Fix powerpc round, roundf spurious "inexact" (bug 19238).
The powerpc hard-float round and roundf functions, both 32-bit and 64-bit, raise spurious "inexact" exceptions for integer arguments from adding 0.5 and rounding to integer toward zero. Since these functions already save and restore the rounding mode, it's natural to make them restore the full floating-point state instead to fix this bug, which this patch does. The save of the state is moved after the first floating-point operation on the input so that any "invalid" exceptions from signaling NaN inputs are properly preserved. As a consequence of this approach to the fix, "inexact" for noninteger arguments (disallowed by TS 18661-1 but not by C99/C11, see bug 15479) is also avoided for these implementations; this is *not* a general fix for bug 15479 since plenty of other implementations of various functions still raise spurious "inexact" for noninteger arguments. This issue and fix do not apply to builds using power5+ versions of round and roundf, which use the frin instruction and avoid "inexact" exceptions that way. This patch should get hard-float powerpc32 and powerpc64 (default function implementations) back to a state where test-float and test-double will pass after ulps regeneration. Tested for powerpc32 and powerpc64. [BZ #15479] [BZ #19238] * sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/fpu/s_round.S (__round): Save floating-point state after first operation on input. Restore full state rather than just rounding mode. * sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/fpu/s_roundf.S (__roundf): Likewise. * sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/fpu/s_round.S (__round): Likewise. * sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/fpu/s_roundf.S (__roundf): Likewise.

This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library. See the file "version.h" for what release version you have. The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems, and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system. It provides the system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system. In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications. In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers. The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu. The current GNU/Hurd support requires out-of-tree patches that will eventually be incorporated into an official GNU C Library release. When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library requires Linux kernel version 2.6.32 or later. Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be installed for the pthread library to work correctly. The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels: aarch64*-*-linux-gnu alpha*-*-linux-gnu arm-*-linux-gnueabi hppa-*-linux-gnu Not currently functional without patches. i[4567]86-*-linux-gnu x86_64-*-linux-gnu Can build either x86_64 or x32 ia64-*-linux-gnu m68k-*-linux-gnu microblaze*-*-linux-gnu mips-*-linux-gnu mips64-*-linux-gnu powerpc-*-linux-gnu Hardware or software floating point, BE only. powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu Big-endian and little-endian. s390-*-linux-gnu s390x-*-linux-gnu sh[34]-*-linux-gnu sparc*-*-linux-gnu sparc64*-*-linux-gnu tilegx-*-linux-gnu tilepro-*-linux-gnu If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc maintainers; see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more information. See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install the GNU C Library. You might also consider reading the WWW pages for the C library at http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/. The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual found in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. For corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component, following the bug-reporting instructions below. Please be sure to check the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has already been corrected. Please see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting information. We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports. This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly. The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require these additional notices to be distributed. License copyright years may be listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed individually.
