C23 adds various <math.h> function families originally defined in TS 18661-4. Add the exp2m1 and exp10m1 functions (exp2(x)-1 and exp10(x)-1, like expm1). As with other such functions, these use type-generic templates that could be replaced with faster and more accurate type-specific implementations in future. Test inputs are copied from those for expm1, plus some additions close to the overflow threshold (copied from exp2 and exp10) and also some near the underflow threshold. exp2m1 has the unusual property of having an input (M_MAX_EXP) where whether the function overflows (under IEEE semantics) depends on the rounding mode. Although these could reasonably be XFAILed in the testsuite (as we do in some cases for arguments very close to a function's overflow threshold when an error of a few ulps in the implementation can result in the implementation not agreeing with an ideal one on whether overflow takes place - the testsuite isn't smart enough to handle this automatically), since these functions aren't required to be correctly rounding, I made the implementation check for and handle this case specially. The Makefile ordering expected by lint-makefiles for the new functions is a bit peculiar, but I implemented it in this patch so that the test passes; I don't know why log2 also needed moving in one Makefile variable setting when it didn't in my previous patches, but the failure showed a different place was expected for that function as well. The powerpc64le IFUNC setup seems not to be as self-contained as one might hope; it shouldn't be necessary to add IFUNCs for new functions such as these simply to get them building, but without setting up IFUNCs for the new functions, there were undefined references to __GI___expm1f128 (that IFUNC machinery results in no such function being defined, but doesn't stop include/math.h from doing the redirection resulting in the exp2m1f128 and exp10m1f128 implementations expecting to call it). Tested for x86_64 and x86, and with build-many-glibcs.py. |

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 and x86_64-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 arc*-*-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 loongarch64-*-linux-gnu Hardware floating point, LE only. m68k-*-linux-gnu microblaze*-*-linux-gnu mips-*-linux-gnu mips64-*-linux-gnu or1k-*-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 riscv32-*-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 https://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 https://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 https://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.
