* Fix x86/x86_64 expm1l spurious underflow exceptions (bug 16539).Joseph Myers2014-06-241-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes bug 16539, spurious underflow exceptions from x86 / x86-64 expm1l. The problem is that the computation of a base-2 exponent with extra precision involves spurious underflows for arguments that are small but not subnormal, so a check is added to just return the argument in those cases. (If the argument *is* subnormal, underflowing is correct and the existing code will always underflow, so it suffices to keep using the existing code in that case; some expm1 implementations have a bug (bug 16353) with missing underflow exceptions, but I don't think there's such a bug in this particular version.) Tested x86_64 and x86; no ulps updates needed. (auto-libm-test-out diffs omitted below.) [BZ #16539] * sysdeps/i386/fpu/e_expl.S (IEEE754_EXPL) [USE_AS_EXPM1L]: Just return the argument for normal arguments with exponent below -64. * sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/e_expl.S (IEEE754_EXPL) [USE_AS_EXPM1L]: Likewise. * math/auto-libm-test-in: Add another test of expm1. * math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
* Fix x86/x86_64 expl/exp10l spurious underflows (bug 16348).Joseph Myers2014-03-271-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes bug 16348, spurious underflows from x86/x86_64 expl on arguments close to 0. These implementations effectively use expm1 (on the fractional part of the argument) internally, so resulting in spurious underflows when the result is very close to 1. For arguments small enough that the round-to-nearest correct result is 1, this patch uses 1+x instead. These implementations are also used for exp10l and so the patch fixes similar issues there (the 0x1p-67 threshold being small enough to be correct for exp10l as well as expl). But because of spurious underflows in other exp10 implementations (bug 16560), the tests aren't added for exp10 at this point - they can be added when the other exp10 parts of that bug are fixed. Tested x86_64 and x86; no ulps updates needed. [BZ #16348] * sysdeps/i386/fpu/e_expl.S (IEEE754_EXPL) [!USE_AS_EXPM1L]: Use 1+x for argument with exponent below -67. * sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/e_expl.S (IEEE754_EXPL) [!USE_AS_EXPM1L]: Likewise. * math/auto-libm-test-in: Add more tests of exp. * math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
* Fix x86 / x86_64 expl / expl10l wild results in directed rounding modes (bug ↵Joseph Myers2013-12-211-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 16356). This patch fixes bug 16356, bad results from x86 / x86_64 expl / exp10l in directed rounding modes, the most serious of the bugs shown up by my patch expanding libm test coverage. When I fixed bug 16293, I thought it was only necessary to set round-to-nearest when using frndint in expm1 functions, because in other cases the cancellation error from having the resulting fractional part close to 1 or -1 would not be significant. However, in expl and exp10l, the way the final fractional part gets computed (something more complicated than a simple subtraction, because more precision is needed than you'd get that way) can result in a value outside the range [-1, 1] when the argument to frndint was very close to an integer and was rounded the "wrong" way because of the rounding mode - and the f2xm1 instruction has undefined results if its argument is outside [-1, 1], so resulting in the large errors seen. So this patch removes the USE_AS_EXPM1L conditionals on the round-to-nearest settings, so all of expl, expm1l and exp10l now get round-to-nearest used for frndint (meaning the final fractional part can at most be slightly above 0.5 in magnitude). Associated tests of exp and exp10 are added and testing of exp10 in directed rounding modes enabled. Tested x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly. * sysdeps/i386/fpu/e_expl.S (IEEE754_EXPL): Also set round-to-nearest for [!USE_AS_EXPM1L]. * sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/e_expl.S (IEEE754_EXPL): Likewise. * math/auto-libm-test-in: Do not expect cosh tests to fail. Add more tests of exp and exp10.

* Fix x86/x86_64 expm1 inaccuracy near 0 in directed rounding modes (bug 16293).Joseph Myers2013-12-191-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug 16293 is inaccuracy of x86/x86_64 versions of expm1, near 0 in directed rounding modes, that arises from frndint rounding the exponent to 1 or -1 instead of 0, resulting in large cancellation error. This inaccuracy in turn affects other functions such as sinh that use expm1. This patch fixes the problem by setting round-to-nearest mode temporarily around the affected calls to frndint. I don't think this is needed for other uses of frndint, such as in exp itself, as only for expm1 is the cancellation error significant. Tested x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly. * sysdeps/i386/fpu/e_expl.S (IEEE754_EXPL) [USE_AS_EXPM1L]: Set round-to-nearest mode when using frndint. * sysdeps/i386/fpu/s_expm1.S (__expm1): Likewise. * sysdeps/i386/fpu/s_expm1f.S (__expm1f): Likewise. * sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/e_expl.S (IEEE754_EXPL) [USE_AS_EXPM1L]: Likewise. * math/auto-libm-test-in: Add more tests of expm1. Do not expect sinh test to fail. * math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated. * math/libm-test.inc (TEST_COND_x86_64): Remove macro. (TEST_COND_x86): Likewise. (expm1_tonearest_test_data): New array.
