NAME
matherr - SVID math library exception handling
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
int matherr(struct exception *exc);
extern _LIB_VERSION_TYPE _LIB_VERSION;
Link with -lm.
DESCRIPTION
Note: the mechanism described in this page is no longer supported by
glibc. Before glibc 2.27, it had been marked as obsolete. Since glibc
2.27, the mechanism has been removed altogether. New applications
should use the techniques described in math_error(7) and fenv(3). This
page documents the matherr() mechanism as an aid for maintaining and
porting older applications.
The System V Interface Definition (SVID) specifies that various math
functions should invoke a function called matherr() if a math exception
is detected. This function is called before the math function returns;
after matherr() returns, the system then returns to the math function,
which in turn returns to the caller.
To employ matherr(), the programmer must define the _SVID_SOURCE fea‐
ture test macro (before including any header files), and assign the
value _SVID_ to the external variable _LIB_VERSION.
The system provides a default version of matherr(). This version does
nothing, and returns zero (see below for the significance of this).
The default matherr() can be overridden by a programmer-defined ver‐
sion, which will be invoked when an exception occurs. The function is
invoked with one argument, a pointer to an exception structure, defined
as follows:
struct exception {
int type; /* Exception type */
char *name; /* Name of function causing exception */
double arg1; /* 1st argument to function */
double arg2; /* 2nd argument to function */
double retval; /* Function return value */
}
The type field has one of the following values:
DOMAIN A domain error occurred (the function argument was outside
the range for which the function is defined). The return
value depends on the function; errno is set to EDOM.
SING A pole error occurred (the function result is an infinity).
The return value in most cases is HUGE (the largest single
precision floating-point number), appropriately signed. In
most cases, errno is set to EDOM.
OVERFLOW An overflow occurred. In most cases, the value HUGE is re‐
turned, and errno is set to ERANGE.
UNDERFLOW An underflow occurred. 0.0 is returned, and errno is set
to ERANGE.
TLOSS Total loss of significance. 0.0 is returned, and errno is
set to ERANGE.
PLOSS Partial loss of significance. This value is unused on
glibc (and many other systems).
The arg1 and arg2 fields are the arguments supplied to the function
(arg2 is undefined for functions that take only one argument).
The retval field specifies the return value that the math function will
return to its caller. The programmer-defined matherr() can modify this
field to change the return value of the math function.
If the matherr() function returns zero, then the system sets errno as
described above, and may print an error message on standard error (see
below).
If the matherr() function returns a nonzero value, then the system does
not set errno, and doesn't print an error message.
Math functions that employ matherr()
The table below lists the functions and circumstances in which math‐
err() is called. The "Type" column indicates the value assigned to
exc->type when calling matherr(). The "Result" column is the default
return value assigned to exc->retval.
The "Msg?" and "errno" columns describe the default behavior if math‐
err() returns zero. If the "Msg?" columns contains "y", then the sys‐
tem prints an error message on standard error.
The table uses the following notations and abbreviations:
x first argument to function
y second argument to function
fin finite value for argument
neg negative value for argument
int integral value for argument
o/f result overflowed
u/f result underflowed
|x| absolute value of x
X_TLOSS is a constant defined in <math.h>

EXAMPLE
The example program demonstrates the use of matherr() when calling
log(3). The program takes up to three command-line arguments. The
first argument is the floating-point number to be given to log(3). If
the optional second argument is provided, then _LIB_VERSION is set to
_SVID_ so that matherr() is called, and the integer supplied in the
command-line argument is used as the return value from matherr(). If
the optional third command-line argument is supplied, then it specifies
an alternative return value that matherr() should assign as the return
value of the math function.
The following example run, where log(3) is given an argument of 0.0,
does not use matherr():
$ ./a.out 0.0
errno: Numerical result out of range
x=-inf
In the following run, matherr() is called, and returns 0:
$ ./a.out 0.0 0
matherr SING exception in log() function
args: 0.000000, 0.000000
retval: -340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000
log: SING error
errno: Numerical argument out of domain
x=-340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000
The message "log: SING error" was printed by the C library.
In the following run, matherr() is called, and returns a nonzero value:
$ ./a.out 0.0 1
matherr SING exception in log() function
args: 0.000000, 0.000000
retval: -340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000
x=-340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000
In this case, the C library did not print a message, and errno was not
set.
In the following run, matherr() is called, changes the return value of
the math function, and returns a nonzero value:
$ ./a.out 0.0 1 12345.0
matherr SING exception in log() function
args: 0.000000, 0.000000
retval: -340282346638528859811704183484516925440.000000
x=12345.000000
