libc.h was intended to be a header for access to global libc state and
related interfaces, but ended up included all over the place because
it was the way to get the weak_alias macro. most of the inclusions
removed here are places where weak_alias was needed. a few were
recently introduced for hidden. some go all the way back to when
libc.h defined CANCELPT_BEGIN and _END, and all (wrongly implemented)
cancellation points had to include it.
remaining spurious users are mostly callers of the LOCK/UNLOCK macros
and files that use the LFS64 macro to define the awful *64 aliases.
in a few places, new inclusion of libc.h is added because several
internal headers no longer implicitly include libc.h.
declarations for __lockfile and __unlockfile are moved from libc.h to
stdio_impl.h so that the latter does not need libc.h. putting them in
libc.h made no sense at all, since the macros in stdio_impl.h are
needed to use them correctly anyway.
this makes significant differences to codegen on archs with an
expensive PLT-calling ABI; on i386 and gcc 7.3 for example, the sin
and sinf functions no longer touch call-saved registers or the stack
except for pushing outgoing arguments. performance is likely improved
too, but no measurements were taken.
since x86 and m68k are the only archs with 80-bit long double and each
has mandatory endianness, select the variant via endianness.
differences are minor: apparently just byte order and representation
of infinities. the m68k format is not well-documented anywhere I could
find, so if other differences are found they may require additional
changes later.
if double precision r=x*y+z is not a half way case between two single
precision floats or it is an exact result then fmaf returns (float)r.
however the exactness check was wrong when |x*y| < |z| and could cause
incorrectly rounded result in nearest rounding mode when r is a half
way case.
fmaf(-0x1.26524ep-54, -0x1.cb7868p+11, 0x1.d10f5ep-29)
was incorrectly rounded up to 0x1.d117ap-29 instead of 0x1.d1179ep-29.
(exact result is 0x1.d1179efffffffecp-29, r is 0x1.d1179fp-29)
the freebsd fma code failed to raise underflow exception in some
cases in nearest rounding mode (affects fmal too) e.g.
fma(-0x1p-1000, 0x1.000001p-74, 0x1p-1022)
and the inexact exception may be raised spuriously since the fenv
is not saved/restored around the exact multiplication algorithm
(affects x86 fma too).
another issue is that the underflow behaviour when the rounded result
is the minimal normal number is target dependent, ieee754 allows two
ways to raise underflow for inexact results: raise if the result before
rounding is in the subnormal range (e.g. aarch64, arm, powerpc) or if
the result after rounding with infinite exponent range is in the
subnormal range (e.g. x86, mips, sh).
to avoid all these issues the algorithm was rewritten with mostly int
arithmetics and float arithmetics is only used to get correct rounding
and raise exceptions according to the behaviour of the target without
any fenv.h dependency. it also unifies x86 and non-x86 fma.
fmaf is not affected, fmal need to be fixed too.
this algorithm depends on a_clz_64 and it required a few spurious
instructions to make sure underflow exception is raised in a particular
corner case. (normally FORCE_EVAL(tiny*tiny) would be used for this,
but on i386 gcc is broken if the expression is constant
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57245
and there is no easy portable fix for the macro.)
while the official elfv2 abi for "powerpc64le" sets power8 as the
baseline isa, we use it for both little and big endian powerpc64
targets and need to maintain compatibility with pre-power8 models. the
instructions for sqrt, fabs, and fma are in the baseline isa; support
for the rest is conditional via predefined isa-level macros.
patch by David Edelsohn.
these were introduced in z196 and not available in the baseline (z900)
ISA level. use __HTM__ as an alternate indicator for ISA level, since
gcc did not define __ARCH__ until 7.x.
patch by David Edelsohn.
in nearest rounding mode scalbn could introduce double rounding error
when an intermediate value and the final result were both in the
subnormal range e.g.
scalbn(0x1.7ffffffffffffp-1, -1073)
returned 0x1p-1073 instead of 0x1p-1074, because the intermediate
computation got rounded to 0x1.8p-1023.
with the fix an intermediate value can only be in the subnormal range
if the final result is 0 which is correct even after double rounding.
(there still can be two roundings so signals may be raised twice, but
that's only observable with trapping exceptions which is not supported.)
this should increase performance and reduce code size on aarch64.
the compiled code was checked against using __builtin_* instead
of inline asm with gcc-6.2.0.
lrint is two instructions.
c with inline asm is used because it is safer than a pure asm
implementation, this prevents ll{rint,round} to be an alias
of l{rint,round} (because the types don't match) and depends
on gcc style inline asm support.
ceil, floor, round, trunc can either raise inexact on finite
non-integer inputs or not raise any exceptions. the new
implementation does not raise exceptions while the generic
c code does.
on aarch64, the underflow exception is signaled before rounding
(ieee 754 allows both before and after rounding, but it must be
consistent), the generic fma c code signals it after rounding
so using single instruction fixes a slight conformance issue too.
partly following freebsd rev 279491
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=279491
(musl had some of the fixes before freebsd).
the change should not matter much for j0f, y0f, but it improves
j1f and y1f in [2.5,~3.75] (that is [0x40200000,~0x40700000]).
near roots (e.g. around 3.8317 for j1f) there are still large
ulp errors.
dropped code that tried to raise inexact.
j is int32_t and thus j<<31 is undefined if j==1, so j is changed to
uint32_t locally as a quick fix, the generated code is not affected.
(this is a strict conformance fix, future c standard may allow 1<<31,
see DR 463. the bug was inherited from freebsd fdlibm, the proper fix
is to use uint32_t for all bit hacks, but that requires more intrusive
changes.)
reported by Daniel Sabogal
there was a copy paste error that could cause large ulp errors
in atan2l, atanl, asinl and acosl on aarch64, mips64 and mipsn32.
(the implementation is from freebsd fdlibm, but the tail end
of the polynomial was wrong. 128 bit long double functions
are not yet tested so this went undetected.)
commit e4355bd6be moved the math asm
from external source files to inline asm, but unfortunately, all
current releases of clang use the wrong inline asm constraint codes
for float and double ("w" and "P" instead of "t" and "w",
respectively). this patch adds detection for the bug in configure,
and, for now, just disables the affected asm on broken clang versions.
in order to take advantage of the fpu in -mfloat-abi=softfp mode, the
__VFP_FP__ (presence of vfp fpu) was checked instead of checking for
__ARM_PCS_VFP (hardfloat EABI variant). however, the latter macro is
the one that's actually specified by the ABI documents rather than
being compiler-specific, and should also be checked in case __VFP_FP__
is not defined on some compilers or some configurations.
this makes it possible to inline them with LTO, and is the simplest
approach to eliminating the use of .sub files.
this also makes VFP sqrt available for use with the standard EABI
(plain arm rather than armhf subarch) when libc is built with
-mfloat-abi=softfp. the same could have been done for fabs, but when
the argument and return value are in integer registers, moving to VFP
registers and back is almost certainly more costly than a simple
integer operation.
a conforming compiler for an arch with excess precision floating point
(FLT_EVAL_METHOD!=0; presently i386 is the only such arch supported)
computes all intermediate results in the types float_t and double_t
rather than the nominal type of the expression. some incorrect
compilers, however, only keep excess precision in registers, and
convert down to the nominal type when spilling intermediate results to
memory, yielding unpredictable results that depend on the compiler's
choices of what/when to spill. in particular, this happens on old gcc
versions with -ffloat-store, which we need in order to work around
bugs where the compiler wrongly keeps explicitly-dropped excess
precision.
by explicitly converting to double_t where expressions are expected be
be evaluated in double_t precision, we can avoid depending on the
compiler to get types correct when spilling; the nominal and
intermediate precision now match. this commit should not change the
code generated by correct compilers, or by old ones on non-i386 archs
where double_t is defined as double.
this fixes a serious bug in argument reduction observed on i386 with
gcc 4.2: for values of x outside the unit circle, sin(x) was producing
results outside the interval [-1,1]. changes made in commit
0ce946cf80 were likely responsible for
breaking compatibility with this and other old gcc versions.
patch by Szabolcs Nagy.
these files are all accepted as legacy arm syntax when producing arm
code, but legacy syntax cannot be used for producing thumb2 with
access to the full ISA. even after switching to UAL, some asm source
files contain instructions which are not valid in thumb mode, so these
will need to be addressed separately.
Some armhf gcc toolchains (built with --with-float=hard but without
--with-fpu=vfp*) do not pass -mfpu=vfp to the assembler and then
binutils rejects the UAL mnemonics for VFP unless there is an .fpu vfp
directive in the asm source.
the implicit-operand form of fucomip is rejected by binutils 2.19 and
perhaps other versions still in use. writing both operands explicitly
fixes the issue. there is no change to the resulting output.
commit a732e80d33 was the source of this
regression.
none of these are actual textrels because of ld-time binding performed
by -Bsymbolic-functions, but I'm changing them with the goal of making
ld-time binding purely an optimization rather than relying on it for
semantic purposes.
in the case of memmove's call to memcpy, making it explicit that the
memmove asm is assuming the forward-copying behavior of the memcpy asm
is desirable anyway; in case memcpy is ever changed, the semantic
mismatch would be apparent while editing memmcpy.s.
This adds complete aarch64 target support including bigendian subarch.
Some of the long double math functions are known to be broken otherwise
interfaces should be fully functional, but at this point consider this
port experimental.
Initial work on this port was done by Sireesh Tripurari and Kevin Bortis.
This is in preparation for the aarch64 port only to have the long
double math symbols available on ld128 platforms. The implementations
should be fixed up later once we have proper tests for these functions.
Added bigendian handling for ld128 bit manipulations too.
fnstsw does not wait for pending unmasked x87 floating-point exceptions
and it is the same as fstsw when all exceptions are masked which is the
only environment libc supports.
Some early x86_64 cpus (released before 2006) did not support sahf/lahf
instructions so they should be avoided (intel manual says they are only
supported if CPUID.80000001H:ECX.LAHF-SAHF[bit 0] = 1).
The workaround simplifies exp2l and expm1l because fucomip can be
used instead of the fucomp;fnstsw;sahf sequence copied from i386.
In fmodl and remainderl sahf is replaced by a simple bit test.
the idiomatic rounding of x is
n = x + toint - toint;
where toint is either 1/EPSILON (x is non-negative) or 1.5/EPSILON
(x may be negative and nearest rounding mode is assumed) and EPSILON is
according to the evaluation precision (the type of toint is not very
important, because single precision float can represent the 1/EPSILON of
ieee binary128).
in case of FLT_EVAL_METHOD!=0 this avoids a useless store to double or
float precision, and the long double code became cleaner with
1/LDBL_EPSILON instead of ifdefs for toint.
__rem_pio2f and __rem_pio2 functions slightly changed semantics:
on i386 a double-rounding is avoided so close to half-way cases may
get evaluated differently eg. as sin(pi/4-eps) instead of cos(pi/4+eps)
The old code used the rounding idiom incorrectly:
y = (double)(x + 0x1p52) - 0x1p52;
the cast is useless if FLT_EVAL_METHOD==0 and causes a second rounding
if FLT_EVAL_METHOD==2 which can give incorrect result in nearest rounding
mode, so the correct idiom is to add/sub a power-of-2 according to the
characteristics of double_t.
This did not cause actual bug because only i386 is affected where rint
is implemented in asm.
Other rounding functions use a similar idiom, but they give correct
results because they only rely on getting a neighboring integer result
and the rounding direction is fixed up separately independently of the
current rounding mode. However they should be fixed to use the idiom
correctly too.
previously the external definitions of these functions were omitted on
archs where long double is the same as double, since the code paths in
the math.h macros which would call them are unreachable. however, even
if they are unreachable, the definitions are still mandatory. omitting
them is invalid C, and in the case of a non-optimizing compiler, will
result in a link error.
__polevll, __p1evll and exp10l were provided on archs when long double
is the same as double. The first two were completely unused and exp10l
can be a wrapper around exp10.
modfl and sincosl were passing long double* instead of double*
to the wrapped double precision functions (on archs where long
double and double have the same size).
This is fixed now by using temporaries (this is not optimized
to a single branch so the generated code is a bit bigger).
Found by Morten Welinder.
- remove the HAVE_EFFICIENT_IRINT case: fn is an exact integer, so
it can be converted to int32_t a bit more efficiently than with a
cast (the rounding mode change can be avoided), but musl does not
support this case on any arch.
- __rem_pio2: use double_t where possible
- __rem_pio2f: use less assignments to avoid stores on i386
- use unsigned int bit manipulation (and union instead of macros)
- use hexfloat literals instead of named constants
* simplify sin_pi(x) (don't care about inexact here, the result is
inexact anyway, and x is not so small to underflow)
* in lgammal add the previously removed special case for x==1 and
x==2 (to fix the sign of zero in downward rounding mode)
* only define lgammal on supported long double platforms
* change tgamma so the generated code is a bit smaller
The log, log2 and log10 functions share a lot of code and to a lesser
extent log1p too. A small part of the code was kept separately in
__log1p.h, but since it did not capture much of the common code and
it was inlined anyway, it did not solve the issue properly. Now the
log functions have significant code duplication, which may be resolved
later, until then they need to be modified together.
logl, log10l, log2l, log1pl:
* Fix the sign when the return value should be -inf.
* Remove the volatile hack from log10l (seems unnecessary)
log1p, log1pf:
* Change the handling of small inputs: only |x|<2^-53 is special
(then it is enough to return x with the usual subnormal handling)
this fixes the sign of log1p(0) in downward rounding.
* Do not handle the k==0 case specially (other than skipping the
elaborate argument reduction)
* Do not handle 1+x close to power-of-two specially (this code was
used rarely, did not give much speed up and the precision wasn't
better than the general)
* Fix the correction term formula (c=1-(u-x) was used incorrectly
when x<1 but (double)(x+1)==2, this was not a critical issue)
* Use the exact same method for calculating log(1+f) as in log
(except in log1p the c correction term is added to the result).
log, logf, log10, log10f, log2, log2f:
* Use double_t and float_t consistently.
* Now the first part of log10 and log2 is identical to log (until the
return statement, hopefully this makes maintainence easier).
* Most special case formulas were removed (close to power-of-two and
k==0 cases), they increase the code size without providing precision
or performance benefits (and obfuscate the code).
Only x==1 is handled specially so in downward rounding mode the
sign of zero is correct (the general formula happens to give -0).
* For x==0 instead of -1/0.0 or -two54/0.0, return -1/(x*x) to force
raising the exception at runtime.
* Arg reduction code is changed (slightly simplified)
* The thresholds for arg reduction to [sqrt(2)/2,sqrt(2)] are now
consistently the [0x3fe6a09e00000000,0x3ff6a09dffffffff] and the
[0x3f3504f3,0x3fb504f2] intervals for double and float reductions
respectively (the exact threshold values are not critical)
* Remove the obsolete comment for the FLT_EVAL_METHOD!=0 case in log2f
(The same code is used for all eval methods now, on i386 slightly
simpler code could be used, but we have asm there anyway)
all:
* Fix signed int arithmetics (using unsigned for bitmanipulation)
* Fix various comments
