F. APPENDIX B

IEEE Std 754-1985 Requirements for

SPARC V9

The IEEE Std 754-1985 floating-point standard contains a number of implementation dependencies.

Please see Appendix B of Commonality for choices for these implementation dependencies, to ensure that SPARC V9 implementations are as consistent as possible.

Following is information specific to the SPARC64 V implementation of SPARC V9 in these sections:

Traps Inhibiting Results on page 61

Floating-Point Nonstandard Mode on page 61

B.1 Traps Inhibiting Results

Please refer to Section B.1 of Commonality.

The SPARC64 V hardware, in conjunction with kernel or emulation code, produces the results described in this section.

B.6 Floating-Point Nonstandard Mode

In this section, the hardware boundary conditions for the unfinished_FPop exception and the nonstandard mode of SPARC64 V floating-point hardware are discussed.
