Some instructions allow to suppress IEEE inexact exceptions.
z14 PoP, 9-23, "Suppression of Certain IEEE Exceptions"
IEEE-inexact-exception control (XxC): Bit 1 of
the M4 field is the XxC bit. If XxC is zero, recogni-
tion of IEEE-inexact exception is not suppressed;
if XxC is one, recognition of IEEE-inexact excep-
tion is suppressed.
Especially, handling for overflow/unerflow remains as is, inexact is
reported along
z14 PoP, 9-23, "Suppression of Certain IEEE Exceptions"
For example, the IEEE-inexact-exception control (XxC)
has no effect on the DXC; that is, the DXC for IEEE-
overflow or IEEE-underflow exceptions along with the
detail for exact, inexact and truncated, or inexact and
incremented, is reported according to the actual con-
dition.
Follow up patches will wire it correctly up for the applicable
instructions.
