MechaCat02 e6d43a23ac chore: add migration/ bundle for cross-machine setup
Bundles state that lives OUTSIDE the xenia-rs repo so a fresh clone on
another machine can be brought up to identical configuration via
migration/setup.sh:

  - claude-memory/             ~/.claude/projects/-home-fabi-RE-Project-Sylpheed/memory/
                               (103 files, 1.1 MB - MEMORY.md + every
                                project_xenia_rs_*.md from audits
                                addis_signext through audit-058)
  - project-root/dot-claude/   <project-root>/.claude/settings.json
                               (Stop hook + permissions)
  - project-root/ppc-manual/   <project-root>/ppc-manual/
                               (PowerPC reference docs, 397 files, 3.7 MB)
  - project-root/run-canary.sh <project-root>/run-canary.sh
  - README.md                  Human-readable setup checklist
  - setup.sh                   Idempotent installer (also reclones
                               xenia-canary at pinned HEAD 6de80dffe)
  - MANIFEST.md                Per-file mapping + per-file-not-bundled
                               restoration recipe

Excluded from bundle (not shippable via git):
  - Sylpheed ISO (7.8 GB; copyright; manual copy required)
  - sylpheed.db (395 MB; regenerable from XEX via analysis tooling)
  - target/ build artifacts (rebuild on target)
  - audit-runs probe firehoses (.log/.stdout/.stderr ~11 GB; rerun if needed)
  - audit-runs memory dumps (.bin ~4.5 GB; rerun audit-026/027/029 if needed)
  - xenia-canary checkout (setup.sh reclones from
    git.mc02.dev/fabi/Xenia-Canary.git at HEAD 6de80dffe)

# `extswx` — Extend Sign Word
> **Category:** [Integer ALU](../categories/alu.md) · **Form:** [X](../forms/X.md) · **Opcode:** `0x7c0007b4`
<!-- GENERATED: BEGIN -->
## Assembler Mnemonics
| Mnemonic | XML entry | Flags | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `extsw` | `extswx` | — | Extend Sign Word |
| `extsw.` | `extswx` | Rc=1 | Extend Sign Word |
## Syntax
```asm
extsw[Rc] [RA], [RS]
```
## Encoding
### `extswx` — form `X`
- **Opcode word:** `0x7c0007b4`
- **Primary opcode (bits 05):** `31`
- **Extended opcode:** `986`
- **Synchronising:** no
| Bits | Field | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 05 | `OPCD` | primary opcode |
| 610 | `RT/FRT/VRT` | destination |
| 1115 | `RA/FRA/VRA` | source A |
| 1620 | `RB/FRB/VRB` | source B |
| 2130 | `XO` | extended opcode (10 bits) |
| 31 | `Rc` | record-form flag |
## Operands
| Field | Role | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `RS` | extswx: read | Source GPR (alias for RD in some stores). |
| `RA` | extswx: write | Source GPR (`r0``r31`). |
| `CR` | extswx: write (conditional) | Condition-register update. When `Rc=1`, CR field 0 (or CR6 for vector compares, CR1 for FPU) is updated from the result. |
## Register Effects
### `extswx`
- **Reads (always):** `RS`
- **Reads (conditional):** _none_
- **Writes (always):** `RA`
- **Writes (conditional):** `CR`
## Status-Register Effects
- `extswx`: **CR0** ← signed-compare(result, 0) with `SO ← XER[SO]`, when `Rc=1`.
## Operation (pseudocode)
```
RA <- EXTS_32_to_64((RS)[32:63])
```
## C Translation Example
```c
/* C translation: the xenia-rs interpreter arm below in */
/* Implementation References is the authoritative semantic */
/* snapshot. Translate it line-by-line: */
/* - ctx.gpr[N] -> r[N] (or f[]/v[] for FPRs/VRs) */
/* - mem.read_u*/write_u* -> mem_read_u*_be / mem_write_u*_be */
/* - ctx.update_cr_signed(fld, v) -> update_cr_signed(fld, v) */
/* - ctx.xer_ca / xer_ov / xer_so -> xer.CA / xer.OV / xer.SO */
/* The Register Effects and Status-Register Effects tables above */
/* enumerate every side effect a faithful translation must emit. */
```

## Special Cases & Edge Conditions
- **Sign-extends the low 32 bits of `RS` to 64 bits.** Bit 32 (sign bit of the word) is replicated through bits 031 of `RA`.
- **Used heavily in 32-to-64-bit promotion.** Most Xbox 360 ABI parameters are 32-bit; promoting a 32-bit `int` to a 64-bit GPR requires this instruction. Many functions emit it on entry to canonicalise their argument registers.
- **`Rc=1` CR0 update is correctly 64-bit.** [`interpreter.rs:399`](../../xenia-rs/crates/xenia-cpu/src/interpreter.rs#L399) uses `as i64` (no truncation) — one of the few xenia-rs sites where the spec width is honoured. The signed compare in CR0 reflects the full sign-extended value.
- **Operand convention** is the X-form one (`RA` destination, `RS` source).
- **No `XER` side effects.**
- **`RB` field unused.**
- **Aliasing is fine.** `extsw r3, r3` is the canonical "sign-extend in place" idiom.
- **Distinct from `srawi RA, RS, 31`**, which produces the *sign mask* (`-1` if negative else `0`) rather than the sign-extended value.
## Related Instructions
- [`extsbx`](extsbx.md), [`extshx`](extshx.md) — narrower sign extensions.
- [`srawix`](srawix.md) — to derive a sign mask instead.
- [`rldiclx`](rldiclx.md) — to *zero*-extend the low 32 bits.
- `lwa` / `lwax` (memory ops) — combined load-and-sign-extend; lives outside this set.
