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

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

91 -- This function checks if the object of type T referenced by X

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.

101 function Unaligned_Valid (A : System.Address) return Boolean;
102 -- This version of Valid is used if the floating-point value to
103 -- be checked is not known to be aligned (for example it appears
104 -- in a packed record). In this case, we cannot call Valid since
105 -- Valid assumes proper full alignment. Instead Unaligned_Valid
106 -- performs the same processing for a possibly unaligned float,
107 -- by first doing a copy and then calling Valid. One might think
108 -- that the front end could simply do a copy to an aligned temp,
109 -- but remember that we may have an abnormal value that cannot
110 -- be copied into a floating-point register, so things are a bit
111 -- trickier than one might expect.
113 -- Note: Unaligned_Valid is never called for a target which does
114 -- not require strict alignment (e.g. the ia32/x86), since on a
115 -- target not requiring strict alignment, it is fine to pass a
116 -- non-aligned value to the standard Valid routine.

126 -- problems with this inlining in optimized mode, and in any case it seems
127 -- better to avoid this inlining (space and robustness considerations).
