It could be so. I tried to call _FPU_SETCW(0), since that's what the old _FPU_DEFAULT was. That fails with i386, maybe I should have used the macro definition like _FPU_IEEE instead.

I have impression that fpu_control.h has the same interface for all HW
platforms, so conditional compilation is not required.

Re: [MeeGo-dev] ARM RunFast by default in glibc

Here's a patch to arm build of eglibc 2.10 that does it. I had to modify
some packages to pass their testsuites. One of the packages was mpfr, the
float tests will fail with RunFast mode.

In arm case the _FPU_IEEE mode is different from the default mode, which
does not have the FPU exceptions set on.

Any code that calls this _FPU_SETCW should also be #ifdef __arm__.

Yes, we have. Juha could provide it. The best outcome: using standard
glibc interface we could turn it to FAST/IEEE mode
_FPU_SETCW(_FPU_IEEE);

Turning back to run fast could be done by _FPU_SETCW(_FPU_DEFAULT);

No problems discovered during testing.

With best wishes, Leonid

Hi (ARM toolchain group mostly)

Do we have a patch for glibc-2.11-12-g24c0bf7 and/or glibc-2.12.1 that
enables ARM RunFast[1] mode by default anywhere? Would be good to push
it along with hardfp while we're at it and getting things tested
through.

Best regards, Carsten Munk
