freebsd kernel with SKQ

The threshold for not being tiny was too small. Use the usual 2**-12 threshold. As for sinhf, use a different method (now the same as for sinhf) to set the inexact flag for tiny nonzero x so that the larger threshold works, although this method is imperfect. As for sinhf, this change is not just an optimization, since the general code that we fell into has accuracy problems even for tiny x. On amd64, avoiding it fixes tanhf on 2*13495596 args with errors of between 1 and 1.3 ulps and thus reduces the total number of args with errors of >= 1 ulp from 37533748 to 5271278; the maximum error is unchanged at 2.2 ulps. The magic number 22 is log(DBL_MAX)/2 plus slop. This is bogus for float precision. Use 9 (log(FLT_MAX)/2 plus less slop than for double precision). Unlike for coshf and tanhf, this is just an optimization, and MAX isn't misspelled EPSILON in the commit log. I started testing with nonstandard rounding modes, and verified that the chosen thresholds work for all modes modulo problems not related to thresholds. The best thresholds are not very dependent on the mode, at least for tanhf. |

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
