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. |

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. 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 csky-*-linux-gnuabiv2 hppa-*-linux-gnu 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 riscv64-*-linux-gnu sh[34]-*-linux-gnu sparc*-*-linux-gnu sparc64*-*-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.
