* Remove slow paths from expSzabolcs Nagy2018-02-121-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the __slowexp code, so exp is no longer correctly rounded.

* Remove slow paths from powWilco Dijkstra2018-02-121-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the slow paths from pow. Like several other double precision math functions, pow is exactly rounded. This is not required from math functions and causes major overheads as it requires multiple fallbacks using higher precision arithmetic if a result is close to 0.5ULP. Ridiculous slowdowns of up to 100000x have been reported when the highest precision path triggers. All GLIBC math tests pass on AArch64 and x64 (with ULP of pow set to 1). The worst case error is ~0.506ULP. A simple test over a few hundred million values shows pow is 10% faster on average. This fixes BZ #13932.

* Improve __ieee754_exp() performance by greater than 5x on sparc/x86.Patrick McGehearty2017-12-191-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These changes will be active for all platforms that don't provide their own exp() routines. They will also be active for ieee754 versions of ccos, ccosh, cosh, csin, csinh, sinh, exp10, gamma, and erf. Typical performance gains is typically around 5x when measured on Sparc s7 for common values between exp(1) and exp(40). Using the glibc perf tests on sparc, sparc (nsec) x86 (nsec) old new old new max 17629 395 5173 144 min 399 54 15 13 mean 5317 200 1349 23 The extreme max times for the old (ieee754) exp are due to the multiprecision computation in the old algorithm when the true value is very near 0.5 ulp away from an value representable in double precision. The new algorithm does not take special measures for those cases. The current glibc exp perf tests overrepresent those values. Informal testing suggests approximately one in 200 cases might invoke the high cost computation. The performance advantage of the new algorithm for other values is still large but not as large as indicated by the chart above. Glibc correctness tests for exp() and expf() were run. Within the test suite 3 input values were found to cause 1 bit differences (ulp) when "FE_TONEAREST" rounding mode is set. No differences in exp() were seen for the tested values for the other rounding modes. Typical example: exp(-0x1.760cd2p+0) (-1.46113312244415283203125) new code: 2.31973271630014299393707e-01 0x1.db14cd799387ap-3 old code: 2.31973271630014271638132e-01 0x1.db14cd7993879p-3 exp = 2.31973271630014285508337 (high precision) Old delta: off by 0.49 ulp New delta: off by 0.51 ulp In addition, because ieee754_exp() is used by other routines, cexp() showed test results with very small imaginary input values where the imaginary portion of the result was off by 3 ulp when in upward rounding mode, but not in the other rounding modes. For x86, tgamma showed a few values where the ulp increased to 6 (max ulp for tgamma is 5). Sparc tgamma did not show these failures. I presume the tgamma differences are due to compiler optimization differences within the gamma function.The gamma function is known to be difficult to compute accurately. * sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/e_exp.c: Include <math-svid-compat.h> and <errno.h>.

* Make mantissa type of mp_no configurableSiddhesh Poyarekar2013-03-261-0/+56
| | | | | | | | | | The mantissa of mp_no is intended to take only integral values. This is a relatively good choice for powerpc due to its 4 fpus, but not for other architectures, which suffer due to this choice. This change makes the default mantissa a long integer and allows powerpc to override it. Additionally, some operations have been optimized for integer manipulation, resulting in a significant improvement in performance.

| | | | | | Reverts d22ca8cdfb98001d03772ef264b244930d439b3f since it is severely broken on 32-bit.
* Make mantissa type configurableSiddhesh Poyarekar2013-03-151-0/+56
| | | | | This allows the default mantissa to be integral, with powerpc overriding it to take advantage of its FPUs.
* Consolidate copies of mp code in powerpcSiddhesh Poyarekar2013-03-082-0/+221
Retain a single copy of the mp code in power4 instead of the two identical copies in powerpc32 and powerpc64.
