I think I managed to find a bound were the transformation can be done without overflow harm, however I don't know about rounding problems, however Suppose we are handling double precision floats for now.

I don't think you can do it regardless of -ffast-math simply because it may change the semantics and we've generally assumed that if the optimization might produce results different from what you get with correctly rounded library functions, it should go under -funsafe-math-optimizations. One might try to figure out a way to split that option, to distinguish optimizations that might change correctly rounded result but keep errors small from optimizations that might produce results that are way off, or spurious exceptions, for some inputs. -- Joseph S.

I understand these are mathematical identities. But floating point arthmetic in a compiler isn't nearly that clean :-) We have to worry about overflows, underflows, rounding, and the simple fact that many floating point numbers can't be exactly represented. Just as an example, compare the results for x = 0x1.fp1023 I think sin(atan (x)) is well defined in that case. But the x*x isn't because it overflows. So I think this has to be somewhere under the -ffast-math umbrella. And the testing requirements for that are painful -- you have to verify it doesn't break the spec benchmark.

It's under the flag_unsafe_math_optimizations umbrella, but sure, a "proper" way to optimize this would be to further expand sqrt (x*x + 1) to fabs(x) + ...

Closes bug #86829 Description: Adds substitution rules for both sin(atan(x)) and cos(atan(x)). These formulas are replaced by x / sqrt(x*x + 1) and 1 / sqrt(x*x + 1) respectively, providing up to 10x speedup. This identity can be proved mathematically. Changelog: 2018-08-03 Giuliano Belinassi * match.pd: add simplification rules to sin(atan(x)) and cos(atan(x)). Bootstrap and Testing: There were no unexpected failures in a proper testing in GCC 8.1.0 under a x86_64 running Ubuntu 18.04.
