Joseph Myers 23761119fe Clean up bits/math-finite.h for aliasing types.
This patch cleans up how bits/math-finite.h handles types that are
ABI-aliases of other types.

For such types, no __*_finite functions exist; instead,
bits/math-finite.h must redirect calls to a the functions for a
canonical choice of type for each floating-point format.  (For the
actual public interfaces, symbols need exporting for each type, even
those that are ABI-aliases, because of standard requirements that
programs can declare the functions themselves without including
<math.h>, but that does not apply to __*_finite.)

At present, there is a special-case conditional in bits/math-finite.h
on __MATH_DECLARING_LDOUBLE && defined __NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH to handle
redirecting long double function calls to double __*_finite.  This
patch replaces this by a more general mechanism.  math.h, before each
inclusion of bits/math-finite.h, defines _MSUFTO_ as the suffix to use
on the target of redirection, in addition to the existing _MSUF_.
This way, __MATH_DECLARING_LDOUBLE can go away, as can the special
conditional in bits/math-finite.h.  With this patch, math.h is now
prepared for the case of supporting float128 functions as aliases of
long double ones on platforms where long double is binary128, with
_MSUFTO_ appropriately defined for that case, and appropriate _MSUFTO_
definitions can easily be included when supporting _Float32 / _Float64
/ _Float32x / _Float64x (which will always be ABI-aliases of another
type when supported).

Tested for x86_64, and did a compilation test for ARM with
build-many-glibcs.py to cover the long double = double case.

	* math/math.h (_MSUFTO_): Define and undefine for each inclusion
	of <bits/math-finite.h>.
	(__MATH_DECLARING_LDOUBLE): Do not define and undefine for each
	inclusion of <bits/math-finite.h>.
	* math/bits/math-finite.h (__REDIRTO_X): Do not define
	conditionally on [__MATH_DECLARING_LDOUBLE && defined
	__NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH].
	(__MATH_REDIRCALL): Use _MSUFTO_ in __REDIRTO call.
	(__MATH_REDIRCALL_2): Likewise.
	(__MATH_REDIRCALL_INTERNAL): Likewise.
	(__REDIRFROM (lgamma, , _MSUF_)): Likewise.
	(__REDIRFROM (gamma, , _MSUF_)): Likewise.
	(__REDIRFROM (tgamma, , _MSUF_)): Likewise.

This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library.
See the file "version.h" for what release version you have.

The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems,
and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system.  It provides the
system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such
as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming
languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system.

In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to
implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications.
In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers.

The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the
GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu.  The current
GNU/Hurd support requires out-of-tree patches that will eventually be
incorporated into an official GNU C Library release.

When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library
requires Linux kernel version 3.2 or later.

Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be
installed for the pthread library to work correctly.

The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels:

	aarch64*-*-linux-gnu
	alpha*-*-linux-gnu
	arm-*-linux-gnueabi
	hppa-*-linux-gnu	Not currently functional without patches.
	i[4567]86-*-linux-gnu
	x86_64-*-linux-gnu	Can build either x86_64 or x32
	ia64-*-linux-gnu
	m68k-*-linux-gnu
	microblaze*-*-linux-gnu
	mips-*-linux-gnu
	mips64-*-linux-gnu
	powerpc-*-linux-gnu	Hardware or software floating point, BE only.
	powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu	Big-endian and little-endian.
	s390-*-linux-gnu
	s390x-*-linux-gnu
	sh[34]-*-linux-gnu
	sparc*-*-linux-gnu
	sparc64*-*-linux-gnu
	tilegx-*-linux-gnu
	tilepro-*-linux-gnu

If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc
maintainers; see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more
information.

See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install
the GNU C Library.  You might also consider reading the WWW pages for
the C library at http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/.

The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual
found in the `manual/' subdirectory.  The manual is still being updated
and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not
have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like.  For
corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component,
following the bug-reporting instructions below.  Please be sure to check
the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has
already been corrected.

Please see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting
information.  We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports.
This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly.

The GNU C Library is free software.  See the file COPYING.LIB for copying
conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require
these additional notices to be distributed.  License copyright years may be
listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in
the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed
individually.
