What do they actually test, why do they use these assumptions?

As I understand it, floating point values should not be compared
without some kind of accuracy/precision factor. Zero idea about the
best reference for how to do it correctly, but here is a random one:

Suggestion needed on test failures due to double arithmetics

2021-11-24 Thread Giulio Paci 
Dear mentors,
  while updating SCTK package I enabled the execution of the test suite
which was previously disabled. The tests are working fine on x86_64
architecture, but a couple of them are failing on i386.
After investigation [1] I found out that tests are failing because they
rely on the assumptions that, when a and b have the same double value:
1) "a < b" is false;
2) "a - b" is 0.0.
Unfortunately, these assumptions do not always hold on i386 as the behavior
of those operators seem to change according to compilation flags (e.g.,
optimization or debug flags) or the surrounding instructions (e.g., if a
function is invoked nearby or not).

I think the reason for this behavior is probably related to gcc
options -mfpmath
[2] and -ffloat-store [3]. Using -ffloat-store option indeed seems to fix
the issue.

However I am wondering:
1) if enabling -ffloat-store is an acceptable solution;
2) if this is a compiler bug (I always expect approximated results with
double arithmetics, but the above assumptions seem very basic to me,
considering that they cover the special case where a and b are equal);
3) what is the most appropriate solution.

Do you have any suggestion?

I just asked the same question upstream, but I would appreciate your
opinion as well.

Bests,
Giulio
