+ * __log1p(f):
+ * Return log(1+f) - f for 1+f in ~[sqrt(2)/2, sqrt(2)].
+ *
+ * The following describes the overall strategy for computing
+ * logarithms in base e. The argument reduction and adding the final
+ * term of the polynomial are done by the caller for increased accuracy
+ * when different bases are used.
+ *
+ * Method :
+ * 1. Argument Reduction: find k and f such that
+ * x = 2^k * (1+f),
+ * where sqrt(2)/2 < 1+f < sqrt(2) .
+ *
+ * 2. Approximation of log(1+f).
+ * Let s = f/(2+f) ; based on log(1+f) = log(1+s) - log(1-s)
+ * = 2s + 2/3 s**3 + 2/5 s**5 + .....,
+ * = 2s + s*R
+ * We use a special Reme algorithm on [0,0.1716] to generate
+ * a polynomial of degree 14 to approximate R The maximum error
+ * of this polynomial approximation is bounded by 2**-58.45. In
+ * other words,
+ * 2 4 6 8 10 12 14
+ * R(z) ~ Lg1*s +Lg2*s +Lg3*s +Lg4*s +Lg5*s +Lg6*s +Lg7*s
+ * (the values of Lg1 to Lg7 are listed in the program)
+ * and
+ * | 2 14 | -58.45
+ * | Lg1*s +...+Lg7*s - R(z) | <= 2
+ * | |
+ * Note that 2s = f - s*f = f - hfsq + s*hfsq, where hfsq = f*f/2.
+ * In order to guarantee error in log below 1ulp, we compute log
+ * by
+ * log(1+f) = f - s*(f - R) (if f is not too large)
+ * log(1+f) = f - (hfsq - s*(hfsq+R)). (better accuracy)
+ *
+ * 3. Finally, log(x) = k*ln2 + log(1+f).
+ * = k*ln2_hi+(f-(hfsq-(s*(hfsq+R)+k*ln2_lo)))
+ * Here ln2 is split into two floating point number:
+ * ln2_hi + ln2_lo,
+ * where n*ln2_hi is always exact for |n| < 2000.
+ *
+ * Special cases:
+ * log(x) is NaN with signal if x < 0 (including -INF) ;
+ * log(+INF) is +INF; log(0) is -INF with signal;
+ * log(NaN) is that NaN with no signal.
+ *
+ * Accuracy:
+ * according to an error analysis, the error is always less than
+ * 1 ulp (unit in the last place).
+ *
+ * Constants:
+ * The hexadecimal values are the intended ones for the following
+ * constants. The decimal values may be used, provided that the
+ * compiler will convert from decimal to binary accurately enough
+ * to produce the hexadecimal values shown.
