documented naming scheme (unfortunately the documentation isn't in the
tree as far as I can tell); no repocopy is required as there is no
history to preserve.
- replace simple and almost-correct implementation with slightly hackish
but definitely correct implementation (tested on i386, alpha, sparc64)
which requires pulling in fpmath.h and the MD _fpmath.h from libc.
- try not to make a mess of the Makefile in the process.
- enterprising minds are encouraged to implement more C99 long double
functions.
binaries in /bin and /sbin installed in /lib. Only the versioned files
reside in /lib, the .so symlink continues to live /usr/lib so the
toolchain doesn't need to be modified.
do not also provide a __generic_XXX version as well. This is how we
used to runtime select the generic vs i387 versions on the i386 platform.
This saves a pile of #defines in the src/math_private.h file to undo the
__generic_XXX renames in some of the *.c files.
fp emulator, stop doing the runtime selection of hardware or emulated
floating point operations on i386. Note that I have not suppressed the
duplicate compiles yet.
While here, fix the alpha. It has provided specific copysign/copysignf
functions since the beginning of time, but they have never been used.
via INCS. Implemented INCSLINKS (equivalent to SYMLINKS) to
handle symlinking include files. Allow for multiple groups of
include files to be installed, with the powerful INCSGROUPS knob.
Documentation to follow.
Added standard `includes' and `incsinstall' targets, use them
in Makefile.inc1. Headers from the following makefiles were
not installed before (during `includes' in Makefile.inc1):
kerberos5/lib/libtelnet/Makefile
lib/libbz2/Makefile
lib/libdevinfo/Makefile
lib/libform/Makefile
lib/libisc/Makefile
lib/libmenu/Makefile
lib/libmilter/Makefile
lib/libpanel/Makefile
Replaced all `beforeinstall' targets for installing includes
with the INCS stuff.
Renamed INCDIR to INCSDIR, for consistency with FILES and SCRIPTS,
and for compatibility with NetBSD. Similarly for INCOWN, INCGRP,
and INCMODE.
Consistently use INCLUDEDIR instead of /usr/include.
gnu/lib/libstdc++/Makefile and gnu/lib/libsupc++/Makefile changes
were only lightly tested due to the missing contrib/libstdc++-v3.
I fully tested the pre-WIP_GCC31 version of this patch with the
contrib/libstdc++.295 stuff.
These changes have been tested on i386 with the -DNO_WERROR "make
world" and "make release".
#include <ieeefp.h>
to access these functions instead of the i386 specific
#include <machine/floatingpoint.h>

at runtime.
etc/make.conf:
Nuked HAVE_FPU option.
lib/msun/Makefile:
Always build the i387 objects. Copy the i387 source files at build
time so that the i387 objects have different names. This is simpler
than renaming the files in the cvs repository or repeating half of
bsd.lib.mk to add explicit rules.
lib/msun/src/*.c:
Renamed all functions that have an i387-specific version by adding
`__generic_' to their names.
lib/msun/src/get_hw_float.c:
New file for getting machdep.hw_float from the kernel.
sys/i386/include/asmacros.h:
Abuse the ENTRY() macro to generate jump vectors and associated code.
This works much like PIC PLT dynamic initialization. The PIC case is
messy. The old i387 entry points are renamed. Renaming is easier
here because the names are given by macro expansions.
This defeats the point of log1p(). ucbtest reports errors of +-5e+15
ULPs. A correct version would use the i387 fyl2xp1 instruction for
small x and maybe scale to small x. The C version does the scaling
reasonably efficiently, and fyl2px1 is slow (at least on P5s), so not
much is lost by always using the C version (only 25% for small x even
with the broken i387 version; 50% for large x).
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
Also corrected a few minor formatting errors, file location and cross
references in some of the section 3 man pages.
This shuts up a lot of the output from "manck" for section 3.
-- Begin comments from J.T. Conklin:
The most significant improvement is the addition of "float" versions
of the math functions that take float arguments, return floats, and do
all operations in floating point. This doesn't help (performance)
much on the i386, but they are still nice to have.
The float versions were orginally done by Cygnus' Ian Taylor when
fdlibm was integrated into the libm we support for embedded systems.
I gave Ian a copy of my libm as a starting point since I had already
fixed a lot of bugs & problems in Sun's original code. After he was
done, I cleaned it up a bit and integrated the changes back into my
libm.
