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)

# `creqv` — Condition Register Equivalent
> **Category:** [Control / CR / SPR](../categories/control.md) · **Form:** [XL](../forms/XL.md) · **Opcode:** `0x4c000242`
<!-- GENERATED: BEGIN -->
## Assembler Mnemonics
| Mnemonic | XML entry | Flags | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `creqv` | `creqv` | — | Condition Register Equivalent |
## Syntax
```asm
creqv [CRBD], [CRBA], [CRBB]
```
## Encoding
### `creqv` — form `XL`
- **Opcode word:** `0x4c000242`
- **Primary opcode (bits 05):** `19`
- **Extended opcode:** `289`
- **Synchronising:** no
| Bits | Field | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 05 | `OPCD` | primary opcode (19) |
| 610 | `BT/BO` | target / branch options |
| 1115 | `BA/BI` | source A / CR bit to test |
| 1620 | `BB` | source B |
| 2130 | `XO` | extended opcode (10 bits) |
| 31 | `LK` | link flag |
## Operands
| Field | Role | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `CRBA` | creqv: read | CR source bit A (031). |
| `CRBB` | creqv: read | CR source bit B (031). |
| `CRBD` | creqv: write | CR destination bit (031). |
## Register Effects
### `creqv`
- **Reads (always):** `CRBA`, `CRBB`
- **Reads (conditional):** _none_
- **Writes (always):** `CRBD`
- **Writes (conditional):** _none_
## Status-Register Effects
_No condition-register or status-register effects._
## Operation (pseudocode)
```
; Pseudocode derives directly from the xenia-rs interpreter
; arm (see Implementation References). Operation semantics:
; - Read source operands from the fields listed under Operands.
; - Apply the arithmetic / logical / memory action described
; in the Description field above.
; - Write results to the destination register(s); update any
; status bits enumerated under Status-Register Effects.
; Consult the IBM AIX reference link under IBM Reference for
; canonical PPC-style pseudocode where xenia's expression is
; terse.
```
## 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
- **Operation.** `CR[CRBD] ← ¬(CR[CRBA] XOR CR[CRBB])` — i.e. logical equivalence (XNOR). Result is 1 iff `CRBA` and `CRBB` agree.
- **`crset BT` idiom.** With identical operands, `creqv BT, BT, BT` always yields 1 (any bit XNOR'd with itself is 1). This is the canonical PowerPC **set-to-1** for a single CR bit; assemblers recognise the simplified mnemonic `crset BT`.
- **Bit-level operands.** Like all CR-logical ops, the three operands are 5-bit absolute CR-bit indices (0..31). Mixing CR fields is fine.
- **Use case.** Branch on "A == B" of two prior compare results. Example: `crxor` of CR0.SO and CR1.SO gives "differ"; `creqv` gives "agree".
- **No `Rc` / `OE`.** Doesn't touch CR0, XER, or any other state beyond the named bit.
- **Not synchronising.** Reorderable.
- **xenia status.** Interpreter dispatches through the generic CR-logical helper; canary emits the host XNOR equivalent. The `crset` simplified form is the most common occurrence in real Xbox 360 code.
## Related Instructions

- [`cror`](cror.md), [`crorc`](crorc.md), [`crnor`](crnor.md), [`crnand`](crnand.md) — OR family.
- [`crxor`](crxor.md) — the dual; `crxor BT, BT, BT` is the standard **clear-to-0** idiom.
- [`mcrf`](mcrf.md) — bulk CR-field move.
- [`bcx`](../branch/bcx.md) — consumes the synthesised bit.
### Simplified Mnemonics
| Simplified | Expansion | Effect |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `crset BT` | `creqv BT, BT, BT` | force `CR[BT] ← 1` |
