      math: use double_t for temporaries to avoid stores on i386 · e216951f
      Szabolcs Nagy 提交于
      When FLT_EVAL_METHOD!=0 (only i386 with x87 fp) the excess
      precision of an expression must be removed in an assignment.
      (gcc needs -fexcess-precision=standard or -std=c99 for this)
      
      This is done by extra load/store instructions which adds code
      bloat when lot of temporaries are used and it makes the result
      less precise in many cases.
      Using double_t and float_t avoids these issues on i386 and
      it makes no difference on other archs.
      
      For now only a few functions are modified where the excess
      precision is clearly beneficial (mostly polynomial evaluations
      with temporaries).

      math: add a non-dummy tgamma implementation · 0f53c1a4
      Szabolcs Nagy 提交于
      uses the lanczos approximation method with the usual tweaks.
      same parameters were selected as in boost and python.
      (avoides some extra work and special casing found in boost
      so the precision is not that good: measured error is <5ulp for
      positive x and <10ulp for negative)
      
      an alternative lgamma_r implementation is also given in the same
      file which is simpler and smaller than the current one, but less
      precise so it's ifdefed out for now.
