TS 18661-1 defines libm functions that carry out an operation (+ - * / sqrt fma) on their arguments and return a result rounded to a (usually) narrower type, as if the original result were computed to infinite precision and then rounded directly to the result type without any intermediate rounding to the argument type. For example, fadd, faddl and daddl for addition. These are the last remaining TS 18661-1 functions left to be added to glibc. TS 18661-3 extends this to corresponding functions for _FloatN and _FloatNx types. As functions parametrized by two rather than one varying floating-point types, these functions require infrastructure in glibc that was not required for previous libm functions. This patch provides such infrastructure - excluding test support, and actual function implementations, which will be in subsequent patches. Declaring the functions uses a header bits/mathcalls-narrow.h, which is included many times, for each relevant pair of types. This will end up containing macro calls of the form __MATHCALL_NARROW (__MATHCALL_NAME (add), __MATHCALL_REDIR_NAME (add), 2); for each family of narrowing functions. (The structure of this macro call, with the calls to __MATHCALL_NAME and __MATHCALL_REDIR_NAME there rather than in the definition of __MATHCALL_NARROW, arises from the names such as "add" *not* themselves being reserved identifiers - meaning it's necessary to avoid any indirection that would result in a user-defined "add" macro being expanded.) Whereas for existing functions declaring long double functions is disabled if _LIBC in the case where they alias double functions, to facilitate defining the long double functions as aliases of the double ones, there is no such logic for the narrowing functions in this patch. Rather, the files defining such functions are expected to use #define to hide the original declarations of the alias names, to avoid errors about defining aliases with incompatible types. math/Makefile support is added for building the functions (listed in libm-narrow-fns, currently empty) for all relevant pairs of types. An internal header math-narrow.h is added for macros shared between multiple function implementations - currently a ROUND_TO_ODD macro to facilitate writing functions using the round-to-odd implementation approach, and alias macros to create all the required function aliases. libc_feholdexcept_setroundf128 and libc_feupdateenv_testf128 are added for use when required (only for x86_64). float128_private.h support is added for ldbl-128 narrowing functions to be used for _Float128. Certain things are specifically omitted from this patch and the immediate followups. tgmath.h support is deferred; there remain unresolved questions about how the type-generic macros for these functions are supposed to work, especially in the case of arguments of integer type. The math.h / bits/mathcalls-narrow.h logic, and the logic for determining what functions / aliases to define, will need some adjustments to support the sqrt and fma functions, where e.g. f32xsqrtf64 can just be an alias for sqrt rather than a separate function. TS 18661-1 defines FP_FAST_* macros but no support is included for defining them (they won't in general be true without architecture-specific optimized function versions). For each of the function groups (add sub mul div sqrt fma) there are always six functions present (e.g. fadd, faddl, daddl, f32addf64, f32addf32x, f32xaddf64). When _Float64x and _Float128 are supported, there are seven more (e.g. f32addf64x, f32addf128, f64addf64x, f64addf128, f32xaddf64x, f32xaddf128, f64xaddf128). In addition, in the ldbl-opt case there are function names such as __nldbl_daddl (an alias for f32xaddf64, which is not a reserved name in TS 18661-1, only in TS 18661-3), for calls to daddl to be mapped to in the -mlong-double-64 case. (Calls to faddl just get mapped to fadd, and for sqrt and fma there won't be __nldbl_* functions because dsqrtl and dfmal can just be mapped to sqrt and fma with -mlong-double-64.) While there are six or thirteen functions present in each group (plus __nldbl_* names only as an ABI, not an API), not all are distinct; they fall in various groups of aliases. There are two distinct versions built if long double has the same format as double; four if they have distinct formats but there is no _Float64x or _Float128 support; five if long double has binary128 format; seven when _Float128 is distinct from long double. Architecture-specific optimized versions are possible, but not included in my patches. For example, IA64 generally supports narrowing the result of most floating-point instructions; Power ISA 2.07 (POWER8) supports double values as arguments to float instructions, with the results narrowed as expected; Power ISA 3 (POWER9) supports round-to-odd for float128 instructions, so meaning that approach can be used without needing to set and restore the rounding mode and test "inexact". I intend to leave any such optimized versions to the architecture maintainers. Generally in such cases it would also make sense for calls to these functions to be expanded inline (given -fno-math-errno); I put a suggestion for TS 18661-1 built-in functions at <https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/SummerOfCode>.

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 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 tilegx-*-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.
