https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=216865 Li-Wen Hsu <lwhsu@FreeBSD.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Resolution|--- |FIXED Status|New |Closed CC| |lwhsu@FreeBSD.org --- Comment #1 from Li-Wen Hsu <lwhsu@FreeBSD.org> --- The imprecise powl() implementation in lib/msun/src/imprecise.c, which simply delegated to pow() (double precision), was replaced by a long double algorithm. In src 123afd01341cc509893fea71afcc90b7b3b668b4 (2018-07-15), full-precision powl() implementations were imported from OpenBSD and added as lib/msun/ld80/e_powl.c and lib/msun/ld128/e_powl.c. The stub in imprecise.c was removed at the same time. Subsequently, imprecise.c itself was disconnected from the build entirely in src d47b524eadb5a87506fe6ae03febbf72fad2ee06 . -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
