+ <longdescription lang="en">
+ 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.
+ OpenLibm also includes the AMOS library from Netlib, which is a
+ portable package for Bessel Functions of a Complex Argument and
+ Nonnegative Order. AMOS contains subroutines for computing Bessel
+ functions and Airy functions.
+ 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.
