--- Begin Message ---Package: libc6 Version: 2.7-6 Severity: normal File: glibc On arm, compiling the following code with gcc-4.2 gives different results depending on whether the flag -ansi is passed: #include <float.h> #include <ieee754.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdint.h> #include <stdlib.h> int main(void) { union ieee754_double val; uint64_t bits; val.d = DBL_MAX; bits = ((uint64_t) val.ieee.negative) << 63 | ((uint64_t) val.ieee.exponent) << 52 | ((uint64_t) val.ieee.mantissa0) << 32 | ((uint64_t) val.ieee.mantissa1); printf("%llx\n", bits); exit(EXIT_SUCCESS); } the good: $ gcc-4.2 test-double.c $ ./a.out 0x7fefffffffffffff the bad: $ gcc-4.2 -ansi test-double.c $ ./a.out 0xffffffff7fefffff i.e. the words are flipped around. In a conversation on #debian-arm, pbrooks noted that the tests in file ieee754.h whether to flip the mantissa bits (which is necessary on arm) depends on BIG_ENDIAN, instead of __BIG_ENDIAN. Defining BIG_ENDIAN as __BIG_ENDIAN makes the code print out the expected result. This seems to be an upstream issue, too. A fix could be to patch sysdeps/ieee754/ieee754.h to use __BIG_ENDIAN everywhere. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: arm (armv5tejl) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-versatile Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libc6 depends on: ii libgcc1 1:4.3-20080127-1 GCC support library libc6 recommends no packages. -- debconf information excluded
