Standards and Goals
-------------------
- stdfix.h is specified in the `ISO/IEC TR 18037:2008 <https://www.iso.org/standard/51126.html>`_,
C extensions to support embedded processors .
- Its `specifications <https://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/c051126_ISO_IEC_TR_18037_2008.zip>`_.
- Our goal is to implement a complete set of math functions for fixed point
types, most of them are currently not included in the ISO/IEC TR
18037:2008 standard. Our math functions for fixed point types are modeled
after the C99/C23 math functions for floating point types.
---------------
Source location
---------------
- The main source for fixed-point functions is located at:
``libc/src/stdfix`` with subdirectories for internal implementations.
---------------------
Implementation Status
---------------------
Requirements
============
- In order to build LLVM libc to support fixed-point arithmetics, we need the
compiler to support the basic fixed-point types `_Fract` and `_Accum` in
C++.
- For the users to be able to use the generated headers, their compiler needs
to support `_Fract` and `_Accum` types in C or C++.
- This compiler support is checked at the beginning of
`libc/include/llvm-libc-macros/stdfix-macros.h <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/tree/main/libc/include/llvm-libc-macros/stdfix-macros.h>`_.
Predefined Macros
=================
- We use the macro `LIBC_COMPILER_HAS_FIXED_POINT` to specify whether the
compiler support the fixed-point types.
- Other predefined precision macros specified in section 7.18a.3 are defined
in `libc/include/llvm-libc-macros/stdfix-macros.h <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/tree/main/libc/include/llvm-libc-macros/stdfix-macros.h>`_
using the default configuration of `typical desktop processor` in section
A.3.
