Fix spurious "inexact" exceptions from __kernel_standard_l (bug 18245, bug 18583).
__kernel_standard_l converts long double arguments to double for use in SVID "struct exception". This has special-case handling for when that conversion would overflow or underflow but the original long double function wouldn't. However, it turns out that "inexact" exceptions can be spurious here as well, when the function is exactly determined and __kernel_standard_l is being called for a domain error. This patch fixes this by using feholdexcept / fesetenv to avoid exceptions from the conversion, replacing the previous special-case logic for overflow and underflow (this covers all functions using __kernel_standard_l, not just those that actually need a change, since there doesn't seem to be much point in restricting things just to the functions that mustn't get "inexact" here). Tested for x86_64 and x86. [BZ #18245] [BZ #18583] * sysdeps/ieee754/k_standardl.c: Include <fenv.h>. (__kernel_standard_l): Use feholdexcept and fesetenv around conversion to double instead of special-casing overflow and underflow. * math/libm-test.inc (fmod_test_data): Add more tests. (remainder_test_data): Likewise. (sqrt_test_data): Likewise.
