Floating point exceptions are also broken, they always behave like
masked, even if you unmask some explicitly with fpsetmask().
Even worse, a wrong result is returned if an exception had to be
thrown, while the result is right for masked exceptions.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <machine/floatingpoint.h>
int main(void)
{
fpsetmask(0);
fprintf(stderr, "I want no exception, but an exception value\n");
fprintf(stderr, "res: %g\n", atof("1.0") / atof("0.0"));
fpsetmask(FP_X_INV|FP_X_DNML|FP_X_DZ|FP_X_OFL|FP_X_UFL);
fprintf(stderr, "I want an exception. Or at least an exceptional value\n");
fprintf(stderr, "res: %g\n", atof("1.0") / atof("0.0"));
fprintf(stderr, "I didn't get one!\n");
return 0;
}
output on -current:
I want no exception, but an exception value
res: Inf
I want an exception. Or at least an exception value
res: 1
I didn't get one!
output on anything else:
I want no exception, but an exception value
res: Inf
I want an exception. Or at least an exception value
Floating point exception (core dumped)
