CR Register
TotalView writes information for each of the eight condition sets, appending a a >, <, or = symbol. For example, if the summary overflow (0x1) bit is set, TotalView might display the following:
0x22424444 (574768196) (0=,1=,2>,3=,4>,5>,6>,7>)
XER Register
Depending upon what was set, TotalView can display up to five kinds of information, as follows:
STD:0x%02x
The string terminator character (bits 25-31)
SL:%d
The string length field (bits 16-23)
S0
Displayed if the summary overflow bit is set (bit 0)
OV
Displayed if the overflow bit is set (bit 1)
CA
Displayed if the carry bit is set (bit 2)
For example:
0x20000002 (536870914) (STD:0x00,SL:2,CA)
