I don't see why the current denormal-fp-math setting behavior is a blocking issue for this change. Yes, compiling a shared library with ffast-math would lead to the "denormal-fp-math" attribute being set to a potentially misleading value, but that's already true for any file that is compiled with -ffast-math if the file containing the entry function isn't compiled with -ffast-math. I'd see fixing that as a separate issue. I'd like to see this change land, but with the "-mdaz-ftz" option removed (because I don't think it's useful). That would fix the critical problem of fast-math infecting shared libraries with the ftz setting, and we could straighten out the other problems, which are relatively minor, afterwards. https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/80475 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
