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)

# `sldx` — Shift Left Doubleword
> **Category:** [Integer ALU](../categories/alu.md) · **Form:** [X](../forms/X.md) · **Opcode:** `0x7c000036`
<!-- GENERATED: BEGIN -->
## Assembler Mnemonics
| Mnemonic | XML entry | Flags | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `sld` | `sldx` | — | Shift Left Doubleword |
| `sld.` | `sldx` | Rc=1 | Shift Left Doubleword |
## Syntax
```asm
sld[Rc] [RA], [RS], [RB]
```
## Encoding
### `sldx` — form `X`
- **Opcode word:** `0x7c000036`
- **Primary opcode (bits 05):** `31`
- **Extended opcode:** `27`
- **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` | sldx: read | Source GPR (alias for RD in some stores). |
| `RB` | sldx: read | Source GPR. |
| `RA` | sldx: write | Source GPR (`r0``r31`). |
| `CR` | sldx: 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
### `sldx`
- **Reads (always):** `RS`, `RB`
- **Reads (conditional):** _none_
- **Writes (always):** `RA`
- **Writes (conditional):** `CR`
## Status-Register Effects
- `sldx`: **CR0** ← signed-compare(result, 0) with `SO ← XER[SO]`, when `Rc=1`.
## Operation (pseudocode)
```
n <- (RB)[57:63]
RA <- ((RS) << n) if n < 64 else 0
```
## 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. */
```

ctx.gpr[instr.ra()] = if sh < 64 {
ctx.gpr[instr.rs()] << sh
} else { 0 };

## Special Cases & Edge Conditions
- **64-bit logical left shift.** `RA ← RS << (RB & 0x7F)` if the shift count is `< 64`, otherwise `RA = 0`. Bits shifted past bit 0 are discarded.
- **Critical: shift count is *7 bits*, not 6.** PowerISA reads `RB[57:63]` (7 bits, `0..127`). Counts in `[64, 127]` produce zero, *not* `RS << (count mod 64)`. Xenia respects this with `& 0x7F` and an explicit `if sh < 64` check ([`interpreter.rs:464`](../../xenia-rs/crates/xenia-cpu/src/interpreter.rs#L464)). C semantics' undefined behaviour for `<<` with a count `>= width` is a spec-violation source if you naïvely translate.
- **No `XER[CA]` produced** by left shifts. Logical right [`srdx`](srdx.md) and arithmetic right [`sradx`](sradx.md) differ here — arithmetic right *does* set `CA`.
- **`Rc=1` CR0 is correctly 64-bit.** [`interpreter.rs:467`](../../xenia-rs/crates/xenia-cpu/src/interpreter.rs#L467) uses `as i64` directly. CR0 reflects the sign of the full 64-bit shifted value (which is 0 for shifts ≥ 64, otherwise either `LT`/`GT`/`EQ`).
- **Strength-reduced from `mulli` for power-of-two multipliers.**
- **No `OE` bit.**
