2014-05-05PowerPC: ifunc improvement for internal callsAdhemerval Zanella
This patch changes de default symbol redirection for internal call of memcpy, memset, memchr, and strlen to the IFUNC resolved ones. The performance improvement is noticeable in algorithms that uses these symbols extensible, like the regex functions.

2014-04-29PowerPC: Suppress unnecessary FPSCR writeAdhemerval Zanella
This patch optimizes the FPSCR update on exception and rounding change functions by just updating its value if new value if different from current one. It also optimizes fedisableexcept and feenableexcept by removing an unecessary FPSCR read.
2014-04-17PowerPC: Add fenv macros for long doubleAdhemerval Zanella
This patch add the missing libc_<function>l_ctx macros for long double. Similar for float, they point to default double versions.
2014-04-09PowerPC: Fix --disable-multi-arch buildsAdhemerval Zanella
This patch fixes some powerpc32 and powerpc64 builds with --disable-multi-arch option along with different --with-cpu=powerN. It cleanups the Implies directories by removing the multiarch folder for non multiarch config and also fixing two assembly implementations: powerpc64/power7/strncat.S that is calling the wrong strlen; and power8/fpu/s_isnan.S that misses the hidden_def and weak_alias directives.
2014-04-06PowerPC: Fix nearbyint/nearbyintf result for FE_DOWNWARDAdhemerval Zanella
This patch fixes the powerpc32 optimized nearbyint/nearbyintf bogus results for FE_DOWNWARD rounding mode. This is due wrong instructions sequence used in the rounding calculation (two subtractions instead of adition and a subtraction). Fixes BZ#16815.

2014-03-20PowerPC: optimized strpbrk for POWER7Adhemerval Zanella
This patch add an optimized strpbrk for POWER7 by using a different algorithm than default implementation: it constructs a table based on the 'accept' argument and use this table to check for any occurance on the input string. The idea is similar as x86_64 uses. For PowerPC some tunings were added, such as unroll loops and memory clear using VSX instructions.
2014-03-20PowerPC: optimized strcspn for PPC64/POWER7Adhemerval Zanella
This patch add a optimized strcspn for POWER7 by using a different algorithm than default implementation: it constructs a table based on the 'accept' argument and use this table to check for any occurance on the input string. The idea is similar as x86_64 uses. For PowerPC some tunings were added, such as unroll loops and align stack memory to table to 16 bytes (so VSX clean can ran without alignment issues).
2014-03-14PowerPC: remove wrong roundl implementation for PowerPC64Adhemerval Zanella
The roundl assembly implementation (sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/fpu/s_roundl.S) returns wrong results for some inputs where first double is a exact integer and the precision is determined by second long double. Checking on implementation comments and history, I am very confident the assembly implementation was based on a version before commit 5c68d401698a58cf7da150d9cce769fa6679ba5f that fixes BZ#2423 (Errors in long double (ldbl-128ibm) rounding functions in glibc-2.4). By just removing the implementation and make the build select sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_roundl.c instead fixes the failing math. This fixes 16707.
2014-03-14PowerPC: remove wrong nearbyintl implementation for PPC64Adhemerval Zanella
The nearbyintl assembly implementation (sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/fpu/s_nearbyintl.S) returns wrong results for some inputs where first double is a exact integer and the precision is determined by second long double.

The ceill assembly implementation (sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/fpu/s_ceill.S) returns wrong results for some inputs where first double is a exact integer and the precision is determined by second long double. Checking on implementation comments and history, I am very confident the assembly implementation was based on a version before commit 5c68d401698a58cf7da150d9cce769fa6679ba5f that fixes BZ#2423 (Errors in long double (ldbl-128ibm) rounding functions in glibc-2.4).

2014-03-12PowerPC: Fix bzero definition for static libc for PPC32Adhemerval Zanella
This patch fixes an issue for powerpc32-fpu static build which fails with an 'bzero' undefined reference. This patch adds bzero ifunc selector for static builds and fixes the '__bzero_ppc' reference to default memset symbol (since static memset build does not provide ifunc selector). Fixes BZ#16689.

2014-03-11PowerPC: Fix bzero definition for static libc for PPC64Adhemerval Zanella
This patch fixes an issue for powerpc64[le] static build where __bzero is definied in multiple places (memset-ppc64.o and bzero.o). It is now defined only in bzero.o and memset-ppc64.o only defined __bzero_ppc for both dynamic and static library. Fixes BZ#16683.
2014-03-11PowerPC: strspn optimization for PPC64/POWER7Vidya Ranganathan
The optimization is achieved by following techniques: > hashing of needle. > hashing avoids scanning of duplicate entries in needle across the string. > initializing the hash table with Vector instructions (VSX) by quadword access. > unrolling when scanning for character in string across hash table.
2014-03-10PowerPC: strncat optimization for PPC64Adhemerval Zanella
The optimization is achieved by following techniques: 1. Doubleword aligned memory access and compares using cmpb instruction. 2. Loop unrolling for byte load/store. 3. CPU pre-fetch to avoid cache miss.

It fixes the libm testsuite tests modf_downward (0) == 0.00000000000000000000e+00 modf_downward (20) == 0.00000000000000000000e+00 modf_downward (21) == 0.00000000000000000000e+00 Where the sign returned was negative.
2014-03-05Don't include individual test ulps in libm-test-ulps.Joseph Myers
As recently discussed <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-02/msg00670.html>, it doesn't seem particularly useful for libm-test-ulps files to contain huge amounts of data on ulps for individual tests; just the global maximum observed ulps for each function, together with the verification of exceptions, errno and special results such as infinities and NaNs for each test, suffices to verify that a function's behavior on the given test inputs is within the expected accuracy. Removing this data reduces source tree churn caused by updates to these files when libm tests are added, and reduces the frequency with which testsuite additions actually need libm-test-ulps changes at all. Accordingly, this patch removes that data, so that individual tests get checked against the global bounds for the given function and only generate an error if those are exceeded. Tested x86_64 (including verifying that if an ulps value is artificially reduced, the tests do indeed fail as they should and "make regen-ulps" generates the expected changes). * math/libm-test.inc (struct ulp_data): Don't refer to ulps for individual tests in comment.

2014-02-21Allow sys/auxv.h to be used from the testsuite on powerpc and sparc.Adam Conrad
elf/tst-auxv.c includes misc/sys/auxv.h, which ends up not actually being included due to the guard overlap, and getauxval becomes an implicit declaration and implicit pointer conversion which means, at best, the test isn't actually testing what it thinks it is and, at worst, it'll crash and burn on platforms where implict pointer conversion is a Very Bad Thing. * sysdeps/powerpc/bits/hwcap.h: Allow _SYSDEPS_SYSDEP_H guard as a synonym for _SYS_AUXV_H to allow direct inclusion. * sysdeps/sparc/bits/hwcap.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/powerpc/sysdep.h: Define _SYSDEPS_SYSDEP_H instead of _SYS_AUXV_H so we can include sysdep.h and sys/auxv.h together. * sysdeps/sparc/sysdep.h: Likewise.
2014-02-12soft-fp: support after-rounding tininess detection.Joseph Myers
IEEE 754-2008 defines two ways in which tiny results can be detected, "before rounding" (based on the infinite-precision result) and "after rounding" (based on the result when rounded to normal precision as if the exponent range were unbounded). All binary operations on an architecture must use the same choice of how tininess is detected. soft-fp has so far implemented only before-rounding tininess detection. This patch adds support for after-rounding tininess detection. A new macro _FP_TININESS_AFTER_ROUNDING is added that sfp-machine.h must define (soft-fp is meant to be self-contained so the existing tininess.h files aren't used here, though the information going in sfp-machine.h has been taken from them). The soft-fp macros dealing with raising underflow exceptions then handle the cases where the choice matters specially, rounding a copy of the input to the appropriate precision to see if a value that's tiny before rounding isn't tiny after rounding. Tested for mips64 using GCC trunk (which now uses soft-fp on MIPS, so supporting exceptions and rounding modes for long double where not previously supported - this is the immediate motivation for doing this patch now) together with (a) a patch to sysdeps/mips/math-tests.h to enable exceptions / rounding modes tests for long double for GCC 4.9 and later, and (b) corresponding changes applied to libgcc's soft-fp and sfp-machine.h files. In the libgcc context this is also tested on x86_64 (also an after-rounding architecture) with testcases for __float128 that I intend to add to the GCC testsuite when updating soft-fp there. (To be clear: this patch does not fix any glibc bugs that were user-visible in past releases, since after-rounding architectures didn't use soft-fp in any affected case with support for floating-point exceptions - so there is no corresponding Bugzilla bug. Rather, it works together with the GCC changes to use soft-fp on MIPS to allow previously absent long double functionality to work properly, and allows soft-fp to be used in glibc on after-rounding architectures in cases where it couldn't previously be used.) * soft-fp/op-common.h (_FP_DECL): Mark exponent as possibly unused. (_FP_PACK_SEMIRAW): Determine tininess based on rounding shifted value if _FP_TININESS_AFTER_ROUNDING and unrounded value is in subnormal range. (_FP_PACK_CANONICAL): Determine tininess based on rounding to normal precision if _FP_TININESS_AFTER_ROUNDING and unrounded value has largest subnormal exponent. * soft-fp/soft-fp.h [FP_NO_EXCEPTIONS] (_FP_TININESS_AFTER_ROUNDING): Undefine and redefine to 0. * sysdeps/aarch64/soft-fp/sfp-machine.h (_FP_TININESS_AFTER_ROUNDING): New macro. * sysdeps/alpha/soft-fp/sfp-machine.h (_FP_TININESS_AFTER_ROUNDING): Likewise. * sysdeps/arm/soft-fp/sfp-machine.h (_FP_TININESS_AFTER_ROUNDING): Likewise. * sysdeps/mips/mips64/soft-fp/sfp-machine.h (_FP_TININESS_AFTER_ROUNDING): Likewise. * sysdeps/mips/soft-fp/sfp-machine.h (_FP_TININESS_AFTER_ROUNDING): Likewise. * sysdeps/powerpc/soft-fp/sfp-machine.h (_FP_TININESS_AFTER_ROUNDING): Likewise. * sysdeps/sh/soft-fp/sfp-machine.h (_FP_TININESS_AFTER_ROUNDING): Likewise. * sysdeps/sparc/sparc32/soft-fp/sfp-machine.h (_FP_TININESS_AFTER_ROUNDING): Likewise. * sysdeps/sparc/sparc64/soft-fp/sfp-machine.h (_FP_TININESS_AFTER_ROUNDING): Likewise. * sysdeps/tile/sfp-machine.h (_FP_TININESS_AFTER_ROUNDING): Likewise.

2014-01-08PowerPC: remove wrong truncl implementation for PowerPC64Adhemerval Zanella
The truncl assembly implementation (sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/fpu/s_truncl.S) returns wrong results for some inputs where first double is a exact integer and the precision is determined by second long double. Checking on implementation comments and history, I am very confident the assembly implementation was based on a version before commit 5c68d401698a58cf7da150d9cce769fa6679ba5f that fixes BZ#2423 (Errors in long double (ldbl-128ibm) rounding functions in glibc-2.4). By just removing the implementation and make the build select sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_truncl.c instead it fixes tgammal issues regarding wrong result sign.

This patch fixes bug 16390, incorrect signs of zero results from ldbl-128ibm atan2l, soft-float only. The problem is a longstanding GCC bug with fabsl not being correct for signed zero for soft float, and the fix is using -fno-builtin-fabsl as a workaround, as already done for various other source files. Tested powerpc-nofpu. * sysdeps/powerpc/nofpu/Makefile [$(subdir) = math] (CFLAGS-e_atan2l.c): Use -fno-builtin-fabsl.

2013-12-19Don't make soft-fp symbols compat symbols for powerpc-nofpu.Joseph Myers
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/libgcc-compat.S makes certain symbols that glibc once accidentally reexported from libgcc into compat symbols. Where the exports were purely accidental, this is the right thing to do. However, for powerpc-nofpu the soft-fp symbols are deliberately exported from libc, given public versions in sysdeps/powerpc/nofpu/Versions and used by libm in preference to the libgcc versions that do not support the software exceptions and rounding modes. The libc versions should also be usable by user programs, though normally libgcc gets linked in first (meaning, effectively, that the <fenv.h> functions are broken as regards their expected effects on user arithmetic). A longstanding todo item is to remove the functions in question from libgcc (when built with recent enough glibc) - that is, remove them from static libgcc and make them compat symbols in shared libgcc - so that this works properly (this is one of the items mentioned at <http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Software_floating_point> - parts of that page are obviously out of date, but this item still applies). Doing this requires first that the functions are actually available from libc for new links, not just as compat symbols. This patch stops the symbols in question being compat symbols for powerpc-nofpu. The nofpu Versions entries for them are removed (the symbols never were exported at GLIBC_2.3.2, only GLIBC_2.0, because the compat symbols took precedence). Tested powerpc-nofpu. The symbols are no longer compat symbols and libm.so now properly gets undefined references to them (resolved to libc.so) instead of the libgcc copies getting linked into libm as before. * sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/libgcc-compat.S [_SOFT_FLOAT || __NO_FPRS__] (__fixdfdi_v_glibc20): Do not define as a macro and a compat symbol.
