2013-05-15	math: use double_t for temporaries to avoid stores on i386	Szabolcs Nagy	-1/+1
	When FLT_EVAL_METHOD!=0 (only i386 with x87 fp) the excess precision of an expression must be removed in an assignment. (gcc needs -fexcess-precision=standard or -std=c99 for this) This is done by extra load/store instructions which adds code bloat when lot of temporaries are used and it makes the result less precise in many cases. Using double_t and float_t avoids these issues on i386 and it makes no difference on other archs. For now only a few functions are modified where the excess precision is clearly beneficial (mostly polynomial evaluations with temporaries). object size differences on i386, gcc-4.8: old new __cosdf.o 123 95 __cos.o 199 169 __sindf.o 131 95 __sin.o 225 203 __tandf.o 207 151 __tan.o 605 499 erff.o 1470 1416 erf.o 1703 1649 j0f.o 1779 1745 j0.o 2308 2274 j1f.o 1602 1568 j1.o 2286 2252 tgamma.o 1431 1424 math/*.o 64164 63635
2012-12-16	math: use 0x1p-120f and 0x1p120f for tiny and huge values	Szabolcs Nagy	-2/+2
	previously 0x1p-1000 and 0x1p1000 was used for raising inexact exception like x+tiny (when x is big) or x+huge (when x is small) the rational is that these float consts are large enough (0x1p-120 + 1 raises inexact even on ld128 which has 113 mant bits) and float consts maybe smaller or easier to load on some platforms (on i386 this reduced the object file size by 4bytes in some cases)
2012-12-11	math: clean up inverse trigonometric functions	Szabolcs Nagy	-37/+37
	modifications: * avoid unsigned->signed conversions * removed various volatile hacks * use FORCE_EVAL when evaluating only for side-effects * factor out R() rational approximation instead of manual inline * __invtrigl.h now only provides __invtrigl_R, __pio2_hi and __pio2_lo * use 2pio2_hi, 2pio2_lo instead of pi_hi, pi_lo otherwise the logic is not changed, long double versions will need a revisit when a genaral long double cleanup happens
2012-11-14	math: ld80 invtrig cleanups	Szabolcs Nagy	-0/+1
	keeping only commonly used data in invtrigl
2012-03-19	code cleanup of named constants	nsz	-7/+6
	zero, one, two, half are replaced by const literals The policy was to use the f suffix for float consts (1.0f), but don't use suffix for long double consts (these consts can be exactly represented as double).
2012-03-18	fix loads of missing const in new libm, and some global vars (?!) in powl	Rich Felker	-1/+1

2012-03-13	first commit of the new libm!	Rich Felker	-0/+101
	thanks to the hard work of Szabolcs Nagy (nsz), identifying the best (from correctness and license standpoint) implementations from freebsd and openbsd and cleaning them up! musl should now fully support c99 float and long double math functions, and has near-complete complex math support. tgmath should also work (fully on gcc-compatible compilers, and mostly on any c99 compiler). based largely on commit 0376d44a890fea261506f1fc63833e7a686dca19 from nsz's libm git repo, with some additions (dummy versions of a few missing long double complex functions, etc.) by me. various cleanups still need to be made, including re-adding (if they're correct) some asm functions that were dropped.
