Subject: [Ada] Implement part of System.Fat_Gen more efficiently
Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2020 10:56:03 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201214155603.GA4072@adacore.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1030 bytes --]
This reimplements the low-level primitives of System.Fat_Gen, i.e.
Copy_Sign, Decompose and Scaling more efficiently, by using the same
direct approach as the existing implementation of Valid; only the
normalization of denormalized numbers and the gradual underflow are
still left to the hardware.
This also speeds up Pred and Succ for denormalized numbers.
Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on trunk
gcc/ada/
* libgnat/s-fatgen.ads (Compose): Add pragma Inline.
(Copy_Sign): Likewise.
(Exponent): Likewise.
(Fraction): Likewise.
* libgnat/s-fatgen.adb: Remove with clause for System, add
with and use clauses for System.Unsigned_Types.
Add pragma Warnings (Off) for non-static constants.
Remove precomputed tables of powers of radix and add a few
constants describing the floating-point format.
(Gradual_Scaling): Delete.
(Copy_Sign): Reimplement directly.
(Decompose): Likewise.
(Scaling): Likewise.
(Pred): Speed up.
(Succ): Likewise.
(Truncation): Tidy up.
(Valid): Move constants to library level.
