## 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
|
||
|
||
- **Load-right half of an unaligned vector.** `lvrx` reads `(EA mod 16)` bytes at the addresses *just below* `EA & ~0xF` (i.e., the bytes from the previous aligned line that fall on the right side of the unaligned vector) and places them in the **right** (low-address-byte → high-lane) of the destination; the left lanes are zero-filled.
|
||
- **Standard pair-mate of [`lvlx`](lvlx.md).** The recipe `lvlx VD, RA, RB ; lvrx Vtmp, RA, (RB+16) ; vor VD, VD, Vtmp` (or some alignment-aware variant) reconstructs the unaligned 16 bytes spanning the boundary at `EA`.
|
||
- **Right vs. left semantics.** "Right" refers to lower-numbered (high-significance) lanes after rotation, not in any byte-address sense — see PowerISA Cell BE addenda for the exact bit-position formulas.
|
||
- **No alignment masking.** Like `lvlx`, the exact `EA` is used; the value `EA mod 16` controls how data is rotated.
|
||
- **`RA0` semantics.** `RA = 0` selects literal zero.
|
||
- **Implementation in xenia.** The shared snapshot calls `vmx::load_vector_right(mem, ea)`, returning a zero-filled left side and the requested right-bytes payload.
|
||
- **Microsoft Xbox 360 specific.** Part of VMX128 / Cell BE, not in baseline Altivec.
|
||
- **VMX128 sibling (`lvrx128`).** Identical semantics; alternative operand encoding.
|
||
- **`lvrxl` is the LRU-hint variant.** Same data; cache hint ignored under emulation.

||
