GCC modified for the FreeChainXenon project
![]() C2x changes the <float.h> definition of *_EPSILON to apply only to normalized numbers. The effect is that LDBL_EPSILON for IBM long double becomes 0x1p-105L instead of 0x1p-1074L. There is a reasonable case for considering this a defect fix - it originated from the issue reporting process (DR#467), though it ended up being resolved by a paper (N2326) for C2x rather than through the issue process, and code using *_EPSILON often needs to override the pre-C2x value of LDBL_EPSILON and use something on the order of magnitude of the C2x value instead. However, I've followed the conservative approach of only making the change for C2x and not for previous standard versions (and not for C++, which doesn't have the C2x changes in this area). The testcases added are intended to be valid for all long double formats. The C11 one is based on gcc.target/powerpc/rs6000-ldouble-2.c (and when we move to a C2x default, gcc.target/powerpc/rs6000-ldouble-2.c will need an appropriate option added to keep using an older language version). Tested with no regressions for cross to powerpc-linux-gnu. gcc/c-family/ * c-cppbuiltin.cc (builtin_define_float_constants): Do not special-case __*_EPSILON__ setting for IBM long double for C2x. gcc/testsuite/ * gcc.dg/c11-float-7.c, gcc.dg/c2x-float-12.c: New tests. |

This directory contains the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC). The GNU Compiler Collection is free software. See the files whose names start with COPYING for copying permission. The manuals, and some of the runtime libraries, are under different terms; see the individual source files for details. The directory INSTALL contains copies of the installation information as HTML and plain text. The source of this information is gcc/doc/install.texi. The installation information includes details of what is included in the GCC sources and what files GCC installs. See the file gcc/doc/gcc.texi (together with other files that it includes) for usage and porting information. An online readable version of the manual is in the files gcc/doc/gcc.info*. See http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs/ for how to report bugs usefully. Copyright years on GCC source files may be listed using range notation, e.g., 1987-2012, indicating that every year in the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that could otherwise be listed individually.
