[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] target-ppc: use float32_is_any_nan()

[Aurelien Jarno]

Use the new function float32_is_any_nan() instead of
float32_is_quiet_nan() || float32_is_signaling_nan().

I frankly have very little knowledge of FP stuff. Is any_nan really equal to quiet_nan || signaling_nan or would it cover more cases?

It is exactly equivalent -- all NaNs are either signalling or quiet.

(If you want to check this you don't need to know anything about floating
point, all three functions are just acting on 32 bit values so you could
in theory identify all the bit patterns they return true or false on...)

Yeah, reading on through the FP parts of the spec I realized that too :). Thanks for the clarification.

If you were looking for other cleanups, this could stand a
maybe_silence_nan.
