Bug ID: 20255
Summary: [i386] fdim, fdimf return with excess range and
precision / double rounding
Product: glibc
Version: 2.23
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: math
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: jsm28 at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
Host: i?86-*-*
The i386 versions of fdim and fdimf return immediately after doing a
subtraction, so potentially returning a result with excess range and precision
(and with double rounding in the case of fdim if the caller reduces to the
range and precision of the type; for fdimf, the precision is high enough that
double rounding issues do not occur).
