The threshold value at which powf overflows depends on the rounding mode and the current check did not take this into account. So when the result was rounded away from zero it could become infinity without setting errno to ERANGE. Example: pow(0x1.7ac7cp+5, 23) is 0x1.fffffep+127 + 0.1633ulp If the result goes above 0x1.fffffep+127 + 0.5ulp then errno is set, which is fine in nearest rounding mode, but powf(0x1.7ac7cp+5, 23) is inf in upward rounding mode powf(-0x1.7ac7cp+5, 23) is -inf in downward rounding mode and the previous implementation did not set errno in these cases. The fix tries to avoid affecting the common code path or calling a function that may introduce a stack frame, so float arithmetics is used to check the rounding mode and the threshold is selected accordingly.
README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
