Subject: expm1 ulps
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you test glibc on i686 with GCC 4.3, you get a test-ildoubl failure:
|
||
|
|
||
|
Failure: Test: expm1 (1) == M_El - 1.0
|
||
|
Result:
|
||
|
is: 1.71828182845904523532e+00 0xd.bf0a8b14576953500000p-3
|
||
|
should be: 1.71828182845904523543e+00 0xd.bf0a8b14576953600000p-3
|
||
|
difference: 1.08420217248550443401e-19 0x8.00000000000000000000p-66
|
||
|
ulp : 1.0000
|
||
|
max.ulp : 0.0000
|
||
|
Maximal error of `expm1'
|
||
|
is : 1 ulp
|
||
|
accepted: 0 ulp
|
||
|
|
||
|
What happens is that the inline expansion of expm1l uses __builtin_expm1l,
|
||
|
and GCC 4.3 optimizes calls to __builtin_expm1l with constant argument to
|
||
|
a correctly rounded result using MPFR. The result returned is thus the
|
||
|
value of e-1 rounded once to long double precision. However, the test
|
||
|
expects M_El - 1.0, and the result of rounding e to long double precision,
|
||
|
then subtracting 1, differs in the last place from the result of rounding
|
||
|
e-1 to long double precision (the latter has smaller exponent, and the
|
||
|
last bit is 1).
|
||
|
|
||
|
There are two obvious approaches possible to fixing this. The first patch
|
||
|
below changes the expectation to a decimal expansion for e-1 (taken from
|
||
|
that of M_El) rather than doing arithmetic in the expected value. This in
|
||
|
turn requires ulps to be set for the out-of-line version of expm1. It
|
||
|
might also need ulps to be set for the inline version for older compilers
|
||
|
if they should continue to pass the test, and possibly for other targets.
|
||
|
The second patch below takes the alternative approach of keeping the
|
||
|
existing expectation (which has the wrong bit in the last place) and
|
||
|
setting ulps for the inline expansion of expm1, which avoids the risk of
|
||
|
breaking the test for other targets.
