Hi,
Can I use floating point operations inside the FreeBSD kernel version
4.7-stable? It used to be a policy not to use it for obvious performance
probelms.
Are there any known work arounds?
Like some standard efficient techniques to convert floating point
operations to fixed point operations
Thanks for your response.
My only concern is a square root operation I have to do. Is there some
standard routine that will do it for long long or else I can pull out some
code from gnu/i386/fpemul to do my computations.

You're not supposed to. I think this was the last time it was brought
up:
