This is a little bit of a departure from softfloat's original approach
as we skip the estimate step in favour of a straight iteration. There
is a minor optimisation to avoid calculating more bits of precision
than we need however this still brings a performance drop, especially
for float64 operations.

As cpu.h is another typically widely included file which doesn't need
full access to the softfloat API we can remove the includes from here
as well. Where they do need types it's typically for float_status and
the rounding modes so we move that to softfloat-types.h as well.
As a result of not having softfloat in every cpu.h call we now need to
add it to various helpers that do need the full softfloat.h
definitions.

The main culprit here is bswap.h which pulled in softfloat.h so it
could use the types in its CPU_Float* and ldfl/stfql functions. As
bswap.h is very widely included this added a compile dependency every
time we touch softfloat.h. Move the typedefs for each float type into
their own file so we don't re-build the world every time we tweak the
main softfloat.h header.

Power ISA 3.0 introduces a few quadruple precision floating point
instructions that support round-to-odd rounding mode. The
round-to-odd mode is explained as under:
Let Z be the intermediate arithmetic result or the operand of a convert
operation. If Z can be represented exactly in the target format, the
result is Z. Otherwise the result is either Z1 or Z2 whichever is odd.
Here Z1 and Z2 are the next larger and smaller numbers representable
in the target format respectively.
Backports commit 9ee6f678f473007e252934d6acd09c24490d9d42 from qemu
All operations that take a floatx80 as an operand need to have their
inputs checked for malformed encodings. In all of these cases, use the
function floatx80_invalid_encoding to perform the check. If an invalid
operand is found, raise an invalid operation exception, and then return
either NaN (for fp-typed results) or the integer indefinite value (the
minimum representable signed integer value, for int-typed results).
For the non-quiet comparison operations, this touches adjacent code in
order to pass style checks.
Backports cast correction portion of commit d1eb8f2acba579830cf3798c3c15ce51be852c56m 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.
