ISO C2X has made some changes to the handling of feature test macros related to features from the floating-point TSes, and to exactly what such features are present in what headers, that require corresponding changes in glibc. * For the few features that were controlled by __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_BFP_EXT__ (and the corresponding DFP macro) in C2X, there is now instead a new feature test macro __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_EXT__ covering both binary and decimal FP. This controls CR_DECIMAL_DIG in <float.h> (provided by GCC; I implemented support for the new feature test macro for GCC 11) and the totalorder and payload functions in <math.h>. C2X no longer says anything about __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_BFP_EXT__ (so it's appropriate for that macro to continue to enable exactly the features from TS 18661-1). * The SNAN macros for each floating-point type have moved to <float.h> (and been renamed in the process). Thus, the copies in <math.h> should only be defined for __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_BFP_EXT__, not for C2X. * The fmaxmag and fminmag functions have been removed (replaced by new functions for the new min/max operations in IEEE 754-2019). Thus those should also only be declared for __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_BFP_EXT__. * The _FloatN / _FloatNx handling for the last two points in glibc is trickier, since __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_TYPES_EXT__ is still in C2X (the integration of TS 18661-3 as an Annex, that is, which hasn't yet been merged into the C standard git repository but has been accepted by WG14), so C2X with that macro should not declare some things that are declared for older standards with that macro. The approach taken here is to provide the declarations (when __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_TYPES_EXT__ is enabled) only when (defined __USE_GNU || !__GLIBC_USE (ISOC2X)), so if C2X features are enabled then those declarations (that are only in TS 18661-3 and not in C2X) will only be provided if _GNU_SOURCE is defined as well. Thus _GNU_SOURCE remains a superset of the TS features as well as of C2X. Some other somewhat related changes in C2X are not addressed here. There's an open proposal not to include the fmin and fmax functions for the _FloatN / _FloatNx types, given the new min/max operations, which could be handled like the previous point if adopted. And the fromfp functions have been changed to return a result in floating type rather than intmax_t / uintmax_t; my inclination there is to treat that like that change of totalorder type (new symbol versions etc. for the ABI change; old versions become compat symbols and are no longer supported as an API). Tested for x86_64 and x86. |

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 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 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 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.
