This change arranges to provide the vxworks alternate stdint.h
at build time instead of at install time, so it is used instead
of the system one while building the libraries.
This is a lot more consistent and helps the build on configurations
where the system does not come with stdint.h at all.
The change uses a similar mechanism as the one previsouly introduced
for glimits.h and takes the opportunity to simplify the glimits.h
command to use an automatic variable.
This introduces an indirect dependency on the VxWorks version.h
for vxcrtstuff objects, for which we then need to apply the same
tricks as for libgcc2 regarding include paths (to select the system
header instead of the gcc one).

In order to reslve a long-standing issue with inter-operation
with libSystem, we have bumped the SO name for libgcc_s.
Distributions might wish to install this new version into a
structure where exisiting code is already linked with the
compiler-local libgcc_s.1 (providing symbols exported by the
now-retired libgcc_ext.10.x shims).
The replacement libgcc_s.1 forwards the symbols from the new SO.
In order to support DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH on systems (where it works)
we forward the libSystem unwinder symbols from 10.7+ and a
compiler-local version of the libgcc unwinder on earlier.
For macOS 10.4 to 10.6 this is 'bug-compatible' with existing uses.
For 10.7+ the behaviour will now actually be correct.
This should be squashed with the initial libgcc changes for PR80556
in any backport (r12-5418-gd4943ce939d)

This is the original binutils bugzilla report,
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28509
And this is the first version of the proposed binutils patch,
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2021-November/118398.html
After applying the binutils patch, I get the the unexpected error when
building libgcc,
/scratch/nelsonc/riscv-gnu-toolchain/riscv-gcc/libgcc/config/riscv/div.S:42:
/scratch/nelsonc/build-upstream/rv64gc-linux/build-install/riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: relocation R_RISCV_JAL against `__udivdi3' which may bind externally can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
Therefore, this patch add an extra hidden alias symbol for __udivdi3, and
then use HIDDEN_JUMPTARGET to target a non-preemptible symbol instead.
The solution is similar to glibc as follows,
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commit;h=68389203832ab39dd0dbaabbc4059e7fff51c29b
libgcc/ChangeLog:
* config/riscv/div.S: Add the hidden alias symbol for __udivdi3, and
then use HIDDEN_JUMPTARGET to target it since it is non-preemptible.
* config/riscv/riscv-asm.h: Added new macros HIDDEN_JUMPTARGET and
HIDDEN_DEF.

When vxcrtstuff.c was created, the set of #includes was copied from
crtstuff.c. But crtstuff.c also has a bunch of #undefs after the first
#include, because, as the comment says, including auto-host.h when
building objects that are meant for target is technically not
correct.
This manifests when I try do do a canadian cross, with build=linux,
host=windows and target=vxworks, in that we pick up a
#define caddr_t char *
from auto-host.h, which then of course creates a problem when we later
include a target header that has
typedef char * caddr_t;
I assume that the #undefs in crtstuff.c have been added for similar
reasons.
These potentially problematic #defines all seem to be guarded by
#ifndef USED_FOR_TARGET, which tconfig.h defines before including
auto-host.h. So at first, it seems that one could avoid the problem
by simply removing the initial include of auto-host.h. Unfortunately,
we do need some of the things defined in auto-host.h within such an
ifndef USED_FOR_TARGET, namely the define of
HAVE_INITFINI_ARRAY_SUPPORT, which is what later causes
initfini-array.h to define USE_INITFINI_ARRAY. So as the next best
fix, just copy the #undefs from crtstuff.c.
libgcc/
* config/vxcrtstuff.c: Undefine caddr_t, pid_t, rlim_t,
ssize_t and vfork after including auto-host.h.

This addresses a long-standing problem where a work-around for an unwinder
issue (also a regression) regresses other functionality. The patch replaces
several work-arounds with a fix for PR80556 and a work-around for PR88590.
* The fix for PR80556 requires a bump to the SO name for libgcc_s, since we
need to remove the unwinder symbols from it. This would trigger PR88590
hence the work-around for that.
* We weaken the symbols for emulated TLS support so that it is possible
for a DSO linked with static-libgcc to interoperate with a DSO linked with
libgcc_s. Likewise main exes.
* We remove all the gcc-4.2.1 era stubs machinery and workarounds.
* libgcc is always now linked ahead of libc, which avoids fails where the
libc (libSystem) builtins implementations are not up to date.
* The unwinder now always comes from the system
- for Darwin9 from /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib
- for Darwin10 from /usr/lib/libSystem.dylib
- for Darwin11+ from /usr/lib/system/libunwind.dylib.
We still insert a shim on Darwin10 to fix an omitted unwind function, but
the underlying unwinder remains the system one.
* The work-around for PR88590 has two parts (1) we always link libgcc from
its convenience lib on affected system versions (avoiding the need to find
the DSO path); (2) we add and export the emutls functions from DSOs - this
makes a relatively small (20k) addition to a DSO. These can be backed out
when a proper fix for PR88590 is committed.
For distributions that wish to install a libgcc_s.1.dylib to satisfy linkage
from exes that linked against the stubs can use a reexported libgcc_s.1.1
(since that contains all the symbols that were previously exported via the
stubs).

At the end of the backtrace stream _Unwind_Find_FDE() may not be able
to find the frame unwind info and will later call the backtrace fallback
instead of finishing. This occurs when using an old libc on ppc64 due to
dl_iterate_phdr() not being able to set the fde in the last trace.
When this occurs the cfa of the trace will be behind of context's cfa.
Also, libgo’s probestackmaps() calls the backtrace with a null pointer
and can get to the backchain fallback with the same problem, in this case
we are only interested in find a stack map, we don't need nor can do a
backchain.
_Unwind_ForcedUnwind_Phase2() can hit the same issue as it uses
uw_frame_state_for(), so we need to treat _URC_NORMAL_STOP.

This change implements TI mode on PA64. Various new patterns are
added to pa.md. The libgcc build needed modification to build both
DI and TI routines. We also need various softfp routines to
convert to and from TImode.
I added full softfp for the -msoft-float option. At the moment,
this doesn't completely eliminate all use of the floating-point
co-processor. For this, libgcc needs to be built with -msoft-mult.
The floating-point exception support also needs a soft option.

Darwin does not support strong symbol aliases and a work-
around is provided in sfp-machine.h where a second function
is created that simply calls the original. However this
needs the arguments to the synthesized function to track
the mode of the original function.
So the fix here is to match known floating point modes from
the incoming function and apply the one found to the new
function args.
The matching is highly specific to the current set of modes
and will need adjusting should more cases be added.

Quoting from https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc/2021-July/236716.html:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
It was pointed out to me off-list that config/aarch64/value-unwind.h
is missing the runtime exception. It looks like a few other files
are too; a fuller list is:
libgcc/config/aarch64/value-unwind.h
libgcc/config/frv/frv-abi.h
libgcc/config/i386/value-unwind.h
libgcc/config/pa/pa64-hpux-lib.h
Certainly for the aarch64 file this was simply a mistake;
it seems to have been copied from the i386 version, both of which
reference the runtime exception but don't actually include it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Similarly, frv-abi.h referenced the exception but didn't include it.
pa64-hpux-lib.h was missing any reference to the exception.
The decision was that this was simply a mistake
[https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc/2021-July/236717.html]:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
[…] It generally is
considered a textual omission. The runtime library components of GCC
are intended to be licensed under the runtime exception, which was
granted and approved at the time of introduction.

When building gcc with some specific LDFLAGS_FOR_TARGET, e.g.
LDFLAGS_FOR_TARGET=-Wl,-z,relro,-z,now
those flags propagate info linking of target shared libraries,
e.g. lib{ubsan,tsan,stdc++,quadmath,objc,lsan,itm,gphobos,gdruntime,gomp,go,gfortran,atomic,asan}.so.*
but there is one important exception, libgcc_s.so.* linking ignores it.
The following patch fixes that.
Bootstrapped/regtested on x86_64-linux with LDFLAGS_FOR_TARGET=-Wl,-z,relro,-z,now
and verified that libgcc_s.so.* is BIND_NOW when it previously wasn't, and
without any LDFLAGS_FOR_TARGET on x86_64-linux and i686-linux.
There on x86_64-linux I've verified that the libgcc_s.so.1 linking command
line for -m64 is identical except for whitespace to one without the patch,
and for -m32 multilib $(LDFLAGS) actually do supply there an extra -m32
that also repeats later in the @multilib_flags@, which should be harmless.

Compiling gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/split-*.c and others with -mcpu=power10
and linking with a non-pcrel libgcc results in crashes due to the
power10 pcrel code not having r2 set for the generic-morestack.c
functions called from __morestack. There is also a problem when
non-pcrel code calls a pcrel libgcc. See the patch comments.
A similar situation theoretically occurs with ELFv1 multi-toc
executables, when __morestack might be located in a different toc
group to its caller. This patch makes no attempt to fix that, since
the gold linker does not support multi-toc (gold is needed for proper
support of -fsplit-stack code) nor does gcc emit __morestack calls
that support multi-toc.

This patch enables support for TImode for AMD GCN, the lack of which
is currently causing a number of test failures for the target and which
is also needed to support "omp_depend_kind" for OpenMP 5.0, since that
is implemented as a 128-bit integer.
Several libgcc support routines are built by default for the "word size"
of a machine, and also for "2 * word size" of the machine. The libgcc
build for AMD GCN is changed so that it builds for a "word size" of 64
bits, in order to better match the (64-bit) host compiler. However it
isn't really true that we have 64-bit words -- GCN has 32-bit registers,
so changing UNITS_PER_WORD unconditionally would be the wrong thing to do.
Changing this setting for libgcc (only) means that support routines
are built for "single word" operations that are DImode (64 bits), and
those for "double word" operations are built for TImode (128 bits).
That leaves some gaps regarding previous operations that were built
for a "single word" size of 32 bits and a "double word" size of 64 bits
(generic code doesn't cover both alternatives for all operations that
might be needed). Those gaps are filled in by this patch, or by the
preceding patches in the series.

The recent float128 ISA3.1 support (r12-1340) has some typos,
it makes the libgcc build fail if it's with one binutils
(assembler) which doesn't support Power10 insns. The error
looks like:
Error: invalid switch -mpower10
Error: unrecognized option -mpower10
... [...libgcc/shared-object.mk:14: float128-p10.o] Error 1
What this patch does are:
- fix test target typo libgcc_cv_powerpc_3_1_float128_hw
(written wrongly as libgcc_cv_powerpc_float128_hw, so it's
going to build ISA3.1 stuffs just when detecting ISA3.0).
- fix test used for libgcc_cv_powerpc_3_1_float128_hw check.
- fix test option used for libgcc_cv_powerpc_3_1_float128_hw
check.
- remove the ISA3.1 related contents from t-float128-hw.
- add new macro FLOAT128_HW_INSNS_ISA3_1 to differentiate
ISA3.1 content from ISA3.0 part in ifunc support.

Correctness and performance test programs used during development of
this project may be found in the attachment to:
https://www.mail-archive.com/gcc-patches@gcc.gnu.org/msg254210.html
Summary of Purpose
This patch to libgcc/libgcc2.c __divdc3 provides an
opportunity to gain important improvements to the quality of answers
for the default complex divide routine (half, float, double, extended,
long double precisions) when dealing with very large or very small exponents.
The current code correctly implements Smith's method (1962) [2]
further modified by c99's requirements for dealing with NaN (not a
number) results. When working with input values where the exponents
are greater than *_MAX_EXP/2 or less than -(*_MAX_EXP)/2, results are
substantially different from the answers provided by quad precision
more than 1% of the time. This error rate may be unacceptable for many
applications that cannot a priori restrict their computations to the
safe range. The proposed method reduces the frequency of
"substantially different" answers by more than 99% for double
precision at a modest cost of performance.
Differences between current gcc methods and the new method will be
described. Then accuracy and performance differences will be discussed.
Background
This project started with an investigation related to
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=59714. Study of Beebe[1]
provided an overview of past and recent practice for computing complex
divide. The current glibc implementation is based on Robert Smith's
algorithm [2] from 1962. A google search found the paper by Baudin
and Smith [3] (same Robert Smith) published in 2012. Elen Kalda's
proposed patch [4] is based on that paper.
I developed two sets of test data by randomly distributing values over
a restricted range and the full range of input values. The current
complex divide handled the restricted range well enough, but failed on
the full range more than 1% of the time. Baudin and Smith's primary
test for "ratio" equals zero reduced the cases with 16 or more error
bits by a factor of 5, but still left too many flawed answers. Adding
debug print out to cases with substantial errors allowed me to see the
intermediate calculations for test values that failed. I noted that
for many of the failures, "ratio" was a subnormal. Changing the
"ratio" test from check for zero to check for subnormal reduced the 16
bit error rate by another factor of 12. This single modified test
provides the greatest benefit for the least cost, but the percentage
of cases with greater than 16 bit errors (double precision data) is
still greater than 0.027% (2.7 in 10,000).
Continued examination of remaining errors and their intermediate
computations led to the various tests of input value tests and scaling
to avoid under/overflow. The current patch does not handle some of the
rare and most extreme combinations of input values, but the random
test data is only showing 1 case in 10 million that has an error of
greater than 12 bits. That case has 18 bits of error and is due to
subtraction cancellation. These results are significantly better
than the results reported by Baudin and Smith.
Support for half, float, double, extended, and long double precision
is included as all are handled with suitable preprocessor symbols in a
single source routine. Since half precision is computed with float
precision as per current libgcc practice, the enhanced algorithm
provides no benefit for half precision and would cost performance.
Further investigation showed changing the half precision algorithm
to use the simple formula (real=a*c+b*d imag=b*c-a*d) caused no
loss of precision and modest improvement in performance.
The existing constants for each precision:
float: FLT_MAX, FLT_MIN;
double: DBL_MAX, DBL_MIN;
extended and/or long double: LDBL_MAX, LDBL_MIN
are used for avoiding the more common overflow/underflow cases. This
use is made generic by defining appropriate __LIBGCC2_* macros in
c-cppbuiltin.c.
Tests are added for when both parts of the denominator have exponents
small enough to allow shifting any subnormal values to normal values
all input values could be scaled up without risking overflow. That
gained a clear improvement in accuracy. Similarly, when either
numerator was subnormal and the other numerator and both denominator
values were not too large, scaling could be used to reduce risk of
computing with subnormals. The test and scaling values used all fit
within the allowed exponent range for each precision required by the C
standard.
Float precision has more difficulty with getting correct answers than
double precision. When hardware for double precision floating point
operations is available, float precision is now handled in double
precision intermediate calculations with the simple algorithm the same
as the half-precision method of using float precision for intermediate
calculations. Using the higher precision yields exact results for all
tested input values (64-bit double, 32-bit float) with the only
performance cost being the requirement to convert the four input
values from float to double. If double precision hardware is not
available, then float complex divide will use the same improved
algorithm as the other precisions with similar change in performance.
Further Improvement
The most common remaining substantial errors are due to accuracy loss
when subtracting nearly equal values. This patch makes no attempt to
improve that situation.
NOTATION
For all of the following, the notation is:
Input complex values:
a+bi (a= real part, b= imaginary part)
c+di
Output complex value:
e+fi = (a+bi)/(c+di)
For the result tables:
current = current method (SMITH)
b1div = method proposed by Elen Kalda
b2div = alternate method considered by Elen Kalda
new = new method proposed by this patch
DESCRIPTIONS of different complex divide methods:
NAIVE COMPUTATION (-fcx-limited-range):
e = (a*c + b*d)/(c*c + d*d)
f = (b*c - a*d)/(c*c + d*d)
Note that c*c and d*d will overflow or underflow if either
c or d is outside the range 2^-538 to 2^512.
This method is available in gcc when the switch -fcx-limited-range is
used. That switch is also enabled by -ffast-math. Only one who has a
clear understanding of the maximum range of all intermediate values
generated by an application should consider using this switch.
SMITH's METHOD (current libgcc):
if(fabs(c)<fabs(d) {
r = c/d;
denom = (c*r) + d;
e = (a*r + b) / denom;
f = (b*r - a) / denom;
} else {
r = d/c;
denom = c + (d*r);
e = (a + b*r) / denom;
f = (b - a*r) / denom;
}
Smith's method is the current default method available with __divdc3.
Elen Kalda's METHOD
Elen Kalda proposed a patch about a year ago, also based on Baudin and
Smith, but not including tests for subnormals:
https://gcc.gnu.org/legacy-ml/gcc-patches/2019-08/msg01629.html [4]
It is compared here for accuracy with this patch.
This method applies the most significant part of the algorithm
proposed by Baudin&Smith (2012) in the paper "A Robust Complex
Division in Scilab" [3]. Elen's method also replaces two divides by
one divide and two multiplies due to the high cost of divide on
aarch64. In the comparison sections, this method will be labeled
b1div. A variation discussed in that patch which does not replace the
two divides will be labeled b2div.
inline void improved_internal (MTYPE a, MTYPE b, MTYPE c, MTYPE d)
{
r = d/c;
t = 1.0 / (c + (d * r));
if (r != 0) {
x = (a + (b * r)) * t;
y = (b - (a * r)) * t;
} else {
/* Changing the order of operations avoids the underflow of r impacting
the result. */
x = (a + (d * (b / c))) * t;
y = (b - (d * (a / c))) * t;
}
}
if (FABS (d) < FABS (c)) {
improved_internal (a, b, c, d);
} else {
improved_internal (b, a, d, c);
y = -y;
}
NEW METHOD (proposed by patch) to replace the current default method:
The proposed method starts with an algorithm proposed by Baudin&Smith
(2012) in the paper "A Robust Complex Division in Scilab" [3]. The
patch makes additional modifications to that method for further
reductions in the error rate. The following code shows the #define
values for double precision. See the patch for #define values used
for other precisions.
#define RBIG ((DBL_MAX)/2.0)
#define RMIN (DBL_MIN)
#define RMIN2 (0x1.0p-53)
#define RMINSCAL (0x1.0p+51)
#define RMAX2 ((RBIG)*(RMIN2))
if (FABS(c) < FABS(d)) {
/* prevent overflow when arguments are near max representable */
if ((FABS (d) > RBIG) || (FABS (a) > RBIG) || (FABS (b) > RBIG) ) {
a = a * 0.5;
b = b * 0.5;
c = c * 0.5;
d = d * 0.5;
}
/* minimize overflow/underflow issues when c and d are small */
else if (FABS (d) < RMIN2) {
a = a * RMINSCAL;
b = b * RMINSCAL;
c = c * RMINSCAL;
d = d * RMINSCAL;
}
else {
if(((FABS (a) < RMIN) && (FABS (b) < RMAX2) && (FABS (d) < RMAX2)) ||
((FABS (b) < RMIN) && (FABS (a) < RMAX2) && (FABS (d) < RMAX2))) {
a = a * RMINSCAL;
b = b * RMINSCAL;
c = c * RMINSCAL;
d = d * RMINSCAL;
}
}
r = c/d; denom = (c*r) + d;
if( r > RMIN ) {
e = (a*r + b) / denom ;
f = (b*r - a) / denom
} else {
e = (c * (a/d) + b) / denom;
f = (c * (b/d) - a) / denom;
}
}
[ only presenting the fabs(c) < fabs(d) case here, full code in patch. ]
Before any computation of the answer, the code checks for any input
values near maximum to allow down scaling to avoid overflow. These
scalings almost never harm the accuracy since they are by 2. Values that
are over RBIG are relatively rare but it is easy to test for them and
allow aviodance of overflows.
Testing for RMIN2 reveals when both c and d are less than [FLT|DBL]_EPSILON.
By scaling all values by 1/EPSILON, the code converts subnormals to normals,
avoids loss of accuracy and underflows in intermediate computations
that otherwise might occur. If scaling a and b by 1/EPSILON causes either
to overflow, then the computation will overflow whatever method is used.
Finally, we test for either a or b being subnormal (RMIN) and if so,
for the other three values being small enough to allow scaling. We
only need to test a single denominator value since we have already
determined which of c and d is larger.
Next, r (the ratio of c to d) is checked for being near zero. Baudin
and Smith checked r for zero. This code improves that approach by
checking for values less than DBL_MIN (subnormal) covers roughly 12
times as many cases and substantially improves overall accuracy. If r
is too small, then when it is used in a multiplication, there is a
high chance that the result will underflow to zero, losing significant
accuracy. That underflow is avoided by reordering the computation.
When r is subnormal, the code replaces a*r (= a*(c/d)) with ((a/d)*c)
which is mathematically the same but avoids the unnecessary underflow.
TEST Data
Two sets of data are presented to test these methods. Both sets
contain 10 million pairs of complex values. The exponents and
mantissas are generated using multiple calls to random() and then
combining the results. Only values which give results to complex
divide that are representable in the appropriate precision after
being computed in quad precision are used.
The first data set is labeled "moderate exponents".
The exponent range is limited to -DBL_MAX_EXP/2 to DBL_MAX_EXP/2
for Double Precision (use FLT_MAX_EXP or LDBL_MAX_EXP for the
appropriate precisions.
The second data set is labeled "full exponents".
The exponent range for these cases is the full exponent range
including subnormals for a given precision.
ACCURACY Test results:
Note: The following accuracy tests are based on IEEE-754 arithmetic.
Note: All results reporteed are based on use of fused multiply-add. If
fused multiply-add is not used, the error rate increases, giving more
1 and 2 bit errors for both current and new complex divide.
Differences between using fused multiply and not using it that are
greater than 2 bits are less than 1 in a million.
The complex divide methods are evaluated by determining the percentage
of values that exceed differences in low order bits. If a "2 bit"
test results show 1%, that would mean that 1% of 10,000,000 values
(100,000) have either a real or imaginary part that differs from the
quad precision result by more than the last 2 bits.
Results are reported for differences greater than or equal to 1 bit, 2
bits, 8 bits, 16 bits, 24 bits, and 52 bits for double precision. Even
when the patch avoids overflows and underflows, some input values are
expected to have errors due to the potential for catastrophic roundoff
from floating point subtraction. For example, when b*c and a*d are
nearly equal, the result of subtraction may lose several places of
accuracy. This patch does not attempt to detect or minimize this type
of error, but neither does it increase them.
I only show the results for Elen Kalda's method (with both 1 and
2 divides) and the new method for only 1 divide in the double
precision table.
In the following charts, lower values are better.

Table 1: Errors with Moderate Dataset (Double Precision)
Note in Table 1 that both the old and new methods give identical error
rates for data with moderate exponents. Errors exceeding 16 bits are
exceedingly rare. There are substantial increases in the 1 bit error
rates for b1div (the 1 divide/2 multiplys method) as compared to b2div
(the 2 divides method). These differences are minimal for 2 bits and
larger error measurements.

Table 2: Errors with Full Dataset (Double Precision)
Table 2 shows significant differences in error rates. First, the
difference between b1div and b2div show a significantly higher error
rate for the b1div method both for single bit errros and well
beyond. Even for 52 bits, we see the b1div method gets completely
wrong answers more than 5 times as often as b2div. To retain
comparable accuracy with current complex divide results for small
exponents and due to the increase in errors for large exponents, I
choose to use the more accurate method of two divides.
The current method has more 1.6% of cases where it is getting results
where the low 24 bits of the mantissa differ from the correct
answer. More than 1.1% of cases where the answer is completely wrong.
The new method shows less than one case in 10,000 with greater than
two bits of error and only one case in 10 million with greater than
16 bits of errors. The new patch reduces 8 bit errors by
a factor of 16,000 and virtually eliminates completely wrong
answers.
As noted above, for architectures with double precision
hardware, the new method uses that hardware for the
intermediate calculations before returning the
result in float precision. Testing of the new patch
has shown zero errors found as seen in Tables 3 and 4.

Table 4: Errors with Full Dataset (float)
As before, the current method shows an troubling rate of extreme
errors.
There very minor changes in accuracy for half-precision since the code
changes from Smith's method to the simple method. 5 out of 1 million
test cases show correct answers instead of 1 or 2 bit errors.
libgcc computes half-precision functions in float precision
allowing the existing methods to avoid overflow/underflow issues
for the allowed range of exponents for half-precision.
Extended precision (using x87 80-bit format on x86) and Long double
(using IEEE-754 128-bit on x86 and aarch64) both have 15-bit exponents
as compared to 11-bit exponents in double precision. We note that the
C standard also allows Long Double to be implemented in the equivalent
range of Double. The RMIN2 and RMINSCAL constants are selected to work
within the Double range as well as with extended and 128-bit ranges.
We will limit our performance and accurancy discussions to the 80-bit
and 128-bit formats as seen on x86 here.
The extended and long double precision investigations were more
limited. Aarch64 does not support extended precision but does support
the software implementation of 128-bit long double precision. For x86,
long double defaults to the 80-bit precision but using the
-mlong-double-128 flag switches to using the software implementation
of 128-bit precision. Both 80-bit and 128-bit precisions have the same
exponent range, with the 128-bit precision has extended mantissas.
Since this change is only aimed at avoiding underflow/overflow for
extreme exponents, I studied the extended precision results on x86 for
100,000 values. The limited exponent dataset showed no differences.
For the dataset with full exponent range, the current and new values
showed major differences (greater than 32 bits) in 567 cases out of
100,000 (0.56%). In every one of these cases, the ratio of c/d or d/c
(as appropriate) was zero or subnormal, indicating the advantage of
the new method and its continued correctness where needed.
PERFORMANCE Test results
In order for a library change to be practical, it is necessary to show
the slowdown is tolerable. The slowdowns observed are much less than
would be seen by (for example) switching from hardware double precison
to a software quad precision, which on the tested machines causes a
slowdown of around 100x).
The actual slowdown depends on the machine architecture. It also
depends on the nature of the input data. If underflow/overflow is
rare, then implementations that have strong branch prediction will
only slowdown by a few cycles. If underflow/overflow is common, then
the branch predictors will be less accurate and the cost will be
higher.
Results from two machines are presented as examples of the overhead
for the new method. The one labeled x86 is a 5 year old Intel x86
processor and the one labeled aarch64 is a 3 year old arm64 processor.
In the following chart, the times are averaged over a one million
value data set. All values are scaled to set the time of the current
method to be 1.0. Lower values are better. A value of less than 1.0
would be faster than the current method and a value greater than 1.0
would be slower than the current method.

Table 5: Performance Comparisons (ratio new/current)
The above tables omit the timing for the 1 divide and 2 multiply
comparison with the 2 divide approach.
The float results show clear performance improvement due to using the
simple method with double precision for intermediate calculations.
The double results with the newer method show less overhead for the
moderate dataset than for the full dataset. That's because the moderate
dataset does not ever take the new branches which protect from
under/overflow. The better the branch predictor, the lower the cost
for these untaken branches. Both platforms are somewhat dated, with
the x86 having a better branch predictor which reduces the cost of the
additional branches in the new code. Of course, the relative slowdown
may be greater for some architectures, especially those with limited
branch prediction combined with a high cost of misprediction.
The long double results are fairly consistent in showing the moderate
additional cost of the extra branches and calculations for all cases.
The observed cost for all precisions is claimed to be tolerable on the
grounds that:
(a) the cost is worthwhile considering the accuracy improvement shown.
(b) most applications will only spend a small fraction of their time
calculating complex divide.
(c) it is much less than the cost of extended precision
(d) users are not forced to use it (as described below)
Those users who find this degree of slowdown unsatisfactory may use
the gcc switch -fcx-fortran-rules which does not use the library
routine, instead inlining Smith's method without the C99 requirement
for dealing with NaN results. The proposed patch for libgcc complex
divide does not affect the code generated by -fcx-fortran-rules.
SUMMARY
When input data to complex divide has exponents whose absolute value
is less than half of *_MAX_EXP, this patch makes no changes in
accuracy and has only a modest effect on performance. When input data
contains values outside those ranges, the patch eliminates more than
99.9% of major errors with a tolerable cost in performance.
In comparison to Elen Kalda's method, this patch introduces more
performance overhead but reduces major errors by a factor of
greater than 4000.

The test in the PowerPC 32-bit trampoline support is backwards. It aborts
if the trampoline size is greater than the expected size. It should abort
when the trampoline size is less than the expected size. I fixed the test
so the operands are reversed. I then folded the load immediate into the
compare instruction.
I verified this by creating a 32-bit trampoline program and manually
changing the size of the trampoline to be 48 instead of 40. The program
aborted with the larger size. I updated this code and ran the test again
and it passed.
I added a test case that runs on PowerPC 32-bit Linux systems and it calls
the __trampoline_setup function with a larger buffer size than the
compiler uses. The test is not run on 64-bit systems, since the function
__trampoline_setup is not called. I also limited the test to just Linux
systems, in case trampolines are handled differently in other systems.

__floatunditf and __fixtfdi and a couple of other libgcc{.a,_s.so}
entrypoints for backwards compatibility should mean IBM double double
handling (i.e. IFmode), gcc emits such calls for that format and
form IEEE long double emits *kf* instead.
When gcc is configured without --with-long-double-format=ieee ,
everything is fine, but when it is not, we need to compile those
libgcc sources with -mno-gnu-attribute -mabi=ibmlongdouble.
The following snippet in libgcc/config/rs6000/t-linux was attempting
to ensure that, and for some routines it works fine (e.g. for _powitf2).
But, due to 4 different types of bugs it doesn't work for most of those
functions, which means that in --with-long-double-format=ieee
configured gcc those *tf* entrypoints instead handle the long double
arguments as if they were KFmode.
The bugs are:
1) the first few objs properly use $(objext) as suffix, but
several other contain a typo and use $(object) instead,
which is a variable that isn't set to anything, so we don't
add .o etc. extensions
2) while unsigned fix are properly called _fixuns*, unsigned float
are called _floatun* (without s), but the var was using there
the extra s and so didn't match
3) the variable didn't cover any of the TF <-> TI conversions,
only TF <-> DI conversions
4) nothing in libgcc_s.so was handled, as those object files are
called *_s.o rather than *.o and IBM128_SHARED_OBJS used wrong
syntax of the GNU make substitution reference, which should be
$(var:a=b) standing for $(patsubst a,b,$(var)) but it used
$(var:a:b) instead

In the patch that I applied on March 2nd, I had code to provide support for
Decimal/_Float128 conversions if the user did not use at least GLIBC 2.32. It
did this by using __ibm128 as an intermediate type. The trouble is __ibm128
cannot represent all of the numbers that _Float128 can, and you lose if you do
this conversion.
This patch removes this support. The dfp-bit.c functions now call the the
__sprintfieee128 and __strtoieee128 functions to do the conversion. If the
user does not have GLIBC, they will get a linker error that these functions do
not exist.
The float128 support functions are only built into the static libgcc, so there
isn't an issue with having references to __strtoieee128 and __sprintfieee128
with older GLIBC libraries.
As an added bonus, this patch eliminates the __sprintfkf function which
included stdio.h to get a definition for the sprintf library function. This
allows for building cross compilers without having to have a target stdio.h
available.
