For arguments with X^2 + Y^2 close to 1, clog and clog10 avoid large errors from log(hypot) by computing X^2 + Y^2 - 1 in a way that avoids cancellation error and then using log1p. However, the thresholds for using that approach still result in log being used on argument as large as sqrt(13/16) > 0.9, leading to significant errors, in some cases above the 9ulp maximum allowed in glibc libm. This patch arranges for the approach using log1p to be used in any cases where |X|, |Y| < 1 and X^2 + Y^2 >= 0.5 (with the existing allowance for cases where one of X and Y is very small), adjusting the __x2y2m1 functions to work with the wider range of inputs. This way, log only gets used on arguments below sqrt(1/2) (or substantially above 1), where the error involved is much less. Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 and powerpc. For the ulps regeneration I removed the existing clog and clog10 ulps before regenerating to allow any reduced ulps to appear. Tests added include those found by random test generation to produce large ulps either before or after the patch, and some found by trying inputs close to the (0.75, 0.5) threshold where the potential errors from using log are largest. [BZ #19016] * sysdeps/generic/math_private.h (__x2y2m1f): Update comment to allow more cases with X^2 + Y^2 >= 0.5. * sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/x2y2m1.c (__x2y2m1): Likewise. Add -1 as normal element in sum instead of special-casing based on values of arguments. * sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/x2y2m1f.c (__x2y2m1f): Update comment. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/x2y2m1l.c (__x2y2m1l): 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 2.6.32 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.
