This IDAPython port is experimental, i need testers to confirm that the mentioned instructions are being supported correctly.
The PowerPC processor module in IDA Pro does not handle Altivec/VMX instructions. Many well-known PowerPC implementations include support for Altivec (such as the Apple G4/G5 range, or the majority of next generation game consoles). Fortunately IDA Pro supports the concept of extension modules that can add support for non-standard instructions, so this extension adds support for the Altivec instruction set.
