Remove files in preparation for replacement with totally new versions
of the manual pages.
Update the Makefile to handle the new file to be added.
scalbn() implementation from libm. (The two functions are defined to
be identical, but ldexp() lives in libc for backwards compatibility.)
The old ldexp() implementation...
- was more complicated than this one
- set errno instead of raising FP exceptions
- got some corner cases wrong
(e.g. ldexp(1.0, 2000) in round-to-zero mode)
The new implementation lives in libc/gen instead of
libc/$MACHINE_ARCH/gen, since we don't need N copies of a
machine-independent file. The amd64 and i386 platforms
retain their fast and correct MD implementations and
override this one.
really so.
"If the value of base is 16, the characters 0x or 0X may optionally
precede the sequence of letters and digits, following the sign if
present."

instead use the FPU to convert subnormals to normals. (NB: Further
simplification is possible, such as using the FPU for the rounding
step.)
This fixes a bug reported by stefanf where long double subnormals in
the Intel 80-bit format would be output with one fewer digit than
necessary when the default precision was used.
for libarchive error messages. Mostly, this
avoids a portability headache related to
copying va_list arguments (some FreeBSD 5
platforms require va_copy; FreeBSD 4 doesn't
support va_copy at all). It also dramatically reduces the
size of libarchive for embedded applications:
a minimal "untar" program using libarchive can now be
under 64k statically linked (as opposed to ~100k
using library *printf() functions).
MFC after: 14 days
Eliminate gdtoa.mk and move its contents to ${MACHINE_ARCH}/Makefile.inc.
The purpose of having a separate file involved an abandoned scheme that
would have kept contrib/gdtoa out of the include path for the rest of libc.
flags, so they are not pure. Remove the __pure2 annotation from them.
I believe that the following routines and their float and long double
counterparts are the only ones here that can be __pure2:
copysign is* fabs finite fmax fmin fpclassify ilogb nan signbit
When gcc supports FENV_ACCESS, perhaps there will be a new annotation
that allows the other functions to be considered pure when FENV_ACCESS
is off.
Discussed with: bde
basically support this, subject to gcc's lack of FENV_ACCESS support.
In any case, the previous setting of math_errhandling to 0 is not
allowed by POSIX.
registers as volatile. Instructions that *wrote* to FP state were
already marked volatile, but apparently gcc has license to move
non-volatile asms past volatile asms. This broke amd64's feupdateenv
at -O2 due to a WAR conflict between fnstsw and fldenv there.
