Hello,
there is some ARM-specific libm support for ARMv8:
https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=newlib-cygwin.git;a=tree;f=newlib/libm/machine/arm;h=5457f11619b2d67e8f56f352afb404c06a12c2bb;hb=HEAD
The VFPv2+ supports a VSQRT instruction. Would it make sense to use it
for the sqrt() implementation, similar to
https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=newlib-cygwin.git;a=blob;f=newlib/libm/machine/aarch64/e_sqrt.c;h=e4b7554ac1811bf04f726da198b913c0c30595ca;hb=HEAD
