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)

# `vupklpx` — Vector Unpack Low Pixel
> **Category:** [VMX (Altivec)](../categories/vmx.md) · **Form:** [VX](../forms/VX.md) · **Opcode:** `0x100003ce`
<!-- GENERATED: BEGIN -->
## Assembler Mnemonics
| Mnemonic | XML entry | Flags | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `vupklp` | `vupklpx` | — | Vector Unpack Low Pixel |
## Syntax
```asm
vupklpx [VD], [VB]
```
## Encoding
### `vupklpx` — form `VX`
- **Opcode word:** `0x100003ce`
- **Primary opcode (bits 05):** `4`
- **Extended opcode:** `974`
- **Synchronising:** no
| Bits | Field | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 05 | `OPCD` | primary opcode (4) |
| 610 | `VRT/VD` | destination vector register |
| 1115 | `VRA/VA` | source A vector register |
| 1620 | `VRB/VB` | source B vector register |
| 2131 | `XO` | extended opcode (11 bits) |
## Operands
| Field | Role | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `VB` | vupklpx: read | Source B vector register. |
| `VD` | vupklpx: write | Destination vector register. |
## Register Effects
### `vupklpx`
- **Reads (always):** `VB`
- **Reads (conditional):** _none_
- **Writes (always):** `VD`
- **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
- **Unpack the low 4 of 8 pixel half-words.** The lower half-words of `VB` (`VB.h[4..7]`) are each decoded from 1-5-5-5 pixel format into a 32-bit word (`1.5.5.5 → 1.8.8.8`). Xenia uses `vmx::unpack_pixel_555`.
- **Output layout.** `VD.w[0..3]` receive the 4 decoded pixels in big-endian order.
- **Inverse of the low half of [`vpkpx`](vpkpx.md).**
- **No saturation, no flags, no VSCR.**
- **No VMX128 sibling.** VMX128 uses [`vupkd3d128`](../vmx128/vupkd3d128.md) for richer formats.
## Related Instructions
- [`vupkhpx`](vupkhpx.md) — high-half pixel unpack.
- [`vpkpx`](vpkpx.md) — the inverse pack.
- [`vupkhsb`](vupkhsb.md), [`vupklsb`](vupklsb.md), [`vupkhsh`](vupkhsh.md), [`vupklsh`](vupklsh.md) — sign-extending unpacks.
- [`vupkd3d128`](../vmx128/vupkd3d128.md) — VMX128 D3D-format unpack.
