For some reason, libc exports the symbol .cerror (HIDENAME(cerror)), albeit
in the FBSDprivate_1.0 version. It looks like there is no reason for this
since it is not used from other libraries. Given that it cannot be accessed
from C and its strange calling convention, it is rather unlikely that other
things rely on it. Perhaps it is from a time when symbols could not be
hidden.
Most of the amd64 assembler code jumps to .cerror using the GOT. It can jump
to it directly now, as in non-PIC mode.
There are also some minor size optimizations to instructions but they yield
virtually no benefit in the size of libc.so.7 due to padding.

Only amd64 and i386 architectures are supported. Libc uses rdtsc and

Hopefully, this code is going to migrate into vdso in some future.

It can also be overridden if someone comes up with a faster one that

r212976): order the incoming arguments to fscale as st(0), st(1), and

clang to pop it correctly. No binary change when compiled with gcc.
This fixes ldexp() when compiled with clang on amd64, which makes
drand48() and friends work correctly again, and this in turn fixes
perl's tempfile().

Looking at our source code history, it seems the uname(),
getdomainname() and setdomainname() system calls got deprecated
somewhere after FreeBSD 1.1, but they have never been phased out
properly. Because we don't have a COMPAT_FREEBSD1, just use
COMPAT_FREEBSD4.
Also fix the Linuxolator to build without the setdomainname() routine by
just making it call userland_sysctl on kern.domainname. Also replace the
setdomainname()'s implementation to use this approach, because we're
duplicating code with sysctl_domainname().
I wasn't able to keep these three routines working in our
COMPAT_FREEBSD32, because that would require yet another keyword for
syscalls.master (COMPAT4+NOPROTO). Because this routine is probably
unused already, this won't be a problem in practice. If it turns out to
be a problem, we'll just restore this functionality.

is used to set the ELF size attribute for functions. It isn't normally
critical but some things can make use of it (gdb for stack traces).
Valgrind needs it so I'm adding it in. The problem is present on all
branches and on both i386 and amd64.
1. Save and restore the control part of the MXCSR in addition to the
i387 control word to ensure that the two are consistent.
Note that standards don't require longjmp to restore either control
word, and none of Linux, MacOS X 10.3 and earlier, NetBSD, OpenBSD,
or Solaris do it. However, it is historical FreeBSD behavior, and
bde points out that it is needed to make longjmping out of a signal
handler work properly, given the way FreeBSD clobbers the FPU state
on signal handler entry.
2. Don't clobber the FPU exception flags in longjmp. C99 requires them
to remain unchanged.
instead of 32+32+15+1) on all arches that have such long doubles (amd64,
ia64 and i386). Large objects should be be accessed in large units,
and the 32+32+15+1[+padding] decomposition asks for almost the opposite
of that, sometimes resulting in very slow accesses depending on how
well the compiler ignores what we ask for and converts to the best
units for the given machine. E.g., on Athlons, there is a 10-20 cycle
penalty for accessing the middle 32-bit word immediately after an
80-bit store.
Whether actually using the alternative view is better is very machine-
dependent. A 32+32+16 view is probably best with old 32-bit systems
and gcc through 4.2.1. The compiler should mostly avoid the view and
generate best accesses, but gcc-4.2.1 is far from doing that. I think
64+16 is best for now. Similarly for doubles -- they should be using
64+0 especially on 64-bit machines, but fdlibm uses 32+32 extensively
for them. Fortunately, in 64-bit mode for doubles, gcc already ignores
the 32+32-bit view and generates best accesses in many cases.
my original implementation made both use the same code. Unfortunately,
this meant libm depended on a vendor header at compile time and previously-
unexposed vendor bits in libc at runtime.
Hence, I just wrote my own version of the relevant vendor routine. As it
turns out, mine has a factor of 8 fewer of lines of code, and is a bit more
readable anyway. The strtod() and *scanf() routines still use vendor code.

particular:
SYSCALL() makes a syscall, with errno handling, and continues execution
directly after the macro in the non-error case.
RSYSCALL() is just like SYSCALL(), but returns after success.
Both SYSCALL(name) and RSYSCALL(name) export "__sys_name" as a strong
symbol, with "_name" and "name" as weak aliases.
PSEUDO() is just like RSYSCALL(), but skipping the "name" weak alias. It
still does "__sys_name" and "_name".
Change i386 to add errno handling to PSEUDO. The same for amd64 and
sparc64, with appear to have copied the behavior.
ia64 was correct (as was alpha). Just remove some apparently unused
variants of the macros. (untested!)
I believe powerpc is correct.
Fix arm to not export "name" from the PSEUDO case. Remove apparently
extra unused variants. (untested!)
The errno problem manifested on i386/amd64/sparc64 by having "PSEUDO"
classified syscalls return without setting errno. eg: "addr = mmap()"
could return with "addr" = 22 instead of setting errno to 22 and
returning -1.

to mistakes from day 1, it has always had semantics inconsistent with
SVR4 and its successors. In particular, given argument M:
- On Solaris and FreeBSD/{alpha,sparc64}, it clobbers the old flags
and *sets* the new flag word to M. (NetBSD, too?)
- On FreeBSD/{amd64,i386}, it *clears* the flags that are specified in M
and leaves the remaining flags unchanged (modulo a small bug on amd64.)
- On FreeBSD/ia64, it is not implemented.
There is no way to fix fpsetsticky() to DTRT for both old FreeBSD apps
and apps ported from other operating systems, so the best approach
seems to be to kill the function and fix any apps that break. I
couldn't find any ports that use it, and any such ports would already
be broken on FreeBSD/ia64 and Linux anyway.
By the way, the routine has always been undocumented in FreeBSD,
except for an MLINK to a manpage that doesn't describe it. This
manpage has stated since 5.3-RELEASE that the functions it describes
are deprecated, so that must mean that functions that it is *supposed*
to describe but doesn't are even *more* deprecated. ;-)
Note that fpresetsticky() has been retained on FreeBSD/i386. As far
as I can tell, no other operating systems or ports of FreeBSD
implement it, so there's nothing for it to be inconsistent with.

LDBL_NBIT is 0. This makes it possible to say `mantissa & ~LDBL_NBIT'

The optimizer should dispense with the extra arithmetic when LDBL_NBIT
is 0.
