Controlling Floating Point Behavior
-----------------------------------
+.. _floating-point-environment:
+
+Accessing the floating point environment
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Many targets allow floating point operations to be configured to control things
+such as how inexact results should be rounded and how exceptional conditions
+should be handled. This configuration is called the floating point environment.
+C and C++ restrict access to the floating point environment by default, and the
+compiler is allowed to assume that all operations are performed in the default
+environment. When code is compiled in this default mode, operations that depend
+on the environment (such as floating-point arithmetic and `FLT_ROUNDS`) may
have
+undefined behavior if the dynamic environment is not the default environment;
for
+example, `FLT_ROUNDS` may or may not simply return its default value for the
target
+instead of reading the dynamic environment, and floating-point operations may
be
+optimized as if the dynamic environment were the default. Similarly, it is
undefined
+behavior to change the floating point environment in this default mode, for
example
+by calling the `fesetround` function.
+
Clang provides a number of ways to control floating point behavior, including
with command line options and source pragmas. This section
describes the various floating point semantic modes and the corresponding
options.
