From: "nszabolcs at gmail dot com" <sourceware-bugzilla@sourceware.org> To: glibc-bugs@sourceware.org Subject: [Bug math/18238] New: quality of implementation: fmin and fmax should handle signed zeros Date: Fri, 10 Apr 2015 11:03:00 -0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <bug-18238-131@http.sourceware.org/bugzilla/> (raw) https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18238 Bug ID: 18238 Summary: quality of implementation: fmin and fmax should handle signed zeros Product: glibc Version: unspecified Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: math Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org Reporter: nszabolcs at gmail dot com ISO C with Annex F seems to allow the result of fmax and fmin to have arbitrary sign when the arguments are zeros, but ideally the sign should be handled because these functions are supposed to have exact result. http://port70.net/~nsz/c/c11/n1570.html#F.10.9.2 the code below outputs: fmax(0, -0.0) signbit is not 0 fmaxf(0, -0.0f) signbit is not 0 fmaxl(-0.0L, 0) signbit is not 0 fmin(-0.0, 0) signbit is not 1 fminf(-0.0f, 0) signbit is not 1 fminl(0, -0.0L) signbit is not 1 #include <math.h> #include <stdio.h> #define T(f,s) if (signbit(f) != s) printf(#f " signbit is not " #s "\n"); int main() { T(fmax(0, -0.0), 0) T(fmaxf(0, -0.0f), 0) T(fmaxl(-0.0L, 0), 0) T(fmin(-0.0, 0), 1) T(fminf(-0.0f, 0), 1) T(fminl(0, -0.0L), 1) } -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
