Fix ldbl-96, ldbl-128ibm atanhl inaccuracy (bug 18046, bug 18047).
The threshold in ldbl-96 atanhl for when to return the argument, 0x1p-28, is a bit too big, and that in ldbl-128ibm atanhl is much too big (the relevant condition being x^3/3 being < 0.5ulp of x), resulting in errors a bit above the limits of those considered acceptable in glibc in the ldbl-96 case, and in large errors in the ldbl-128ibm case. This patch changes those implementations to use more appropriate thresholds and adds tests around the thresholds for various formats. Tested for x86_64, x86 and powerpc. x86_64 and x86 ulps updated accordingly. [BZ #18046] [BZ #18047] * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_atanhl.c (__ieee754_atanhl): Use 0x1p-56L as threshold for just returning the argument. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-96/e_atanhl.c (__ieee754_atanhl): Use 0x1p-32L as threshold for just returning the argument. * math/auto-libm-test-in: Add more tests of atanh. * math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated. * sysdeps/i386/fpu/libm-test-ulps: Update. * sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/libm-test-ulp: Likewise.
