@chapter NEC V70 Specific Functions
The NEC V70 has machine instructions for fast IEEE floating-point
arithmetic, including operations normally provided by the library.
When you use the @file{/usr/include/fastmath.h} header file, the
names of several library math functions are redefined to call the
@code{fastmath} routine (using the corresponding V70 machine instructions)
whenever possible.
For example,
@example
#include <fastmath.h>
double sqsin(x)
double x;
@{
return sin(x*x);
@}
@end example
expands into the code
@example
@dots{}
double sqsin(x)
double x;
@{
return fast_sin(x*x);
@}
@end example
The library has an entry @code{fast_sin} which uses the machine
instruction @code{fsin.l} to perform the operation. Note that the
built-in instructions cannot set @code{errno}
in the same way that the C coded functions do. Refer to a V70
instruction manual to see how errors are generated and handled.
Also, the library provides true @code{float} entry points. The
@code{fast_sinf} entry point really performs a @code{fsin.s}
operation. Because of this, the instructions are only useful when
using code compiled with an ANSI C compiler. The prototypes
and definitions for the floating-point versions of the math library
routines are only defined if compiling a module with an ANSI C
compiler.
