Since f3218a8 ("softfloat: add floatx80 constants")
floatx80_infinity is defined but never used.
This patch updates floatx80 functions to use
this definition.
This allows to define a different default Infinity
value on m68k: the m68k FPU defines infinity with
all bits set to zero in the mantissa.

Currently float128_default_nan() returns 0xFFFF800000000000 in the
higher double word, but it should return 0x7FFF800000000000 which
is the correct higher double word for default qNAN on PowerPC.

Like the original MIPS, HPPA has the MSB of an SNaN set.
However, it has different rules for silencing an SNaN:
(1) msb is cleared and (2) msb-1 must be set if the fraction
is now zero, and (implementation defined) may be set always.
I haven't checked real hardware but chose the set always
alternative because it's easy and within spec.

Backports commit a7c04d545a97126c9df9d96623747d8613aaf7db from qemu
fpu/softfloat-specialize.h is the most critical file in SoftFloat
library, since it handles numerous differences between platforms in
relation to floating point arithmetics. This patch makes the code
in this file more consistent format-wise, and hopefully easier to
debug and maintain.
Backports commit a59eaea64686c8966b7653303660f8c26f285c77 from qemu
This patch modifies SoftFloat library so that it can be configured in
run-time in relation to the meaning of signaling NaN bit, while, at the
same time, strictly preserving its behavior on all existing platforms.
Background:
In floating-point calculations, there is a need for denoting undefined or
unrepresentable values. This is achieved by defining certain floating-point
numerical values to be NaNs (which stands for "not a number"). For additional
reasons, virtually all modern floating-point unit implementations use two
kinds of NaNs: quiet and signaling. The binary representations of these two
kinds of NaNs, as a rule, differ only in one bit (that bit is, traditionally,
the first bit of mantissa).
Up to 2008, standards for floating-point did not specify all details about
binary representation of NaNs. More specifically, the meaning of the bit
that is used for distinguishing between signaling and quiet NaNs was not
strictly prescribed. (IEEE 754-2008 was the first floating-point standard
that defined that meaning clearly, see [1], p. 35) As a result, different
platforms took different approaches, and that presented considerable
challenge for multi-platform emulators like QEMU.
Mips platform represents the most complex case among QEMU-supported
platforms regarding signaling NaN bit. Up to the Release 6 of Mips
architecture, "1" in signaling NaN bit denoted signaling NaN, which is
opposite to IEEE 754-2008 standard. From Release 6 on, Mips architecture
adopted IEEE standard prescription, and "0" denotes signaling NaN. On top of
that, Mips architecture for SIMD (also known as MSA, or vector instructions)
also specifies signaling bit in accordance to IEEE standard. MSA unit can be
implemented with both pre-Release 6 and Release 6 main processor units.
QEMU uses SoftFloat library to implement various floating-point-related
instructions on all platforms. The current QEMU implementation allows for
defining meaning of signaling NaN bit during build time, and is implemented
via preprocessor macro called SNAN_BIT_IS_ONE.
On the other hand, the change in this patch enables SoftFloat library to be
configured in run-time. This configuration is meant to occur during CPU
initialization, at the moment when it is definitely known what desired
behavior for particular CPU (or any additional FPUs) is.
The change is implemented so that it is consistent with existing
implementation of similar cases. This means that structure float_status is
used for passing the information about desired signaling NaN bit on each
invocation of SoftFloat functions. The additional field in float_status is
called snan_bit_is_one, which supersedes macro SNAN_BIT_IS_ONE.
IMPORTANT:
This change is not meant to create any change in emulator behavior or
functionality on any platform. It just provides the means for SoftFloat
library to be used in a more flexible way - in other words, it will just
prepare SoftFloat library for usage related to Mips platform and its
specifics regarding signaling bit meaning, which is done in some of
subsequent patches from this series.
Further break down of changes:
1) Added field snan_bit_is_one to the structure float_status, and
correspondent setter function set_snan_bit_is_one().
2) Constants <float16|float32|float64|floatx80|float128>_default_nan
(used both internally and externally) converted to functions
<float16|float32|float64|floatx80|float128>_default_nan(float_status*).
This is necessary since they are dependent on signaling bit meaning.
At the same time, for the sake of code cleanup and simplicity, constants
<floatx80|float128>_default_nan_<low|high> (used only internally within
SoftFloat library) are removed, as not needed.
3) Added a float_status* argument to SoftFloat library functions
XXX_is_quiet_nan(XXX a_), XXX_is_signaling_nan(XXX a_),
XXX_maybe_silence_nan(XXX a_). This argument must be present in
order to enable correct invocation of new version of functions
XXX_default_nan(). (XXX is <float16|float32|float64|floatx80|float128>
here)
4) Updated code for all platforms to reflect changes in SoftFloat library.
This change is twofolds: it includes modifications of SoftFloat library
functions invocations, and an addition of invocation of function
set_snan_bit_is_one() during CPU initialization, with arguments that
are appropriate for each particular platform. It was established that
all platforms zero their main CPU data structures, so snan_bit_is_one(0)
in appropriate places is not added, as it is not needed.

are under the base SoftFloat-2a license; changes from Stefan Weil
and RedHat employees are GPLv2-or-later; changes from Fabrice Bellard
are under the BSD license. Clarify this in the comments at the
top of each affected source file, including a statement about
the assumed licensing for future contributions, so we don't need
to remember to ask patch submitters explicitly to pick a license.

Revert the parts of commits b645bb4885 and 5a6932d51d which are still
in the codebase and under a SoftFloat-2b license.
Reimplement support for architectures where the most significant bit
in the mantissa is 1 for a signaling NaN rather than a quiet NaN,
by adding handling for SNAN_BIT_IS_ONE being set to the functions
which test values for NaN-ness.
This includes restoring the bugfixes lost in the reversion where
some of the float*_is_quiet_nan() functions were returning true
for both signaling and quiet NaNs.
[This is a mechanical squashing together of two separate "revert"
and "reimplement" patches.]
