34 -- This generic package provides a target independent implementation of the
35 -- floating-point attributes that denote functions. The implementations here
36 -- are portable, but very slow. The runtime contains a set of instantiations
37 -- of this package for all predefined floating-point types, and these should
38 -- be replaced by efficient assembly language code where possible.

44 pragma Pure (Fat_Gen);
46 subtype UI is Integer;
47 -- The runtime representation of universal integer for the purposes of
48 -- this package is integer. The expander generates conversions for the
49 -- actual type used. For functions returning universal integer, there
50 -- is no problem, since the result always is in range of integer. For
51 -- input arguments, the expander has to do some special casing to deal
52 -- with the (very annoying!) cases of out of range values. If we used
53 -- Long_Long_Integer to represent universal, then there would be no
54 -- problem, but the resulting inefficiency would be annoying.

91 -- This function checks if the object of type T referenced by X
92 -- is valid, and returns True/False accordingly. The parameter is
93 -- passed by reference (access) here, as the object of type T may
94 -- be an abnormal value that cannot be passed in a floating-point
95 -- register, and the whole point of 'Valid is to prevent exceptions.
96 -- Note that the object of type T must have the natural alignment
97 -- for type T. See Unaligned_Valid for further discussion.
99 function Unaligned_Valid (A : System.Address) return Boolean;
100 -- This version of Valid is used if the floating-point value to
101 -- be checked is not known to be aligned (for example it appears
102 -- in a packed record). In this case, we cannot call Valid since
103 -- Valid assumes proper full alignment. Instead Unaligned_Valid
104 -- performs the same processing for a possibly unaligned float,
105 -- by first doing a copy and then calling Valid. One might think
106 -- that the front end could simply do a copy to an aligned temp,
107 -- but remember that we may have an abnormal value that cannot
108 -- be copied into a floating-point register, so things are a bit
109 -- trickier than one might expect.
111 -- Note: Unaligned_Valid is never called for a target which does
112 -- not require strict alignment (e.g. the ia32/x86), since on a
113 -- target not requiring strict alignment, it is fine to pass a
114 -- non-aligned value to the standard Valid routine.
