| * | use scalbn or *2.0 instead of ldexp, fix fmalnsz2012-03-198-101/+102
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some code assumed ldexp(x, 1) is faster than 2.0*x, but ldexp is a wrapper around scalbn which uses multiplications inside, so this optimization is wrong. This commit also fixes fmal which accidentally used ldexp instead of ldexpl loosing precision. There are various additional changes from the work-in-progress const cleanups.

| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | exponents (base 2) near 16383 were broken due to (1) wrong cutoff, and (2) inability to fit the necessary range of scalings into a long double value. as a solution, we fall back to using frndint/fscale for insanely large exponents, and also have to special-case infinities here to avoid inf-inf generating nan. thankfully the costly code never runs in normal usage cases.

| * remove long double const workaroundsnsz2012-03-196-79/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some long double consts were stored in two doubles as a workaround for x86_64 and i386 with the following comment: /* Long double constants are slow on these arches, and broken on i386. */ This is most likely old gcc bug related to the default x87 fpu precision setting (it's double instead of double extended on BSD).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | unlike some implementations, these functions perform the equivalent of gcc's -ffloat-store on the result before returning. this is necessary to raise underflow/overflow/inexact exceptions, perform the correct rounding with denormals, etc.

| |_|/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | unlike trig functions, these are easy to do in asm because they do not involve (arbitrary-precision) argument reduction. fpatan automatically takes care of domain issues, and in asin and acos, fsqrt takes care of them for us.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | infinities were getting converted into nans. the new code simply tests for infinity and replaces it with a large magnitude value of the same sign. also, the fcomi instruction is apparently not part of the i387 instruction set, so avoid using it.

| * fix i386 fegetround and make fesetround fasternsz2012-03-171-10/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Note that the new fesetround has slightly different semantics: Storing the floating-point environment with fnstenv makes the next fldenv (or fldcw) "non-signaling", so unmasked and pending exceptions does not invoke the exception handler. (These are rare since exceptions are handled immediately and by default all exceptions are masked anyway. But if one manually unmasks an exception in the control word then either sets the corresponding exception flag in the status word or the execution of an exception raising floating-point operation gets interrupted then it may happen). So the old implementation did not trap in some rare cases where the new implementation traps. However POSIX does not specify anything like the x87 exception handling traps and the fnstenv/fldenv pair is significantly slower than the fnstcw/fldcw pair (new code is about 5x faster here and it's dominated by the function call overhead).

| | | | | | | | this is necessary to support archs where fenv is incomplete or unavailable (presently arm). fma, fmal, and the lrint family should work perfectly fine with this change; fmaf is slightly broken with respect to rounding as it depends on non-default rounding modes to do its work.
