+// This is an algorithm for log(x) in single precision which is correctly
+// rounded for all rounding modes, based on the implementation of log(x) from
+// the RLIBM project at:
+// https://people.cs.rutgers.edu/~sn349/rlibm
+
+// Step 1 - Range reduction:
+//   For x = 2^m * 1.mant, log(x) = m * log(2) + log(1.m)
+//   If x is denormal, we normalize it by multiplying x by 2^23 and subtracting
+//   m by 23.
+
+// Step 2 - Another range reduction:
+//   To compute log(1.mant), let f be the highest 8 bits including the hidden
+// bit, and d be the difference (1.mant - f), i.e. the remaining 16 bits of the
+// mantissa. Then we have the following approximation formula:
+//   log(1.mant) = log(f) + log(1.mant / f)
+//               = log(f) + log(1 + d/f)
+//               ~ log(f) + P(d/f)
+// since d/f is sufficiently small.
+//   log(f) and 1/f are then stored in two 2^7 = 128 entries look-up tables.
+
+// Step 3 - Polynomial approximation:
+//   To compute P(d/f), we use a single degree-5 polynomial in double precision
+// which provides correct rounding for all but few exception values.
+//   For more detail about how this polynomial is obtained, please refer to the
+// paper:
+//   Lim, J. and Nagarakatte, S., "One Polynomial Approximation to Produce
+// Correctly Rounded Results of an Elementary Function for Multiple
+// Representations and Rounding Modes", Proceedings of the 49th ACM SIGPLAN
+// Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages (POPL-2022), Philadelphia,
