Siddhesh Poyarekar	6f2e90e78f	Make mantissa type of mp_no configurable ... The mantissa of mp_no is intended to take only integral values. This is a relatively good choice for powerpc due to its 4 fpus, but not for other architectures, which suffer due to this choice. This change makes the default mantissa a long integer and allows powerpc to override it. Additionally, some operations have been optimized for integer manipulation, resulting in a significant improvement in performance.	2013-03-26 19:28:50 +05:30
Siddhesh Poyarekar	1e3803454e	Revert configurable mantissa patch ... Reverts d22ca8cdfb since it is severely broken on 32-bit.	2013-03-15 23:18:51 +05:30
Siddhesh Poyarekar	d22ca8cdfb	Make mantissa type configurable ... This allows the default mantissa to be integral, with powerpc overriding it to take advantage of its FPUs.	2013-03-15 10:44:03 +05:30
Siddhesh Poyarekar	6d9145d817	Consolidate copies of mp code in powerpc ... Retain a single copy of the mp code in power4 instead of the two identical copies in powerpc32 and powerpc64.	2013-03-08 11:38:41 +05:30
