The ldbl-96 implementation of scalblnl (used for x86_64 and ia64) is
incorrect for subnormal arguments (this is a separate bug from bug
17803, which is about underflowing results). There are two problems
with the adjustments of subnormal arguments: the "two63" variable
multiplied by is actually 0x1p52L not 0x1p63L, so is insufficient to
make values normal, and then GET_LDOUBLE_EXP(es,x), used to extract
the new exponent, extracts it into a variable that isn't used, while
the value taken to by the new exponent is wrongly taken from the high
part of the mantissa before the adjustment (hx). This patch fixes
both those problems and adds appropriate tests.
Tested for x86_64.
[BZ #17834]
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-96/s_scalblnl.c (two63): Change value to
0x1p63L.
(__scalblnl): Get new exponent of adjusted subnormal value from ES
not HX.
* math/libm-test.inc (scalbn_test_data): Add more tests.
(scalbln_test_data): Likewise.
