Avoid raising unexpected floating point exceptions in libm
When using clang with x86_64 CPUs that support AVX, some floating point transformations may raise exceptions that would not have been raised by the original code. To avoid this, use the -fp-exception-behavior=maytrap flag, introduced in clang 10.0.0. In particular, this fixes a number of test failures with ctanhf(3) and ctanf(3), when libm is compiled with -mavx. An unexpected FE_INVALID exception is then raised, because clang emits vdivps instructions to perform certain divides. (The vdivps instruction operates on multiple single-precision float operands simultaneously, but the exceptions may be influenced by unused parts of the XMM registers. In this particular case, it was calculating 0 / 0, which results in FE_INVALID.) If -fp-exception-behavior=maytrap is specified however, clang uses vdivss instructions instead, which work on one operand, and should not raise unexpected exceptions. Reported by: olivier Reviewed by: arichardson PR: 254911 Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D29686 (cherry picked from commit 3b00222f156dca5700c839d73e36daf479fa640c) Only use -fp-exception-behavior=maytrap on x86, for now After 3b00222f156d, it turns out that clang only supports strict floating point semantics for SystemZ and x86 at the moment, while for other architectures it is still experimental. Therefore, only use -fp-exception-behavior=maytrap on x86 for now, otherwise this option results in "error: overriding currently unsupported use of floating point exceptions on this target [-Werror,-Wunsupported-floating-point-opt]" on other architectures.
