The check for only __GNUC_STDC_INLINE__ and __GNUC_GNU_INLINE__ may
not be sufficient since those flags were added during initial support
for C99 inlining semantics. There is also a problem with always
defining __extern_inline and __extern_always_inline, since it enables
inline wrapper functions even when GNU inlining semantics are not
guaranteed. This, along with the possibility of such wrappers using
redirection (btowc for example) could result in compiler generating an
infinitely recusrive call to the function.
In fact it was such a recursion that led to this code being written
the way it was; see:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=186410
The initial change was to fix bugs 14530 and 13741, but they can be
resolved by checking if __fortify_function and/or
__extern_always_inline are defined, as it has been done in this patch.
In addition, I have audited uses of __extern_always_inline to make
sure that none of the uses result in compilation errors.
There is however a regression in this patch for llvm, since it reverts
the llvm expectation that __GNUC_STDC_INLINE__ or __GNUC_GNU_INLINE__
definition imply proper extern inline semantics.

[BZ #17266]
* libio/stdio.h: Check definition of __fortify_function
instead of __extern_always_inline to include bits/stdio2.h.
* math/bits/math-finite.h [__USE_XOPEN || __USE_ISOC99]: Also
check if __extern_always_inline is defined.
[__USE_MISC || __USE_XOPEN]: Likewise.
[__USE_ISOC99] Likewise.
* misc/sys/cdefs.h (__fortify_function): Define only if
__extern_always_inline is defined.
[!__cplusplus || __GNUC_PREREQ (4,3)]: Revert to defining
__extern_always_inline and __extern_inline only for g++-4.3
and newer or a compatible gcc.
README for libm-test math test suite
====================================
The libm-test math test suite tests a number of function points of
math functions in the GNU C library. The following sections contain a
brief overview. Please note that the test drivers and the Perl script
"gen-libm-test.pl" have some options. A full list of options is
available with --help (for the test drivers) and -h for
"gen-libm-test.pl".
What is tested?
===============
The tests just evaluate the functions at specified points and compare
the results with precomputed values and the requirements of the ISO
C99 standard.
Besides testing the special values mandated by IEEE 754 (infinities,
NaNs and minus zero), some more or less random values are tested.
Files that are part of libm-test
================================
The main file is "libm-test.inc". It is platform and floating point
format independent. The file must be preprocessed by the Perl script
"gen-libm-test.pl". The results are "libm-test.c" and a file
"libm-test-ulps.h" with platform specific deltas.
The test drivers test-double.c, test-float.c, test-ldouble.c test the
normal double, float and long double implementation of libm. The test
drivers with an i in it (test-idouble.c, test-ifloat.c,
test-ildoubl.c) test the corresponding inline functions (where
available - otherwise they also test the real functions in libm).
"gen-libm-test.pl" needs a platform specific files with ULPs (Units of
Last Precision). The file is called "libm-test-ulps" and lives in
platform specific sysdep directory.
How can I generate "libm-test-ulps"?
====================================
To automatically generate a new "libm-test-ulps" run "make regen-ulps".
This generates the file "math/NewUlps" in the build directory. The file
contains the sorted results of all the tests. You can use the "NewUlps"
file as the machine's updated "libm-test-ulps" file. Copy "NewUlps" to
"libm-test-ulps" in the appropriate machine sysdep directory. Verify
the changes, post your patch, and check it in after review.
To manually generate a new "libm-test-ulps" file, first remove "ULPs"
file in the current directory, then you can execute for example:
./testrun.sh math/test-double -u --ignore-max-ulp=yes
This generates a file "ULPs" with all double ULPs in it, ignoring any
previously calculated ULPs, and running with the newly built dynamic
loader and math library (assumes you didn't install your build). Now
generate the ULPs for all other formats, the tests will be appending the
data to the "ULPs" file. As final step run "gen-libm-test.pl" with the
file as input and ask to generate a pretty printed output in the file
"NewUlps":
gen-libm-test.pl -u ULPs -n
Copy "NewUlps" to "libm-test-ulps" in the appropriate machine sysdep
directory.
Note that the test drivers have an option "-u" to output an unsorted
list of all epsilons that the functions have. The output can be read
in directly but it's better to pretty print it first.
"gen-libm-test.pl" has an option to generate a pretty-printed and
sorted new ULPs file from the output of the test drivers.
Contents of libm-test-ulps
==========================
Since libm-test-ulps can be generated automatically, just a few notes.
The file contains lines for maximal errors of single functions, like:
Function "yn":
idouble: 6
The keywords are float, ifloat, double, idouble, ldouble and ildouble
(the prefix i stands for inline).
Adding tests to libm-test.inc
=============================
The tests are evaluated by a set of special test macros. The macros
start with "TEST_" followed by a specification the input values, an
underscore and a specification of the output values. As an example,
the test macro for a function with input of type FLOAT (FLOAT is
either float, double, long double) and output of type FLOAT is
"TEST_f_f". The macro's parameter are the name of the function, the
input parameter, output parameter and optionally one exception
parameter.
The accepted parameter types are:
- "f" for FLOAT
- "b" for boolean - just tests if the output parameter evaluates to 0
or 1 (only for output).
- "c" for complex. This parameter needs two values, first the real,
then the imaginary part.
- "i" for int.
- "l" for long int.
- "L" for long long int.
- "F" for the address of a FLOAT (only as input parameter)
- "I" for the address of an int (only as input parameter)
