Use of long double can be error-prone since it could be one of 80-bit
extended precision float, IEEE 128-bit float, or IBM 128-bit float.
Instead use an explicit xf_float typedef for the remaining cases where
long double is being used in the implementation. This patch does not
touch
the PPC specializations which still use long double.
GCC provides these functions (e.g. __addtf3, etc.) in libgcc on x86_64.
Since Clang supports float128, we can also enable the existing code by
using float128 for fp_t if either __FLOAT128__ or __SIZEOF_FLOAT128__ is
defined instead of only supporting these builtins for platforms with
128-bit IEEE long doubles.
This commit defines a new tf_float typedef that matches a float with
attribute((mode(TF)) on each given architecture.
There are more tests that could be enabled for x86, but to keep the diff
smaller, I restricted test changes to ones that started failing as part
of this refactoring.
This change has been tested on x86 (natively) and
aarch64,powerpc64,riscv64 and sparc64 via qemu-user.
This supersedes https://reviews.llvm.org/D98261 and should also cover
the changes from https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/68041.
This patch implements __extendxftf2 (long double -> f128) and
__trunctfxf2 (f128 -> long double) on x86_64.
This is a preparation to unblock https://reviews.llvm.org/D53608,
We intentionally do not modify compiler-rt/lib/builtins/fp_lib.h in this
PR
(in particular, to limit the scope and avoid exposing other functions on
X86_64 in this PR).
Instead, TODOs were added to use fp_lib.h once it is available.
Test plan:
1. ninja check-compiler-rt (verified on X86_64 and on Aarch64)
In particular, new tests (extendxftf2_test.c and trunctfxf2_test.c) were
added.
2. compared the results of conversions with what other compilers (gcc)
produce.
