From 6a85e1a4e5a01dec3b423eb172b3ad9155487e75 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Szabolcs Nagy Date: Wed, 4 Jul 2018 11:09:39 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Change the return type of converttoint and document the semantics The roundtoint and converttoint internal functions are only called with small values, so 32 bit result is enough for converttoint and it is a signed int conversion so the natural return type is int32_t. The original idea was to help the compiler keeping the result in uint64_t, then it's clear that no sign extension is needed and there is no accidental undefined or implementation defined signed int arithmetics. But it turns out gcc does a good job with inlining so changing the type has no overhead and the semantics of the conversion is less surprising this way. Since we want to allow the asuint64 (x + 0x1.8p52) style conversion, the top bits were never usable and the existing code ensures that only the bottom 32 bits of the conversion result are used. In newlib with default settings only aarch64 is affected and there is no significant code generation change with gcc after the patch. --- newlib/libm/common/math_config.h | 10 +++++++++- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/newlib/libm/common/math_config.h b/newlib/libm/common/math_config.h index b46e44e51..d5896bbdd 100644 --- a/newlib/libm/common/math_config.h +++ b/newlib/libm/common/math_config.h @@ -71,15 +71,23 @@ #endif #if HAVE_FAST_ROUND +/* When set, the roundtoint and converttoint functions are provided with + the semantics documented below. */ # define TOINT_INTRINSICS 1 +/* Round x to nearest int in all rounding modes, ties have to be rounded + consistently with converttoint so the results match.
