Re: i387 Floating Point Unit (FPU) testing

Hi,

The kernel contains some i387 FPU emulation code.
Is there any user land software to test the FPU emulation code?

I would like to be able to prove the correctness of the FPU emulation code in the Linux kernel, and also port the test program to other platforms that utilize FPU emulation. For example, DOS emulators like DOSBOX.

The i387 FPU emulation code is originally from DJGPP, I believe.
