summarizes the behavior of SPARC64 V floating-point hardware depending on FSR.NS.

Note – The result and behavior of SPARC64 V of the shaded column in the tables Table B-5 and Table B-6 conform to IEEE754-1985 standard.

Note – Throughout Table B-5 and Table B-6, lowercase exception conditions such as nx, uf, of, dv and nv are nontrapping IEEE 754 exceptions. Uppercase exception conditions such as NX, UF, OF, DZ and NV are trapping IEEE 754 exceptions.

1.One of the operands is a denormalized number, and the other operand is a normal or a denormalized number (non- zero, non-NaN, and non-infinity).

2.The result before rounding turns out to be a denormalized number.

3.Dmin = denormalized minimum.

4.If the FPop is either FADD{s,d}, or FSUB{s,d} and the operation is 0 ± denormalized number, SPARC64 V does not generate an unfinished_FPop and generates a result according to IEEE754-1985 standard.

5.Nmax = normalized maximum.
