Thanks for the inputs. I have used CFN_BUILT_IN_FADD, etc in this
following patch and function is getting folded.
My question is that how the addition and narrowing should be performed
(is it ok to use do_add for addition?). As functions in real.c does
not operate on any specific precision, just defining the return type
as float would do the trick? Or do I need to make trailing
out-of-precision bits zero? If yes, having functions like
double_to_float would then be useful or such functions already exist
to do the conversion?

Thanks,
Tejas
