this is necessary to support archs where fenv is incomplete or
unavailable (presently arm). fma, fmal, and the lrint family should
work perfectly fine with this change; fmaf is slightly broken with
respect to rounding as it depends on non-default rounding modes to do
its work.
a double precision nan, when converted to extended (80-bit) precision,
will never end in 0x400, since the corresponding bits do not exist in
the original double precision value. thus there's no need to waste
time and code size on this check.
the fsqrt opcode is correctly rounded, but only in the fpu's selected
precision mode, which is 80-bit extended precision. to get a correctly
rounded double precision output, we check for the only corner cases
where two-step rounding could give different results than one-step
(extended-precision mantissa ending in 0x400) and adjust the mantissa
slightly in the opposite direction of the rounding which the fpu
already did (reported in the c1 flag of the fpu status word).
this should have near-zero cost in the non-corner cases and at worst
very low cost.
note that in order for sqrt() to get used when compiling with gcc, the
broken, non-conformant builtin sqrt must be disabled.
other cases with %x were probably broken too.
I would actually like to go ahead and replace this code in scanf with
calls to the new __intparse framework, but for now this calls for a
quick and unobtrusive fix without the risk of breaking other things.
thanks to the hard work of Szabolcs Nagy (nsz), identifying the best
(from correctness and license standpoint) implementations from freebsd
and openbsd and cleaning them up! musl should now fully support c99
float and long double math functions, and has near-complete complex
math support. tgmath should also work (fully on gcc-compatible
compilers, and mostly on any c99 compiler).
based largely on commit 0376d44a890fea261506f1fc63833e7a686dca19 from
nsz's libm git repo, with some additions (dummy versions of a few
missing long double complex functions, etc.) by me.
various cleanups still need to be made, including re-adding (if
they're correct) some asm functions that were dropped.
this is a popular extension some programs depend on, and by using a
temporary buffer and strdup rather than malloc prior to the syscall,
i've avoided the dependency on free and thus minimized the bloat cost
of supporting this feature.
this was discussed on the mailing list and no consensus on the
preferred solution was reached, so in anticipation of a release, i'm
just committing a minimally-invasive solution that avoids the problem
by ensuring that multi-threaded-capable programs will always have
initialized the thread pointer before any signal handler can run.
in the long term we may switch to initializing the thread pointer at
program start time whenever the program has the potential to access
any per-thread data.
in gcc 3, the visibility attribute must be placed on both the
declaration and on the definition. if it's omitted from the
definition, the compiler fails to emit the ".hidden" directive in the
assembly, and the linker will either generate textrels (if supported,
such as on i386) or refuse to link (on targets where certain types of
textrels are forbidden or impossible without further assumptions about
memory layout, such as on x86_64).
this patch also unifies the decision about when to use visibility into
libc.h and makes the visibility in the utf-8 state machine tables
based on libc.h rather than a duplicate test.
even if pthread_create/exit code is not linked, run flag needs to be
checked and cleanup function potentially run on pop. thus, move the
code to the module that's always linked when pthread_cleanup_push/pop
is used.
the old abi was intended to duplicate glibc's abi at the expense of
being ugly and slow, but it turns out glib was not even using that abi
except on non-gcc-compatible compilers (which it doesn't even support)
and was instead using an exceptions-in-c/unwind-based approach whose
abi we could not duplicate anyway without nasty dwarf2/unwind
integration.
the new abi is copied from a very old glibc abi, which seems to still
be supported/present in current glibc. it avoids all unwinding,
whether by sjlj or exceptions, and merely maintains a linked list of
cleanup functions to be called from the context of pthread_exit. i've
made some care to ensure that longjmp out of a cleanup function should
work, even though it is not required to.
this change breaks abi compatibility with programs which were using
pthread cancellation, which is unfortunate, but that's why i'm making
the change now rather than later. considering that most pthread
features have not been usable until recently anyway, i don't see it as
a major issue at this point.
i'm not sure that it's "correct" for dlopen to block cancellation
when calling constructors for libraries it loads, but it sure seems
like the right thing. in any case, dlopen itself needs cancellation
blocked.
