GSoC 2024: Half-precision in LLVM libc
C23 defines new floating-point types, such as _Float16, which corresponds to the binary16 format from IEEE Std 754, also known as “half-precision,” or FP16. C23 also defines new variants of the C standard library’s math functions accordingly, such as fabsf16 to get the absolute value of a _Float16.
