Usman Roshan <usman@xxxxxxxxxxxx> asks on Sat, 14 Oct 2006 09:23:53 -0400 (EDT) about 128-bit floating-point arithmetic on AMD64 processors.
On those systems, we have C/C++/Fortran compilers from GNU, Intel, PathScale, Portland Group, and Sun, plus tcc and lcc. The latter two generate only IA-32 code. None of these compilers provides 128-bit floating-point arithmetic on this platform.
Several of those Fortran compilers support 128-bit floating point in software.
