As previously discussed <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2013-10/msg00345.html>, it would be desirable to be able to use the same version of the soft-fp code in the Linux kernel as well as in glibc and libgcc (instead of an old version in the kernel that's missing ten years of bug fixes, performance improvements and new features), and to that end it is useful to add to glibc's copy features in the kernel's copy, even when they are not directly useful in glibc. To that end, this patch adds one of those features: support for more precise "invalid" exceptions describing the particular kind of invalid operation. These are relevant for powerpc emulation, and are also as described in IEEE 754-2008 as sub-exceptions. The set of sub-exceptions here is the union of those supported on powerpc and those from IEEE 754-2008 (the former adds a distinction between 0/0 and Inf/Inf; the latter adds a distinction between Inf*0 from multiplication and the same from fma). This includes sub-exceptions for sqrt, conversions to integer and comparisons that are not supported in the kernel; I see no obvious reason for these being missing from the kernel support, given that they are supported on powerpc so accurate powerpc emulation should generate them. Tested for powerpc-nofpu that the disassembly of installed shared libraries is unchanged by this patch. * soft-fp/soft-fp.h (FP_EX_INVALID_SNAN): New macro. (FP_EX_INVALID_IMZ): 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., 2000-2013, indicating that every year in the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed individually.
