The machine configure scripts are all effectively stub scripts that
pass the higher level options to its own makefile. The only one doing
any custom tests was nds32. The rest were all effectively the same as
the libm/ configure script.
So instead of recursively running configure in all of these subdirs,
generate their makefiles from the top-level configure. For nds32,
deploy a pattern of including subdir logic via m4:
m4_include([machine/nds32/acinclude.m4])
Even its set of checks are very small -- it does 2 preprocessor tests
and sets up 2 makefile conditionals.
Some of the generated machine makefiles have a bunch of extra stuff
added to them, but that's because they were inconsistent in their
configure libtool calls. The top-level has it, so it exports some
new vars to the ones that weren't already.
The machine/{configure,Makefile} files exist only to fan out to the
specific machine/$arch/ subdir. We already have all that same info
in the libm/ dir itself, so by moving the recursive configure and
make calls into it, we can cut off this logic entirely and save the
overhead.
For arches that don't have a machine subdir, it means they can skip
the logic entirely.
This matches what the other GNU toolchain projects have done already.
The generated diff in practice isn't terribly large. This will allow
more use of subdir local.mk includes due to fixes & improvements that
came after the 1.11 release series.
The newlib & libgloss dirs are already generated using autoconf-2.69.
To avoid merging new code and/or accidental regeneration using diff
versions, leverage config/override.m4 to pin to 2.69 exactly. This
matches what gcc/binutils/gdb are already doing.
The README file already says to use autoconf-2.69.
To accomplish this, it's just as simple as adding -I flags to the
top-level config/ dir when running aclocal. This is because the
override.m4 file overrides AC_INIT to first require the specific
autoconf version before calling the real AC_INIT.
Since automake deprecated the INCLUDES name in favor of AM_CPPFLAGS,
change all existing users over. The generated code is the same since
the two variables have been used in the same exact places by design.
There are other cleanups to be done, but lets focus on just renaming
here so we can upgrade to a newer automake version w/out triggering
new warnings.
So far the build mechanism in newlib only allowed to either define
machine-specific headers, or headers shared between all machines.
In some cases, architectures are sufficiently alike to share header
files between them, but not with other architectures. A good example
is ix86 vs. x86_64, which share certain traits with each other, but
not with other architectures.
Introduce a new configure variable called "shared_machine_dir". This
dir can then be used for headers shared between architectures.

The current gamma, gamma_r, gammaf and gammaf_r functions return
|gamma(x)| instead of ln(|gamma(x)|) due to a change made back in 2002
to the __ieee754_gamma_r implementation. This patch fixes that, making
all of these functions map too their lgamma equivalents.
To fix the underlying bug, the __ieee754_gamma functions have been
changed to return gamma(x), removing the _r variants as those are no
longer necessary. Their names have been changed to __ieee754_tgamma to
avoid potential confusion from users.
Now that the __ieee754_tgamma functions return the correctly signed
value, the tgamma functions have been modified to use them.
libm.a now exposes the following gamma functions:
ln(|gamma(x)|):
__ieee754_lgamma_r
__ieee754_lgammaf_r
lgamma
lgamma_r
gamma
gamma_r
lgammaf
lgammaf_r
gammaf
gammaf_r
lgammal (on machines where long double is double)
gamma(x):
__ieee754_tgamma
__ieee754_tgammaf
tgamma
tgammaf
tgammal (on machines where long double is double)
Additional aliases for any of the above functions can be added if
necessary; in particular, I'm not sure if we need to include
__ieee754_gamma*_r functions (which would return ln(|(gamma(x)|).

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.
