What is `openlibm`

OpenLIBM is an effort to have a high quality standalone LIBM library. It is meant to be used standalone in applications and programming language implementations. The OpenLIBM code derives from the FreeBSD msun implementation, which in turn derives from FDLIBM 5.3. As a result, it has a number of fixes and updates that have accumulated over the years in msun, and also optimized assembly versions of many functions. openlibm 0.5.3 12.fc34 x86_64 106 k openlibm-0.5.3-12.fc34.src.rpm fedora High quality system independent, open source libm https BSD and MIT and ISC and Public Domain OpenLIBM is an effort to have a high quality standalone LIBM library.
