Programming :: Operator For Floating Point Comparison?

May 10, 2011

I know it is wrong to use the "==" operator to compare the equality of two floating point numbers. Logically it would seem that if the "==" operator is not usable for floating point comparison, then the "<=" operator would also not be usable. Is this true? The lack of google search results on this topic made me think that it must be true. If that is true, then is it true that the only way to compare floats with <= or >= is with something like the code below? Code: bool smaller_than_or_equal(float a, float b) {

if ( fabs(a-b) < EPSILON){return true;}
else if (a < b) {return true;}
else {return false;}

} I think this is a general question, but if specifics are necessary, I am using the C++ language to code at the moment.

Programming :: IEEE Floating Point Format?

Jun 5, 2011

I'm reading a book on assembly, and it talks a bit about the IEEE floating point format.

Quote:

To summarize, the following steps are used to convert a decimal number to IEEE single format: 1. The leading bit of the floating point format is 0 for a positive number and 1 for a negative number. 2. Write the unsigned number in binary. 3. Write the binary number in binary scientific notation f23.f22 ... f0 2^e, where f23 = 1. There are 24 fraction bits, but it is not necessary to write trailing 0's. 4. Add a bias of 127 to the exponent e. This sum, in binary form, is the next 8 bits of the answer, following the sign bit. (Adding a bias is an alternative to storing the exponent as a signed number.) 5. The fraction bits f22f21 ... f0 form the last 23 bits of the floating point number. The leading bit f23 (which is always 1) is dropped.

Programming :: Asm 64bit Registers - "64-bit Linux Allows Up To Fourteen Parameters To Be Transferred In Registers (6 Integer And 8 Floating Point)."

Mar 28, 2010

I have tried to learn how 64bit asm (nasm in my case) works and found, among the many disparate pieces of info on the net, a few vague inferences that floating point registers can be used for other purposes than what they are intended for, example: "64-bit Linux allows up to fourteen parameters to be transferred in registers (6 integer and 8 floating point)." This would be fantastic for string operations/manipulation (I have never used asm for floating-point operations), can anyone shed a bit of light?

Ubuntu :: Pidgin Floating Point Exception?

Feb 18, 2010

pidgin started crashing today for no apparent reason. It just shutdowns. No freezing or anything, it just goes away, disappears. From what I can say, there's no specific trigger for this, it can happen after 2 or 10 min after I started it. Once it even shutdown right 10seconds. I tried to run it from the terminal. When I do that, the only thing that appears before closing is

Ubuntu :: Gnome-terminal: Floating Point Exception?

May 27, 2011

This is the first time I post a question on these forums My problem is as follows: I can't start gnome-terminal from the Applications->Accesories menu or from the Alt+F2 application launcher. I get a "Starting Terminal" in the task-bar that disappears after a few seconds and no terminal. I'm pretty sure there is something I did, but I can't really figure out what it is.

The things I've tried so far:

1. I used synaptic to remove and reinstall gnome-terminal. That didn't work
2. Started Xterm and tried to run "gnome-terminal". This is where it gets weird for me:

a. running the command as normal user I get a "Floating point exception" error and obviosly no terminal
b. when I do "sudo gnome-terminal" and enter the root password I get, as expected, a root terminal. I could live with that, but it's not ideal.

When I try to mount /dev/sda1 I get 'floating point exception' as a response, and it won't mount.

I've never had that message returned from mount, and I can't find any reference to it.

Software :: Make G++ Compile In Floating Point Support?

Apr 14, 2011

One of those odd things I learned the hard way is that if you are writing a shared object (library/.so) and any programs that will link to that library uses floating point numbers, the library must be compiled as if it uses floating point numbers. What that really means is, you need to declare at least one float in the source for the library or when the caller connects and tries to run code in the library, the process aborts.I end up putting a float pi (3.1415); in the code and getting an unused variable warning all the time. There has to be a simpler way, some flag to pass to g++ that says, "include floating point support even if you don't really need to."

p.s. Gosh I hope I remembered this correctly. I encountered this problem doing a multi-platform build for Windows and Linux. This COULD be a VC++ problem that I just carried into Linux by using the same source.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: WinFF Won't Start Up Floating Point Exeption?

Mar 17, 2011

Just updated WinFF to version 1.3.2-1.1. Since then it won't start up any more due to a floating point exeption. System: OpenSUSE 11.4 (x86) + KDE 4.6.0 Debug info:

WARNING] Out of OEM specific VK codes, changing to unassigned
[WARNING] Out of unassigned VK codes, assigning $FF

I had the same error with earlier versions of WinFF in earlier versions of OpenSUSE. Then I could fix it by changing the KDE window styles. The error also occurs with the WinFF qt-version.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: DVD9 To DVD5 Floating Point Exception?

Oct 14, 2010

I have been trying to convert a DVD9 to DVD5 using the following steps

1)Rip the DVD title(s) to harddisk with DVD:RIP in a project folder. This created VOB files of the the movie and the soundtrack you picked.

2)Concatenate (merge) the VOB files into one by running in a console: cat *.vob > movie.vob

3)demutliplex movie.vob and get the M2V and AC3 files out of there. tcextract -i movie.vob -t vob -x mpeg2 > movie.m2v

4)tcextract -i movie.vob -a 0 -x ac3 -t vob > movie.ac3

5)I then shrank the movie.m2v tcrequant -i movie.m2v -o shrinked.m2v -f 1.5

Programming :: Force Two Process To Run On The Same CPU?

Jan 11, 2011

I'm programming a software system that consists of multiple processes. It is programmed in C++ under Linux. and they communicate among them using Linux shared memory.

Usually, in software development, is in the final stage when the performance optimization is made. Here I came to a big problem. The software has high performance requirements, but in machines with 4 or 8 CPU cores (usually with more than one CPU), it was only able to use 3 cores, thus wasting 25% of the CPU power in the first ones, and more than 60% in the second ones. After many, many research, and having discarded mutex and lock contention, I found out that the time was being wasted on shmdt/shmat calls (detach and attach to shared memory segments). After some more research, I found out that these CPUs, which usually are AMD Opteron and Intel Xeon, use a memory system called NUMA, which basically means that each processor has its fast, "local memory", and accessing memory from other CPUs is expensive.

After doing some tests, the problem seems to be that the software is designed so that, basically, any process can pass shared memory segments to any other process, and to any thread in them. This seems to kill performance, as process are constantly accessing memory from other processes.

Now, the question is, is there any way to force groups of process to execute in the same CPU?. I don't mean to force them to execute always in the same processor, as I don't care in which one they are executed, but that would do the job. Ideally, there would be a way to tell the kernel: If you schedule this process in one processor, you must also schedule this "brother" process (which is the process with which it communicates through shared memory) in that same processor, so that performance is not penalized.

Programming :: Force Repetitive Library Search Using G++ V3.2 On 3.9?

Sep 2, 2009

I have an application with a complex binary build procedure which links against 30+ application library archives and an array of system library archives. The problem I'm having is the link ordering. Is there a way to tell the g++ linker to keep searching the libraries for unresolved references, regardless of order, instead of rearranging the order the archives are listed on the command line for a one-time-pass? I'm using g++ 3.2.3 on a Linux AS v3update6 machine.

Programming :: How To Force Scons To Use Cross Compiler

Feb 3, 2010

I have a large existing codebase that all compiles under Ubuntu 8.04 with g++ using Scons. I've been given the task of getting it to compile for Arm9 running uclinux. I have a arm-elf-g++ compiler that I need to use instead of the gcc version. I ended up borking my /usr/lib/scons/SCons/Tool/g++.py file to use arm-elf-g++ instead of g++, but I know that this is not correct, as I have to go edit that file every time I change compilers.

These are the 2 lines I switch out:
Code:
compilers = ['arm-elf-g++']
#compilers = ['g++']

I simply can not find anywhere in the scons documentation that indicates how to tell it to use a different compiler. It seems that it would go under "Environment" but beyond that I'm lost. The CPPPATH variable seems like it only tells scons where to find #include files. I suppose I could rename arm-elf-g++ to g++ and just set my path to find that one first, but that seems like a bit of a hack as well. It would also break other things on my machine.
