Package: gcc-4.8 Version: 4.8.2-21 Severity: normal Consider the following code:
#define _GNU_SOURCE #include <stdio.h> #include <math.h> int main (void) { float sNaN = __builtin_nansf (""); double x = (double) sNaN; return issignaling(x); } It returns 1 on armel, but 0 on armel or other architectures. Quoting the IEEE Std 754 standard: "Under default exception handling, any operation signaling an invalid operation exception and for which a floating-point result is to be delivered shall deliver a quiet NaN." Given the soft float ARM code ignores exceptions and always provides a result, a float to double conversion of a signaling NaN should return a quiet NaN. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: armel (armv5tel) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-kirkwood Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
