I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:

I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

This patch adds the narrowing fused multiply-add functions from TS
18661-1 / TS 18661-3 / C2X to glibc's libm: ffma, ffmal, dfmal,
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
glibc headers, GCC 7 has proper _Float* support, GCC 8 adds
__builtin_tgmath).
include/math.h has a mechanism to redirect internal calls to various
libm functions, that can often be inlined by the compiler, to call
non-exported __* names for those functions in the case when the calls
aren't inlined, with the redirection being disabled when
NO_MATH_REDIRECT. Add fma to the functions to which this mechanism is
applied.
At present, libm-internal fma calls (generally to __builtin_fma*
functions) are only done when it's known the call will be inlined,
with alternative code not relying on an fma operation being used in
the caller otherwise. This patch is in preparation for adding the TS
18661 / C2X narrowing fma functions to glibc; it will be natural for
the narrowing function implementations to call the underlying fma
functions unconditionally, with this either being inlined or resulting
in an __fma* call. (Using two levels of round-to-odd computation like
that, in the case where there isn't an fma hardware instruction, isn't
optimal but is certainly a lot simpler for the initial implementation
than writing different narrowing fma implementations for all the
various pairs of formats.)
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py that installed stripped shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch (using
<https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2021-September/130991.html>
to fix installed library stripping in build-many-glibcs.py). Also
tested for x86_64.
I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
The default sysdeps/ieee754 fma implementations rely on exceptions and
rounding modes to achieve correct results through internal use of
round-to-odd. Thus, glibc configurations without support for
exceptions and rounding modes instead need to use implementations of
fma based on soft-fp.
At present, this is achieved via having implementation files in
soft-fp/ that are #included by sysdeps files for each glibc
configuration that needs them. In general this means such a
configuration has its own s_fma.c and s_fmaf.c.
TS 18661-1 adds functions that do an operation (+ - * / sqrt fma) on
arguments wider than the return type, with a single rounding of the
infinite-precision result to that return type. These are also
naturally implemented using round-to-odd on platforms with hardware
support for rounding modes and exceptions but lacking hardware support
for these narrowing operations themselves. (Platforms that have
direct hardware support for such narrowing operations include at least
ia64, and Power ISA 2.07 or later, which I think means POWER8 or
later.)
So adding the remaining TS 18661-1 functions would mean at least six
narrowing function implementations (fadd fsub fmul fdiv ffma fsqrt),
with aliases for other types and further implementations in some
configurations, that need to be overridden for configurations lacking
hardware exceptions and rounding modes. Requiring all such
configurations (currently seven of them) to have their own source
files for all those functions seems undesirable.
Thus, this patch adds a directory sysdeps/ieee754/soft-fp to contain
libm function implementations based on soft-fp. This directory is
then used via Implies from all the configurations that need it, so no
more files need adding to every such configuration when adding more
functions with soft-fp implementations. A configuration can still
selectively #include a particular file from this directory if desired;
thus, the MIPS #include of the fmal implementation is retained, since
that's appropriate even for hard float (because long double is always
implementated in software for MIPS64, so the soft-fp implementation of
fmal is better than the ldbl-128 one).
This also provides additional motivation for my recent patch removing
--with-fp / --without-fp: previously there was no need for correct use
of --without-fp for no-FPU ARM or SH3, and now we have autodetection
nofpu/ sysdeps directories can be used by this patch for those
configurations without imposing any new requirements on how glibc is
configured.
(The mips64/*/fpu/s_fma.c files added by this patch are needed to keep
the dbl-64 version of fma for double, rather than the ldbl-128 one,
used in that case.)
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py that installed stripped shared
libraries are unchanged by this patch.
