27.Os
28.Sh NAME
29.Nm fegetround ,
30.Nm fesetround
31.Nd floating-point rounding control
32.Sh LIBRARY
33.Lb libm
34.Sh SYNOPSIS
35.In fenv.h
36.Fd "#pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON"
37.Ft int
38.Fn fegetround void
39.Ft int
40.Fn fesetround "int round"
41.Sh DESCRIPTION
42The
43.Fn fegetround
44function determines the current floating-point rounding mode,
45and the
46.Fn fesetround
47function sets the current rounding mode to
48.Fa round .
49The rounding mode is one of
50.Dv FE_TONEAREST , FE_DOWNWARD , FE_UPWARD ,
51or
52.Dv FE_TOWARDZERO ,
53as described in
54.Xr fenv 3 .
55.Sh RETURN VALUES
56The
57.Fn fegetround
58routine returns the current rounding mode.
59The
60.Fn fesetround
61function returns 0 on success and non-zero otherwise;
62however, the present implementation always succeeds.
63.Sh SEE ALSO
64.Xr fenv 3 ,
65.Xr fpgetround 3 ,
66.Xr fpsetround 3
67.Sh STANDARDS
68The
69.Fn fegetround
70and
71.Fn fesetround
72functions conform to
73.St -isoC-99 .
74.Sh HISTORY
75These routines first appeared in
76.Fx 5.3 .
77They supersede the non-standard
78.Xr fpgetround 3
79and
80.Xr fpsetround 3
81functions.
