independent review of P3 batch 2 (52ece4b) found that all three VMX128
register accessors disagreed with canary's FormatVX128/VX128_R bitfield
struct (`xenia-canary/src/xenia/cpu/ppc/ppc_decode_data.h:484-663`). The
audit at line 2958 had marked these "confirmed-clean" but had miscounted
LSB-first bitfield offsets.
Canary's actual layout (LSB-first, GCC/Clang/MSVC on x86):
VA128 = VA128l(5) | VA128h(1)<<5 | VA128H(1)<<6
= PPC[11:15] | PPC[26]<<5 | PPC[21]<<6 (7-bit selector, 3 fields)
VB128 = VB128l(5) | VB128h(2)<<5
= PPC[16:20] | PPC[30:31]<<5 (7-bit selector, 2 fields)
VD128 = VD128l(5) | VD128h(2)<<5
= PPC[6:10] | PPC[28:29]<<5 (7-bit selector, 2 fields)
VX128_R Rc = PPC[25] (host bit 6) not PPC[27] as prior fix had
The buggy convention was internally consistent with hand-crafted test
fixtures (which set bits 29/21/22 to encode the high registers, matching
the buggy accessor). Real Xbox 360 game code follows canary's convention,
so any production VMX128 instruction with VR >= 32 was silently mis-decoded
— but no unit test exercised that path until the va128 fix in 52ece4b
exposed the inconsistency.
Changes:
- decoder.rs: rewrite va128/vb128/vd128/vx128r_rc_bit to canary positions.
Drop the speculative `key4_dt` dot-form dispatch in decode_op6 — canary
has no separate dot-form opcodes for VX128_R compute ops; Rc is a
runtime modifier read by the interpreter via vx128r_rc_bit().
- decoder.rs tests: rewrite vmx128_test_word helper for canary layout;
rename/re-encode vmx128_vd128_*, vmx128_va128_*, vmx128_vb128_* tests.
- interpreter.rs: update encode_vpkd3d128 test helper to encode VD via
canary's VD128h field; tests now pass vd=96 explicitly.
- tests/disasm_goldens.rs: replace the vrlimi128/vsrw128/vpermwi128/
vperm128 hand-encoded raws with canary-compliant encodings; introduce
a shared `encode_vx128` helper.
- tests/golden/vmx128_registers.json: re-encode 9 entries (vperm128,
vsrw128 ×2, vpermwi128, vrlimi128 ×2, vmaddfp128, vmaddcfp128,
vnmsubfp128) to canary-compliant raws preserving the same expected
operand strings.
- audit-findings.md: new PPCBUG-700 entry documenting the discovery and
invalidating the audit's "confirmed-clean" assessment.
Affects all VMX128 binary ops (vaddfp128, vsubfp128, vmulfp128, vand128,
vor128, vxor128, vnor128, vandc128, vsel128, vslo128, vsro128, vperm128,
vsrw128, vmaddfp128, vmaddcfp128, vnmsubfp128, vpkd3d128, vpkshss128,
vpkshus128, vpkswss128, vpkswus128, vpkuhum128, vpkuhus128, vpkuwum128,
vpkuwus128, vmsum3fp128, vmsum4fp128, vrlimi128, vpermwi128 — 30+
opcodes), plus VX128_R compare dot-forms.

PPCBUG-424: vmaddfp128 computed VA×VB+VD instead of ISA-mandated VA×VD+VB.
PPCBUG-425: vmaddcfp128 computed VD×VB+VA instead of ISA-mandated VA×VD+VB.
Root-cause discovered while writing the operand-order regression tests:
va128() was extracting PPC bits 6-10 (the same field as vd128's low 5 bits),
not PPC bits 11-15 where VA lives in VX128 form. This meant va128() silently
aliased vd128 for any instruction where VA != VD, making the operand swap
invisible in the existing denorm-flush test (which used VA == VD == v2).
Fixes in this commit:
- decoder.rs: va128() now extracts PPC bits 11-15 (host bits 20-16) + bit29.
The vmx128_va128_uses_bit29 test encoding updated to match the correct field.
- interpreter.rs: vmaddfp128 changed from ai.mul_add(bi,di) to ai.mul_add(di,bi)
(VA×VD+VB). vmaddcfp128 changed from di.mul_add(bi,ai) to ai.mul_add(di,bi).
vmaddfp128_flushes_denormal_inputs redesigned with distinct VA/VD/VB registers
(v1/v2/v3) so the flush test is independent of the accessor fix.
New vmaddfp128_operand_order_va_times_vd_plus_vb and
vmaddcfp128_operand_order_va_times_vd_plus_vb tests verify 2×3+10=16.
- disasm_goldens.rs + vmx128_registers.json: vmaddfp128/vmaddcfp128/vnmsubfp128
golden raws updated to properly encode VA at PPC bits 11-15 (new raws:
0x146328D4 / 0x14632914 / 0x14632954). vperm128 / vsrw128 golden operands
updated to reflect correct VA extraction (v4 instead of v3/v0).
Affects all VMX128 binary ops that call va128(): vaddfp128, vsubfp128,
vmulfp128, vmaddfp128, vmaddcfp128, vnmsubfp128, vperm128, vsrw128 etc.

PPCBUG-565: Add vx128_5_sh() to decoder.rs — 4-bit shift at PPC bits
22-25 (host bits 6-9). The correct MSB is at PPC bit 22 (host bit 9).
PPCBUG-361: vsldoi128 was reading the SH MSB from host bit 4 (PPC bit
27, reserved) instead of host bit 9 (PPC bit 22). All shift amounts >= 8
decoded incorrectly (e.g. shift=8 executed as shift=0). Replace the
inline bit-shuffle with instr.vx128_5_sh().
Also fix vx128_p_perm_assembles_correctly test: replace nonexistent
DecodedInstr::from_raw() calls with struct literal construction.

PPCBUG-563: Add vx128_4_imm() (PPC bits 11-15) and vx128_4_z() (PPC bits
24-25) accessors to decoder.rs for VX128_4-form instructions.
PPCBUG-315: vrlimi128 was reading z from host bits 16-17 (a subset of IMM)
and mask from host bits 2-5 (a reserved/XO region). Replace with the
correct accessors: z selects which word-lane to start the rotation from
(0-3); IMM is the 5-bit per-lane blend mask.

PPCBUG-562: Add vc_rc_bit() (PPC bit 21) and vx128r_rc_bit() (PPC bit 27)
to decoder.rs. The generic rc_bit() reads bit 0 (PPC bit 31); all vcmp XO
values are even so bit 0 is always 0, making CR6 permanently dead.
PPCBUG-275/276/420/421: Replace rc_bit() with vc_rc_bit() at all 8 pure
VC-form vcmp arms (vcmpequb, vcmpequh, vcmpgtub, vcmpgtsb, vcmpgtuh,
vcmpgtsh, vcmpgtuw, vcmpgtsw) and with the correct per-form accessor at
the 4 combined arms (vcmpeqfp|128, vcmpgefp|128, vcmpgtfp|128,
vcmpequw|128) and vcmpbfp|128.
PPCBUG-422: VX128_R-form 128-variants in combined arms now use
vx128r_rc_bit() instead of vc_rc_bit().
PPCBUG-423/600: Add 5 dot-form key entries to decode_op6 so
vcmp*fp128./vcmpequw128. decode as the correct opcode instead of Invalid.
Uses a 5-bit key (bits22-24 + bit25 + bit27) for dot-forms to avoid
aliasing against the shift/merge group (which sets bit25=1 when bit27=1).
Interpreter uses vx128r_rc_bit() to conditionally update CR6.

PPCBUG-561: Add DecodedInstr::mb_md() to decoder.rs — the correct MD-form
6-bit mask-begin reconstruction (MB[4:0] at PPC bits 21-25, MB[5] at PPC
bit 26). The disassembler already had the correct local formula; this
promotes it to a single source of truth on DecodedInstr.
PPCBUG-046: All 6 doubleword-rotate arms (rldicl, rldicr, rldic, rldimi,
rldcl, rldcr) inlined "(instr.mb() << 1) | ((instr.raw >> 1) & 1)" which
reads SH5 (host bit 1) instead of MB5 (host bit 5). For the canonical
"clrldi r3, r4, 32" zero-extend idiom (mb=32 → MB5=1, MB[4:0]=0), the
wrong formula produced mb=0, making the instruction a no-op and leaving
upper 32 bits of the GPR polluted. Replace all 6 sites with instr.mb_md().

PPCBUG-040: decoder.rs sh64() assembled the XS-form shift amount as
(SH[4:0] << 1) | SH[5] instead of (SH[5] << 5) | SH[4:0]. Every
`sradi` with shift N ∈ 1..=62 executed with a completely wrong shift
count (e.g. shift=32 executed as shift=1).
PPCBUG-560: disasm_goldens.rs rldicl() test helper was encoding sh[5:1]
at PPC bits 16-20 and sh[0] at PPC bit 30 — exactly backwards. The wrong
encoder and wrong decoder cancelled out, hiding PPCBUG-040 from tests.
Fix both together so tests validate ISA-correct encodings.

Split the monolithic interpreter into cohesive modules: dedicated
decoder (decoder.rs) producing 8-byte DecodedInstr; opcode tables
(opcode.rs); explicit traps (trap.rs); FPSCR helpers (fpscr.rs);
overflow/carry helpers (overflow.rs); a 4 KiB-page-versioned decode
cache and basic-block cache (block_cache.rs); and a full VMX/VMX128
implementation (vmx.rs) covering AltiVec + Xenon's 128-bit extensions.
Add the parallel-execution substrate behind --parallel: a 7-party
phaser (phaser.rs) for round-based barrier sync, ReservationTable
(reservation.rs) for guest LL/SC, and the per-HW-thread scheduler
core (scheduler.rs) that owns ThreadRefs, runqueues, and pending IRQs.
Disassembler is now the single source of truth: disasm.rs gains the
full base + extended + VMX128 mnemonic set, with golden JSON fixtures
and a disasm_goldens test suite. Add a criterion-style interpreter
bench. context.rs grows the per-thread state the new modules need
(reservation slot, FPSCR, vector regs).
