* optimize scalbn familyRich Felker2012-03-203-7/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the fscale instruction is slow everywhere, probably because it involves a costly and unnecessary integer truncation operation that ends up being a no-op in common usages. instead, construct a floating point scale value with integer arithmetic and simply multiply by it, when possible. for float and double, this is always possible by going to the next-larger type. we use some cheap but effective saturating arithmetic tricks to make sure even very large-magnitude exponents fit. for long double, if the scaling exponent is too large to fit in the exponent of a long double value, we simply fallback to the expensive fscale method. on atom cpu, these changes speed up scalbn by over 30%. (min rdtsc timing dropped from 110 cycles to 70 cycles.)
* remquo asm: return quotient mod 8, as intended by the specRich Felker2012-03-191-17/+26
| | | | | this is a lot more efficient and also what is generally wanted. perhaps the bit shuffling could be more efficient...
* use alternate formula for acos asm to avoid loss of precisionRich Felker2012-03-191-3/+11

* fix exp asmRich Felker2012-03-191-23/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* asm for log2Rich Felker2012-03-193-0/+21

* asm for remquoRich Felker2012-03-193-0/+43
| | | | | this could perhaps use some additional testing for corner cases, but it seems to be correct.
* optimize exponential asm for i386Rich Felker2012-03-192-58/+77
| | | | | | up to 30% faster exp2 by avoiding slow frndint and fscale functions. expm1 also takes a much more direct path for small arguments (the expected usage case).

* asm for scalbn familyRich Felker2012-03-199-0/+64
| | | | | | | 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.
* asm for inverse trig functionsRich Felker2012-03-1912-0/+93
| | | | | | | 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.
* asm for log functionsRich Felker2012-03-186-0/+42

* fix broken exponential asmRich Felker2012-03-182-1/+21
| | | | | | | | | 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.

* asm versions of some simple math functions for i386 and x86_64Rich Felker2012-03-186-0/+36
| | | | | | | these are functions that have direct fpu approaches to implementation without problematic exception or rounding issues. x86_64 lacks float/double versions because i'm unfamiliar with the necessary sse code for performing these operations.
* remove special nan handling from x86 sqrt asmRich Felker2012-03-151-3/+0
| | | | | | | a double precision nan, when converted to extended (80-bit) precision, will never end in 0x400, since the corresponding bits do not exist in the original double precision value. thus there's no need to waste time and code size on this check.
* simplify nan check in sqrt (x86 asm); result of sqrt is never negativeRich Felker2012-03-151-4/+3

* correctly rounded sqrt() asm for x86 (i387)Rich Felker2012-03-151-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the fsqrt opcode is correctly rounded, but only in the fpu's selected precision mode, which is 80-bit extended precision. to get a correctly rounded double precision output, we check for the only corner cases where two-step rounding could give different results than one-step (extended-precision mantissa ending in 0x400) and adjust the mantissa slightly in the opposite direction of the rounding which the fpu already did (reported in the c1 flag of the fpu status word). this should have near-zero cost in the non-corner cases and at worst very low cost. note that in order for sqrt() to get used when compiling with gcc, the broken, non-conformant builtin sqrt must be disabled.

* first commit of the new libm!Rich Felker2012-03-1325-179/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | thanks to the hard work of Szabolcs Nagy (nsz), identifying the best (from correctness and license standpoint) implementations from freebsd and openbsd and cleaning them up! musl should now fully support c99 float and long double math functions, and has near-complete complex math support. tgmath should also work (fully on gcc-compatible compilers, and mostly on any c99 compiler). based largely on commit 0376d44a890fea261506f1fc63833e7a686dca19 from nsz's libm git repo, with some additions (dummy versions of a few missing long double complex functions, etc.) by me. various cleanups still need to be made, including re-adding (if they're correct) some asm functions that were dropped.
