Subject: [Bug math/28327] New: Wrong return type for {,u}fromfp{,x} functions
Date: Thu, 09 Sep 2021 17:47:47 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-28327-131@http.sourceware.org/bugzilla/> (raw)

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28327

            Bug ID: 28327
           Summary: Wrong return type for {,u}fromfp{,x} functions
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.34
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: math
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: schwab@linux-m68k.org
  Target Milestone: ---

The {,u}fromfp{,x} functions are declared to return {,u}intmax_t, but that
doesn't make sense.  Even though the synopsis in 7.12.9.10/11 say they return
{,u}intmax_t, the descriptions actually talks about returning integer-valued
floating point values or NaN or the first argument.  Section B.11 actually
lists the correct return types.  It looks like N2548 has only been partially
applied to N2596.
