[LLVMdev] Inlining sqrt library function in X86

[Gurd, Preston]

Thanks for the fix!

However, there still seems to be a problem in that if you pass  –ffast-math to clang, then clang changes “sqrt” to be “__sqrt_finite”. LLVM cannot then change the function call into an x86 sqrt instruction, even with –fno-math-errno set.

Can you suggest where I might look in the clang code to find the place where “sqrt” is converted to “__sqrt_finite” and/or the best way to solve this problem?

Thanks,

Preston

Does fast-math imply no-math-errno ?

Yes, in both GCC and Clang. Clang does have some annoying logic bugs surrounding this flag though. For example, setting -fno-fast-math would imply no-math-errno, overriding the Linux default. Quite weird. I've cleaned this up some and added more clear tests in r182203.
