Re: [Qemu-devel] [Bug 645662] x87 fpu emulation not accurate enough

Hi,

The goal of the project is to fix the bug. Sorry I should have been more
clear.

This bug has been around for 7+ years now. Qemu switched to softfloat and
it did not fix this. I think its most likely caused by Qemu's internal
representation not being accurate enough or accuracy lost during
conversion. However this is basically what is given to us in the bug
report, and I have not been able to make much progress past this point, so
we are asking for help.

Hi,

I have the same problem here with some of our math testsuites.
It's about some precision issue with trigonometric tests.

I didn't had time to figure out what happen neither what is
really going wrong. eg: trigonometric function or?

A quick workaround is to use KVM when possible.
