Use the plain 'int' type rather than 'int_fast16_t' for handling
exponents. Exponents don't need to be exactly 16 bits, so using int16_t
for them would confuse more than it clarified.
This should be a safe change because int_fast16_t semantics
permit use of 'int' (and on 32-bit glibc that is what you get).

Use the plain 'int' type rather than 'int_fast16_t' for shift counts
in the various shift related functions, since we don't actually care
about the size of the integer at all here, and using int16_t would
be confusing.
This should be a safe change because int_fast16_t semantics
permit use of 'int' (and on 32-bit glibc that is what you get).
Backports commit 07d792d2b08669bf6a97cbf590496078c4621068 from qemu
Replace the int8 softfloat-specific typedef with int8_t.
This change was made with
find include hw fpu target-* -name '*.[ch]' | xargs sed -i -e 's/\bint8\b/int8_t/g'
together with manual removal of the typedef definition, and
manual undoing of various mis-hits.
Backports commit 8f506c709adb7d3bed4ebefefe9487c156192a64 from qemu
The code in the softfloat source files is under a mixture of
licenses: the original code and many changes from QEMU contributors
are under the base SoftFloat-2a license; changes from Stefan Weil
and RedHat employees are GPLv2-or-later; changes from Fabrice Bellard
are under the BSD license. Clarify this in the comments at the
top of each affected source file, including a statement about
the assumed licensing for future contributions, so we don't need
to remember to ask patch submitters explicitly to pick a license.
Backports commit 16017c48547960539fcadb1f91d252124f442482 from qemu
This commit applies the changes to master which correspond to
replacing commit 158142c2c2df with a set of changes made by:
* taking the SoftFloat-2a release
* mechanically transforming the block comment style
* reapplying Fabrice's original changes from 158142c2c2df
This commit was created by:
diff -u 158142c2c2df import-sf-2a
patch -p1 --fuzz 10 <../relicense-patch.txt
(where import-sf-2a is the branch resulting from the changes above).
