Bruce Evans 5792e54aa9 Fixed roundf(). The following cases never worked in FreeBSD:
- in round-towards-minus-infinity mode, on all machines, roundf(x) never
  worked for 0 < |x| < 0.5 (2*0x3effffff cases in all, or almost half of
  float space).  It was -0 for 0 < x < 0.5 and 0 for -0.5 < x < 0, but
  should be 0 and -0, respectively.  This is because t = ceilf(|x|) = 1
  for these args, and when we adjust t from 1 to 0 by subtracting 1, we
  get -0 in this rounding mode, but we want and expected to get 0.
- in round-towards-minus-infinity, round towards zero and round-to-nearest
  modes, on machines that evaluate float expressions in float precision
  (most machines except i386's), roundf(x) never worked for |x| =
  <float value immediately below 0.5> (2 cases in all).  It was +-1 but
  should have been +-0.  This is because t = ceilf(|x|) = 1 for these
  args, and when we try to classify |x| by subtracting it from 1 we
  get an unexpected rounding error -- the result is 0.5 after rounding
  to float in all 3 rounding modes, so we we have forgotten the
  difference between |x| and 0.5 and end up returning the same value
  as for +-0.5.

The fix is to use floorf() instead of ceilf() and to add 1 instead of
-1 in the adjustment.  With floorf() all the expressions used are
always evaluated exactly so there are no rounding problems, and with
adjustments of +1 we don't go near -0 when adjusting.

Attempted to fix round() and roundl() by cloning the fix for roundf().
This has only been tested for round(), only on args representable as
floats.  Double expressions are evaluated in double precision even on
i386's, so round(0.5-epsilon) was broken even on i386's.  roundl()
must be completely broken on i386's since long double precision is not
really supported.  There seem to be no other dependencies on the
precision.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
