- 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.
