From ff069f024ae8cf15d53429e034d67ddcece0f67a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joseph Myers Date: Fri, 15 May 2015 17:21:08 +0000 Subject: Fix lgammaf spurious underflows (bug 18220). The flt-32 implementation of lgammaf produces spurious underflow exceptions for some large arguments, because of calculations involving x^-2 multiplied by small constants. This patch fixes this by adjusting the threshold for a simpler computation to 2**26 (the error in the simpler computation is on the order of 0.5 * log (x), for a result on the order of x * log (x)). Tested for x86_64 and x86. [BZ #18220] * sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32/e_lgammaf_r.c (__ieee754_lgammaf_r): Use 2**26 not 2**58 as threshold for returning x * (log (x) - 1). * math/auto-libm-test-in: Add another test of lgamma. * math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated. --- math/auto-libm-test-in | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'math/auto-libm-test-in') diff --git a/math/auto-libm-test-in b/math/auto-libm-test-in index c4bfe7439c..2a88403aa7 100644 --- a/math/auto-libm-test-in +++ b/math/auto-libm-test-in @@ -1757,6 +1757,7 @@ lgamma 0.5 lgamma -0.5 lgamma 0.7 lgamma 1.2 +lgamma 0x3.8p56 lgamma 0x1p-5 lgamma -0x1p-5 lgamma 0x1p-10 -- cgit v1.2.3
