...und, the denomral control flags will be left in their default state. There is also a CUDA-specific option, -f[no-]cuda-flush-denormals-to-zero. I don't know how this is implemented, but the documentation says it is specific to CUDA device mode. Finally, there is an OpenCL-specific option, -cl-denorms-are-zero. Again, I don't know how it is implemented. So.... I'd like to talk about how we can corral all of this into some interface that is consistent (or at least consistently sensible) across architectures. The problems I see are: 1. -fdenormal-fp-math needs to handle all scenarios ne...

Our processor also has some issues regarding the handling of denormals - scalar and vector - and we ran into a related problem only a few days ago. The v3.8 compiler has done a lot of good work on optimisations for floating-point math, but ironically one of them broke our implementation of 'nextafterf'. The desired code fragment (FP32) is: float xAbs = fabsf(x); since we know our

Hi Jeff, Hi Jean-Marc, I first modified the FPU control word to raise an exception whenever a denormal is used. Then I used the debugger to locate the exceptions and added VERY_SMALLs where they seem to fit well. Although I got CPU usage as low as 10%, I seriously lack knowledge of how things work inside speex. So just changing some code is not the best idea for me. My second attempt was to

IEEE-754R defines a normal floating point number as: 2.1.38 normal number: For a particular format, a finite non-zero floating-point number with magnitude greater than or equal to a minimum bemin value, where b is the radix. Normal numbers can use the full precision available in a format. In this standard, zero is neither normal nor subnormal. This implies that a denormal is not a normal number.

Hi, > James, is that a correct assessment? Yes, it is also my belief that the only way ARMv7 NEON differs from IEEE754 is lack of denormal support.

Hello R users, My problem is that the data I've got is in the minimum number of columns with each ward (geographic area) appearing multiple times. The first 30 terms look like this > HHum02 CASW Btype Yr CO2Group NumVeh 170597 00CCFA CARS 2002 C 2 170598 00CCFA CARS 2002 D 2 170599 00CCFA CARS 2002 E 22 170600 00CCFA CARS 2002

I am building a relatively trivial application to try to learn my way around Rails. I am having difficulty understanding how to navigate a heavily denormalized hierarchy. Could someone direct me to a bare-bones explanation of using rails to navigate database hierarchies? I am an experienced developer. Most of my work has been desktop client server, high performance, or server to server

Hal, James, My plan to disable vectorization on NEON FP had two steps: 1. Create the infrastructure to detect unsafe FP maths and force NEON FP via fast-math. 2. Use -mfpmath=neon/sse to fine-tune the flags even further, but this needs a lot of work in IR. The expected behaviour is to have most performance with least options, but with correctness in mind. So, we can't vectorize FP loops

Hi, I''m new to RoR and exploring its use with an existing application. One thing I can''t seem to find much detail on is using database triggers. All RoR examples and tutorials I''ve seen are very basic saving data back to a single table. My use case includes a somewhat denormalized DB that uses triggers to store data in multiple tables on occassion. I currently

Hi Mark, Code below: int16_t* samples; int16_t* fbSilenceFrame; void *fSpeexState; float eng(0.f); int speexFrameSize(0); speex_encoder_ctl(speexState, SPEEX_GET_FRAME_SIZE, &speexFrameSize); for (int i = 0; i < speexFrameSize; i++) { eng += samples[i] * samples[i]; } if (eng / speexFrameSize < 3.f) { memcpy(samples, silenceFrame, speexFrameSize * sizeof(int16_t)); } where

With FMA formation and without non-IEEE-compliant optimizations (i.e. fast-math), the optimized answer should be identical to the non-optimized answer. What about architectures that this is never respected, like Darwin? In the general
