Joseph Myers fcd6b5ac36 Fix strtod overflow detection (bug 23279).
As shown by bug 23279, strtod's round_and_return has an off-by-one
error in its overflow detection, only counting an exponent greater
than MAX_EXP as overflowing when an exponent of MAX_EXP also means
overflow (recall the ISO C definition of DBL_MAX_EXP etc. is based on
a floating-point model where 2^exp is multiplied by a value in the
interval [0.5, 1), so 2^MAX_EXP is not representable).

For decimal arguments to strtod, a separate overflow check in the main
implementation covers the case where the integer part of the argument
(truncated to the nearest integer towards zero) has more than MAX_EXP
bits, meaning that this issue in round_and_return only affects cases
(arguments with absolute value strictly between the maximum
representable value and 2^MAX_EXP) where overflow depends on the
rounding mode; in such cases, the returned value would still have been
correct on overflow but without the overflow exception being raised or
errno being set to ERANGE.  For hex float arguments, however, other
cases can arise, as shown in bug 23279, where a value with exponent
already set to MAX_EXP is passed into round_and_return and a result
can wrongly end up being NaN, or infinity instead of the largest
finite value.

This patch fixes the off-by-one error, adds testing of overflow
exceptions to the tst-strtod-round framework, and adds tests of these
issues.

Tested for x86_64.  Also ran the tst-strtod-round tests for powerpc to
make sure the new tests didn't introduce any new failures for IBM long
double.

	[BZ #23279]
	* stdlib/strtod_l.c (round_and_return): Handle an exponent of
	MAX_EXP as overflowing.
	* stdlib/gen-tst-strtod-round.c (string_to_fp): Clear MPFR
	overflow flag.
	(round_str): Output also whether result overflows in each rounding
	mode.
	* stdlib/tst-strtod-round-data: Add more tests.
	* stdlib/tst-strtod-round-data.h: Regenerated.
	* stdlib/tst-strtod-round-skeleton.c (_XNTRY): Update comment.
	(TEST): Handle extra arguments for overflow flags.
	(struct test_overflow): New type.
	[!FE_OVERFLOW] (FE_OVERFLOW): Define to 0.
	(GEN_ONE_TEST): Clear all exceptions.  Test overflow flag.
	(test_in_one_mode): Take argument with overflow information.
	(do_test): Update calls to test_in_one_mode.

README

This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library.
See the file "version.h" for what release version you have.

The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems,
and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system.  It provides the
system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such
as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming
languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system.

In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to
implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications.
In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers.

The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the
GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu.

When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library
requires Linux kernel version 3.2 or later.

Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be
installed for the pthread library to work correctly.

The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels:

	aarch64*-*-linux-gnu
	alpha*-*-linux-gnu
	arm-*-linux-gnueabi
	hppa-*-linux-gnu
	i[4567]86-*-linux-gnu
	x86_64-*-linux-gnu	Can build either x86_64 or x32
	ia64-*-linux-gnu
	m68k-*-linux-gnu
	microblaze*-*-linux-gnu
	mips-*-linux-gnu
	mips64-*-linux-gnu
	powerpc-*-linux-gnu	Hardware or software floating point, BE only.
	powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu	Big-endian and little-endian.
	s390-*-linux-gnu
	s390x-*-linux-gnu
	riscv64-*-linux-gnu
	sh[34]-*-linux-gnu
	sparc*-*-linux-gnu
	sparc64*-*-linux-gnu

If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc
maintainers; see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more
information.

See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install
the GNU C Library.  You might also consider reading the WWW pages for
the C library at http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/.

The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual
found in the `manual/' subdirectory.  The manual is still being updated
and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not
have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like.  For
corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component,
following the bug-reporting instructions below.  Please be sure to check
the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has
already been corrected.

Please see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting
information.  We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports.
This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly.

The GNU C Library is free software.  See the file COPYING.LIB for copying
conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require
these additional notices to be distributed.  License copyright years may be
listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in
the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed
individually.
