According to ISO C23 (7.6.4.4), fesetexcept is supposed to set
floating-point exception flags without raising a trap (unlike
feraiseexcept, which is supposed to raise a trap if feenableexcept was
called with the appropriate argument).
This is a side-effect of how we implement the GNU extension
feenableexcept, where feenableexcept/fesetenv/fesetmode/feupdateenv
might issue prctl (PR_SET_FPEXC, PR_FP_EXC_PRECISE) depending of the
argument. And on PR_FP_EXC_PRECISE, setting a floating-point exception
flag triggers a trap.
To make the both functions follow the C23, fesetexcept and
fesetexceptflag now fail if the argument may trigger a trap.
The math tests now check for an value different than 0, instead
of bail out as unsupported for EXCEPTION_SET_FORCES_TRAP.

On powerpc, SET_RESTORE_ROUND uses inline assembly to optimize the
prologue get/save/set rounding mode operations for POWER9 and
later by using 'mffscrn' where possible, this was introduced by
commit f1c56cdff0.
GCC version 14 onwards supports builtins as __builtin_set_fpscr_rn
which now returns the FPSCR fields in a double. This feature is
available on Power9 when the __SET_FPSCR_RN_RETURNS_FPSCR__ macro
is defined.
GCC commit ef3bbc69d15707e4db6e2f198c621effb636cc26 adds
this feature.
Changes are done to use __builtin_set_fpscr_rn instead of mffscrn

This patch adds the narrowing fused multiply-add functions from TS

f32fmaf64, f32fmaf32x, f32xfmaf64 for all configurations; f32fmaf64x,
f32fmaf128, f64fmaf64x, f64fmaf128, f32xfmaf64x, f32xfmaf128,
f64xfmaf128 for configurations with _Float64x and _Float128;
__f32fmaieee128 and __f64fmaieee128 aliases in the powerpc64le case
(for calls to ffmal and dfmal when long double is IEEE binary128).
Corresponding tgmath.h macro support is also added.
The changes are mostly similar to those for the other narrowing
functions previously added, especially that for sqrt, so the
description of those generally applies to this patch as well. As with
sqrt, I reused the same test inputs in auto-libm-test-in as for
non-narrowing fma rather than adding extra or separate inputs for
narrowing fma. The tests in libm-test-narrow-fma.inc also follow
those for non-narrowing fma.
The non-narrowing fma has a known bug (bug 6801) that it does not set
errno on errors (overflow, underflow, Inf * 0, Inf - Inf). Rather
than fixing this or having narrowing fma check for errors when
non-narrowing does not (complicating the cases when narrowing fma can
otherwise be an alias for a non-narrowing function), this patch does
not attempt to check for errors from narrowing fma and set errno; the
CHECK_NARROW_FMA macro is still present, but as a placeholder that
does nothing, and this missing errno setting is considered to be
covered by the existing bug rather than needing a separate open bug.
missing-errno annotations are duly added to many of the
auto-libm-test-in test inputs for fma.
This completes adding all the new functions from TS 18661-1 to glibc,
so will be followed by corresponding stdc-predef.h changes to define
__STDC_IEC_60559_BFP__ and __STDC_IEC_60559_COMPLEX__, as the support
for TS 18661-1 will be at a similar level to that for C standard
floating-point facilities up to C11 (pragmas not implemented, but
library functions done). (There are still further changes to be done
to implement changes to the types of fromfp functions from N2548.)
Tested as followed: natively with the full glibc testsuite for x86_64
(GCC 11, 7, 6) and x86 (GCC 11); with build-many-glibcs.py with GCC
11, 7 and 6; cross testing of math/ tests for powerpc64le, powerpc32
hard float, mips64 (all three ABIs, both hard and soft float). The
different GCC versions are to cover the different cases in tgmath.h
and tgmath.h tests properly (GCC 6 has _Float* only as typedefs in

This patch adds the narrowing square root functions from TS 18661-1 /

(for calls to fsqrtl and dsqrtl when long double is IEEE binary128).
Corresponding tgmath.h macro support is also added.
The changes are mostly similar to those for the other narrowing
functions previously added, so the description of those generally
applies to this patch as well. However, the not-actually-narrowing
cases (where the two types involved in the function have the same
floating-point format) are aliased to sqrt, sqrtl or sqrtf128 rather
than needing a separately built not-actually-narrowing function such
as was needed for add / sub / mul / div. Thus, there is no
__nldbl_dsqrtl name for ldbl-opt because no such name was needed
(whereas the other functions needed such a name since the only other
name for that entry point was e.g. f32xaddf64, not reserved by TS
18661-1); the headers are made to arrange for sqrt to be called in
that case instead.
The DIAG_* calls in sysdeps/ieee754/soft-fp/s_dsqrtl.c are because
they were observed to be needed in GCC 7 testing of
riscv32-linux-gnu-rv32imac-ilp32. The other sysdeps/ieee754/soft-fp/

build-many-glibcs.py, but if they do turn out to be needed in more
files with some other configuration / GCC version, they can always be
added there.

We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012

On platforms where long double may have two different formats, i.e.: the
same format as double (64-bits) or something else (128-bits), building
with -mlong-double-128 is the default and function calls in the user
program match the name of the function in Glibc. When building with
-mlong-double-64, Glibc installed headers redirect such calls to the
appropriate function.
Likewise, the internals of glibc are now built against IEEE long double.
However, the only (minimally) notable usage of long double is difftime.

Similar to string2.h (18b10de7ce) and string3.h (09a596cc2c) this

only powerpc implements some optimizations. This kind of optimization
is better implemented by the compiler (which handles the architecture
ISA transparently).
Also, for the specific optimized powerpc implementation the code is
becoming convoluted and these micro-optimization are hardly wildly
used, even more being a possible hotspot in realword cases
(non-default rounding are used only on specific cases and exception
handling are done most likely only on errors path). Only x86
implements similar optimization (on fenv.h) also indicates that
these should no be on libc.
The math/test-fenv already covers all math/test-fenvinline tests,
so it is safe to remove it.

special treatment in code that is shared between long double and float128.
It is done by adding a list, similar to internal symbol redifinition,

2. Create new FPSCR value: clear enables and set new rounding mode.

Since other bits just pass through, there is no need to write them.
Instead, write just the changed values (enables and rounding mode),
which can be a bit more efficient.
fegetenv_status is used variously to retrieve the FPSCR exception enable

fegetenv_status() wants to use the lighter weight instruction 'mffsl'
for reading the Floating-Point Status and Control Register (FPSCR).
It currently will use it directly if compiled '-mcpu=power9', and will
perform a runtime check (cpu_supports("arch_3_00")) otherwise.
Nicely, it turns out that the 'mffsl' instruction will decode to
'mffs' on architectures older than "arch_3_00" because the additional
bits set for 'mffsl' are "don't care" for 'mffs'. 'mffs' is a superset
of 'mffsl'.
So, just generate 'mffsl'.
fesetenv() reads the current value of the Floating-Point Status and Control
Register (FPSCR) to determine the difference between the current state of
exception enables and the newly requested state. All of these bits are also
returned by the lighter weight 'mffsl' instruction used by fegetenv_status().
Use that instead.
Also, remove a local macro _FPU_MASK_ALL in favor of a common macro,
FPU_ENABLES_MASK from fenv_libc.h.
Finally, use a local variable ('new') in favor of a pointer dereference
('*envp').
SET_RESTORE_ROUND uses libc_feholdsetround_ppc_ctx and
libc_feresetround_ppc_ctx to bracket a block of code where the floating point
rounding mode must be set to a certain value.
For the *prologue*, libc_feholdsetround_ppc_ctx is used and performs:
1. Read/save FPSCR.
2. Create new value for FPSCR with new rounding mode and enables cleared.
3. If new value is different than current value,
a. If transitioning from a state where some exceptions enabled,
enter "ignore exceptions / non-stop" mode.
b. Write new value to FPSCR.
c. Put a mark on the wall indicating the FPSCR was changed.
(1) uses the 'mffs' instruction. On POWER9, the lighter weight 'mffsl'
instruction can be used, but it doesn't return all of the bits in the FPSCR.
fegetenv_status uses 'mffsl' on POWER9, 'mffs' otherwise, and can thus be
used instead of fegetenv_register.
(3b) uses 'mtfsf 0b11111111' to write the entire FPSCR, so it must
instead use 'mtfsf 0b00000011' to write just the enables and the mode,
because some of the rest of the bits are not valid if 'mffsl' was used.
fesetenv_mode uses 'mtfsf 0b00000011' on POWER9, 'mtfsf 0b11111111'
otherwise.
For the *epilogue*, libc_feresetround_ppc_ctx checks the mark on the wall, then
calls libc_feresetround_ppc, which just calls __libc_femergeenv_ppc with
parameters such that it performs:
1. Retreive saved value of FPSCR, saved in prologue above.
2. Read FPSCR.
3. Create new value of FPSCR where:
- Summary bits and exception indicators = current OR saved.
- Rounding mode and enables = saved.
- Status bits = current.
4. If transitioning from some exceptions enabled to none,
enter "ignore exceptions / non-stop" mode.
5. If transitioning from no exceptions enabled to some,
enter "catch exceptions" mode.
6. Write new value to FPSCR.
The summary bits are hardwired to the exception indicators, so there is no
need to restore any saved summary bits.
The exception indicator bits, which are sticky and remain set unless
explicitly cleared, would only need to be restored if the code block
might explicitly clear any of them. This is certainly not expected.
So, the only bits that need to be restored are the enables and the mode.
If it is the case that only those bits are to be restored, there is no need to
read the FPSCR. Steps (2) and (3) are unnecessary, and step (6) only needs to
write the bits being restored.
We know we are transitioning out of "ignore exceptions" mode, so step (4) is
unnecessary, and in step (6), we only need to check the state we are
entering.
Since fe{en,dis}ableexcept() and fesetmode() read-modify-write just the
"mode" (exception enable and rounding mode) bits of the Floating Point Status
Control Register (FPSCR), the lighter weight 'mffsl' instruction can be used
to read the FPSCR (enables and rounding mode), and 'mtfsf 0b00000011' can be
used to write just those bits back to the FPSCR. The net is better performance.
In addition, fe{en,dis}ableexcept() read the FPSCR again after writing it, or
they determine that it doesn't need to be written because it is not changing.
In either case, the local variable holds the current values of the enable
bits in the FPSCR. This local variable can be used instead of again reading
the FPSCR.
Also, that value of the FPSCR which is read the second time is validated
against the requested enables. Since the write can't fail, this validation
step is unnecessary, and can be removed. Instead, the exceptions to be
enabled (or disabled) are transformed into available bits in the FPSCR,
then validated after being transformed back, to ensure that all requested
bits are actually being set. For example, FE_INVALID_SQRT can be
requested, but cannot actually be set. This bit is not mapped during the
transformations, so a test for that bit being set before and after
transformations will show the bit would not be set, and the function will
return -1 for failure.
Finally, convert the local macros in fesetmode.c to more generally useful
macros in fenv_libc.h.
The exceptions passed to fe{en,dis}ableexcept() are defined in the ABI
as a bitmask, a combination of FE_INVALID, FE_OVERFLOW, etc.
Within the functions, these bits must be translated to/from the corresponding
enable bits in the Floating Point Status Control Register (FPSCR).
This translation is currently done bit-by-bit. The compiler generates
a series of conditional bit operations. Nicely, the "FE" exception
bits are all a uniform offset from the FPSCR enable bits, so the bit-by-bit
operation can instead be performed by a shift with appropriate masking.
