This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same way, while a new target named params has been added. This new target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of printing it on the console. - Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org) get getservbyport() out of the inner loop Change-Id: Ie6ad5226fa2621ff9f0dee8782ea48f9443d2091

.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In math.h
|
|
.Ft double
|
|
.Fn nextafter "double x" "double y"
|
|
.Ft float
|
|
.Fn nextafterf "float x" "float y"
|

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn nextafter ,
|
|
.Fn nextafterf ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn nextafterl
|
|
functions return the next machine representable number from
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
in direction of
|
|
.Fa y .
|
|
In other words, if
|
|
.Fa y
|
|
is less than
|
|
.Fa x ,
|
|
the functions return the largest representable floating-point number less than
|
|
.Fa x .
|
|
When
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
equals
|
|
.Fa y ,
|
|
the value of
|
|
.Fa y
|
|
is returned.
|
|
The three functions differ only in the type of the return value and
|
|
.Fa x .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn nexttoward
|
|
function is equivalent to the
|
|
.Fn nextafter
|
|
family of functions with two exceptions:
|
|
.Bl -enum -offset indent
|
|
.It
|
|
The second parameter has a type
|
|
.Vt long double .
|
|
.It
|
|
The return value is
|
|
.Fa y
|
|
converted to the type of the function, provided that
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
equals
|
|
.Fa y .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon successful completion, the described functions return
|
|
the next representable floating-point value as described above.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
is finite but an overflow would occur,
|
|
a range error follows and the functions return
|
|
.Dv \*(Pm\*HHUGE_VAL ,
|
|
.Dv \*(Pm\*HHUGE_VALF ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv \*(Pm\*HHUGE_VALL
|
|
with the same sign as
|
|
.Fa x .
|
|
When either
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
or
|
|
.Fa y
|
|
is \*(Na, a \*(Na is returned.
|
|
When
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
is not
|
|
.Fa y
|
|
but the function value is subnormal, zero, or underflows,
|
|
a range error occurs, and either 0.0 or the correct function
|
|
value (if representable) is returned.
