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)

# `orx` — OR
> **Category:** [Integer ALU](../categories/alu.md) · **Form:** [X](../forms/X.md) · **Opcode:** `0x7c000378`
<!-- GENERATED: BEGIN -->
## Assembler Mnemonics
| Mnemonic | XML entry | Flags | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `or` | `orx` | — | OR |
| `or.` | `orx` | Rc=1 | OR |
## Syntax
```asm
or[Rc] [RA], [RS], [RB]
```
## Encoding
### `orx` — form `X`
- **Opcode word:** `0x7c000378`
- **Primary opcode (bits 05):** `31`
- **Extended opcode:** `444`
- **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` | orx: read | Source GPR (alias for RD in some stores). |
| `RB` | orx: read | Source GPR. |
| `RA` | orx: write | Source GPR (`r0``r31`). |
| `CR` | orx: 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
### `orx`
- **Reads (always):** `RS`, `RB`
- **Reads (conditional):** _none_
- **Writes (always):** `RA`
- **Writes (conditional):** `CR`
## Status-Register Effects
- `orx`: **CR0** ← signed-compare(result, 0) with `SO ← XER[SO]`, when `Rc=1`.
## Operation (pseudocode)
```
RA <- (RS) | (RB)
```
## 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
- **Canonical "register move".** `or RA, RS, RS` copies `RS` to `RA` — assemblers expose this as the simplified mnemonic **`mr RA, RS`** (move register). It is the single most common instruction in PPC disassembly after loads/stores.
- **Operand convention** is X-form (`RA` destination, `RS`/`RB` sources).
- **64-bit operation** on Xenon; full bitwise OR across 64 bits.
- **No `OE` or `XER` side effects.** Only `Rc=1` updates `CR0`.
- **64-bit CR update on Xenon, 32-bit in xenia-rs.** [`interpreter.rs:357`](../../xenia-rs/crates/xenia-cpu/src/interpreter.rs#L357) truncates with `as i32 as i64`. For `or. RA, RS, RS` (i.e. `mr.`), this means CR0 reflects the low 32 bits of `RS` only — distinguishable from spec only when the high 32 bits are non-zero with all-zero low 32.
- **`or 26, 26, 26` is the Xbox 360 NOP variant** historically used to mark cache lines or signal the dispatch unit (alongside `nop``ori 0,0,0`). Disassembly may show this — it has no architectural effect.
## Related Instructions
- [`orcx`](orcx.md) — OR with complement.
- [`norx`](norx.md) — NOR (and the basis for `not`).
- [`andx`](andx.md), [`xorx`](xorx.md), [`eqvx`](eqvx.md) — sister logicals.
- [`ori`](ori.md), [`oris`](oris.md) — D-form immediate variants (no record form).
- `mr` (simplified) — `or RA, RS, RS`.
