      target-hppa: Add softfloat specializations · 005fa38d
      Richard Henderson authored
      
      Like the original MIPS, HPPA has the MSB of an SNaN set.
      However, it has different rules for silencing an SNaN:
      (1) msb is cleared and (2) msb-1 must be set if the fraction
      is now zero, and (implementation defined) may be set always.
      I haven't checked real hardware but chose the set always
      alternative because it's easy and within spec.

      fpu: add mechanism to check for invalid long double formats · d1eb8f2a
      Andrew Dutcher authored
      
      All operations that take a floatx80 as an operand need to have their
      inputs checked for malformed encodings. In all of these cases, use the
      function floatx80_invalid_encoding to perform the check. If an invalid
      operand is found, raise an invalid operation exception, and then return
      either NaN (for fp-typed results) or the integer indefinite value (the
      minimum representable signed integer value, for int-typed results).
      
      For the non-quiet comparison operations, this touches adjacent code in
      order to pass style checks.

      softfloat: Clean code format in fpu/softfloat-specialize.h · a59eaea6
      Aleksandar Markovic authored
      
      fpu/softfloat-specialize.h is the most critical file in SoftFloat
      library, since it handles numerous differences between platforms in
      relation to floating point arithmetics. This patch makes the code
      in this file more consistent format-wise, and hopefully easier to
      debug and maintain.

      softfloat: Implement run-time-configurable meaning of signaling NaN bit · af39bc8c
      Aleksandar Markovic authored
      
      This patch modifies SoftFloat library so that it can be configured in
      run-time in relation to the meaning of signaling NaN bit, while, at the
      same time, strictly preserving its behavior on all existing platforms.
      
      Background:
      
      In floating-point calculations, there is a need for denoting undefined or
      unrepresentable values. This is achieved by defining certain floating-point
      numerical values to be NaNs (which stands for "not a number"). For additional
      reasons, virtually all modern floating-point unit implementations use two
      kinds of NaNs: quiet and signaling. The binary representations of these two
      kinds of NaNs, as a rule, differ only in one bit (that bit is, traditionally,
      the first bit of mantissa).
      
      Up to 2008, standards for floating-point did not specify all details about
      binary representation of NaNs. More specifically, the meaning of the bit
      that is used for distinguishing between signaling and quiet NaNs was not
      strictly prescribed. (IEEE 754-2008 was the first floating-point standard
      that defined that meaning clearly, see [1], p. 35) As a result, different
      platforms took different approaches, and that presented considerable
      challenge for multi-platform emulators like QEMU.
      
      Mips platform represents the most complex case among QEMU-supported
      platforms regarding signaling NaN bit. Up to the Release 6 of Mips
      architecture, "1" in signaling NaN bit denoted signaling NaN, which is
      opposite to IEEE 754-2008 standard. From Release 6 on, Mips architecture
      adopted IEEE standard prescription, and "0" denotes signaling NaN. On top of
      that, Mips architecture for SIMD (also known as MSA, or vector instructions)
      also specifies signaling bit in accordance to IEEE standard. MSA unit can be
      implemented with both pre-Release 6 and Release 6 main processor units.
      
      QEMU uses SoftFloat library to implement various floating-point-related
      instructions on all platforms. The current QEMU implementation allows for
      defining meaning of signaling NaN bit during build time, and is implemented
      via preprocessor macro called SNAN_BIT_IS_ONE.
      
      On the other hand, the change in this patch enables SoftFloat library to be
      configured in run-time. This configuration is meant to occur during CPU
      initialization, at the moment when it is definitely known what desired
      behavior for particular CPU (or any additional FPUs) is.
      
      The change is implemented so that it is consistent with existing
      implementation of similar cases. This means that structure float_status is
      used for passing the information about desired signaling NaN bit on each
      invocation of SoftFloat functions. The additional field in float_status is
      called snan_bit_is_one, which supersedes macro SNAN_BIT_IS_ONE.
      
      IMPORTANT:
      
      This change is not meant to create any change in emulator behavior or
      functionality on any platform. It just provides the means for SoftFloat
      library to be used in a more flexible way - in other words, it will just
      prepare SoftFloat library for usage related to Mips platform and its
      specifics regarding signaling bit meaning, which is done in some of
      subsequent patches from this series.
      
      Further break down of changes:
      
        1) Added field snan_bit_is_one to the structure float_status, and
           correspondent setter function set_snan_bit_is_one().
      
        2) Constants <float16|float32|float64|floatx80|float128>_default_nan
           (used both internally and externally) converted to functions
           <float16|float32|float64|floatx80|float128>_default_nan(float_status*).
           This is necessary since they are dependent on signaling bit meaning.
           At the same time, for the sake of code cleanup and simplicity, constants
           <floatx80|float128>_default_nan_<low|high> (used only internally within
           SoftFloat library) are removed, as not needed.
      
        3) Added a float_status* argument to SoftFloat library functions
           XXX_is_quiet_nan(XXX a_), XXX_is_signaling_nan(XXX a_),
           XXX_maybe_silence_nan(XXX a_). This argument must be present in
           order to enable correct invocation of new version of functions
           XXX_default_nan(). (XXX is <float16|float32|float64|floatx80|float128>
           here)
      
        4) Updated code for all platforms to reflect changes in SoftFloat library.
           This change is twofolds: it includes modifications of SoftFloat library
           functions invocations, and an addition of invocation of function
           set_snan_bit_is_one() during CPU initialization, with arguments that
           are appropriate for each particular platform. It was established that
           all platforms zero their main CPU data structures, so snan_bit_is_one(0)
           in appropriate places is not added, as it is not needed.

      fpu: softfloat: drop INLINE macro · a49db98d
      Luiz Capitulino authored
      
      This commit expands all uses of the INLINE macro and drop it.
      
      The reason for this is to avoid clashes with external libraries with
      bad name conventions and also because renaming keywords is not a good
      practice.
