Testing on mips64 showed missing underflow exceptions (from exp, for
example) in non-default rounding modes, caused by
libc_feresetround*_ctx wrongly restoring a saved environment without
preserving exceptions, when that's only valid for the _noex variants.
(I don't know why Steve didn't see this in his testing.) This patch
fixes this by using libc_feupdateenv_mips_ctx for the relevant macros
and removing the problem definitions.
The problem definitions aren't suitable for the _noex macros either
because they only discard exceptions in non-default rounding modes,
and while for some uses of *_noex/*_NOEX it doesn't matter whether
exceptions are discarded, dbl-64/e_remainder.c requires
SET_RESTORE_ROUND_NOEX to cause exceptions to be discarded. I think
the accumulated set of macros / functions for optimized exception /
rounding mode handling could do with a careful review by now, and
possible refactoring, and at least one new feature (extracting the
saved rounding mode from an environment / context variable - see
dbl-64/e_sqrt.c for a case where this could be used).
Tested mips64.
* sysdeps/mips/math_private.h [__mips_hard_float]
(libc_feresetround_ctx): Define to libc_feupdateenv_mips_ctx not
libc_feresetround_mips_ctx.
[__mips_hard_float] (libc_feresetroundf_ctx): Likewise.
[__mips_hard_float] (libc_feresetroundl_ctx): Likewise.
[__mips_hard_float] (libc_feresetround_mips_ctx): Remove.
This is a patch to the MIPS math_private.h file to define HAVE_RM_CTX and
implement the ctx macros. I also defined a few other macros and inline
functions that I skipped the first time.
I've moved the MIPS port from ports to the main sysdeps hierarchy.
Beyond the README update, the move of the files was simply
git mv ports/sysdeps/mips sysdeps/mips
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/mips sysdeps/unix/mips
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips
and in addition to the ChangeLog entries here, I put a note at the top
of ports/ChangeLog.mips similar to those in other files.
Tested that disassembly of installed shared libraries for mips is the
same before and after this patch (except for ld.so where paths in
assertions are involved, as for arm).
