The recently added new math code inlines error handling instead of using
error handling wrappers around __ieee754* internal symbols, and thus the
__ieee754* symbols are no longer provided.
However __ieee754_expf and __ieee754_logf are used in the implementation
of a number of other math functions. These symbols are safe to redirect
to the external expf and logf symbols, because those names are always
reserved when single precision math functions are reserved and the
additional error handling code is either not reached or there will be
an error in the final result that will override an internal spurious
errno setting.
For consistency all of __ieee754_expf, __ieee754_logf and __ieee754_powf
are redirected using a macro.
Based on code from https://github.com/ARM-software/optimized-routines/
This patch adds a highly optimized generic implementation of expf,
exp2f, logf, log2f and powf. The new functions are not only
faster (6x for powf!), but are also smaller and more accurate.
In order to achieve this, the algorithm uses double precision
arithmetic for accuracy, avoids divisions and uses small table
lookups to minimize the polynomials. Special cases are handled
inline to avoid the unnecessary overhead of wrapper functions and
set errno to POSIX requirements.
The new functions are added under newlib/libm/common, but the old
implementations are kept (in newlib/libm/math) for non-IEEE or
pre-C99 systems. Targets can enable the new math code by defining
__OBSOLETE_MATH_DEFAULT to 0 in newlib/libc/include/machine/ieeefp.h,
users can override the default by defining __OBSOLETE_MATH.
Currently the new code is enabled for AArch64 and AArch32 with VFP.
Targets with a single precision FPU may still prefer the old
implementation.

previous commit 4c90db7bc8 introduced
a compile time error because libm/common/s_infconst.c used the remove
__fmath, __dmath, and __ldmath union types.
Since this is very old, and unused for a very long time, just drop the
file and thus the __infinity constants entirely.
Exception: Cygwin exports __infinity from the beginning. There's a very,
VERY low probability that any existing executable or lib still uses this
constant, but we just keep it in for backward compat, nevertheless.

__builtin_isinf_sign doesn't reflect the correct return value for NaN
to emulate finite function. Use __builtin_isfinite instead whichg is available
since GCC 4.4 just as __builtin_isinf_sign.
* libm/common/sl_finite.c (finitel): Use __builtin_isfinite.

I think these are accidental omissions, as these source files are listed to be

warnings.
* doc/doc.str: add BUGS and SEEALSO sections (to match texi2pod.pl
which has them); Remove ITEM command (redundant with makedoc built-in
"o", not used in any present source file so nothing is lost, anyway).

to do things. Initial sections on documentation and ELIX levels.
