Respect the FCSR exception mask when interpreting the IEEE 754 exception condition to report with SIGFPE in `si_code', so as not to use one that has been masked where a different one set in parallel caused the FPE hardware exception to trigger. As per the IEEE Std 754 the Inexact exception can happen together with Overflow or Underflow. Signed-off-by: Maciej W. Rozycki <> --- linux-mips-fpe-except-mask.diff
