[llvm-commits] [LLVMdev] [PATCH] fast-math patches!

[Joe Abbey]

Though semantically equivalent in this case, however I think you should use logical ors here not bitwise.

+  bool any() {
+    return UnsafeAlgebra | NoNaNs | NoInfs | NoSignedZeros |
+      AllowReciprocal;
+  }

Gripe:  This pattern is probably super fast and has precedence… but the code is non-obvious:

SubclassOptionalData =
	(SubclassOptionalData & ~BitToSet) | (B * BitToSet);

This is likely one iota slower.. but it sure is easier to get the intent.

B ? SubclassOptionalData |=  BitToSet : 
    SubclassOptionalData &= ~BitToSet;

Otherwise looks good to me.
